Reversing the Song: Is There No One Left in the Realm?

I don't understand why historical texts need to be written systematically?

1. "Taiwei" in the Song Dynasty was not an actual position, but a rank/honorary title The "Taiwei" in the Song Dynasty, after the Zongzheng and the restructuring of the Song Dynasty, was the highest level of military officer (the second rank). It was an honorary "official rank" and was not a specific official position. It only represents your military attache grade and treatment, and does not directly correspond to any position in the three yamen. For example, Gao Qiu in "Water Margin", his actual position is the commander of the palace (palace commander). Just because his official rank reached Taiwei, he was respectfully called "Gao Taiwei", but "Taiwei" itself is not his position. 2. The "head of the three yamen" is the commander of the capital in front of the palace, not the Taiwei The three yamen of the Song Dynasty (the palace in front of the palace, the horse guard and infantry department) are the highest management agencies of the imperial army. Their top officers are: - Dianqian Si: the commander of the palace in front of the palace (the highest status, commonly known as "the palace commander") - Ma Junsi: Commander of the Ma Army (Ma Shuai) - Infantry Division: Commander of the Infantry (Bu Shuai) These three positions are the actual highest officers of the three yamen, and they are collectively called the "Three Commanders", not the "Taiwei". 3. The real "first person in the military" in the Song Dynasty was actually the Privy Council Officer (mostly civilian officials) The Song Dynasty implemented a military system of "using civility to suppress military power", and military power was split: - Privy Council: in charge of military status, tiger symbols (power to mobilize troops), most of the officers were civilian officials, and their status was higher than that of the three Yamen - San Yamen: Responsible for the daily training and management of the army (the power to command troops), but does not have the power to mobilize troops So even if he is the commander in front of the palace, he is not the "first person in the military". The highest institution that really manages troops is the Privy Council, not the San Yamen, let alone the false title of "Taiwei". 2. Supplement: Why is there such a misunderstanding? - In folk and literary works of the Song Dynasty, high-ranking military officers were often addressed as "Taiwei". For example, Gao Qiu and Tong Guan in "Water Margin" were both called this, which led many people to mistakenly believe that "Taiwei" was the highest official position for military generals in the Song Dynasty. - Many of the officers of the three yamen (Dian Commander, Horse Commander, Bu Commander) can indeed be promoted to Taiwei, so it is easy to confuse "official rank" and "position".

I have tried it. There are too few historical novels that meet my taste. This one is eye-catching. I look forward to more content.

I've read six chapters so far and I think the writing is good.

There are female characters worthy of attention

Please read, and everyone is welcome to follow my works and send out red envelopes regularly.

Write to a bigger place and don't wander around in this 3-acre piece of land 🙂
