I saw many book friends saying that there are too many Sima and they can’t tell the difference.
There are still people who are confused about official positions at this time, so I will post a single chapter to give a brief introduction.
Going by prefecture one by one, the time is at the end of the second year of Tai'an (303) of Emperor Hui of Jin in the current book.
(1) Jizhou: Sima Ying, King of Chengdu.
In the first month of the ninth year of Yuankang (299) 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 was 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 Affairs Wang Jun took office.
It is unclear who the governor was, but it may be 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.
The governor Shi Zhan or Shi Kan, different historical records have different records, I tend to be Shi Kan - everyone knows the problems of 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.
In the first year of Yongkang (300), there was no change.
In the first year of Yongning (301), there was no change. In April, Sima Yong was promoted to Taiwei.
In the first year of Tai'an (302), there was no change.
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 the governor of Qingzhou" 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 raised troops to fight against the rebellion. Sima Hui was appointed as 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's unclear who the governor will be after he leaves. It may be Sima Gai who takes charge of both.
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: Gaomi King Sima Lue/Xinye King Sima Xin/Liu Hong
In the ninth year of Yuankang (299), General Annan and Commander-in-Chief of Miannan Military Sima Lue 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 "summoned chariots and riders to pay homage", but failed to attend and was killed. The three Yi tribesmen were killed.
Also in the first month, Meng Guan was appointed as the general of Pingnan and supervised the military affairs in the north. Later, he was killed and the three Yi tribes were killed.
So far, the two governors of Jingzhou (the governor of Jingzhou and the governor of Wancheng) were both killed for the crime of Sima Lun's gang members.
In the first month of the first month, Sima Xin was appointed Nan Zhonglang General, and in the second month he was appointed General Zhennan and Commander-in-Chief of all military affairs in Jingzhou.
Yang Yi was appointed as General Pingnan and Commander-in-Chief of all military affairs in the north of the Yangtze River (Zhenwan City).
The governor of Jingzhou this year was Song Dai (some historical records record him as Zong Dai, 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 central Shu 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 in his old age, 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 General of the Southern Campaign, Commander-in-Chief of all military affairs in Jingzhou, and Governor of Jingzhou.
Sima Shi, the king of Pengcheng, was appointed as Nanzhonglang general and held Wancheng.
In Jingzhou, you just finished singing and I came on stage, and no one stayed there for a long time.
(6) Yangzhou: King Qiao Sima Sui/Liu Zhun.
Before the first year of Yongning (301), Sima Yun, the 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 paid homage to 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 Sui died. 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.
At this point, Liu Zhun served as governor for two years.
(7) Xuzhou: Sima Zhu, King of Dongping.
In August of the first year of Yongning (301), Sima Zhu was appointed as General Pingdong and Commander-in-Chief of Xuzhou Military Town Xiapi.
There is no examination of the history of the governorship, and it is possible that Sima Mao also took charge.
In the first year of Tai'an (302), the governor was Sima Zhu, 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 of this era is difficult to describe in one sentence.
Forget about blanks, contradictions and errors are the biggest problems. Some states and counties don’t even have complete county names. Can you believe it? Haha.
Regarding the same war, 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, which is helpless.
