Abstract

Abstract The study is conducted as a comparative study of military tactics of the powers representing different regions and time periods throughout human history. Despite the differences in circumstance and time, common success factors are identified in the military tactics of the two great powers. Based on these success factors, it is possible to compare the military tactics of these armies using the following common criteria: basic tactical unit system, strategic flexibility, tactical mobility, and strategic planning. The Mongol Empire and Goguryeo Kingdom had long been the dominant military powers in their regions. Also, during the Goryeo Dynasty, which succeeded Goguryeo, the Mongolian army invaded Goryeo and used there creative military tactics. Especially, the Mongol army was one of the greatest in human history, and through its power and military skill, led to the magnificent growth of the Mongol Empire. Thus, this study identifies the success factors of the Mongol military tactics through comparison with Goguryeo military tactics.
