About This Novel

The object of study in this book - the Minister of War of the Sui Dynasty in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, is an important official system under the three provinces and six ministries system. As one of the six departments of the Ministry of War, the Book of War has existed in history for more than 1,500 years. The content studied in this book is the history of the formation, establishment and finalization of the Book of War. The first appearance of the Book of the Ministry of War (the Book of Five Soldiers) was in the Cao Wei Dynasty, but it is difficult to find relevant records in existing historical materials, so the study of this book began in the Western Jin Dynasty. During the Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties, although the names "Minister of the Ministry of War" and "Minister of the Ministry of War" could also be seen in some political regimes, they mainly existed under the names of "Minister of the Five Arms" and "Minister of the Seven Arms". After the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, it inherited the "Ministry of War" related systems of the Northern Qi and Northern Zhou Dynasties, established a complete system of ministers of the Ministry of War, and was inherited by the Tang Dynasty. The comprehensive adjustment of the six departments and twenty-four departments of the Ministry of War in the Sui Dynasty established a more mature and complete system of the Ministry of War. Some of the four departments of the Ministry of War inherited from the Five or Seven Ministers of the Army in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and some inherited from other departments. As the highest military administrative agency in ancient China (after the Wei and Jin Dynasties), the Minister of War was responsible for important responsibilities such as military attache election and military service recruitment, weapons manufacturing management, and land and resources control. It was a pivotal department in the bureaucracy.
