Chapter 105: Rejection of Russia
The Manchu court was discussing the preparation of sending troops, and at this time in the capital, there were still some people who seemed a little strange. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 InfoThey are the Russians, these Russians are the Russian envoys sent to the capital of China, and they are here to negotiate with China about the northeastern border.
Because since the Qing Dynasty, China has always had a lot of territorial contradictions with Russia with Russia's eastward expansion. However, the strength of both sides was limited, and the Manchus could not effectively control the land of Siberia, and from the Tang Dynasty onwards, it was only nominal control. As for Russia, it is no better.
China and Russia have always had contradictions, so Russia sometimes supported the Dzungar Khanate to make trouble for the Manchus. However, because Siberia was too far away, the Russian whip could not effectively support the army in the Far East. As for China, the same is true, it cannot effectively support from logistics, if you want logistics, you must cross the Great Khing'an Mountains forest, so that the logistics supply is enough to make China bird blood.
A negotiated settlement of the territorial issue is the only possible way for both sides. Originally, it was at this time in history that Russia and China really divided the territory, which was still an equal treaty, because both sides had no way to hold each other, especially because neither side could effectively control that land, so it was most appropriate to settle it through negotiations.
However, because of Tan Feng's arrival, there was an accident.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, I heard that in the Far East, you have rebelled? Do you want us Russians to send troops to help? And I heard that the main force of the other side of the rebellion was mainly cavalry. I think our Russian Cossack cavalry is the best in the world, and we can mobilize a part of the Cossack cavalry to help in the battle, what do you think? Said the Russian emissary.
Emperor Yongzheng heard what the Russian envoy said, and then took the initiative to ask: "What conditions do you have?" ”
Of course, Yongzheng felt that it would be better if there was Russian cavalry support. Of course, Yongzheng is not stupid, he knows that there is no free lunch in the world, and the other party is not a vegetarian, so it will not be so easy to work for you in vain.
"It's very simple, Your Majesty the Emperor, we just hope to be able to move twenty kilometers south when the territory is divided in the future, what do you think?" The Russian emissary replied.
"Humph!" Emperor Yongzheng snorted coldly, obviously very unhappy, and said: "Your Excellency, I believe that although our Great Qing Dynasty has encountered a rebellion, it is also caused by the lack of troops in our Manchuria. We just need to move troops from the country next, and hundreds of thousands of troops will be easily deployed. So this rebellion, we can solve it ourselves, and we don't have to worry about it in your country! ”
Emperor Yongzheng scolded in his heart: "If I let you interfere, my emperor class is really embarrassing." This is our domestic matter, and you Russians don't need to interfere. Besides, we're not there yet, and we don't want your help. It's hard to move twenty kilometers at once, and with my Qing Dynasty algorithm, it's forty miles! These are the land of ancestors, and I can't give it to you! “
Yongzheng is not one of those cowardly emperors in the late Qing Dynasty, and China in the Yongzheng period has not yet fallen to that point, and the idea of cutting the land at every turn. The Russians want to take advantage of the opportunity to pick up the bargain, and this is not inevitable and easy to agree.
For a continental civilization like China, the land is very sensitive, and if it is easy to cut the land at every turn, it will be a dignified and dignified emperor. Now that the Manchus have not yet reached this point, they have not yet reached this point of ceding land, so it is naturally impossible to agree to the conditions of the Russians. Of course, what is more important is that the Northeast has a different meaning, the Northeast is the land of Longxing belonging to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the land here is very precious in the eyes of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and it cannot be ceded at will.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, I think we ......" what else the Russian envoy wanted to say.
Yongzheng shook his head and said, "Your Excellency, Messenger, don't say more, send off!" ”
The Russian envoy was half-forcibly taken out by the Manchu imperial guards, and Yongzheng scolded: "What is it? If you want to send troops so little, you just want me to cut off the land, is it really easy for me to bully the Qing Dynasty? This is our own business, and we don't need you Russians to take care of it! ”
After the departure of the Russian envoy, he was also very embarrassed. Because he came to this Chinese capital, didn't he come to discuss with China about the territorial division of the northeast region? Well, now there is a rebellion in the Northeast, and the territory in the Northeast is occupied by the Chinese rebels, which is the most embarrassing.
The territory did not belong to the Manchus anymore, what do they say.
"General Long Kedo, I just told you the Chinese emperor that we want to send troops to help you China, and we will send thousands of cavalry to help you, and then we only need to move the border twenty kilometers hard. But your Chinese emperor didn't agree? ”
When Long Keduo heard this, he also scolded secretly: "Accompany, what kind of thing, you actually want to take advantage of the opportunity?" Sending thousands of troops wants us to cut the land of our ancestors, when our brains are in water, right? ”
Long Keduo also complained in his heart, very depressed. Before, he was in charge of discussing land with Russia, but he didn't expect it to be so sad, he hadn't negotiated the land yet, and he hadn't signed an agreement, and there was a rebellion in the northeast. even annihilated tens of thousands of Eight Banners and occupied the Northeast and Eastern Mongolia, which is not a small amount.
In this case, there is no need for him to discuss territorial matters with Russia, because the Manchus no longer border Russia in the northeast, what can you do?
Therefore, if they want to negotiate, it must be established that they can come over to negotiate after they put down Tan Feng's rebellion. But these Russians actually want to take advantage of the fire to rob, and send thousands of troops to move the border for 20 kilometers.
I am in the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty, but it is not the Guangxu period, your uncle's when I am the Emperor of the Yongzheng Dynasty of the Qing Dynasty is the Guangxu Emperor, it is really unbearable.
"Your Excellency, you don't need to say more, I don't have the idea of ceding land casually in the Qing Dynasty. Please take care of yourself! Long Keduo said angrily.
Russia then approached the Imperial Court, the ministry responsible for diplomatic relations with Russia. But when people heard that they were going to cut the land, they blasted it out. Who would dare to agree to this kind of land mooring? This is going to be stinky for 10,000 years, not to mention that "I Daqing" Yongzheng is not "my Daqing" Guangxu, and the country has not fallen to the situation of cutting land.
What's more, the Northeast is the "land of ancestors", so you can't just mess around!
