清王朝转衰后,秦州一如全国,统治者横征暴敛、欺压盘剥、徇私舞弊,使社会矛盾激化,民主思想随之传播。在革命党人黄钺、陈养源等的努力和推动下,随着武昌起义和全国革命的蓬勃发展,秦州起义终于爆发了。秦州起义后,革命党人随即成立军政府,实行民主改革,结束了清王朝在秦州的统治,清朝在甘肃的统治也很快倒台。袁世凯夺权后,秦州革命党人被迫妥协,解散军政府,取消独立,起义宣告失败。但秦州起义对推动甘肃、陕西乃至于全国革命都具有重要意义。 After the decline of the Qing dynasty, Qinzhou, like the whole country, ruled by exasperation, oppressing and exploiting, practicing favoritism and corruption, intensified social conflicts and spread democratic ideology. Under the efforts and impetus of revolutionaries Huang Kui and Chen Yangyuan, with the Wuchang Uprising and the vigorous development of the national revolution, the Qinzhou uprising finally broke out. After the uprising in Qinzhou, the revolutionaries immediately set up a military government, implemented democratic reforms, ended the rule of Qing dynasty in Qinzhou, and the Qing government’s rule in Gansu soon came down. After Yuan Shikai seized power, the Qinzhou revolutionary members were forced to compromise, dissolve the junta and lift the independence, and the uprising failed. However, the Qinzhou Uprising is of great significance to promoting the revolution in Gansu, Shaanxi and even the whole country.
