Yang Zhi's escort of Hua Shigang's junior military attache was nothing more than a third-class envoy according to the practice at that time. It is about equivalent to an officer from company level to battalion level.
The name of the province of the "control ambassador" or the control ambassador (a government official with a higher rank than the Anfu ambassador). But there is no military post of "restraint ambassador", which should be fabricated.
Some people say that according to Liang Zhongshu's teaching and reading order, the system is between Ying Yong Shi and Du Du Du, but I don't know that Ying Yong Shi and Du Du Du in Water Margin are also misused. "Ambassador Yong Lian" (and "Yong Lian" are two different things) did have its name, but it was not a real occupation in the Song Dynasty. You should always be a senior official with five grades, and Yao Jun is an honorary position without grades.
The title of military attache in Song Dynasty was mistaken for the real duty in Tang Dynasty in Water Margin. "DuDu" may refer to the commander-in-chief, who is to be sent after the art of war, and is the deputy commander and senior commander of the control system, equivalent to the deputy commander or corps commander of the Northern Song Dynasty. If the "commander" is really higher than the commander, and the incumbent is close to the level of "Ambassador of Yong Lian" in the horizontal direction, how can it be that there is only a "lieutenant colonel and deputy regiment level" as some people say?
In fact, if you are in charge of the leading department, you will generally serve as a general or vice president, and the seven-product secretary will lead the subordinates. In the novel, the supervisor and the commander are higher than the special envoy Ying Yong, higher than the "commander", and the size is reversed. There are even non-existent military posts, such as the commander and deputy commander.

Other official positions in the Water Margin:
First, coach?
Existence. There was a coach in the early Song Dynasty, that is, the martial arts coach in the army, who was filled by a military attache with outstanding martial arts. The popularity of coaches is the result of religious sects teaching reading and strengthening military training. Besides coaches, there are all coaches, instigators and training officials. The head coach and the head coach are both unqualified military attaché s, that is to say, they are above the level of military attaché s and small envoys, while the training officers are above the level of big envoys.
It can be seen that the "coach" is the lowest-level coach, nothing more than the ten princes under the old military system, the leader of the new army system, and the flag-raising level is very humble. In the Song Dynasty, there was a fundamental difference between officials and officials. Officers are called "officials" and military attaches are called "people"; The promotion of officers can be called "transfer of officers", and officers can only be called "transfer of capital".
The number of coaches is also quite large. For example, in the second year of Yuanfeng's teaching in Kaifeng, Dabaochang used 270 imperial coaches. The imperial army in the Song Dynasty did not refer to the central army or even the imperial army, but to combat troops engaged in military training, which were distributed all over the country.
Xiang army gradually evolved into a miscellaneous soldier who was divorced from military training. Both have lost the original intention of "prohibition" and "compartment". The so-called "800,000 imperial troops" refers to the 800,000 national combat troops in the Injong period, which is nothing special, but only 400,000 to 500,000 in the Hui Zong period.
"Water Margin" undoubtedly raised the actual position of the coach in the Song Dynasty. Some people call it "lieutenant colonel and deputy regiment level", which is very inappropriate. The coach is equivalent to the deputy platoon leader at most. Compared with Lin Chong, Xu Ning, as the head coach of the Guard Class, has a higher status with royal equipment and may be the special envoy of Class 3.
Second, jurisdiction.
Fictitious Song Shi? "Official History" has "Worship Ningzhong, promote the military forces, rule Jia Bing, and be a minister. Train the army and supervise the arrest of thieves to clear the territory. " Therefore, some people say that the "mention of jurisdiction" in Water Margin is "mention of armor".
The military attache is even a "platoon leader." Very wrong! "Chen Shou" refers to the governors of Zhifu and Zhiming counties, some of whom also serve as road managers/peace messengers. In the Song Dynasty, civil servants generally served as military chiefs of railways and countries-general manager of railways (deployment), and secretary of railways and countries.
It is under the jurisdiction of money, and some roads are hosted by the state, and the military attache is the deputy. The predecessors called it "Du", that is, the origin of "Du Jian". The so-called "promoting the army" and "promoting the army" are all part-time jobs. Therefore, if "promoting governance" means "promoting governance", it is not the official position of a low-level military attache, but a civil servant at Daozhou level, which is equivalent to the category of general manager, supervision and custody.
