Temple Street, March 1919.

After the sinking of the Belarusian shallow water gunboat "Naspetynov", the confrontation on Temple Street further intensified. And the confrontation at this time turned into a confrontation between China and Japan!

The shallow gunboats of the White Russians, immediately after the sinking of the "Naspetynov", felt a great panic and withdrew.

Beat! We must resolutely show our strong determination to fight!

Either you bow to the enemy or let the enemy bow to you!

There is no other option, absolutely nothing!

On March 6, just as the confrontation between the two sides was further escalating, the Second Support Fleet of the Republic of China arrived at Temple Street under the command of Lu Yixuan, the captain of the "Hai Chou"!

On March 13, the 3rd Support Fleet with the battleship "President" and the cruiser "Northern Expedition" as the main force arrived!

The hard-line attitude of the Chinese government was once again undoubtedly revealed in the "Temple Street Incident"!

The battleships that arrived one after another, all flying the same flag:

The five-color flag of the Republic of China!

This symbolizes the dignity of the Chinese Navy and the dignity of the Chinese government!

But after the arrival of the second and third support fleets, the Chinese soldiers who had insisted on being on Temple Street for almost a year were all in tears!

It's coming, its own fleet is finally here!

His own government has never given up on himself, whether it is the previous Beiyang government or the current national government. They are always keeping an eye on any changes in the situation in Russia, and they are always trying their best to give themselves all possible help!

Behind them, the country that stood, called:

China!

The arrival of the two support fleets has greatly increased the morale and confidence of the Chinese Navy!

In particular, the huge "President" is a symbol:

China also has its own battleships!

The Chinese Navy has the determination and the ability to face any challenge!

Although the Chinese Navy is still inferior in the comparison of the strength of the two sides, they have no fear at this time!

On March 14, at the request of the mediation team of the intervention forces, China and Japan resumed negotiations.

The focus is still on the four-point demands put forward by the Japanese side, but Zhang Xiaoyue, as the plenipotentiary representative of the Chinese side, refuses any of the conditions!

"There is no substantial evidence that these things have anything to do with China." Although Zhang Xiaoyue's voice was not loud, it was loud: "It is ridiculous and ridiculous to ask us to take responsibility for an incident that does not exist. I have said to Mr. Shibamizu Daisa many times that as long as the Japanese side has sufficient evidence, we will definitely severely punish the officers and soldiers who caused the incident! But what is ridiculous and unbelievable is that Mr. Shibamizu Daisa actually asked us to provide evidence, and if we don't produce evidence within a week, then they will sink our ship, is there a more unreasonable request in the world? ”

Zhang Xiaoyue deliberately emphasized the four words "one week".

The "deadline" set by the Japanese has long passed, but the Japanese have not used force.

In fact, the truth is very simple, if you are hard, it will be soft! Especially after the arrival of the Chinese support fleet, the Japanese definitely did not dare to take the initiative to provoke war!

Everyone knows that once the war starts, there is a high probability that a full-scale war will break out!

"Are you insulting me and the Great Japanese Empire?" Shibamizu Kiyozaburo said with a gloomy face: "In order to maintain the dignity of the Imperial Japanese Navy and the country, we will not hesitate to fight!" ”

"In order to maintain the dignity of the Chinese Navy and the country, we will also not hesitate to fight!" Zhang Xiaoyue said-for-tat.

Seeing the tension between the two sides, David David, the head of the mediation team, hurriedly said:

"I want everybody to stay calm, and now that it's happened, it's important for everyone to think about how to fix it, not just babbling and arguing here."

As he spoke, he set his eyes on Shibamizu Kiyozaburo: "Mr. Osa, given the current situation, I don't think it's favorable to the Japanese side. Evidence, and most importantly, evidence. The Chinese side tried to deny that they had done the things that you made accusations, so in such a situation, we need the Japanese side to come up with tough evidence to refute the Chinese, but now it is very regrettable that you obviously did not. ”…,

He paused there and then continued: "As for asking the Chinese side to present evidence, I think it's pretty ridiculous. ”

Wilton continued: "Ladies and gentlemen, I think that these things that happened in Temple Street were completely done by those red elements, and they have nothing to do with the Chinese. The situation in Russia is very complicated, and the White Guards have suffered a very heavy defeat under the attack of the Red Elements, and I think it is pointless for us to dwell on these matters now, and it is better to focus on how to deal with the Red Elements in Russia and restore calm in Russia as soon as possible. ”

The attitude of the United States and Britain has been very clear, and what they advocate is "to make big things small, and small things." "Instead of procrastinating indefinitely.

originally thought that Shibamizu Kiyozaburo would oppose loudly again, but surprisingly, after a period of silence, Shibasui Kiyozaburo nodded silently:

"Stabilizing the situation in the Far East is what the Great Japanese Empire wants to see, and the Great Japanese Empire is a benevolent country"

Zhang Xiaoyue's nose let out a soft "hum", and Shibasui Kiyozaburo continued to say as if he didn't hear it:

"Now that the two sides are at a stalemate and cannot be resolved in a short period of time, then I suggest that this matter be put on hold for the time being and discussed later!"

