Qin Shihuang wanted to live forever, and sent Xu Fu and others overseas for many times to find a way to live forever, but all failed. Not only that, Qin Shihuang also ate many fake elixirs many times. We all know that all the so-called elixirs in ancient times contained heavy metals, so in 2 10 BC, Qin Shihuang died of illness, and Hu Hai acceded to the throne under some conspiracy, that is, Qin Ershi. Qin Ershi is both foolish and cruel. After he became emperor, the people's corvee tax burden was heavy, and the criminal law also made the people miserable. Many people were wronged and implicated in death, so in the eyes of the people, the politics of the Qin Dynasty was extremely vicious tyranny, and the people's resentment was also very great.

That is, in the autumn of the first year of Qin Ershi, Chen Sheng and Guangwu, who were farmers, were sent to Yuyang to guard the border, and more than 900 people went to osawa Township. According to research, it is today's Huaihe River Basin. It rained heavily at this moment, so I couldn't go on. I stayed for many days. When the Huaihe River rose, they naturally couldn't get through, so they missed the time to report to Yuyang. In the state of Qin, this is a felony to be beheaded. Faced with the threat of death, Chen Sheng and Guangwu led the garrison soldiers who committed capital crimes to kill the officials who escorted them to the uprising.

This is the historical background of Chen Guang Uprising.

According to research, osawa Township, also known as Shegutai, is located in Shegutai Village, Xisipo Town, Yongqiao District, Suzhou City, Anhui Province.
