『兵學通』의 전술과 華城幸行 「班次圖」의 武藝 侍衛軍 배치 관계성 연구

Abstract

This study is based on the 『Byeonghagtong(兵學通)』 tactics of Military tactical book, which was compiled in the King Jeongjo era. Using the weapons of the actual paramilitary procession of this 「Banchado(班次圖)」 illustrations, analysis was conducted from a military historical point of view, such as tactical development of combat and tactical signal development using flags and musical instruments. When the real king's procession faces a military threat until the arrival from Palace Changdeoggung(昌德宮) to Suwon Hwaseong(華城), it is most effective to protect the king and move the procession steadily to the next shelter. Therefore, the procession of 「Banchado」 was more than a ritual procession, and the actual protection military tactical arrangement of the King was carried out. In particular, King Jeongjo arranged five layer of Royal guard, a sword soldier, a spear soldier and gun soldier to make his escort thicker. This was designated as Muyecheongjagmun(武藝廳作門) and was strictly controlled at the entrance and exit of the unit. In addition, King Jeongjo confirmed that the close-guard area formed by the Royal guard that quickly responded to a surprise attack through the cavalry unit of Seongidae(善騎隊). This is a tactical deployment that protects the most important generals during the 『Byeonghagtong』 march when attacked by an enemy, and this is reflected in the 「Banchado(班次圖)」. In conclusion, it can be seen that King Jeongjo's procession of the 「Banchado(班次圖)」 is more than a simple chairperson procession, and reflects the military tactical meaning.
