Ge sheng guan bing hua ming ce

這是一部清代全國各省八旗官兵的花名總冊,內列每人的職務姓名等,年代不詳,據推測大約在道光年間,是對當時全國軍隊成員的一次集中清點登記,由此可知當時清代軍隊的分佈、結構和規模,具有極高的史料價值。

This is a nationwide muster roll of the officers and soldiers of the Qing dynasty’s Eight Banners army. The year is unknown, but presumably it was written around the period of the Daoguang Emperor. It is an extensive counting and registering of the members of the military at that time, recording everyone’s names and posts. According to this, we can know the distribution, structure, and scale of the Qing army at that time, which makes this book of great historical value.