This remark stunned everyone.

What's wrong, what's going on here? How did the attitude of the Japanese people change 180 degrees all at once?

Even Zhang Xiaoyue and the members of the Chinese delegation looked at each other, what kind of mystery was Shibamizu Kiyozaburo playing there? Is there some conspiracy involved?

In fact, at this time, Shibasui Kiyozaburo had bitter words in his heart. He was reluctant to end the incident, but the serious situation in Japan forced him to resolve the incident as soon as possible.

It turned out that Japan's new Prime Minister Takashi Hara was assassinated a few days ago!

On March 13, 1920, Hara arrived at Tokyo Railway Station to attend the Conference of the Seiyoukai. The guards were on guard.

At 7:30 a.m., a bell rang, and Hara Kei left the stationmaster's office and walked towards the ticket gate. The ticket gate is a narrow passage drawn by an iron fence that allows only travelers to walk alone. The guards asked Hara to walk in front, and they lined up to follow closely behind. Looking around, the guards were relieved to see that only the staff wearing railway uniforms were waiting for the prime minister, and there were no more idlers. Yuan Jing moved forward steadily, and the moment he stepped into the ticket gate, he saw a railway clerk suddenly pull out a dagger from his arms and stab it into Yuan Jing's left chest. Yuan Jing was caught off guard, his body was crooked, and he fell in a pool of blood.

The murderer was caught red-handed, and his name was Koichi Nakaoka, a wrench worker at Otsuka Station, a fanatical right-winger.

The assassination of the new Prime Minister Hara within days of taking office has thrown chaos into Japan. In view of the current situation, Japan has no intention of breaking out a full-scale war with China, and must resolve the Temple Street incident in the shortest possible time, and can make appropriate concessions without losing "decency."

This is the only option for the Japanese side!

The chaos in Japan, the massive reinforcement of Chinese warships, the hostility of the Western powers to China, and the favoritism towards China have all contributed to the passivity of the Japanese side at present.

When the negotiators were confused, Shibamizu Kiyozaburo continued: "But we think that Chen Shiying, deputy commander of the Chinese fleet, is no longer suitable to stay here, and we think that it is the best choice for His Excellency Deputy Commander Chen to return to China!" ”

Zhang Xiaoyue was retorting, but Chen Shiying on the side suddenly smiled slightly: "Okay, I can accept this request!" ”

The Japanese side has begun to make big strides back, and now Chen Shiying knows that it is time to sacrifice himself.

In fact, it is not a sacrifice, Chen Shiying has already received an order to return to China. After leading his fleet, which had been stationed on one side of the whole place, it was time to return home to the cheers of the people.

And this is equivalent to giving both sides a step down!

Be tough when you should be tough, give in when you should give in, and before the decisive battle between China and Japan is fully prepared, Wang Hengyue will definitely not start the war lightly.

And Japan also has this mentality! …,

Chen Shiying's family has been a scholar for generations and has produced seven jinshi. His great-grandfather Chen Mingchang and grandfather Chen Yimou were both lifters. His father, Chen Jinghe, is in Renzhi County, Jiangsu, and his mother, Mrs. Cai, gave birth to four sons and one daughter, and Chen Shiying is the youngest. Chen Shiying's brothers all studied and took the road of the imperial examination, but Chen Shiying was admitted to the Nanjing Jiangnan Water Master School.

In 1905, he graduated with honors from the fourth driving class of the school. After graduation, he went through ships such as "Jian'an" and "Hairong". When Wuchang rebelled, Chen Shiying, who was the first mate of the guns of the "Hairong" ship, fired the first shot of the navy's uprising!

During his stay in Temple Street, Chen Shiying lent a side gun of the "Jiang Heng" ship, a Green gun of the "Lichuan" ship, and 21 shells to the Soviet Russian Red Army. The Russian Red Army used this artillery to break through the Japanese consulate, killing dozens of Japanese soldiers and capturing more than 130 people.

In April 1920, Chen Shiying led four ships to Harbin.

Because Chen Shiying led a ship to sail north, endured hardships, defied difficulties, and made outstanding achievements, he also displayed an awe-inspiring integrity in the "Temple Street Incident," and won the sympathy and admiration of his colleagues in the navy.

The Government of the Republic of China specially awarded him the "Wenhu" medal in recognition of it.

The Temple Street incident ended in such an almost bizarre way. During this incident, the Chinese fleet sank the Belarusian gunboat "Naspetynov" and succeeded in forcing the Japanese to make significant concessions.

This is a military victory for China, as well as another major diplomatic victory.

But both China and Japan are actually very clear that war between the two countries will come sooner or later!

If you don't fight, it's enough, and a dozen will inevitably affect the survival of the two countries!
