Chapter 2 the beginning of the story

I set the starting point of the story in the late Qing Dynasty when Daoguang and Xianfeng were in power.Many people will ask, it is obvious to talk about the history of the Republic of China, why start from the late Qing Dynasty? Before answering this question, let me ask you a question: How did the Republic of China come about?Why did the late Qing Dynasty suddenly move towards the Republic of China? Some people may answer that the founders of the Republic of China were all born heroes. They were born with extreme resentment against the corruption and numbness of the Qing Dynasty, so they followed the historical trend and held high the banner of anti-Qing, showing a thorough revolutionary nature, and so on.

If you think so, it must be said that what you know is not the whole truth of the matter.If you want to find out the whole truth and understand the ins and outs of the Republic of China, then we have to start with the late Qing Dynasty. First of all, the founders of the Republic of China grew up in the late Qing Dynasty, the power structure of the Republic of China came from the late Qing Dynasty, and even the root of the disease of the Republic of China was brought from the late Qing Dynasty. Secondly, the demise of a dynasty is not a matter of a day or two, nor is it something that can be explained clearly in a sentence or two.

Moreover, the late Qing Dynasty did not go downhill all the time, and there were also "Tongguang Zhongxing" in the meantime. In addition, when the late Qing Dynasty went downhill, it was not without struggles. It was also trying to save itself through reforms. However, several reforms such as the Reform Movement of 1898 and the establishment of a constitution in the late Qing Dynasty all ended in failure. The crisis has been accumulated for a long time, reform has been unable to solve the problem, and revolution has become the only solution! Therefore, the constitutionalists, all kinds of revolutionary factions, as well as the heroes of the rivers and lakes, people from all walks of life took turns to fight, all wanting to save China with their own ideas.It's a pity that the big guy's skill is not enough, and he ends up going mad.It was in such a state of bewilderment that all parties worked together to create such an interesting Republic of China.
