It is surprising that the Irish War of Independence 1919-1921 was not mentioned. A couple of years ago a poll was carried out by British historians and ex British military men and they put Michael Collins and the IRA(of this period) only behind George Washington and the Continental Army as the Britains most formidable guerilla opponents. People will argue for the Boers but they had artillery, and modern weapons and fought both conventional and guerilla war just like Washington and the latter also had military aid from military powers like France. The Flying Columns of the IRA could range from 25 riflemen to over 100 men like Tom Barry's column at the close of the war. There was no standard size unit. These operated in the country on foot and the Active Service Units operated in urban areas. The IRA at its peak could only put 2,500-3,000 men into the field in terms of actually armed men. Although they had thousands more but these had no arms and carried out other work and were obviously a manpower resource for replacing casualties..The Crown Forces had a strength of over 58,000 regular Brirish troops,over 15,500 Police. I have no numbers for Royal Marines,Royal Navy and RAF personnel. The British presence in Ireland could be at least be calculated at 80,000 or more. The IRA of this period are hardly ever mentioned in military publications dedicated to guerillas. The IRA in military terms were just an army of riflemen. The vast majority of the IRA arsenal was contraband of war. They also had a couple of machine guns and the heaviest weapon in the IRA arsenal were IED's. They would force an imperial global power like the British Empire to the negotiation table. The British would withdraw from 26 of Irelands 32 counties and the other 6 counties remain part of the UK as at the time they were mostly Unionist and Loyalist. The IRA men of the Flying Columns could justifiably be considered first rate light infantry. Many were veterans of WW1 and some had been awarded for gallantry. It is no coincidence that the best IRA units had Great War veterans in their ranks. The most successful IRA Field Commander in the conflict was Tom Barry who had served with the Royal Field Artillery in WW1. Although the Irish War of Independence is chronicled as beginning in 1919 and ending in 1921 but the true insurgency was literally from the summer of 1920 to the summer of 1921. The British Army lost more soldiers in the last 6 months of the conflict than they did in either the worst full year for the conflict in Northern Ireland or the war in Afghanistan. What is surprising about the insurgency is how quickly it developed. For example a small unit of IRA in Co.Cork ambushed a cycle patrol of Cameron Highlanders. The IRA were only armed with hurleys(like hockey sticks) and captured 12 rifles with no fatalities for either side. However within a couple of months the IRA would be attacking British convoys with IED's. Despite the plethora of books written about the famous Thompson sub machine gun and numerous documentaries made about this iconic weapon it never mentions the historic fact which is this machine gun made its military debut in Dublin in the summer of 1921. By the time it became available for the US Army in Europe the Great War had ended. The IRA were the first army(albeit guerilla army) to fire it in actual combat. The infantry tactics of the IRA at the time would be recognisable to anyone who has served as an infantry man in modern armies. At the time the IRA would (a) travel to and from on foot( sometimes many miles) to POC(Point of contact) with the British,(b) get really close to the enemy which we recognise today as CQB (Close quarter battle),(c) construct sophisticated ambushes and KZ(Kill Zone),(d) implement proper E&E(escape and evasion) techniques after successful attacks. Two British soldiers who fought against the IRA during the 1919-1921 conflict would be influenced by their tactics and they are Major John Holland and Major Colin Gubbins. These two men would be instrumental in setting up the Commandos and the SOE and the latter was to "set Europe ablaze" in Churchills words. Major Bernard Montgomery served in Co.Cork and later would be victorious over Field Marshal Rommel at the Battle of El Alamein. General Arthur Percival also served in Co.Cork and would later surrender Singapore to the Japanese in WW2 which Churchill described as "the blackest day in the history of the British Empire" . Major Douglas Wimberly who also served in Co.Cork commanded the the Cameron Highlanders and would later in WW2 command the 51st Highland Brigade at El-Alamein. The IRA of the 1919-1921 period deserve to be mentioned in military publications just like any other formidable irregular fighters.

When some critical mass is achieved, enemies/other tribes/safety area acquired reinforcing and standardizing culture/religion/safety type/warfare type. Some else actor will guerilla- takeover, say, economics or policymaking/something, and restart the process. Stopgaps on technology advancement/population/religion etc... Too bad we atm live in worldwide "interesting times" in many different areas (everything changing fast). High values of volatility atm.

Fun fact: chimpanzees actually have been known to go to war with each other. Jane Goodall observed a war between two different packs of chimpanzees in the 70s, where one pack basically genocided all of the males of another pack over the course of a month or so. There are a couple of good documentaries about it.

I really like the concept of new mini-series and look forward to seeing more. One suggestion I have for future episodes is to include a little bit more on the weaknesses and drawbacks of the strategy/tactic being focused on in a particular episode. For instance, the video generally focused on the strengths and success stories about guerilla warfare, without really covering its weaknesses and drawbacks. This then creates a situation where people might wonder why countries often don't design their military with this strategy in mind, and why it is instead often only used as a strategy of last resort.

Great work as always team. Really looking forward to the rest of this series 🤟

This is actually more interesting than single conflicts imo as you explain general strategies with examples. so this format is more generally educational. I mean individual conflicts are still interesting but please post more of these, yes!

Guerrilla combat is a great way to start this analysis of warfare. I can't wait for more videos to drop on this 'Art of War' series. Hopefully, you can get Sun Tzu to co-host the next ones.

