扬州 / Yangzhou (late Han province)

扬州 / Yangzhou (late Han province) enters the wiki through Hanji 969 as the province whose office and territory expose the gap between appointment and control. After 陈温 dies, 袁绍 sends 袁遗 to lead Yangzhou, but 袁术 defeats him. Yuan Shu then uses 陈瑀 in the Yangzhou office field, while later fighting his way toward 寿春 after 曹操 drives him south.

The source also makes Yangzhou a strategic-base problem, not only an office title. The host compares Yangzhou with 荆州 and 益州 as the three Yangtze-line provinces and treats Yangzhou as the richest eventual base: the eastern commanderies, including 丹阳郡, 会稽郡, and 豫章郡, become the later foundation for 孙策 and the Jiangdong/Sun-family branch.

In this page, Yangzhou is source-scoped to late-Han province politics. It should not be collapsed into later city-focused Yangzhou uses; the episode’s point is that formal provincial title, river geography, Huai-River access, and local commandery control split apart during the Yuan-family struggle.
