[1119 Korea returned to China]
A bunch of reporters laughed because, first, the British journalist had terrible Chinese, and Hua Huang was fluent in English. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In addition, as the Emperor said two years ago, North Korea was the province of China, which is indeed something known to the whole world, but it has never been recognized by the state, so the laughter of many foreign reporters is ill-intentioned and laughing at the Emperor.
President Moe wasn't angry.
Now the demeanor of the cute president is not so easy to get angry.
"Korea's position in East Asia is very important, and it is of great significance for China to consolidate its control over Siberia and Japan. The British journalist then asked.
President Meng said indifferently: "Since it is a province of Huaguo, it must pursue the same policy as Huaguo." The general policy strategy must be consistent with that of the Central Committee of China. ”
"Then, what will happen to the relations between China and Britain and France?" As soon as the words of the British journalist came out, everyone was concerned about this issue.
Meng President Zhengse said: "We will continue to maintain good relations with Britain and France, we are all members of the South Seas Treaty member organization, is a very good friendly country, and our system, has not much difference with Britain and France, European countries, most of them are friends of China, we just hope that Asian countries, can also get common treatment, do not be threatened by force, that's all, on this basis, even if China is homegrown, also welcome various countries to do business." ”
A bunch of reporters hurriedly recorded Hua Huang's words, and this passage is obviously very important.
Soon, the leader of the British Conservative Party and the current British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli received the news from President Moe.
In fact, the British don't want to be too stiff with China, in their opinion, China is different from Tsarist Russia, they originally supported Japan because they wanted to use Japan to contain Tsarist Russia, and now Tsarist Russia has been beaten down by China, and it is unlikely that China will continue to fight across Europe and Asia.
Moreover, the main trade of the British came from India and South Asia, and as long as the Chinese navy did not develop, it would be difficult to cause trouble for the British in these areas, and they just wanted to let the Chinese know who the big brother was.
Hua Huang's words actually have the meaning of softness.
President Meng is not a neurotic, and when it is time to be soft, he still knows how to be soft, especially when there is no competition of interests.
The whole process of the public trial was light and light, Concubine Min didn't react at all, she was very bland, she sat quietly all the time, the jurors were all Chinese officials, and the presiding judge was all the North Korean royal family in the theater, there were people from the Dayuanjun faction, and there were also people from the neutral faction, but basically they were all against Concubine Min's policy.
Concubine Min advocated friendship with Japan, which was her biggest fault.
Huaguo just grasped this point, no matter whether Korea was a vassal state of Huaguo or a province of Huaguo, Concubine Min had dealings with the Japanese, which was a great crime of betraying the country.
During the three-hour trial, there were video materials and voice recordings, and more than 200 witnesses were presented, most of whom were officials of Concubine Min's faction, and more than 10 of them were Japanese spies.
Seeing that the evidence was so sufficient, the common people who were present at the hearing were all indignant, whether the Koreans were willing to migrate or not, this was a problem with China, a contradiction with their own superior units, but with the Japanese, it was a hostile contradiction, a historical hostile contradiction, and these were two contradictions of different natures!
The final result was that the execution was carried out in public three days later, and three days were given to correct it, and if anyone felt that Concubine Min had been wronged, they could appeal to the government of China and North Korea within these three days.
No one appealed, and Concubine Min was shot in public.
There seems to be no repercussions at all, not many people are sad, and not many people are happy.
Dayuan Jun set up a state funeral supervisor to deal with the funeral of Concubine Min, changed the Ming Zheng Hall into a place to look at the cry, and the Celebration Hall into a funeral hall, and appointed Hong Shunmu, Li Zaimian, Zhao Yongxia and other ministers and prime ministers for the state funeral.
There were also former Korean ministers who opposed the state funeral, but Daewonjun ignored it.
Funeral for the queen has never happened in the 500-year history of the Lee dynasty in Joseon, only once.
President Meng is chartered, and still gives Concubine Min according to the gift of the state funeral, although the royal family of North Korea no longer exists, but they still recognize their past titles, King Li Xi of North Korea, and still have the royal title. It's just that there's no power.
After announcing the state funeral, Dayuanjun immediately disbanded the assembled rebels, restored the original administrative structure and military establishment, stripped the Min family of all important government positions, and appointed those who supported him as ministers, and reorganized a ruling body centered on himself.
This agency is the one that is mainly responsible for the migration, and the migration must all end within three months, which is also what President Moe meant.
Contrary to the expectations of the rebel soldiers, he not only ignored their urgent demands, but even ordered his men to be on standby, and to punish them severely if the rebel soldiers rioted again.
After President Meng ended the problem of Concubine Min in an extreme way, he began to implement his own reform plan.
After he purged the Min faction and the pro-Japanese faction, there were no more Koreans in the new Korean government, and most of the North Korean officials had been assigned to posts in the three new provinces of Siberia and Central Asia.
