후한시대(後漢時代) 내군(內郡) 군병(郡兵)의 존재와 운용- 후한(後漢) 광무제(光武帝)의 도위관(都尉官) 폐지의 실상

Abstract

I proved that there were still military forces of interior commanderies after the abolition of interior commandary commadant in the period of Emperor Guangwu’s reign. It was commonly accepted that the abolition of interior commandary commadant meant the dissolution of interior commanderies’s troops. I attested that there were still military forces of interior commanderies enumerating facts in illustration of commandeering interior commanderies’s troops to suppress many uprisings in many regions. I also analyzed the command of lacal troops called junbing. I made a classification between military forces of interior commanderies and that of frontier commanderies based on historical examples of appointing commandary commadants and commandary governor’s aide(changshi). The interior commandaries were in the provinces such as national capital region called Sili, Yuzhou, Jizhou, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Qingzhou, forty one commanderies in all. There were eighteen interior commanderies’ troops commandeered by the government of Later Han Dynasty, which was the proof of their existence after the abolition of interior commandary commadant in the reign of the founder of Later Han Dynasty. There were also security and military officers commanding commandary or prefecture troops called wenxiadudaozei, mounted official, budaozhi, left zeicaoyuan, right zeicao, zhubingshi, quannongzeibuyuan, zeibuyuan, zuiguzeibuyuan, menxiayoujiao, menxia zeicao, which proved the existence of military forces in commandary or prefecture. The chief commanders directing army to suppress the insurgent troops were forty nine local govermnent officials and generals, or seventy royal inspectors appointed by the emperor. The latter was dispatched because they were believable confidants and the emperor wanted to control the local government officials and military soldiers. I insisted that cishi, i.e., the provincial inspector in Later Han Dynasty was not local governor but the inspector or agent of central government appointed by the emperor. And it is not true that cishi acted as local provincial governor not provincial governor by commanding local troops and directing commandary or prefecture officials.
