清代安西卫、沙州卫设置时间考——兼论沙州所建制的有无

When the Anxi and Shazhou Garrisons Were Constructed——Plus a Discussion on Whether or not There Was a Shazhou Suo

安西卫和沙州所设置于雍正二年(1724),雍正四年(1726)沙州所升卫,并非是长期以来被学界和社会所广泛接受的"雍正元年(1723)置安西卫、沙州所,雍正三年(1725)沙州所升卫"。对文献解读方式的正确与否、文献形成过程的了解程度和对地区自身发展脉络的熟悉程度都对学术成果的可信度产生一定的影响。

The Anxi and Shazhou Posts were set up in the second year of the Yongzheng era （1724） and the Shazhou Post was upgraded to Shazhou Garrison in the fourth year （1726） . The widely accepted opinion that “the Anxi Garrison and Shazhou Post were set up in the first years of the Yongzheng era （1723） and Shazhou Post was promoted to a garrison in the third year of the Yongzheng era （1725）” is not true. Whether one correctly interprets historical documents, how much knowledge he or she has about how the historical documents took shape, and how well he or she understands the development of the region in question will greatly influence the credibility of his or her academic results.
