Controversy over the influence of the Hui uprising in Shaanxi and Gansu.

The History of Cambridge, China in the Late Qing Dynasty records that "at the end of May (Gregorian calendar), a Hui village near Huaxian County was burned by the Han people, which led to a large-scale conflict between Han and Hui", and attributed the responsibility for provoking the conflict to the Han people. Zuo also pointed out that "the trouble of Muslims in Shaanxi is due to long-standing grievances, and the cause of the trouble is actually caused by Han people." However, due to the conflict, the Hui people were more organized than the Han people, and because many of them were brave warriors, they had the absolute upper hand before the arrival of the Xiang army and slaughtered millions of Han people village by village with superior troops. From conflict to this level of slaughter, responsibility and cause and effect are complicated.

Hua county's Draft County Records Volume III; : "Since the Hui people cut bamboo in the holy mountain, the state shepherd Pugui returned to the Han Dynasty and taught,' When the Han people were injured, it was ten to one, and when the Han people were injured, it was one to ten.' Qin Ying, the captain of the fast class, and the Hui people were also angry and went to court, and they were more and more anxious to change. Later, Bai Xiangsheng, head of Huashan Mountain, and Zhang Yinglan, head of He Yi, arrested 17 Hui people in the wheat field. When the spies were sent back to Bai Quan, the Hui people crossed the north one after another, and the Qinjiazhai and beaches were burned out, which led to great disaster for the Hui people. "
