readx; When the 27th Division of the Third Army conquered the 203rd Heights, it also brought about a great change in the secret negotiations between China and the two countries that were going on in London. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

If Chen Jingyun really agreed to this condition, it is estimated that the country will immediately turn the sky upside down, and the number one traitor will have to wear it for the rest of his life.

Moreover, the reason why Chen Jingyun launched this war was not to take back the interests of Lushun and the South Manchurian Railway, if it was said that after several months of fighting, it would be in vain, and the sacrifices of tens of thousands of soldiers would be useless.

Britain, as a mediator, also had a headache about this, and although China said that although the two countries agreed to negotiate, the asking price of both sides was a lion's mouth, and looking at the appearance of the negotiators of the two countries, it seemed that they were still waiting, waiting for the end of the Lushun war.

He said, "I want to break the teeth of the Chinese army in Lushun, and China wants to completely establish a victory after capturing Lushun, and this makes it impossible for the peace talks between the two sides to make actual progress before the Battle of Lushun ends."

After conquering the 203rd Heights, the 27th Division continued to march and successively conquered a number of fortresses guarded by the Yue Army in two days, while in the northeast of the Lushun Fortress, the 36th Division also successively conquered the Longshan Fortress and the Songxie Mountain Fortress, in addition to the 5th Division also conquered a number of fortress areas.

In this general offensive, which had lasted for ten days, although it was not as quick as a battle, the units of the Third Army did advance steadily and step by step, slowly compressing and repelling the more than 30,000 troops in the Lushun fortress.

In addition to the large-scale offensive on the ground, the bombing of the air force has never stopped, and the air force bases dominated by the Weihaiwei naval base have sent a large number of bombers to Lushun every day to bomb, although it is said that "since the first large-scale bombing of Lushun in May, it has reinforced a lot of planes to Lushun, but the number of these reinforced planes is too small, and it has not been able to have any effect at all, and it was basically shot down by the F2 fighters of the Chinese Air Force as soon as it took off. In addition, at that time, both the Chinese army and the Chinese army focused their efforts on Korea, and it was said that "the army air force sent its main combat planes to the DPRK, and with the fall of Korea, more than 100 planes of the army air force were also destroyed."

In the early days, these anti-aircraft firepower, which was mainly composed of machine guns, also caused great trouble to the bomber units of the Chinese Air Force, but the Chinese Air Force did not blindly lower the altitude to carry out precision bombing, but adopted a high-altitude carpet bombing, and the bombing targets were mainly the barracks and material warehouses in the port area, and the naval aviation units that coordinated the operation put the bombing targets on the transport and supply ships called 'Ben'. Although the torpedo bombers of the naval aviation were powerless against those maneuvering warships with high speed, they were still very easy to deal with transport ships with only about ten knots. In a short period of time, although the navy has increased its air defense capability by increasing the number of machine guns, its main focus is on those capital ships, and it has nothing to do with these transport ships.

Under the multi-faceted cooperative attack, coupled with the intention of the domestic upper echelons to conduct peace negotiations, this also made Lushun's morale low to a certain extent, and after the 203 heights were conquered, the morale was even lower, and the low morale, plus after being besieged for several months, there were many loopholes in the fortress defense line, so that after the 203 heights were broken through, the battle situation in Arthur was sharply corrupted, and within a few days, the Chinese offensive troops could already rush to Port Arthur, Although the remnants of the more than 20,000 Japanese troops did not surrender, it was only a matter of time.

The inaction of the Lushun front army made the negotiators in London feel the pressure and were forced to make certain concessions in the negotiations, while the Chinese representatives were also forced to make certain concessions under the pressure of the British, and at this time the peace talks between the two sides could be regarded as entering a practical stage.

