ideal era

98 Advance 2

Feng Xiaoqi came out of the crowd with flashing daylight on his body. He was so young. The young man who had been hiding suddenly showed his edge and stood so different between these old people. Between his words, it was even more compelling.

Tang Hualong, Cai Fuqing and others passed on their eyes very tacitly, and they all closed their mouths.

Song Jiaoren knew that the Hankou revolutionaries were radical and met head-on, but he couldn't help but be surprised. Who doesn't want to defeat imperialism? But this matter can only be planned secretly. Who is as loud as you Hankou revolutionaries, for fear that the world will not know. There is no eternal enemy in politics, and the imperialist powers also have factions that sympathize with the revolution.

The People's Daily published many nationalist declarative articles, which aroused strong antipathy and panic among foreigners. The governments of the great powers are putting pressure on the institutions of the Overseas League, and the headquarters of the Central League in Shanghai is also under pressure from foreigners. Although the Alliance also hates imperialism, it also believes that imperialism also has a sympathetic revolution. So they hope to live in peace with the great powers.

Mr. Sun Yat-sen and other allies all have illusions about foreigners. After the Wuchang Uprising, Mr. Sun Yat-sen did not return to China for a long time in order to seek the support of Western powers. He recalled his thoughts at that time. At this time, I should try my best for the revolutionary cause, not on the battlefield, and the effect is even greater. Therefore, I decided to make diplomatic efforts first, and then return to China after the problem is solved. According to the situation of various countries at that time: the U.S. government took openness, equal opportunities and territorial preservation for China, while there was no overtituation of revolution, while American public opinion sympathized with me. In France, the government and the people have good intentions towards the revolution. Britain has 0 people's sympathy, while the government's policy towards China,

Only Japan's horse is the first. At that time, the trend of Germany and Russia was mostly inclined to the Qing government; while the people of our party and the government were less social, so their policies could not be changed. However, Japan is the most cordial to China, and its people's people do not only sympathize with me, and they still sacrifice their efforts to help the revolutionaries. However, the policy of his government is really unfathomable. According to the past, he was expelled from the country once and refused to land once, so he knew about China's revolutionary cause. However, after the Gengzi Treaty, that country could not act freely alone in China. In other words, there are six countries that are most related to China: the United States and France should sympathize with the revolutionaries; Germany and Russia,

is against revolutionaries; Japan has 0 people to express sympathy; and its government is against; Britain has 0 people to sympathize, and its government is undecided. Therefore, the key to my diplomacy is that it can be important for my success or failure, and it is Britain; if Britain is right, Japan can't be a problem. So I set off for New York to find a boat to cross the UK.

However, the complexity of the 1911 Revolution is far greater than that of the Western Assets and National Revolution. A hundred years have passed, and there is no conclusion. Mr. Sun Yat-sen thought about the 1911 Revolution in a pure Western way, and then made this doomed futile choice.

"I fantasize about the sympathy of foreigners. He is an unconfident revolutionary and an incompetent delusion. Republic, democracy is not based on the sympathy of foreigners, but the blood of comrades. Feng Xiaoqi and Song Jiaoren looked at each other angrily, but these young revolutionaries did not have so many concerns. They were determined to forge ahead. Under the influence of Li Xiang, he has long lost his illusions about foreigners. He continued angrily, "The Treaty of Nanjing, the Treaty of Shimonoseki, the Treaty of Xinchou... Is it not enough for you to recognize the true face of imperialism?"

Song Jiaoren was also furious, regardless of the reverse lip camera on the public street. "You Hankou revolutionaries don't even have the strength to fight against the Beiyang Army, and it is unwise to provoke a war with foreigners. It is to push the Chinese revolution to a dead end. There was a Gordon in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and today imperialism can create a second Gordon.

Song Jiaoren's words were completely out of patriotic fear, that is, he was worried that the chaos in Hankou would attract foreign interference, and even foreign interference. Li wanted to recover the Hankou concession and tariffs. Foreign countries used this as an excuse to participate in the collection of tariffs on the rest of China's ports.

Song Jiaoren remembered that he received a telegram from the headquarters of the Shanghai Central League at midnight and said, "The commissioners of the United Kingdom and France in the Shanghai Concession not only became appraisers and accountants overnight, but also became actual tax collectors. Moreover, according to the arrangement determined during the revolutionary period, the income of the alliance should be deposited into foreign banks and withdrawn only when the expenditure is spent. Because of the matter of Hankou, the alliance will be embarrassed by foreign banks in the operation of funds.

Song Jiaoren said that he was already happy later. He just wanted Feng Xiaozhen to understand the horror of foreigners. The muzzle of foreigners could not be blocked with faith and courage. Li Hongzhang reported to the court on his sickbed: In the past few decades, every time there is a provocation, they will suffer more losses. Last year's events were particularly hasty, creating a deep pain drama, and Bo Hai was shocked. Song Jiaoren, who knows the power of foreigners, knows that Li Hongzhang's posthumous speech is not exaggerated at all.

