With the passage of time, the smoke of history has cleared away. Let's return to Wuchang City, the land of China a hundred years ago. It seems that the rumbling guns in the vigorous Xinhai Revolution have sounded in our ears again, and a pair of heroic faces seem to reappear in our minds. It is their revolutionary actions that shed their heads and blood for truth, democracy and freedom that have led to our hard-won peaceful era today. They are revolutions.
A hundred years ago, the land of China was in the late Qing Dynasty. During the stormy feudal rule, a group of young people who accepted advanced western culture and ideas quietly set up revolutionary groups for the freedom and democracy of the Chinese nation. These groups have become the kindling of revolution and a single spark that can start a prairie fire in the future.
at the beginning of the 2th century, the national capitalism in Wuhan developed rapidly, and the strength of the national bourgeoisie continued to grow. Due to the establishment of various modern schools, a group of bourgeois intellectuals appeared in Hubei, and they became the backbone of the revolution. Secondly, Wuhan was an area where imperialism invaded earlier. The imperialist plunder and feudal oppression made the people's resistance surge here, which laid a mass foundation for Wuchang Uprising. Third, the revolutionaries made long-term preparations for the uprising in Wuhan. The Literary Society and the * * * Progressive Association went deep into the Hubei New Army and did a lot of publicity and organization work. In this way, Wuhan became the cradle of the 1911 Revolution.
The Literary Society and the secret revolutionary group at that time when * * * entered the meeting were active in Hubei, especially in the Hubei New Army. After their struggle, in 1911, five or six thousand people joined the revolutionary group, accounting for one third of the Hubei New Army, and became the main force of the uprising. Under the impetus of the League, the Literary Society and the * * * Progressive Association formed the leading organ of the uprising in Wuchang, with Jiang Yiwu, president of the Literary Society, as the military commander and Sun Wu as the chief of staff. On October 9th, Sun Wu and others made a bomb in the Russian Concession in Hankou, and when the Russian police heard the news, they searched all the flags, seals, manuscripts and lists of revolutionaries used in the uprising and handed them over to the Qing government. Revolutionary Peng Chupan and Liu Fuji were arrested and died, but Jiang Yiwu survived.
On October 1th, 1911, Governor Hu Guang imposed martial law in Wuchang, and searched for revolutionaries on a large scale. The revolution is in a leaderless state, and its form is extremely severe. Some revolutionaries contacted themselves and continued to launch the uprising. That night, Xiong Bingkun and Jin Zhaolong, revolutionaries of the new army engineering battalion, led soldiers to fire guns and rush out of the barracks, occupying the armory of Chuwangtai. The Wuchang Uprising that shook China and foreign countries broke out. After a night of fierce fighting, the revolutionary army occupied Wuchang.
Although the smoke of history has cleared away, we should never forget the revolutionary deeds of the martyrs. It is because of their dedication to the revolution that we have today's peaceful era. We young people should remember history, look to the future, study hard and acquire more knowledge. For the future, for the nation, for the people and for the motherland, make your greatest contribution.
