Chapter 633: Qingdao Strike!

Chapter 633: Qingdao Strike!

The outbreak of the "Changfulun Incident" made a big storm begin to brew quietly in Qingdao.

The Japanese aggression, atrocities, and plundering in Qingdao had already accumulated endless anger in the hearts of Qingdao people, and even if there was no "Changfulun Incident", it would have erupted sooner or later.

And this incident is just a catalyst.

On October 20, the day after the "Changfulun Incident", Qingdao No. 2 Normal School was the first to act.

On the same day, all the teachers and students of the school went on strike and marched on the streets, shouting for the punishment of the murderers, an apology from the Japanese courtesy, and the immediate release of the "Changfu Ship" and the seizure of all crew members.

Danshi's march was immediately attacked by the Japanese police, many teachers and students were injured, and 37 students were arrested.

On the same day, the Chinese government immediately lodged a serious protest, demanding that the Japanese side immediately release the arrested students, launch an investigation into the "Changfulun incident", and give justice to the deceased.

Masasuke Akiyama, the Japanese civil administrator in Qingdao, rejected the request and announced on the same day that Japanese officials had opened fire under proper circumstances. Once there is another unauthorized demonstration in Qingdao, it will be suppressed at all costs!

This is tantamount to a challenge to all Chinese!

A storm sweeping through Qingdao is quietly underway

On the 21st, the whole day was calm, which made Masanosuke Akiyama and Kenichi Oshima, commander of the Japanese garrison in Qingdao, breathe a long sigh of relief.

In their view, under Japan's high-pressure policy, the Chinese finally gave in

On October 22, 9th year of the Republic of China, the storm suddenly rose!

Eight schools in Qingdao jointly went on strike!

Under the bayonets of the Japanese, the teachers and students took to the streets without hesitation and launched a huge protest march!

This parade was cheered by all the Chinese people in Qingdao!

The Japanese police fiercely dispersed the procession, and the teachers and students united with the people of Qingdao to fight the most tenacious against the Japanese police!

Some of them were wounded, they were bleeding and fighting for their weapons in the hands of the police, and some of them were knocked down, but they quickly got up from the ground and continued to stand arm in arm

No one can defeat them, and no one can defeat them!

When the Chinese are united, they are invincible liliang!

Teachers and students are not isolated, the entire Chinese in Qingdao stand with them!

On the 23rd, all crew members and dock workers in Qingdao announced a strike! On the same day, all salt workers in Qingdao declared a strike! On the 24th, Qingdao China Yarn Industry United Chamber of Commerce announced an indefinite strike after urgent discussions! On the 25th, Qingdao Textile United Chamber of Commerce announced a strike and a strike

On the 26th, Tsingtao Brewery announced a strike; The Qingdao Mining Chamber of Commerce announced a general strike

On the 27th, the strike was carried out by the most **: Toyota Oil Plant, Qingdao Water Company, Real Estate, Lianye Rubber Factory, Sifang Power Plant, Suzuki Silk Factory, and Qingdao Port Tower Crane Company Chinese workers jointly announced a general strike

28, all workers, businessmen, teachers and students in Qingdao entered the vigorous strike, strike, and school strike!

Turn Qingdao into a dead city!

The Japanese are panicked and confused!

They know that once they crack down, it will provoke even greater anger in Qingdao, which will inevitably give the Chinese government an opportunity to take advantage of!

Danshi's current situation makes them helpless.

The Japanese were also temporarily thrown into chaos

At this time, Wang Hengyue, the president of the Republic of China, was preparing to take Shanghai as the first stop for inspection. When he heard the news, the first thing he said was:

"Here we go! The show is finally on! ”

"According to the current situation, when the president arrives in Shanghai, the movement in Qingdao will arrive. When the president arrives in Ningbo, the Japanese will take retaliatory action! ”

"Tell Duan Qirui and Cao Kun to prepare to take action at the same time. Also, a large amount of food was procured in solidarity with the striking workers, who had to eat, and their families could not go on strike hungry. Wang Hengyue tidied up his clothes.

Once a full-scale strike, strike, or school strike has begun, there is no possibility of stopping until the goal is achieved.

And until then, he will be silent.

It's a terrible silence before an outburst

Vladivostok.

Yang Sen looked in the mirror and looked at his straight military uniform: "Has Qingdao started to move?" ”…,

"Yes, it's moving!"

"Since the end of the Northern Expedition, our regiment has been changed to the Fourth Legion, and there has been nothing to do. The expedition to Russia used Liu Zhaocheng, Wu Peifu, and Zhang Zuolin, and I thought that Heng Shuai had forgotten about my Yang Sen. Without Xiangdao, Heng Shuai gave me the glorious task of recovering Vladivostok and Jiangdong Sixty-four Tun! ”

Yang Jie smiled: "Zihui, don't be too proud, in Vladivostok, there are Russian troops, Japanese and British troops, this battle is not easy to fight." According to our plan, from Vladivostok to the entire Jiangdong 64 Tun, Vladivostok will be the focus of the focus! ”

"The easy battle Heng Shuai will not give me, and the difficult battle Heng Shuai will use me!" Yang Sen didn't seem to care: "If you don't establish merit at this time, when will it be?" Will it wait until the Russians are all defeated? ”

Yang Jie smiled.

