These are four old photographs taken in the late Qing Dynasty, and the prisoners in the photos are the main perpetrators of the "Gutianzhai Case" in 1895, they are Du Zhuyi, Zheng Huai, Liu Xiangxing, and Zhang Chisi;
These four people were originally just honest peasants, but due to the incompetence of the late Qing Dynasty and the defeat of the war with the great powers, the late Qing government completely disregarded the safety of the people at the bottom in order to repay the debts, and the tax revenue was aggravated again and again;
These four people were forced to be helpless, and they were really cornered, so they rose up and created the ancient Tianzhai, however, no one expected that this zhai gathered nearly a hundred poor people in about three years;
On August 1, 1895, more than 300 jaihui members besieged the missionaries gathered in Huashan, killing 11 British missionaries, Mr. and Mrs. Shi Jibo, wounding 5 people and burning two houses;
As soon as this incident occurred, it shocked China and foreign countries, and this incident also became an excuse for the great powers to once again oppress the late Qing Dynasty;
In order to curry favor with the great powers, the Qing government immediately pointed the spearhead at its own compatriots, and it was not long before the main culprits and nearly a hundred members of the Gutianzhai case were arrested;
Later, the Qing government beheaded the main offender for public display, while most of the others were sentenced to life imprisonment or enlisted for life;
Looking at old photos and understanding the story behind them is undoubtedly one of the best ways to wash your mind and reminisce about the past.
