Songtsän Gampo's minister, Myang Mangpoje (Myang Mang-po-rje Zhang-shang), defeated the Sumpa people ca. 627. Six years later (c. 632–33) Myang Mangpoje was accused of treason and executed. He was succeeded by minister Gar Songtsän (Mgar-srong-rtsan).
The young Songtsen Gampo also had the support and protection of the powerful minister Myang Mangpoje until he himself was able to take over the work of imperial expansion.
