Why were there long helmet guns on the helmets of officers and men in Qing Dynasty?
Throughout the ages, the clothes of the soldiers of the three armed forces have always been the interest of many military fans. It is understandable to have such emotions. After all, wearing combat uniforms makes the whole person look dashing and straight. If you have a good figure, it will be even more enviable. It is no exaggeration to describe it as handsome and mighty.

Throughout the history of our country, military uniforms have also shown a gradual change with the evolution of the times. It can be said that the military uniforms of each dynasty are the epitome of the history of an era. For example, the uniforms of Qin soldiers are mainly black, which is also a realistic reflection of their "Five Elements Theory". They think that they correspond to the water virtue in the five elements, so they should respond to the subtle internal laws of the universe in a black style.

But if which dynasty had the best military uniform? It is generally believed that the military uniforms of the Tang Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty are more distinctive, not to mention the bright colors, which can better set off the majesty of the soldiers. When the two armies got there, an overwhelming momentum was invisibly revealed.

Looking back at the military uniforms of the Qing Dynasty in modern history, I don't know what the designers think. The generals are wearing helmets from head to toe, which are well covered, especially a "lightning rod" on the helmet, which makes people vomit. Is this a war? Or to ward off evil spirits? Not only soldiers, but also civil servants who are used to watching the Qing Palace drama found that the costumes of the ministers of the Qing Dynasty were wonderful, with their own jokes, robes and horse sleeves, which were cumbersome and looked extremely ugly.

In modern history, the innovation and design of military uniforms have become an integral part of military modernization because of the need of neat appearance. For example, when we watch the National Day military parade, we will feel a sense of national pride when we see the uniform figure of the honor guards of the three armed forces. This is the important role of military uniform in enhancing national cohesion and self-confidence while giving people a strong visual impact.

But what is little known is that in today's collection world, the most enthusiastic collection object of many military fans is actually the "May 5 th Military Uniforms". Many foreigners are not familiar with the "May 5th" military uniform. This kind of military uniform refers to a military uniform installed by 1955 in the whole army, which has attracted people's attention because of its unique design concept and rich exotic customs.

At that time, we had a good relationship with the Soviet Union, so the design of military uniforms naturally influenced each other. At that time, the "Five-Year Plan" military uniform adopted a stand-up collar design, which made soldiers look particularly spirited after wearing it. Especially for female soldiers, skirts are used, and military hats have no brim, which perfectly sets off the heroic spirit and charm of female soldiers.

In addition, the epaulettes on the military uniform are also very distinctive. Navy epaulettes have anchor lines, and tank artillery units have miniature lines of tanks, which are very easy to identify. If we have to say that this kind of military uniform has shortcomings, it is its boat-shaped hat, which is a little unsuitable for the round-headed shape of China people and easy to fall off when worn.

Nevertheless, before the 1990s, this kind of uniform was the most prominent and eye-catching. Moreover, it was only installed for three years, and then it was retired. It is even more precious, so it is the favorite of many military fans collectors today.
