For example, Joseon used a sword called Hwando, which was shorter than Japan’s, but it could be used with a shield, and the cavalry and archer’s gun were portable enough to carry around easily
So if you fight with swords, you’re behind Japan, which has a long reach
You don’t have to shoot him with a bow before Richie comes in because he’s short
Even if the sword is long, what will stop the cavalry
Because of Joseon’s military characteristics, Japan also preferred Hwando Island
There is a record that the Joseon army used Japanese charts captured, so there is a rumor that Joseon recognized the power of Japanese charts
I actually wrote it, but I ground it and made it short
It’s too long and it breaks easily
Later, they throw it away because it’s too immature
Japan was rich in silver and copper to the extent that there was a study that it supplied more than 70 silver distributed to JoseonIron was desperately scarce, so it was mixed in the sand and used sand with a lot of impurities
Joseon also used a lot of private iron, but proper iron mines were more than 30 of the supply, so iron for weapons was properly extracted
At that time, it was true that Japan’s durability was much worse than expected because it was difficult to refine private iron with technology
At some point, the reason why the bubble burst suddenly in Japan was because as this reality became known, there was a perception that it was a sword that broke easily even though it was big and cool
Of course, Japanese craftsmen also worked on a lot of things, but they also improved their durability by making the sword big and thick
During the Edo period, Japanese smelting techniques were greatly improved as Joseon’s advanced smelting methods were introducedJapan’s private railway problem has not been solved
Modern Japan is solving the problem by importing most of its iron from Australia
As China fought against Japanese pirates and reproduced Japanese islands in Chinese iron and Chinese style, it was effective, so it was hired properly
Like Japan, where infantry fighting was developed, Japan also had its own advantages
Due to the military nature of Joseon, which valued long-range firepower standby soldiers enough to quickly replace more than 70 of the entire army with a group gun, it was difficult to accept Japanese troops who were weak and difficult to carry
So apart from the compliments of Japanese design and swordsmanship, it was actually Hwando that was used in a formative way
It’s hard to march with a gun, but I’m telling you to carry a long Japan, tooConsidering the increase in the supply of gunpowder weapons around the world and the miniaturization of black self-defense, it seems that the direction of Joseon, which continued to use Hwando, was correct
The black purpose and appearance of Joseon, which was the center of the Suseong War, fought with Japanese swords and cavalry in the north, where cavalry were rare, were inevitably different
These days, we study the reasons for making this difference, and Japan and Joseon have become reluctant to do so
After all, the correct answer is that the black weapons employed by each country are well-designed for each country’s military and environmental situation
