Anti-Qing Dynasty and Restoration of Ming Dynasty are a series of movements in China that rebelled against the rule of Qing Dynasty and demanded the restoration of Ming Dynasty. Among them, King Yanping of Taiwan Province Province and the anti-Qing in the early Qing Dynasty, and the anti-Qing banner of Wu Sangui during the San Francisco Rebellion. The slogan of "anti-Qing and regaining sight" ran through the whole Qing Dynasty, and this indomitable spirit of resistance was the highest in the whole history of China.
After the Qing army entered Shanhaiguan, it adopted a high-handed policy towards most Han people living in Shanhaiguan. In order to restore their imperial court, the Han people independently developed a folk movement against the oppressive rule of the Qing government. In order to consolidate the rule of China, the Qing government promulgated policies such as shaving hair and changing clothes, forcing Han people to take off Hanfu and put on Manchu clothes, and forcing them to change their hair styles to Manchu ones.
The nature of anti-Qing activities;
In some published historical works, the anti-Qing struggle in the early Qing Dynasty was described as China's struggle against foreign aggression, and the rule of the Qing regime was described as foreign conquest of China. This view was later abandoned by the academic community. Scholar Wei pointed out that the above viewpoints are neither in line with historical facts nor extremely harmful.
The Qing regime, like the Ming regime, was the regime of the landlord class in China, and the dispute between Ming and Qing dynasties was a domestic struggle in China. The anti-Qing struggle in the early Qing Dynasty had both contradictions within the ruling class and the continuation of the peasant war in the late Ming Dynasty, both of which had the nature of national struggle.