The "ruling power" that a junior officer like Lu Da can casually promote can only be a fictional military position. Since it does not exist, how can there be corresponding modern military posts and ranks? There was indeed a magistrate in the Song Dynasty, but he was an official, not an official. The novel may be influenced by the current officials in Song and Yuan Dynasties.
Small officials like Lu Da are generally small envoys at the last level of Do, and will not be too far away from Lin Chong. Sun Li and Suochao, both "promoting governance", seem to be commanding officers (one commanding 500 people) and eight ambassadors. The "command" in the book is a misuse, which will be mentioned later.
In addition, the "low-priced ambassador" refers to Ma. Hui Zong's Political Affairs and The Times were renamed Cheap Ambassadors. Abolished in the early Southern Song Dynasty. Responsible for the management/appeasement department of Li Lu, and change the low-cost visiting ambassador to no transfer. He was appointed as a third-class envoy or eunuch in charge of state affairs. Although nominally in a low position, it is actually monitoring the prison army set up by Shuai Si. Without the participation of the emperor himself and the Privy Council, those who are not closely related to the imperial court cannot be removed from office.
Most of the military attaché s are heroic children filled with Yin Bu. Therefore, although it is true that a junior military attache like Lu Da is a junior military attache, it is beyond his ability. Some people say that low-cost ambassador refers to economic ambassador (racial integration), and it is a big mistake to try to reread the original words and misinterpret them.
Third, Zhizhai
There is no such official position, but it may be another name for visiting the village. The "village" of Qingfeng Village undoubtedly refers to the inspector village, not the market town. So "Zhizhai" is not a mayor, but actually a policeman. The patrol department is a public security organ stationed at the township checkpoint in this county. Qingfeng Village should be the inspection department located in Qingfeng Town.
In Song Dynasty, county-level public security was divided into county commandant and patrol inspection department. The two are on an equal footing, and the county commandant is from the nine grades, and the governor makes the same position. The county commandant governs the county seat, and the village belongs to the inspection. You can count the villages in one county, or you can count a village in several counties. The public security personnel under the jurisdiction of the county commandant are called archers, and the inspection department is called soldiers, which is also reflected in the Water Margin.
Hire archers and recruit soldiers. After Zhezong, local people were employed, not soldiers (forbidden and Hunan soldiers) or militia (rural soldiers), but full-time public security personnel, who were transferred to the prison department (similar to the provincial public security department).
There are generally dozens to 200 people in the patrol inspection department village, which adopts the first-level establishment, similar to the current company level. There are 500 or 600 large individuals. (The plaque of "Zhizhai House" in TV series should be "XX Inspection Office" and "XX Inspection Village". )
Guan Sheng's "Pudong Inspection Office" is also listed here. However, judging from its ranking, it should be misused. Otherwise, his "inspection" refers to the inspection of military forces, detention and other official positions are different from Huarong Road.
Fourth, all heads?
Existence. The last level of the old military system in Song Dynasty was composed of four levels: Xiang, Jun, Ling and Du, with a total of 100 people. Ma Jun, the leader of the capital, is the military ambassador and deputy military commander, and the infantry is the head and deputy head. In addition to the imperial army and Xiang army, local soldiers also adopted the capital. Archers in the Northern Song Dynasty ranged from 10 to 50 according to the size of counties, generally less than the capital, and the leaders were ten generals and generals.
Song Wu, Zhu Tong, Lei Heng, etc. are the so-called captains of archers (police officers) of county commandants, and their status is lower than that of the imperial army and the Xiang army. While Zhu Tong and Lei Heng only brought dozens of people, but only the head of the section, not the head.
Moreover, in the Song Dynasty, there was no distinction between cavalry archers and infantry archers, and it was a Jin-Yuan system. In the Song Dynasty, those who had the title of "Ma Jun" must be the Imperial Army and the Xiang Army (Ma Jun may not have a horse in the Song Dynasty, but it is an identity). It is reasonable to say that the county commandant is in charge of archers and the inspection department is in charge of soldiers, but it seems inappropriate to say that the county commandant is in charge of archers and soldiers.