Chen Jingyun was looking at the secret telegram sent by Gu Weijun in London, while tapping his fingers on the table, and next to him was Shi Zhaoji, the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

"Although it is said that Lushun can be taken back, but this said, 'I still don't give up, hmph, I want to take back North Korea, but I don't want to hand over Taiwan, how can there be such a good thing!'" After reading the telegram, Chen Jingyun said to Shi Zhaoji: "I said last time that there is a bottom line in this negotiation, and Lushun must take it back, and Taiwan must also fight for it." As for the status of the DPRK, it can be appropriately conceded, and as for the reparations, it is dispensable! ”

As for what results can be achieved in this war, Chen Jingyun himself has expectations in his heart, first of all, this Lushun will definitely be taken back, and secondly, he will strive to take back Taiwan. In addition to the above two points, the issue of North Korea's status and reparations is not so important.

As for the Chinese Navy, although it has been defeated, it is basically impossible for them to take the initiative to return Taiwan, and with the current strength of the Chinese Navy, there is basically no need to think about crossing the sea and landing to force themselves back, and if you want to get "Ben to exchange Taiwan back, you have to pay a certain price, such as returning North Korea to Yue."

However, based on the strategic security needs of the northeast region, it is impossible for Chen Jingyun to directly return the DPRK to the former and continue to let the latter station heavy troops in the DPRK, which is unacceptable to him. And if we don't return the DPRK to the DPRK, it is obvious that I will not send Taiwan back in a daze.

North Korea and Taiwan, can only choose one, from the perspective of China's own strategic security, it is obvious that the threat of North Korea is greater, but in fact, considering the strength of China's army, as long as a certain amount of heavy troops are deployed in the northeast, it is said that after another war breaks out, it is completely possible to drive the North Korean army into the sea again in a short period of time, but if it is replaced by Taiwan, it will not work, and no matter how strong the army is, it will not be able to swim through the Taiwan Strait!

Moreover, although the DPRK used to be a vassal state of China, it is not a territory directly under it after all, while Taiwan is China's inherent territory, and from this point of view, Taiwan must also be regarded as a priority target, and it is even acceptable to use the DPRK under its control in exchange for Taiwan when necessary.

However, even if the DPRK is returned to the DPRK, it is impossible to send the DPRK back so directly, let alone let the Yue army station troops on the Yalu River again.

Based on various considerations, Chen Jingyun simply applied the situation on the Korean Peninsula in later generations, but directly established a two-state reading force in North Korea and said, "I will definitely have to adjust it, and don't expect to say at that time, 'I would have exchanged Taiwan back, but it should not be a big problem to set aside a military buffer zone in Korea to ensure the strategic security of China's three northeastern provinces.'"

In the final analysis, Chen Jingyun wants to exchange Taiwan with North Korea, so naturally there will be no good thing to be able to get Taiwan back and make North Korea read.

When Chen Jingyun put forward this idea, he said, "When the present side heard that Taiwan was going to be exchanged for North Korea, they were also a little hesitant. However, considering that North Korea has been lost and Lushun is about to fall, he said, "This aspect is also relieved."

When both sides had agreed on a general framework, the negotiations on the details went smoothly, and in order to show the sincerity of the negotiations, China suspended its attack on Arthur on September 16.

On the 18th, the diplomatic negotiations between the two countries signed the Sino-London Treaty in London, the main contents of which were: "This is to return the Lushun lease and Taiwan to China, and the South Manchurian Railway in the northeast is transferred to the China Railway Company!" These two points are the interests that China has withdrawn, and in order to recover Taiwan, the Chinese side must withdraw from the DPRK after the treaty is signed, and the issue of the status of the DPRK is jointly decided by the DPRK and the Korean people, which is actually a tacit acquiescence to the special interests of the DPRK.

In order to avoid the possibility of a military conflict between the two countries on the Korean Peninsula, the 150-kilometer stretch from the Yalu River to the northern part of the DPRK is used as a military buffer zone, and neither side is allowed to deploy armed forces in this area.

The Lushun issue, the Taiwan issue, and the North Korean issue are basically the main disputes between the two countries, and when these three issues are preliminarily resolved, then the next thing is some side effects, such as the commercial and trade part of the treaty, China has withdrawn the penalty for this product, and promised to have the same trade rights with China as other countries, and the same is said to have the same high tariffs on Chinese products, and promised China to enjoy the same trade rights.

