About This Novel
Gangs in the Qing Dynasty originated from "brothers of different surnames" organizations, and later developed into "hui party", which "formed alliances and established parties". After the Tiandihui emerged during the Qianlong period, a large number of Huihui parties with various names emerged. During the reign of Xian Tongzhi, Sichuan Tunlu developed brother into Laohui, also known as Pao brother or Honggang. After water transportation was diverted to the sea route, the Grain Ships and Sailors Gang merged with smuggling gangs such as Qingpi, Guangdan, and Fengke to form the Qinggang. As a result, the party expanded into a gang. The existence and development of gangs posed a major threat to the Qing regime. In addition to using force to attack them, the Qing authorities also formulated laws and regulations to punish gangs, and continuously added, deleted, and revised them. This curbed the development of gangs to a certain extent, maintained the stability of the Qing Dynasty's regime and ideological security, and provided useful reference for how to govern society today.
