军功顶戴(简称军功)是清代顶戴中衍生出的一种特殊形式,用于奖励立有军功的军民。它肇始于乾隆末年对林爽文起义的镇压,在嘉庆年间建立起了比较全面的管理制度。而自道光朝后期以降,其颁发严重泛滥,不仅授予权下移,品级趋滥,数量膨胀,甚至被大量颁发给与军功无关的社会边缘群体。获得军功顶戴者在理论上有可能以此为基础获得武职,但一般仅为“顶戴荣身”。比起其他许多品位方面的奖励制度,它可谓是一种廉价的名器。 The military top wear (referred to as military service) is a special form derived from the Dai Dai in the Qing Dynasty, used to reward the military and civilian established military. It started in the last years of the repression of Lin Shuangwen uprising in Qianlong, Jiaqing years to establish a more comprehensive management system. Since Daoguang went down in the latter period, its issuance has been gravely flooded. It not only gives the right to lower the rank and scope but also swells in quantity and even is widely distributed to marginalized social groups that have nothing to do with military power. It is theoretically possible for those who wear military jackets to obtain military employment on the basis of this theory, but they are usually only “top-ranked”. Compared to many other aspects of the reward system, it can be described as a cheap name.
