Historical Papers: Hunan Scholars in the Revolution of 1911
From the last years of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty to the early years of the Republic of China around the Revolution of 1911. This is a bourgeois revolutionary talent group represented by Huang Xing, Song and Cai E, and this talent group has an inevitable connection with the previous talent group. This is not only because some members of this talent group were originally members of the previous talent group, but also because most members of this talent group grew up under the influence of the members of the previous talent group. Slightly different from the previous talent group, most members of this talent group are young overseas students. Living in a foreign country, these foreign students accepted the social politics and natural science of the western bourgeoisie, felt the stimulation of the national crisis, and realized that the Qing Dynasty had become the imperial court of foreigners after the Boxer Rebellion, so they stood on the opposite side of the Qing Dynasty with the goal of overthrowing this dynasty. A large number of radical and omnipotent revolutionaries have emerged in this talent group. Such as Changsha people Huang Xing, Qin Lishan, Bi Yongnian, Zhang Zuo, Yi Baisha, Xu Fosu, Wen Jingwei and Peng, Xinhua people Chen Tianhua, Zou, Zou Yongcheng, Chen, Zeng Jie, Zeng Wu Ji and Fang Dingying, and Taoyuan people Song Jiaoren, Hu Ying, Qin Zhen and Jason Wu. , Liuyang Jiao Dafeng, Chen, Ningxiang Huang? Zhou Zhenlin, Chen Jiading, Changde people Liu Fuji, Zhao Bizhen, Hengshan people Chen Fan, Chen Xiefen, Tang Qunying, Xiangyin people Fan Yuanlian, Lixian people, Anhua people Li, Zhijiang people Zhang, Linli people Lin, Yiyang people Yao Hongye, Ningyuan people Ouyang Zhensheng, Pingjiang people Ling, Phoenix people Tian and so on. Many of these people were members of Hua Xing Hui, the earliest bourgeois revolutionary group in China, and later joined the bourgeois revolutionary party alliance in Tokyo or at home. According to statistics, among the 79 people who attended the preparatory meeting of the alliance, 20 were from Hunan. From 1905 to 1907, among the 960 members registered in the alliance's Tokyo headquarters, 156 are from Hunan. Because many Hunan intellectuals participated in the revolutionary camp of the League, almost all the activities and struggles of the League during this period, whether it was organization, propaganda, armed riots or assassinations, condensed the achievements and contributions of Hunan people. Especially in the uprisings led by the League, Hunan people, represented by Huang Xing, left touching stories. Sun Yat-sen praised Huang Xing for resisting 20,000 Qing troops with 200 men in the Qin Lian Uprising, which was "impossible to be theorized", an "extraordinary war", "impossible to be theorized" and "done by Hunan people".
