1, reform the military system and train new troops.
190 1 year, the Qing government abolished the military imperial examination, established military schools in various provinces, and trained new troops nationwide; Establish military schools in major cities across the country to train new army officers; Sending international students abroad to study military affairs; 1906, the Ministry of War was changed to the War Department. The military reform of the Qing government was objectively beneficial to the modernization of China's army, but the new army compiled by the Qing government did not play a role in maintaining the rule of the Qing dynasty. Many new troops joined the anti-Qing revolution and became grave diggers in the Qing Dynasty under the propaganda and encouragement of the bourgeois revolutionaries.
2. Reform education.
190 1 year, the Qing government set up universities, middle schools and primary schools throughout the country; 1904, the Qing government promulgated the "Regulations of Playing School", which was the first academic system in modern China published by law and implemented nationwide. It stipulates that formal education is divided into three levels: primary, intermediate and advanced. Children go to school at the age of seven, with five years in junior high school, four years in senior high school, five years in junior high school, three to five years in university and five years in Confucianism (research institute), which lays the foundation of modern education system in China.
1905, the Qing government abolished the imperial examination system, which was founded by the Sui Dynasty and continued for more than 1000 years. This is a great event in the history of education in China. 190 1 year, the Qing government encouraged students to study abroad, and those who succeeded returned to China for appointment. At that time, the number of students studying in Japan was the largest, and many foreign students accepted the bourgeois democratic revolutionary thought abroad and became an important force in the democratic revolutionary movement in the future.
3. Reform the economy.
1903, the Qing government established the Ministry of Commerce, and later changed it to the Ministry of Agriculture, Industry and Commerce, and formulated the commercial law, advocated encouraging industries, revitalizing businesses, and encouraged private investment in setting up enterprises and transportation. These measures objectively promoted the development of modern national capitalism in China.
4. Reform the law.
Starting from 1902, the Qing government revised the laws of the Qing dynasty with reference to the laws of western countries. 1905, the Qing government abolished beheaded torture, and in the middle of the year, it began to compile a new code. These measures are objectively social progress.