Feng Xiaoqi stared at his red eyes and did not listen to Song Jiaoren's painstaking advice at all. He opened his mouth to refute.

Huang Xing, who came back from selling newspapers, saw the two of them arguing at the door of the Manchun Tea Garden. Tang Hualong and Cai Fuqing also watched coldly. Huang Xing came over and interrupted Feng Xiaoqi, who was about to refute, and shouted in a low voice, "Are you blocking the door of the tea garden to sacrifice treasures? Go in and talk about it."

As the second-in-command of the alliance, Huang Xing is the only one who scolds the two at this moment. The group walked into the Manchun Tea Garden and climbed to the elegant room on the third floor facing the river. The elegant room on the third floor of the Manchun Tea Garden, like the foreigner's high-end club and salon, is a place where famous and famous people can go in Hankou.

The soft sound of exquisite copper bells hanging under the eaves is still pleasant. The river surface of Hanshui has returned to post-war calm, and sails have crossed from time to time. Only in Hanyang on the other side can we see the tragic situation of the day. Half of the ancient trees were burned dark, and many deep pits blown out by heavy artillery were left on the shore.

Song Jiaoren sat in the middle of the window, and Feng Xiaoyu also followed him. He insisted on understanding today. He sat down and said, "Mr. Song, what you are worried about is nothing more than the military strength of foreigners. You don't have to worry at all now. The warships arranged by foreigners in Hankou are all sunk in Hanshui. The foreigners have lost the support of military strength, and the privileges they have can't even be maintained against the weak China.

Military force has made the cause initiated by foreigners in China a reality. Its continuous deployment in China's land, rivers and coastal waters constitutes a strong support behind the formal and legitimate diplomatic measures, which are constantly used to safeguard the treaty rights and security of foreigners. Keep their personal and property safe. The existence of gunboats in inland rivers and treaty ports and larger naval vessels along the coast of China is a very casual explanation according to paragraph 52 of the Tianjin Treaty of 1858, which says: "British division ships have no other intention, or sailed into China because of theft, no matter what..."

Song Jiaoren smiled softly and laughed at Feng Xiaoyu's arrogance and arrogance. A small victory in Hankou did not hurt the strength of foreigners in China. For these young revolutionaries, he is willing to give careful guidance to help him analyze the military strength of foreigners in China.

In 1896, the total tonnage of the British navy moored in China reached 59,000 tons,

Russia's tonnage is close to this, France 28,000 tons, Germany 23,000 tons, and the United States 18,000 tons.

In 1908, the total tonnage of the "Royal British Detachment Fleet" reached 70,000 tons; there were 33 ships, including 4 armored cruisers, 2 second-class cruisers, and the other 27 smaller ships included inland river gunboats.

The use of or at least the threat of foreign gunboats is a common phenomenon in the "teaching cases" that occurred in the second half of the 19th century. In 1900, British gunboats sailed to Chongqing for the first time. In the first decade of the 20th century, French naval ships made a pioneering survey of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River to seek to expand their trade routes from their railways in Yunnan. The Germans moved around Poyang Lake, which caused great uneasiness among the British who believed that the Yangtze River Basin was their exclusive forbidden area. At the end of the 19th century, as the strategic naval bases for the concession of leased land - Qingdao, Lushun, Guangzhou Bay, Weihaiwei - enabled foreign cruisers and battleships to regularly come to Chinese waters.

In 1903, unlike the United Kingdom, the United States did not maintain a fleet of gunboats regularly stationed at key points in the Yangtze River. Perhaps once a year, the ships occasionally sent by the Asian fleet travel back and forth on the channel. The Yangtze River Patrol of the United States - officially the second detachment of the Third Squadron of the Pacific Fleet from 1908 to 1919 - had 6 to 8 old gunboats during World War I, while the British were driving 15 new gunboats. Most of the patrols in the early Republic of China were routine, and what the sailors were most eager for was to go ashore. But the ship is moored "to maintain the security of the rivers" and is undoubtedly out of the desire of the contracting powers to maintain their interests.

Foreign soldiers and police guards were more eye-catching in the early 20th century than in the last decades of the 19th century. Within several concessions, the city police force and international civil groups ("business groups") have developed. The business corps in Shanghai is the largest. In 1910, there were 59 officers (mainly British) and about 1,000 soldiers (half of them are British, and the rest belong to companies of 15 nationalities). The leased land taken from China in 1898 and the Xinchou peace treaty imposed by the great powers in 1901 formed a permanent and larger military existence.

According to this peace treaty, the great powers can maintain armed detachments in Beijing ("embassi district guard"), occupy key locations along the railway from Beijing to the sea, and station troops in Tianjin, excluding Chinese troops from this city. The number of British and French troops stationed in Weihaiwei and Guangzhou Bay is very small, but the total number of German detachments and naval detachments in Qingdao is 2,300.
