How did the Eight Banners come from?

The Eight Banners are military flags, which were compiled by various units in the Qing Dynasty. 160 1 year, Nurhachi reorganized. At the beginning, the whole imperial flag and the yellow and blue flag were designated as the upper three flags, and the others were the afternoon flags. Later, when Dourgen was regent, because it was a white flag, he moved the blue flag and replaced it with the whole white flag. It can be seen that the three flags above are yellow, yellow and white, and the others are the five flags below.

Later, the Mongolian flag was established in Nurhachi period, and it became the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of Han Army in Huang Taiji period. Together with the Eight Banners, one * * * is 24 flags, among which the three flags called by the emperor himself are called the whole house, yellow ornaments and all white. These three flags are not unified, and the most distinguished one is the imperial flag, not the whole government flag. Therefore, many royal family and court officials are decorated with yellow flags. The back row is called the afternoon flag, which is governed by King Baylor himself. It has five flags: blue, blue, white, red and red.

After the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, in order to strengthen military defense, the Eight Banners were stationed in the capital, but the direction of garrison was particularly particular.

The north belongs to water and the yellow belongs to earth, so two yellow flags guard the north and represent the meaning of earth town water.

The east belongs to wood, and white is gold, so two white flags guard the east and represent gold in the west of Jin Mu.

Red belongs to fire, so let two red flags guard the west, representing fire and gold.

The south belongs to fire, and the blue belongs to water, so two blue flags guard the south, representing the meaning of water extinguishing.

In fact, before the Eight Banners entered the customs, they were all brave and good at fighting. Otherwise, they could not have destroyed the entrance of the Ming Dynasty. However, after entering the customs, with the improvement of the status of the Eight Banners, many children of the Eight Banners began to covet enjoyment, neglected training, and their military quality soared, leading to the demise of the Qing Dynasty.
