Sanyuanli Incident : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sanyuanli Incident
The Sanyuanli Incident was a military conflict between regular troops of the British Army and an irregular force made up of Chinese militia and local citizens that took place around Sanyuanli village on the outskirts of Canton (now Guangzhou) on the 29May 1841 after the Second Battle of Canton at the time of the First Opium War (18391842). Regarded by the British as a minor skirmish, to the Chinese it is widely regarded as the first example of a spontaneous uprising by the Chinese people in response to the actions of an invading foreign power. ==Background== On 25May 1841, British forces under Major-general Hugh Gough left their transports at Qìnhăi (沁海) some north west of Canton and prepared to storm the city. By the evening of the next day they had captured four Chinese forts and stood ready to attack the city walls. Instead, word arrived that the Qing authorities had agreed to British demands for compensation and the withdrawal of troops such that the planned assault was put on hold on the morning of the 27th.
