The anti-British struggle of the people in the northern suburbs of Guangzhou represented by Sanyuanli village
184 1 On May 30th, 2000, the anti-British struggle of the people in the northern suburb of Guangzhou, represented by Sanyuanli Village, was a spontaneous anti-aggression struggle of the people of China. From a military point of view, it has its own characteristics and significance. From the British point of view, the Sanyuanli Volunteer Army's anti-British campaign was a part of the Guangzhou campaign and a continuation of the battle for the northern highlands of Guangzhou on May 25. The anti-British struggle launched by Sanyuanli people was made by China people to fight against the invaders. Therefore, this is the first armed struggle of China people against western aggression. The anti-British movement in Sanyuanli is a spontaneous struggle of the people, so there is no formal organization, no fixed organizational system or even a name. Those who take part in the anti-British struggle are generally called just men, and those who are selected from the countryside to take part in the battle are called just men or brave men. The anti-British team has no title and consists of volunteers from various towns and villages. To commemorate it, it was called the Volunteer Army in history, but it was not actually named. The initiator of Sanyuanli Volunteer Team is Zhou Enshe, which is located in Zhou Enbao 'aokou, Nanhai County and consists of Nanhai 18 villages. When the British army landed and attacked the fort outside the north gate, it was passing through the Zhou 'en community school area, and the British army was the first to harass the community school along the way. Zhoubao was the earliest and deepest area damaged by British invasion, so Zhoubao took the initiative to fight against Britain earlier. Before the Sanyuanli Anti-British War, Zhou En Society and the boys in the computer room fought against the British in the West Fort. On May 28, the British army went out of Sifang Fort to harass Sanyuanli. Wei Shaoguang, a vegetable farmer, was the first to bear the brunt, and several British troops did evil with their bare hands. Subsequently, Wei Shaoguang and other villagers in Sanyuanli asked Zhou En to learn to help the anti-British. Liang Tingdong, the head of the association, called on all associations in the north of the city to learn to resist Britain in order to seek more support. In the northern suburb of Guangzhou, the corps of 103 villages and towns or the detachments of villages and towns are basically led by social organizations, and the main figures in charge of social organizations are local landlords and squires. Therefore, regardless of whether the corps and sub-regiments fought bravely against Britain, they were basically under the control of landlords and squires, and only a few lower-class people played some organizing and leading roles. Wei Shaoguang, a vegetable farmer, and Yan, nicknamed Ding Quanchang, are more famous. These two men are not only brave in fighting, but also have a certain prestige among the masses. Their bravery may have had a major impact.
