The eight flags of the Qing Dynasty are: yellow flag, yellow flag, red flag, white flag, white flag, blue flag and blue flag. The Eight Banners originated from the hunting organization of Manchu (Nuzhen) people, which was the social life and military organization form of the flag bearer in Qing Dynasty, and also the fundamental system of Qing Dynasty.

In the 29th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (160 1), Nurhachi was reorganized and organized, with Lu Niu E Town, Jia La E Town and Gushan E Town as leaders respectively. At the beginning, four flags of yellow, white, red and blue were set and woven into four flags. In the 43rd year of Wanli (16 15), four yellow, white, red and blue flags were added and the Eight Banners system was established. The Manchu (Nuzhen) society practiced the Eight Banners system. Ding Zhuang was a soldier in wartime and a civilian in peacetime, which made his army very effective.

"Eight Banners" is an organizational form in which the social structure and military establishment of the Qing Dynasty are integrated. In the middle and late period, it evolved into the general name of this special organizational form. Therefore, the Manchu army, Mongolian army and Han army based on ethnic groups in this organization are called Eight Banners Manchuria, Eight Banners Mongolia and Eight Banners Han Army respectively. "Eight Banners" must be put in front to accurately express this meaning, which is also called in the documents and oral language of the Qing Dynasty.

In modern times, a large number of characters put the "Eight Banners" behind them, which are called Manchu Eight Banners, Mongolian Eight Banners and Han Eight Banners, with confusing meanings. It is necessary to correct it here. For example, the Han army never had the Eight Banners Organization, and only the Eight Banners Organization had a part of the Han army.

Among the Eight Banners are six Koryo Zuo Ling (Korean), 1 Russian Zuo Ling, 1 Fanzi Zuo Ling (Tibetan), 1 Huizi Zuo Ling (Uygur). In addition, there is a separate Eight Banners Chahar nomadic outside Zhangjiakou. ? [47] The Eight Banners are made up of banners, and their members are all standard-bearers, that is, the standard-bearers of the Han army. Therefore, it should be said that the flag bearer is composed of Manchu, Mongolian and Han nationality, but it cannot be said that all the flag bearers are Manchu.
