Chen Tianhua (1875~ 1905), formerly known as Xiansu, also known as Xingtai, also known as Guo Ting, alias Sihuang, was a member of Zhifang Group in Qingxin County (now Ronghua Township). My mother died young and my father was a teacher. I studied with my father when I was a child. Because my family is poor, I have done some small business to supplement the economy, but I still insist on studying. I often borrow books such as historical records from people, especially like reading legendary novels, and also like folk rap and playing ci.

In the 21st year of Guangxu (1895), Chen Tianhua moved to the county with his father and still made a living selling baskets. Later, he went to Zijiang Academy to study and exhibited "Twenty-four History" assiduously. In twenty-four years, Kao Ren's new school was deeply influenced by the reform trend of thought, and advocated holding a meeting without foot binding and became a supporter of the political reform movement. In the spring of 26 years, he was admitted to Yuelu Academy, the provincial capital, and his performance was among the best. At that time, a commander in Hunan knew his talents well and wanted to marry his wife. Chen imitated Huo Qubing's "Xiongnu still exists, and there is no home to return to", but declined politely, saying "I won't marry if the country is uneasy" (I won't marry until I become a poster country). The following year, I transferred to Qiushi College. Guangxu twenty-nine years (1903) first entered the provincial capital normal school. That spring, I received a public fee to study in the normal department of Hongwen College in Tokyo, Japan. Soon, every time Russia tried to occupy the three northeastern provinces, it triggered an anti-Russian movement, and the motherland was in a state of loss of sovereignty. Chen's bloody book was sent to schools in Hunan. Zhao Erxun, governor of Hunan Province, was also moved. He went to various schools to read it and published it in the official newspaper. He also ordered the governments, prefectures and counties to hold arms workshops, which made the morale of the anti-Russian movement in Hunan province even higher. Chen Tianhua actively organized anti-Russian volunteers and national education conferences in Japan. Also, "write a newspaper every day to warn the world." In the same year, he wrote two books, Suddenly Looking Back and Jing Shi Zhong, which, with the voice of blood and tears, profoundly exposed the crimes of imperialist powers invading China and the traitorous surrender of the Qing court, which swept the world and had a great influence. At the beginning of the following year, he returned to Changsha, participated in the organization of Huaxing Association, and plotted with Huang Xing to prepare for the Changsha Uprising. However, he was forced into exile in Japan and entered Tokyo Hosei University. At this time, Chen met Sun Yat-sen. In July of the 31st year of Guangxu reign, the League was established in Tokyo, and Chen Tianhua was one of the important founders. He served as the drafter of the emblem in the Secretariat and the editor of People's Daily, the organ newspaper of the NLD, and published political articles, current political review, China Revolutionary History, Lion Roar and other works, which aroused strong repercussions. 1 1 8th February (190565438+4th February), Chen Tianhua took part in the struggle against the Japanese government's regulations prohibiting overseas students in the Qing Dynasty. 1 1 month 1 1 day, he wrote a suicide note, determined to encourage Chinese people to "* * * patriotism" by death. /kloc-on 0/2, he threw himself into the sea in Omori Bay, Tokyo, and died for his country at the age of 30. On the first day of April of the following year, its coffin was transported back to Changsha by Huang Xing and Yu Zhimo. Regardless of the official obstruction, all walks of life decided to bury it in Yuelu Mountain. On the seventh day (May 29th), a funeral was held, and teachers and students from various schools in Changsha participated in it one after another. The funeral procession reached tens of thousands of people and stretched for more than ten miles. Xiangjiang mourned for it and Lushan bowed for it. The funeral procession crossed the river from Zhu and Xiaoximen. "It's summer, and the students are all wearing white school uniforms. Looking from Changsha City, the mountains are full of sorrow. " The army and the police stood aside and were moved by it undisturbed.

Chen Tianhua's article aims at exposing imperialist aggression and denouncing the Qing government as a "foreigner's court". He believes that "revolutionaries are also the holy medicine to save the world and save people", urging them to take up arms and calling for "holding a steel knife for ninety-nine, killing the enemy to stop". In "Looking Back" and "Jing Shi Zhong", he shouted loudly "Change the contract, restore political power, and be completely independent; Snow national humiliation, drive away foreigners, and return my crown "; Shouting "Let the people go forward, kill the foreign devils, kill the two Russian children who surrendered to the foreign devils", "overthrow the Qing government of the Westernization Institute" and "establish a democratic republic". His posthumous work was compiled into The Collection of Chen Tianhua.
