Chapter 44: Governors and Governors of various states (1)
I saw many book friends saying that there were too many Sima and I couldn’t tell them apart.
There are still people who are confused about official positions at this time. I will post a single chapter to briefly introduce it.
Come by state one by one, the time is at the end of the second year of Tai'an (303) of Emperor Hui of Jin Dynasty currently in the book.
(1) Jizhou: Chengdu Wang Sima Ying.
In the first month of the ninth year of Yuankang (299), the ninth year of Emperor Hui of the Jin Dynasty, Sima Yong, the governor of Jizhou and the king of Hejian, changed the town to Guanzhong. Sima Ying, the king of Chengdu, became the general of Pingbei, the governor of Yecheng, and the general of Xunjia Zhenbei.
The governor is Yang Huai.
In the first year of Yongkang (300), Sima Ying's official position remained the same, and the governor was replaced by Li Yi.
In the first year of Yongning (301), Sima Ying raised an army to fight against the rebellion, and returned to the town under the command of the general. The governor is still Li Yi.
In the first year of Tai'an (302), there was no change and everything was calm.
In the second year of Tai'an (303), Sima Ying's official position remained the same, and the governor was replaced by the later general Wen Xian.
At this point, Sima Ying has been in office for five years.
(2) Youzhou: Wang Jun.
In the first year of Yongkang (300), Liu Hong became Shangshu, and General Ning Shuo and Commander-in-Chief of Youzhou Military Wang Jun took office.
It is unclear who the governor was, but it may have been Wang Jun.
In the first year of Yongning (301), there was no change. In April, Wang Jun entered General Anbei.
In the first year of Tai'an (302), Wang Jun was the governor.
Shi Zhan or Shi Kan, the governor, is recorded differently in different historical books. I prefer Shi Kan - everyone knows the problems with history books at this stage. There are many errors and inconsistencies.
In the second year of Tai'an (303), Wang Jun was the governor. Shi Kan "returned the general (Sima Ying) to the right of Sima", and He Yan took over as the governor.
At this point, Wang Jun has been in office for four years.
(3) Yongzhou: Sima Yong, king of Hejian.
In the first month of the ninth year of Yuankang (299), Sima Yong left Yecheng and changed the town to Chang'an.
There is no examination of the history of the governor, and it is possible that Sima Yong was also in charge.
The first year of Yongkang (300), no changes.
The first year of Yongning (301), no changes. In April, Sima Yong was promoted to Taiwei.
The first year of Tai'an (302), no changes.
In the second year of Tai'an (303), Sima Yong's official position remained the same. The governor Liu Chen.
At this point, Sima Yong has been in office for five years.
(4) Yuzhou: Sima Jiong, King of Qi, and Sima Gai, King of Fanyang.
In the first year of Yongkang (300), Wang Jun "returned Qingzhou to be the governor" and "sought to reform Youzhou". In August, Sima Jiong was appointed General Pingdong and Commander-in-Chief of the military town of Xuchang in Yuzhou.
He Xu, the governor.
In March of the first year of Yongning (301), Sima Jiu launched an army to fight against the rebellion. Sima Gai was appointed General Annan and Commander-in-Chief of the military town of Xuchang in Yuzhou.
The governor He Xu also left with Sima Jiong and "became the leader".
It is unclear who the governor will be after he leaves. It may be Sima Gai who is also in charge.
In the first year of Tai'an (302), there was no change.
In the second year of Tai'an (303), Sima Hui marched against General Nan. At this point, Sima Hui has been in office for nearly three years.
The governor of this year was Weiyuan General Liu Qiao.
(5) Jingzhou: Sima Lue, King of Gaomi/Sima Xin, King of Xinye/Liu Hong
In the ninth year of Yuankang (299), Sima Lue, the general of Annan and the governor of all military affairs in Miannan, took office.
The governor Liu Biao.
In the first year of Yongkang (300), Sima Lue changed the town to Qingzhou. Sun Qi, General Pingnan and Commander-in-Chief of Jingzhou's military affairs, took office.
In the first month of the first year of Yongning (301), Sun Qi "called for chariots and riders", but he did not go and was killed, and the Yi tribe was killed.
Also in the first month, Meng Guan was appointed as the general of Pingnan and supervised the military affairs of Mianbei. He was later killed and the three Yi tribes were killed.
At this point, the two governors of Jingzhou (the governor of Jingzhou and the governor of Wancheng) were both killed for the crime of Sima Lun's party members.
In the first month of the first month, Sima Xin was appointed Nan Zhonglang General. In the second month, he was appointed as the General of Zhennan and the commander-in-chief of all the military affairs in Jingzhou.
Yang Yi was appointed as General Pingnan and Commander-in-Chief of all military affairs in Jiangbei (Zhenwan City).
The governor of Jingzhou this year was Song Dai (some historical records record it as Zong Dai. Copy it wrong? Speechless).
In the first year of Tai'an (302), the official positions of Sima Xin, Yang Yi and Song Dai remained the same.
In May of the second year of Tai'an (303), because most of the soldiers from Jingzhou were sent to Sichuan to quell the rebellion, Sima Xin and Yang Yi were both killed by Zhang Chang, the leader of the rebel army.
In May, Song Dai died. He should have died at the end of his life, but I don't know whether he died in Jingzhou or Shuzhong, because he went to Shuzhong to quell the chaos.
In June, Liu Hong was appointed as the general of the Southern Conquest, the commander-in-chief of all military affairs in Jingzhou, and the governor of Jingzhou.
Sima Shi, King of Pengcheng, was appointed Nanzhonglang General and Zhenwancheng.
In Jingzhou, I will appear on the stage after you sing, and no one will stay in charge for a long time.
(6) Yangzhou: Qiao Wang Sima Sui/Liu Zhun.
Before the first year of Yongning (301), Sima Yun, King of Puyang, served as the governor of Yangzhou for a long time. In this year, Sima Sui, the king of Qiao, took over and was appointed as General Andong and Commander-in-Chief of Yangzhou's military affairs.
In the first month of this year, Xi Long worshiped the governor of Yangzhou. Because he was a member of Zhao Wang Sima Lun's party, he was attacked and killed, and both his father and son died.
Chen Hui took over as governor.
In the first month of the first year of Tai'an (302), Sima followed him. Liu Zhun was appointed as the general who conquered the east and the commander-in-chief of all military affairs in Yangzhou.
In the second year of Tai'an (303), Liu Zhun and Chen Hui's official positions remained as before.
So far, Liu Zhun has been the governor for two years.
(7) Xuzhou: Sima Mao, King of Dongping.
In August of the first year of Yongning (301), Sima Zhu served as General Pingdong and Commander-in-Chief of Xuzhou Military Town Xiapi.
There is no examination of the history of the governor, and it may be that Sima Mao also took charge.
In the first year of Tai'an (302), the governor was Sima Mao, and the governor was the champion general Zhou Fu.
In the second year of Tai'an (303), the commander-in-chief Sima Zhu entered the Wei general, and the governor was still Zhou Fu.
I have finished writing about the seven major prefectures and the eight major metropolitan areas. I am tired. (2) I will write it later.
To make a complaint, the history books of this era are difficult to describe in one sentence.
Forget it if it is blank, contradictions and errors are the biggest problems. Some states and counties don’t even have complete county names. Can you believe it? Haha.
The same is true for wars. I feel that there are more historical materials preserved in the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms than in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. I feel helpless.
