This paper addresses two issues. (1) It is true that as most recent works on occidental history in Japan have stressed, for understanding the relationship between a society and its army, researching military units from various points of view, especially from the standpoint of the socalled 'military historiography in a broad sense' is significant. However, is it possible to grasp the actual situation of the army without knowing its tactics, table of equipment for each soldier, daily life in battle fields, and so on, as traditionally studied by the 'military historiography in a narrow sense'? (2) Could we regard the characteristics of the 18th-century Russian army, which has often been criticized as backward, as results of the efforts of Russian leaders to actively respond to the nature of resources in their country and geographical and residential conditions in the areas where their army fought and marched through? To answer these questions, this paper mainly focuses on the reasons for expanding Russian dragoon regiments after the defeat in Narva. This expansion seems to be a better solution for both making good use of lighter Russian horses and enhancing the logistic and intelligence abilities of the army in the sparsely populated lands.
