The three banners of the Qing Dynasty.

It is led by the emperor himself, that is, the emperor's personal soldiers, called Shangsanqi. The Lower Five Banners are respectively led by the princes, Baylor, and Beizi, and are called the Lower Five Banners.

Shangsanqi: Shangsanqi was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.

The three flags under the direct command of the Qing Dynasty were yellow before the Qing Dynasty troops entered Beijing.

Inlaid with yellow flags, blue flags by the emperor Taiji.

Personally commanded, it was the emperor's personal soldiers, called Shangsanqi.

After the Qing army entered Beijing, Dolgon.

When he became the regent, he put his own white flag under his command.

Included in the upper three flags, and his sworn enemy Hauge.

The blue flag of the commander was reduced to the lower five flags, and from then on, the upper three flags were the positive yellow flag, the inlaid yellow flag and the positive blue flag.

Lower Five Banners: The Lower Five Banners were led by the emperor's clan during the Qing Dynasty, that is, the princes or Baylors, and the main responsibility of the Lower Five Banners was to garrison various areas inside and outside the capital.

1. The Eight Banners system implemented in the Qing Dynasty was not only a military system, but also an administrative system in the early Qing Dynasty. Three flags: inlaid yellow, yellow, white three flags. Under the five flags: red, red, blue, blue, white.

2. The basis for distinguishing between the upper three flags and the lower five flags.

In the early Qing Dynasty, that is, at the end of the seventh year of Shunzhi (1650), the Qing ancestor Fulin adjusted the order of the Eight Banners in order to strengthen his control over the Eight Banners. The three flags inlaid with yellow, yellow and white controlled by the emperor are called the upper three flags; The five flags of red, red, blue, blue, and white under the jurisdiction of the kings and Baylor are called the lower five flags. The upper three banners are worshiped than the lower five banners, which are the emperor's personal soldiers, serving as the guards of the palace and other tasks, and the lower five banners are stationed in Beijing and various places.

In 1601 (the 29th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty), Nurhachi established four flags of yellow, white, red and blue, which were called yellow, white, red and blue, and the flags were all pure colors. In the forty-third year of Wanli, on the basis of the original cattle recording, the Eight Banners system was created, that is, in addition to the original four flags, the four flags of yellow, white, red and blue were added. In addition to the four positive color flags, the yellow, white, and blue flags are all inlaid with red, and the red is inlaid with white.

All those under their jurisdiction are grouped in the flag. Its system stipulates: every 300 people are 1 cattle record, and the cattle record is really 1 person; 5 The ox is 1 ala, and the cala is 1 person; 5 Jiala is 1 solid mountain, and 1 solid mountain is set up.

According to historical records, there were 308 Manchurian cattle records, 76 Mongolian cattle records, and 16 Han army cattle records at that time, a total of 400 records. The Eight Banners compiled at this time were later known as the Eight Banners of Manchuria. During the reign of Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty, the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Army were established, and the flag system was the same as that of the Eight Banners of Manchuria.

The Eight Banners were controlled by the Emperor, the Kings, and Baylor. In 1650 (the seventh year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty), in order to strengthen the control of the Eight Banners, the order of the Eight Banners was adjusted. The three flags inlaid with yellow, yellow and white controlled by the emperor are called the upper three flags; The five flags of red, red, blue, blue, and white under the jurisdiction of the kings and Baylor are called the lower five flags, and they have not changed since then.

The upper three flags are worshiped than the lower five flags, which are the emperor's personal soldiers and serve as the guards of the palace and other tasks; The lower five banners were stationed in Beijing and various places. In order to further strengthen the centralization of power and weaken the control of the kings and Baylor over the banners, Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty strictly distinguished the subordination of the banners in the five banners (commonly known as the outer leader) and the subordinate leader (commonly known as the inner leader). The main part of the Lower Five Banners was also under the direct control of the emperor.

The kings and Baylor could only control their vassals. It is also inlaid with yellow, white, white and blue flags on the left, which is called the left wing; The four flags of yellow, red, red and blue are on the right and are called the right wing.

The yellow flag, the yellow flag, and the blue flag are called the upper three flags by the emperor himself, and the remaining five flags are called the lower five flags.

The three flags are the yellow flag, the yellow flag, and the white flag, which are led by the emperor himself, with respectful status and higher treatment.

The lower five flags are inlaid with white flags, positive red flags, inlaid red flags, positive blue flags, and inlaid blue flags, and their status and treatment are much lower than those of the upper three flags.

At the same time, the Manchu Qing Dynasty stipulated that under certain conditions: the empress dowager, the empress's maiden family, or out of the emperor's special order, the flag status can be changed, that is, from the lower five flags to the upper three flags, which is called the flag lifting.

Empress Dowager Cixi, surnamed Yehenara, is a descendant of the famous Haixi Jurchen Yehebe.

On December 18 of this year, the edict was issued: Empress Dowager Cixi's mother's house was carried into Manchuria with a yellow flag.

Since then, the flag of the Empress Dowager Cixi has been officially changed from the blue flag of the lower five flags to the yellow flag of the upper three flags.

The Eight Banners system is a form of military organization of the social life of the banner people in the Qing Dynasty, which is divided into three upper banners and five lower banners.

The three banners under the direct control of the emperor are mainly responsible for guarding the Forbidden City, and they are the emperor's most important personal guards. In addition to guarding the capital, the lower five banners were also sent to garrison garrisons in various places, and their status was lower than that of the people in the upper three banners. After Emperor Shunzhi, the Eight Banners system and the division of the five banners under the three banners were fixed and unchanged.

During the Nurhachi period, the initial set up was only yellow, white, red, and blue 4 color flags, and in the 43rd year of Wanli, 4 flags were added with yellow, white, red, and blue, so far, the eight-flag system was established. After that, Nurhachi and Huang Taiji added the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Army respectively, and the Eight Banners system was improved. In the beginning, there was no distinction between high and low in the Eight Banners, but with the strengthening of imperial power, the division between upper and lower gradually formed.

Before the Qing army entered the customs, the yellow flag, the yellow flag, and the blue flag were personally led by Huang Taiji, and they were the "three flags", and the remaining red flags, red flags, white flags, white flags, and blue flags were called "five flags", which were in charge of the prince and Baylor. After the Qing army entered the customs, Emperor Shunzhi was young, Dolgon was involved in politics, and the positive white flag led by him was included in the upper three banners, and the positive blue flag led by his opponent Haoge was included in the lower five banners. After Dolgon's death, Emperor Shunzhi took over the Zhengbai Banner, and after that, the distinction between the upper three banners and the lower five banners was determined, and there was no change.

Shangsan Banner is the three flags of the Qing Dynasty that were directly under the control of the emperor. The Eight Banners of Manchuria are divided into three upper flags and five lower flags. Before the Qing army entered the customs, the yellow flag, the yellow flag, and the blue flag were personally led by Huang Taiji, who was the emperor's personal soldiers, called "Shangsan Banner".

The remaining red flags, red flags, white flags, white flags, and blue flags, called the "Lower Five Flags", are in charge of the prince, Baylor, and Beizi, and are stationed in various places.

After entering the Central Plains, Dolgon incorporated the positive white flag he led into the upper three banners, and lowered the positive blue flag led by Hauge to the lower five banners, and has not changed since then. After Dolgon's death, Emperor Shunzhi took over the reins of the White Banner.