I would definitely be interested in learning more about the different versions of the art of war.

Great video! Definitely do more of these although Wellington would be livid as the Guerrilla's in Spain contributed significantly to his overall success in Spain and were a constant thorn for Napoleon that led to his downfall

The oldest example of guerrilla warfare in a major conflict I can think of apparently predates the term by quite some margin - it's the Imjin War - the Japanese invasion of Korea led by Toyotomi Hideyoshi in 1592. The Japanese forces, hardened after decades of the intense civil war known as the Sengoku Jidai pretty much steamrolled Korea's conventional forces long before their Chinese allies could mobilize a force to counterattack. This left only 2 problems, to which a third was soon added: -Admiral Yi Sun-sin's astonishingly advanced understanding of age of sail naval tactics for his time, which led to some ridiculously lopsided victories (Most notably the battle of Myeongnyang, where he led a fleet of 13 ships against a Japanese fleet of 133 warships and 200+ support ships to victory without losing a single ship, sinking 31 warships before the Japanese withdrew. Yes, there are records of this on both sides. It's notable that the Koreans had cannons and some of their ships had armour plates that made boarding operations basically impossible (for the same reason that jumping onto a tank is generally not a threat to the tank crew inside it), while the Japanese had archers and swordsmen and relied on boarding operations, so...there's a massive technological mismatch to be exploited.) Admiral Yi's fleet was never very large, but his continued success up until a very Nelson-like death from a gunshot wound in the final battle of the war meant that the Japanese could never just assume ships going between Japan and Korea would make it safely. (Though Yi did it first, so perhaps it's better to say that Nelson died much like Yi did. -The general Korean populace was, uhh...not willing to accept Japanese rule. So they fought a guerilla war, harassing Japanese occupying forces and generally making it impossible for the Japanese to relax. -And then the Chinese army arrived and pushed Japanese forces south (not precisely along the same lines as North and South Korea today, but it resulted in a situation somewhat comparable to the Korean war aside from the South being rather less interested in helping the military forces occupying that side.) Both armies had major supply issues - Yi and the guerillas making planning anything a nightmare for the Japanese, and the very long walk from China's seat of power to Korea causing just as many problems for Chinese/Korean forces. (Side note: this was one of the biggest seaborne invasions in history, with over 300 000 Japanese troops sent in - the largest until the Normandy invasion in 1944 where ~352 000 Allied soldiers went in.)

I do have a french biais but here the study of asymetric warfare is centered around the experience of French Officiers coming from the French resistance who fought the first Indochina War (Vietnam) and developped a "Counter Insurgency" theory that was implemented during the Algeria War. As they had practised guerilla tactics themselves and fought against an opponent using it , they had a lot of background to develop "good" solutions (good inst to be taken as moral). That was succesfull on the field against the FLN guerilla but as these officers were banished by De Gaulle after the war they went to instruct their theory in the Manaus Military School of The Jungle where all the dictatorships of Southern America whent and learn this. I do have friends in Central America that still remind me that "Death Columns" of dictactor state where all trained by former French Officers to fight against guerillas. On the matter of guerilla warfare, if you can understand French i do recommand a French Military Historian Channel on KZread called "Sur le Champ" (on the battleground) where he did post a few videos on the "Little War" centered around the French experience in Portugal during Napoleonic times. and around all the failures of the Napoleonic army theory.

It's good that in covering guerilla warfare, you also mentioned some of the counters against it. The British experience in the Boer wars is a great example you mentioned because the first war the Brits were shocked. It has to be said that the Boers were also getting backing from Imperial Germany, the Kaiser was more than happy to send them new German weapons. The second war British got their act together and won. A major reason for Mao's success was because the Imperial Japanese Army was focused on Mao's rivals: Chiang Kai Shek's Nationalist China. In 1944 the Japanese army conducted Operation Ichi-Go, the largest offensive by Imperial Japan. Mao sat this out knowing full well the Nationalists would take this offensive to the teeth. Imperial Japan had other problems elsewhere and would lose the war, but the damage they inflicted on the Nationalists were so extreme that it determined that Mao's Communists would win the civil war when peace in WWII was finalized. Germany in WWII was royally screwed. It was caught in a massive conventional war in several theaters while forced to garrison lots of captured locations. Some of these conquered areas had a bitter insurgency going on. Yugoslavia was partisan warfare hell for the Axis. Tito led a very popular insurgency. The Germans had over 100k men there dealing with the mess. The Axis resorted to brutality but it only fed the insurgency. It became a vicious circle that fed itself and grew to cruelty that only became worse. In the American Revolution the colonists faced a lot of defeats. Washington himself lost several. The main thing he did was despite these losses, he preserved the army. A super convenient thing for the Americans was the British have long been in a competitive struggle with other European powers. The Seven Years War before had the Brits on top and a bunch of guys on the bad end of that peace treaty wanted ways to get back at the British. Spain, the Netherlands, and the French. American diplomats were getting material support to feed the revolution from these powers. Eventually that support became outright open warfare. The Americans were successful in enlarging the war where major European powers now became directly involved, and now it became way too costly for the British.

Love this idea, do make more

It occurs to me that within all conventional wars there's always still an element of guerilla warfare in the form of separatists, rebels etc committing acts of sabotage, espionage and misinformation or the undermining of misinformation Even though these things aren't seldom described as guerilla warfare on their own, they do constitute significant pieces of guerilla strategies
