Causes of Wuchang Uprising
(1) Sichuan Road Protection Movement was the fuse of Wuchang Uprising. Initially, the Qing government allowed the Guangdong-Han Railway and the Sichuan-Han Railway to be owned by enterprises. Later, it was announced that the railway would be nationalized and then mortgaged to foreign countries, which touched the interests of many people. Therefore, the railway protection movement has a broad mass base.

(2) The role of literary societies and * * * associations in Hubei New Army. The Literary Society and the * * * Council have carried out in-depth and meticulous work in Hubei New Army. Before Wuchang Uprising, there were more than 5,000 members of Literary Society and * * Society, accounting for more than 1/3 of the total number of Hubei New Army at that time.

(3) Give a careful plan in advance. Before the uprising, a general meeting of all units was held, with about 65,438+000 participants. The military action plan was discussed, and the tasks, action targets and routes of each unit were defined. Before the uprising, the general headquarters was suddenly destroyed, and the news of all the troops was cut off, but everyone could still cooperate with each other and act in unison, and basically achieved the predetermined steps and goals, which was inseparable from the careful deployment and full preparation before the uprising.

The success of Wuchang Uprising was by no means accidental. It is inseparable from the long-term meticulous work of revolutionaries in the new army and the careful preparation before the uprising, and it is inseparable from the social background of the road protection movement to achieve success.