President Meng has a big new policy, all of them are the people of Huaguo, and it is easy to manage.
With the entry of the central treasury of Huaguo, the drawbacks of Concubine Min who had been minting money because of financial difficulties were also swept away.
President Meng seems to want to sweep away the corrupt politics accumulated in the era of Concubine Min, and Huaguo once again raised the banner of reprimand.
On August 1, 1877, eight days after the mutiny, Li Shuchang, the Chinese minister to Japan, sent a telegram to Zhang Shusheng of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs under the president's chamber to inform him of the rebellion.
Li Hongzhang immediately made a suggestion to the Chinese government: China should send military ships to observe the changes, inspect the situation, and handle the situation.
Two days later, Minister Li Shuchang sent another telegram to report Japan's movements.
When Zhang Shusheng conveyed the telegram to Li, he attached an excerpt from the question and answer between Zhou Fu of the Tianjin Customs Department and Kim Yun-sik, a Korean courtier who was in Tianjin at the time, and according to Kim Yun-sik, Japan would certainly take the opportunity to intervene and coerce the Japanese if they had killed them.
China was asked to send 1,000 troops and troops to assist Korea in quelling the rebellion.
Kim Yoon-sik was a figure of Concubine Min's faction who advocated enlightenment, and Concubine Min, who was hiding in the house of Min Ying-sik in Janghowon, secretly sent someone to contact him, asking him to urge Hwa-kok to send troops to Korea to suppress the rebel soldiers and help him restore power.
The mutiny was basically an internal affair of Korea, but because it hurt the Japanese and stormed the Japanese embassy in the course of the riot, it caused serious unease in China.
Owon-kun's opposition to the founding of the country could lead to the disruption of the balance of power between the great powers and China in Northeast Asia, and in particular, it might lead Japan to take advantage of the opportunity to send troops to Korea, thereby undermining China's strategic concept in the Northeast Sea Frontier.
Therefore, China must react to this.
This is not only the need of national defense, but also the moral responsibility of Hua to protect Korea from the aggression of other countries, not to mention the fact that Daewonjun has expressed through Kim Yoon-sik that he urges Hua to send troops to quell the rebellion.
From the answers of Kim Yun-sik and Zhou Fu, it can be seen that he thinks that the mutiny is the same as last year's gathering of Lee Jae-xian and others to plot a mutiny, and Lee Jae-xian is the son of Daewon-jun, which means that Kim Yun-sik implied to Hwaguo that the mastermind of the mutiny may be Daewonjun Lee Siying.
Although it is doubtful whether this statement is accurate, it is obvious that taking Daewonjun away can guarantee that China will continue to implement the policy of "razing and razing" in Korea, and will also calm down the incident and prevent Japanese intervention.
Therefore, before sending troops to Korea, China made a decision to impose sanctions on Japan by force.
In the case of the integration of domestic affairs and foreign affairs, the protection of the subject country became a pretext for the Chinese state, and the Chinese began to send troops into Korea to quell the civil strife and prevent Japan from trying to occupy Korea.
The 3,000 garrison troops in the Beijing area of the Chinese state, led by Ding Ruchang and Wu Changqing, arrived in Seoul under the escort of four warships.
Prior to this, about 1,000 or hundreds of Japanese troops had arrived at Incheon.
There was no clash when the two sides met at Incheon.
In order to stay ahead of the Japanese army, Ma Jianzhong led the second outpost of the barracks to Seoul before the Chinese army arrived in Seoul.
When Ma Jianzhong entered the capital of North Korea, he met with Dayuanjun and first spoke with kind words to relieve his doubts.
In order to prevent the Japanese envoy from suddenly breaking up, Ma Jianzhong returned to Incheon the next day to meet with Hanafang Yoshiko, telling China that it was ready to eliminate the internal troubles for Korea first, so that the country could become independent, and then negotiate affairs with Japan.
On the issue of countering the chaos in Korea, the Chinese state and the Chinese army have gained the initiative.
Daewon-kun has been effectively administratively implemented under the appointment of President Moe, and all Koreans are moving in an orderly manner.
As long as all the Korean people loyal to China in this land are willing to emigrate, the question of China in Korea will become extremely simple.
That would be all that would be left to be cleared.
The reason why the previous issue of purging was complicated was that the Chinese army could not kill people indiscriminately, and it would be very difficult to distinguish whether the Koreans were loyal to the Chinese state, as well as the Koreans and the Japanese.
After the vast majority of North Koreans have evacuated North Korea, the problem is completely simple.
"Your Majesty, now that my father has made it clear that he will return to the Chinese country, and all the Koreans are migrating in an orderly manner, why haven't the Japanese withdrawn? What do they want? Lee Tae-hee asked, leaning next to President Moe.
President Meng smiled: "They want to continue to fight with us, but now it is becoming more and more difficult, the attitude of the British, as well as the attitude of the French, has become more and more neutral, I think how can the Japanese continue to fight with our Huaguo?" ”
