군사대비태세 차원에서 본 병자호란의 참패원인

Abstract

10 years earlier the Manchu war of 1636 took place, the Chinese Invasion of Korea by Hookeum in 1627 ended. Under the condition that the Chosun Dynasty worships the Ming Dynasty, the Chosun Dynasty was forced to sign a treaty of forming a brotherhood with Hookeum, which the Chosun Dynasty used to look down on as barbarians. In the Manchu war of 1636, the Chosun Dynasty disastrously was defeated in around 50 days, and such humiliating defeat clearly showed the inability o fgovernment, But, in the point of view that the war is an aggregate outcome of society, systems, and national power of the time, the historical understanding of the Injo Administration must be a priority. Also, military readiness postures like tactics, strategies, and weapons should be analyzed and associated with the cause of the defeat. After 7 years of the Japanese Invasion of Korea in 1592 and the Chinese Invasion of Korea in 1627, the expansion of national power to promote the increase in armaments would have been limited due to the poor financial structure and public sentiments. The confusion of training system and books on strategy that provide standards of tactics and commanders due to the change in a threat from infantry men in Japan to troopers in Hookeum may have impeded the solidarity between soldiers and commanders. It is considered as that the political belief stressing on loyalt and obligations and the problems in decision-making processes caused by conflicts between the parties are the causes of the defeat in the Manchu war of 1636.