In fact, he said that his heart was just as excited.

Secretly dispatched the Fourth Army Corps, and then suddenly announced a high-profile operation to recover the territory, the whole plan was completed in one go, without any drag, which is completely consistent with Heng Shuai's character.

This honor of recovering the land falls to himself and Janssen!

Now, they are waiting for Duan Qirui and Cao Kun from Shandong to make a move

The protests in Qingdao entered a new ** on October 30th!

Almost all the Chinese in Qingdao were swept in. Not a single machine was running in the factory, not a single store was open in the market, not a single student was in the school, not a single worker was working on the docks

Power outages, water outages, a huge backlog of orders were there, and the cargo on the ship could only pile up there

On November 1, the China General Chamber of Commerce announced:

In view of the current special situation in Qingdao, all Chinese manufacturers in Qingdao have signed contracts with domestic enterprises, all of which have been extended indefinitely, and no losses will be pursued!

And in China's major cities, large-scale solidarity with Qingdao is also unfolding at the same time!

Donation campaigns were held on the streets of major cities to support the people of Qingdao in their resistance to Japanese atrocities, and marches and petitions were held to call for immediate government intervention.

What is strange is that Wang Hengyue, the president who has always been the first, inspected the whole country at this time, and handed over the work to his prime minister Wang Qinglu.

Wang Qinglu summoned the Japanese envoy to China several times in succession, lodged protests one after another, and warned Japan that it must resolve the situation in Qingdao as soon as possible and within a short period of time, otherwise the Japanese side will bear all the consequences.

At the same time, a serious warning was issued that once the Japanese side adopts force to suppress it, it may force the Chinese government to send troops to Qingdao to do something that no one wants to see in order to safeguard the interests of the Chinese people in Qingdao!

In fact, the current situation is the last thing the Japanese side wants to see!

A large number of goods are backlogged in Qingdao, and all Japanese manufacturers have stopped production, and the loss of Japanese merchants every day is huge!

Japan has opened 299 enterprise stores along the Qingdao and Jiaoji railways, of which 36 are more than 500,000 yuan. At this time, there are less than 30 Chinese industrial and commercial enterprises here, and only 2 are more than 500,000 yuan!

In contrast, who doesn't want a full-scale strike!

The Japanese government, as well as Japanese businessmen in Qingdao, constantly put pressure on Masasuke Akiyama, the Japanese civil governor in Qingdao, to solve the problem immediately in the shortest possible time.

At the same time, the Japanese government also began to put pressure on the Chinese government:

In order to maintain a stable situation in Qingdao, the Chinese government has the responsibility and obligation to assist in resolving the Qingdao issue.

Premier Wang Qinglu was quick to respond:

Qingdao has always been the land of China! On September 2, 1914, the Japanese army landed at Longkou and occupied Qingdao, which lasted more than two months, bringing great disasters to the urban and rural people of Qingdao. On September 27, the Beiyang government at that time protested to Japan because the Japanese army invaded China and occupied the railway, but Japan ignored it. The Japanese army burned, killed, looted, and did all kinds of evil. In Pingdu alone, the local people were forced to hand over 1,000 pigs and sheep, 5 million catties of grain, 2,000 chickens, and 500 carts within five days. and announced the punishment order: those who obstruct all actions of the Japanese army will be beheaded. Cut the wires and cut off the dumpers. If you don't know the guilt, harbor the bandits, and punish them severely. If one person in the village commits a crime, the whole village will be beheaded. The Japanese army in Qingdao, demolished a large number of civilian houses, built fortifications, forced a large number of Chinese to dig trenches, erect power grids, and implement light control. This is a naked trampling on China's sovereignty, and this is a naked occupation of China's land!

Representatives of the Chinese government did not sign the Treaty of Versailles and refused to recognize the Japanese occupation of Qingdao! Therefore, the squadron has the right to enter any Chinese land it wants to enter, without restrictions from any country!

The Chinese government has the right to make its own judgment and solution to the affairs on Chinese soil, and to safeguard the interests of the Chinese people, and it is also not restricted by any country!

If the Japanese side threatens the Chinese government in a violent way, then the Chinese government will not bear any form of responsibility for all the consequences caused by this!

Wang Qinglu's declaration, Yijing is very clear and unambiguous about the attitude of the Chinese government:

In order to safeguard its sovereignty, the Chinese government will not be intimidated by any country or any force and will not back down!

Although, up to now, President Wang Hengyue has always been silent on the Qingdao issue!
