Life of the characters

Qin Lishan (1877-1906) was born in 1877. His father, Qin Wenbing, was a famous criminal master in the County Department. Qin Lishan is intelligent, studious and good at writing. In the spring of 1898, he was admitted to Shanhua county school as the second place. At that time, the reform movement was surging in Hunan. Qin Lishan was imbued with new learning and new style. He often went to the south society to listen to lectures. He respected Kang Youwei, Liang Qichao, Tan Sitong, Tang Caichang and other reformers. In the autumn of 25 years after the 1898 coup, he went to Japan at the call of Liang Qichao to study in Tokyo Datong University. When I was in school, I had contacts with some progressive international students and members of Xingzhong society.

In the summer of 1900, Qin Lishan went to Tianjin to contact the boxers. He wanted to change the slogan of "supporting the Qing Dynasty and exterminating the foreign countries". In Wuhan, he joined the independent army formed by Tang Caichang and other institutes, and served as the commander of the former army. In July, he went to Anhui Province to preside over the uprising of the independent army all the way to Datong, and fought fiercely with the Qing army for several days. After his failure, he went to Singapore and learned that Kang Youwei had embezzled public funds, so he broke up with him. Back in Tokyo, Japan, Chen Yulong and Liang Qichao were equally blamed. So far, he turned from being close to Kang and Liang to Sun Yat Sen, and wrote an article in Qingyi daily to ridicule Kang and Liang Baohuang's behavior. In April of the 27th year, he contacted Ji Yihui, Shen Xiangyun and others, and founded the first revolutionary journal, national daily (monthly), with the support of Sun Yat Sen. The newspaper strongly advocated the theory of revolutionary anti Manchuria, and the wording was very passionate. Each issue imported more than 2000 copies of Shanghai, affecting the southeast provinces. It also organized small groups of the National Association, whose purpose was to publicize the two major doctrines of revolution and hatred against Manchuria, and planned to unite overseas Chinese and mainland patriots for a common purpose. Later, he and Zhang Ji organized the Xingya association to advocate the simultaneous revolution and the establishment of a Republic between China and Japan. Qin Lishan showed great respect for Sun Yat Sen. he once publicized Sun Yat Sen's quality as a leader among foreign students, introduced Zhang Taiyan, Zhang Ji and other foreign students to meet and make friends with Sun Yat Sen, and early connected Sun Yat Sen with the students studying in Japan. He also discussed the issue of land with Sun Yat Sen and Zhang Taiyan, and advocated that "the land of the whole country should be taken up and redistributed", "regardless of men and women, those who have civil rights or above can get a limited land", showing the intention of exploring the reform of social land system earlier.

In the twenty-eight years (1902) of * * Guangxu, in March, a total of ten people, including Qin Li Shan and Zhang Taiyan, launched the "two hundred and forty-two year commemoration of the subjugation of the country," calling on people to learn from many anti Qing intellectuals more than 200 years ago and fight against the rulers of the Qing Dynasty. This patriotic action shocked the world of studying abroad at that time and set a precedent for the rise of patriotic revolutionary groups in the world of studying abroad in the future. In the winter of that year, he returned to China from Tokyo, worked in mainland China Daily in Shanghai, and founded Young China Daily independently. Later, because it was short of capital, he gave up running newspapers and devoted himself to the Games in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and Guangdong. As a result, he was repeatedly wanted by the Qing Dynasty.

In the spring of the 31st year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu, Qin Lishan left Hong Kong and went to Myanmar via Singapore to publicize the anti Qing revolution to overseas Chinese. During his stay in Myanmar, he advised Zhuang yin'an, the leader of the local overseas Chinese, to give up the idea of protecting the emperor; he wrote such articles as "warning the compatriots of Myanmar" to publicize the revolution; he participated in the reform of the Chinese righteousness school in Yangon; he also wrote 24 chapters of "preaching revolution", only 16 chapters of which were published in Yangon new daily, to publicize the anti Qing thoughts and revolutionary strategies among the overseas Chinese.

At the end of spring and the beginning of summer in 1932, Qin Lishan lived in Lashio for a period of time, contacted with domestic and foreign countries, and wrote more than ten poems. Soon after, Xu Shiyin (Zan Zhou), the leader of Myanmar's overseas Chinese, left Myanmar for Ganya, Yunnan. Before his departure, he wrote a preface to the history of Myanmar '. When it came to Ganya, schools were set up to educate the children of ethnic minorities with national righteousness, and propaganda against the Qing revolution was carried out among the local upper chieftains of ethnic minorities, so as to open up a base for the activities of the Chinese League in Yunnan. On October 11 of the same year, due to acclimatization and miasma, he died in Ganya. He was only 29 years old. Qin Lishan left home at the age of 19. In the past ten years, he took the anti Qing revolution as his ambition and "set a good example for the revolutionary party.".
