Seems like they have longer, heavier shields for Advanced and Elite soldiers, painted and lacquered, while Basic soldiers would have small rectangular unfinished wood and wicker shields. 

[Lion.Kanzen]

this is the halberd or polearm.

I have to confess that I don't know all the units yet, this was the only mod (civ mod) I hadn't installed yet.

yesterday I was watching that on a video I got from youtube.

by halberd I mean that it will need its own template.

In the video you can see that it was used to decapitate or cut the neck.

the weapon is powerful but the warrior lacks defence against projectiles such as stones, arrows etc.

很强大，但战士广泛对石头武器、箭等射箭的防御。

This documentary is not well done, in fact this weapon can be made into a short handle like a battle axe and can be used with one hand, the soldier is equipped with a shield, it is often used to attack the head and shoulders of the enemy, just like the battle axe.

[Lion.Kanzen]

This mercenary unit. in rags.

Thank you @AIEND for the translated PDF of that book. Here are the relevant images I put together:

scout, hunter unit

 riding a pony would be a better alternative to the korean mercenary. the korean mercenary would be left for the embassy.

Ainu horse mercenary archer suit well.

还是更长的范围吧？

Yes, I mean the ge is a weapon that is similar to an axe, both long and short, and is often used to hit the head and shoulders of enemies, even if they are protected by a shield. There is a Shang Dynasty tomb in China. The owner of the tomb was a warrior, and the Tianling cover of his body was left with fragments of Ge, which proves that it is very common for such weapons to be used to attack the top of the enemy's head.

My suggestion is that if you want to create a template, it should be called the poleaxe.

I have a question, aren't these weapons modifications of field tools?

They look like tools like scythes turned into weapons.

我有一个问题，这些武器不是野战工具的修改吗？

它们看起来像镰刀这样的工具变成了武器。

No, it's not like a sickle. I've been to more than a dozen museums, and I've seen all kinds of stone and bronze ge from the Shang Dynasty to the Spring and Autumn Period. I have a general understanding of the evolution of this weapon. The dagger was mounted on a short handle and used to chisel into the opponent's body, until it evolved to look like a scythe.
Similar to some early Chinese bronze battle axes, the blade is so narrow that it looks like a chisel mounted on a short handle.
