Bannerman, one of the twenty-six guards of the Ming Dynasty, Hongwu 18 years by the bannerman thousands of households replaced. Under the jurisdiction of five, the palm of the golden drum, the flag, the folk strong men for the wrestlers with the emperor in and out and guard the four gates. It was initially established in Nanjing, and later moved to Yanjing with Emperor Yongle.

In the twenty-ninth year of Zhengde, Duoyan Sanwei read power, forcibly occupied Daning, the whole country was furious, the emperor sent 300,000 soldiers of the Beijing camp to expedition to Daning, and returned with a fiasco, none of the survivors in ten, countless generals and colonels were killed in battle, and the sons and daughters of the Manchu Dynasty were empty. The whole country was in an uproar, the civil and military were terrified, and the emperor was furious, and it was after this battle that the whole country saw the weak military strength of this old empire.

So there was a great reform in Zhengde for 30 years. In the 30th year of Zhengde, the whole [***] system was reformed, and the land of the world's health centers was sorted out, although the guards in various places were still retained, but the military household system was abolished, and the land under the guards was distributed to military households, making them ordinary people, and in this move, the number of household registrations in the world increased by 2.79 million, 18.5 million people, and the grain paid in that year alone was enough to 10 million stone -- equivalent to more than one-third of the country's grain revenue before, so the whole country praised it for good.

Changing the military household system to a conscription system, recruiting people from all over the country to enlist in the army, this is the locality.

In the center, only the old, weak, sick and disabled Beijing camp was repulsed, and those squad troops mobilized from Shandong, Henan, Liaodong and other capitals were ordered to return to their hometowns, be given land, and settle down for the people. Recruit 300,000 warriors from all over the country, reorganize the Beijing army, and in order to enrich the strength of officers in the army, for ten consecutive years, 300 warriors were recruited every year. In addition, the Upper 26th Guard, which was subordinate to one of the garrison forces of the Beijing Division, also underwent some reforms.

The military system of the Ming Dynasty inherited and developed the characteristics of the military system of the Tang, Song and Yuan dynasties, and established the guard system. The military status of the Ming Dynasty was hereditary, and the soldiers of the guard had a fixed registration, the integration of soldiers and farmers, and the garrison and garrison, which not only ensured the source of soldiers, but also met the supply of the army. The guards of the Ming Dynasty were extremely large and complex, and were divided into the pro-army Jingwei directly under the emperor and the guards under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies. Among them, there are garrison guards, garrison guards, garrison guards and guards. The number of guards in the country was as high as more than 2 million, and in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, it exceeded 2.6 million.

The guards in the world are all under the control of the governor's office of the five armies, and the military department is dispatched, but only the twenty-six guards are directly under the emperor, belonging to the army of the Son of Heaven, and the kind that has the closest relationship with the emperor, and the governor's office of the five armies cannot control it.

In the midst of the great national reform, as the people of the Son of Heaven, they naturally got the most benefits -- in addition to the Jinyi Guard, the Bannerman Guard, and the Advance Guard of the Government Army, who shouldered special responsibilities, the other 23 guards, each of which was originally 5,000 households according to normal rules, has now expanded to 10,000 households, that is, 11,500 people.

Among the twenty-six guards, the first place is naturally Jinyiwei, which does not need to be said. The third is the avant-garde of the government army, which is a unique guard forbidden army. As early as the beginning of Zhu Yuanzhang's establishment of the guard, he specially set up people with knives. During the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, the guards of the government army had a special mission, and set up a young army to learn skills. The avant-garde of the government army is in charge of the selection, training, and training of the young army; Those who officially became avant-garde guards were called sword officers, and they took turns to lead guards. During the reign of Ming Chengzu Zhu Di, he pushed the avant-garde of the government army. In the thirteenth year of Yongle, Chengzu Zhu Di issued a special holy decree to select the young army for the crown prince, set up the avant-garde of the government army, and set up official subordinates. To put it bluntly, this is the armed force that belongs to the crown prince - the Young Army. How high the status of the avant-garde of the government army is, and how strong the energy is, it can be seen from its composition, there are 25,000 households, with a full quota of 29,000 people!

As for the second-ranked standardguard, it was a little embarrassing.

It stands to reason that the status of the flag bearer guard should be very high, which can be seen from the clothes, the brocade guard is the first in the army of the Son of Heaven, and he is given to wear a flying fish suit. And the flag bearer guard, given to wear a unicorn suit, these two kinds of clothes, in addition to these two guards, the other civil and military officials, even if the status is high, there is no one, unless the emperor rewards him.

The real situation is not true.

The composition of the flag guard is divided into three parts: school captain, wrestler, and general soldier. The flag bearer guard has two major duties: the main responsibility is to take charge of the golden drum and banner used by the royal driver; The second duty is to guard the common force of the army - to escort the left and right, to guard the palace, and to be responsible for the safety of the royal family.

The captains and wrestlers of the standard-bearers are all selected from the people to fill the position. The duties of the lieutenant are to carry out the honor guard of the halo book, and he is also responsible for announcing civil and military officials and undertaking special matters before the royal drive. In terms of establishment, the captain of the Bannerman Guard does not belong to the Bannerman Guard, but belongs to the Jinyi Guard, the first guard of the pro-army. This is set up, probably because the flag guard has a single guard out of respect for the golden drum and the flag, and the captain who is in charge of the honor guard of the Lu book is not subordinate to the flag guard, and the direct Jinyi guard is out of direct control of the school captain with a special status, and the honor guard of the Lu book is too important to make any mistakes. The standard-bearer Weilux is responsible for the golden drum, the flag, and the palace ban with the royal car, and another duty is to guard the four gates of the palace ban. Obviously, the status of Lux is not as good as that of the school captain, and the golden drum and flag cannot compete with the honor guard of the Lu Book, so the Lux is subordinate to the flag bearer.

The higher-level captains have become other people's people, and the inferior ones at the lower level are their own, so it can be seen to what extent the standard-bearers have been weakened?

There are also seven or eight thousand Bannermen, but about 2,000 of them are Captains, who are nominally Bannermen, but in fact they are Jinyi Guards. The rest are only wrestlers and ordinary soldiers, and there are only so many wrestlers in the palace, so what should I do with the remaining three or four thousand soldiers? This is very embarrassing, if it is a local guard, maybe it will be abolished, but the army of the Son of Heaven can't afford to lose that person. I don't know which lord in the court came up with an idea -- Gyeonggi is an important place, not to be neglected, and my Ming Dynasty is the Son of Heaven guarding the country, so the Jingshi must not go wrong, so simply, I will get these masters of the standard-bearer guard to the towns outside the Jingshi. Although there are fewer people, it is also an armed force, isn't it?

As a result, the glorious standard-bearer guard, the second guard of the Son of Heaven's pro-army, became a member of the township joint defense team.

In this way, the power of the standard-bearers was weakened invisibly -- these standard-bearers who were assigned to guard the villages and towns became directly under the control of the military headquarters.

―――――― Dividing Line――――

In modern times, there are North Drifters, in fact, there are also in the Ming Dynasty.

Emperor Yongle made five expeditions to Mobei, beat the Mongolian Tartars to cry and call his mother, and the wolf ran to the pigs, and his cultural and martial arts were nothing to say, but he moved the capital to Beiping and set the national policy of the Son of Heaven to guard the country. In Lian Zining's time and space, until the end, the building overturned, the sky collapsed, the Dashun army came to the city, 300,000 Beijing battalions fled without a fight, and the emperor of the last days did not follow the advice of his subordinates to flee south, so that sentence of national policy has its next sentence - the king dies!