The two battleships that were sunk in Port Arthur were still owned by the battleship Ise and the Shoko, and after the war, they were salvaged by the organization and returned to China.

However, there was no word in the treaty such as war reparations, and even when China proposed to make "the payment of living expenses for the more than 10,000 prisoners of the Japanese army, it was refused" by this word, which was an excuse and reason not to give China any war reparations. No matter how much this indemnity is, as long as it involves this word, it has basically become synonymous with betrayal of the country, so a group of people said, 'This high-level will not agree to pay a dime in compensation no matter what.'

After the signing of this treaty, there was still a large-scale protest against the treaty, and Yamamoto Guarden, who had formed the second cabinet, was forced to announce his resignation, and the cabinet of Yamamoto fell again. However, it is said that 'opposition in the country is opposition, but this treaty has been signed, and it cannot be reversed.'

As soon as the treaty was signed, the Chinese army and a large number of Chinese nationals began to evacuate Taiwan, and China's 43rd and 44th Divisions landed on Taiwan under the escort of the navy, along with a large number of administrative officials. At the same time, the Chinese troops stationed in the DPRK also withdrew from Korea and retreated to the north of the Yalu River, and said that "Ben landed in Korea from Pusan and Pyongyang again."

It is worth noting that on the eve of the withdrawal of the Chinese troops stationed in North Korea, a South Korean Liberation Army led by the Provisional Political Axe of the Republic of Korea in Shanghai was also formally established and began to be active in the military buffer zone in the north of North Korea.

The Treaty of London was met with great opposition in China, but in China it attracted large-scale enthusiastic celebrations, and the recovery of Arthur was expected by the Chinese people, but it was a surprise to many people to be able to take Taiwan back.

After the signing of the Treaty of London, Soviet Russia scolded and said, "I am a soft egg, and on the other hand, I also took the initiative to find China and Russia and asked for a ceasefire again!"

After the Soviet army and the Sino-Russian coalition fought in Omsk for more than a month, although both sides fired a large number of shells, but in fact neither side made much progress, after the end of the war, it is normal for the Soviet army to stop the pace of attack, although the heart is aggrieved, but the Russian Republic, which is not strong in itself, still accepted the second armistice agreement very happily, and China, as a third party, has no reason to fight alone, so it agreed to sign the second armistice agreement.

In late September, the East Asian War, which had been lively for half a year, finally came to an end!

However, although the war ended, and the Sino-Soviet and Russian armistice agreements were signed, which seemed to be able to guarantee peace for hundreds of millions of years, in fact, the confrontation between China and Russia did not stop, and it was said that "this army has put forward a reconstruction plan and asked for the formal formation of 30 standing divisions, and this navy has formalized the construction plan of Kii-class battleships when continuing to build the Tosa and Kaohsiung, and the two new Yaodi-class battleships of the Chinese Navy have also started construction one after another during the war. This situation made Britain and the United States strongly oppose, demanding that since the war between the two countries was over, then they should continue to fulfill the Washington Naval Treaty, but they said, "Because two battlecruisers were sunk, then they are willing to abide by last year's Washington Naval Treaty, and it is okay to continue to limit naval armaments, but they must be allowed to continue to build the Tosa and Aiyan, and this naturally aroused strong opposition from China and the United States, and the Chinese Navy felt deeply insufficient in the war that broke out not long ago. In addition, a previous Sino-Chinese war has greatly boosted China's confidence, in the words of naval boss Sa Zhenbing: "It's not that we don't have the money to build ships, why can our fleet only have 150,000 tons instead of more?" ”

So it is also a refusal to continue to fulfill the Washington Naval Treaty and continue to build two Yaodi-class battleships!

In the face of another naval expansion, the United States also had to restart the naval expansion bill again, and the United States moved so that the British could not do it, and the current naval situation seems to be back to two years ago, and all countries have to gather in Washington again to negotiate in order to limit naval armaments.

And this time, the Chinese Navy will never be satisfied with the tonnage ratio of the last time!
