Shogun

Japanese: 廂軍 - しょうぐん
Shogun
One of the Song Dynasty military systems: Emperor Taizu reorganized the military of the military governors and transferred the best soldiers to the central imperial army, so the elderly, injured, and other weak soldiers were organized into the Xiang army. They did not participate in battles, but were used for construction and maintenance, land and sea transportation, etc. Due to the decline in the quality of the Xiang army, measures were taken to strengthen the local militia.

Japanese:
宋の兵制の1つ
太祖が節度使の軍隊を整理し,精鋭な兵士は中央の禁軍に編入したため,老齢,負傷兵など劣弱な者が廂軍に編成された。彼らは戦闘には参加せず,工作営繕・水陸運送などに使役された。廂軍の質の低下のため郷兵(民兵)の強化策がとられた。
