When the number of Chinese people increases, the control of the land shifts to them. Manchuria was the same.
I mentioned last time that Manchuria was originally a sacred land that was off limits to non-Manchu people. The tombs of the first to third emperors of the Qing dynasty are also located in Fengtian, now in Shenyang.
When the Qing dynasty was stable, there were no Han Chinese and the land of Manchuria was peaceful. However, when the Qing dynasty declines and Russia moves southward, security was disturbed.
The Han Chinese, a peasant who was taken by the Manchus, began to take land. In addition to Russians who fled the Russian Revolution, Han Chinese refugees and bandits also flow into Manchuria.
When Japan changed its era to Showa, warlords with private soldiers were all over the country in China.
It was around 1925. After the Russo-Japanese War, a person like the head of a bandit from Shandong gradually ruled Manchuria with Japan as a backing. This is Zhang Zuolin.
He hired private army and killed all those who oppose him for the sake of showing. The Manchus could not be blamed for any heavy taxes imposed by Zhang Zuolin.
Zhang and his son issued fiat money without gold reserves, picked up products from the inhabitants, and cultivated and bought and sold opium to feed the army.
Chiang Kai-shek was feeding his troops with a monopoly on salt and tariffs on imports and exports. Around 1927, Zhang Zuolin, who had advanced into Beijing, and Chiang Kai-shek had a hostile relationship.
Therefore, Zhang parent and child and Manchuria Railway will initially use each other. Under these circumstances, Zhang Zuolin was bombed along with the return train to Manchuria as recommended by the Japanese army.
All textbooks are supposed to be the work of the Kwantung Army in Japan. The diplomatic document released after the collapse of the Soviet Union says that it was a Soviet work.
Was Zhang Zuolin, who is indebted to Japan for the Communist International, an obstacle? Chiang Kai-shek, who was in conflict with Zhang Zuolin, presented his son to the Soviet Union as if he were a hostage.
In 1930, his son, Zhang Hsueh-li, marched into Beijing and made it the capital, nominally dividing the country in two with the Chiang Kai-shek regime in Nanjing.
Due to the circumstances of foreign powers, the Chiang Kai-shek administration in Nanjing was approved, but Manchuria has never been under the control of the Chiang Kai-shek administration.
Chang Hsueh-li was not a subordinate of Chiang Kai-shek, but an equal ruler who bisected the continent of China. Chiang Kai-shek had never set foot in Manchuria and could not understand the language.
And anti-Japanese activities will expand from China to Manchuria. These movements were backed by Protestant missionaries, Chiang Kai-shek's US advisory group, a US advertising companies, Comintern, and Chang Hsueh-li.
At this time, Japan had already become an enemy of the world. The South Manchuria Railway foreign bond issuance negotiations between Japan and JP Morgan Shokai had been crushed by US.
Chang Hsueh-li, who was in conflict with Chiang Kai-shek, soon approached Chiang Kai-shek. He could be excluded by the Soviet Union like his father if he was in constant conflict.
The minions of Chang Hsueh-li Army frequently interfere with trains on the South Manchuria Railway and terrorist attacks on Japanese people. Even the pro-Chinese diplomacy of Japanese Foreign Minister Kijuro Shidehara did not stop China's Japan-exclusion movement.
300,000 Japanese living in Manchuria are disappointed. There were a series of incidents that threatened the lives of Japanese people, such as the Wanpaoshan incident and the incident of Captain Nakamura.
The great powers, Comintern's conspiracy battle had begun on the stage of Manchuria.
In 1931, the Kwantung Army swiftly ousted Chang Hsueh-liang's army in an attempt to improve the situation in Manchuria at once before the Soviet Union intervened. This was the Manchurian Incident.
Chang Hsueh-liang's army was said to be 150,000 to 220,000 strong, but since they were dispersed throughout the country, they were defeated individually by the fast-moving Kwantung Army and the Japanese army that crossed the border from Korea, which was only 14,000 strong.
It was Lieutenant Colonel Kanji Ishihara, the genius Kwantung Army Chief of Operations, who elaborately created this operation plan over three years. And it was the Manchu people who were most pleased with this.
There were many people in Japan who supported this action by the Kwantung Army, and the Army received a large amount of support. The government also confirms.
And Manchuria was founded with the last emperor Puyi of the Qing dynasty as the head of state. Japan has helped.
As of 1939, Manchuria was approved by about 20 countries, including Germany, Italy, Spain and the Vatican.
At that time, the Soviet puppet state Mongolia had not approved anyone other than the Soviet Union.
With the disappearance of Chang Hsueh-liang's army that controled Manchuria, his control hd returned to the 3 million Manchu people, and he had only declared independence in his hometown, headed by the last Emperor Puyi of the Qing dynasty.
The Han people, such as Sun Yat-sen, who became independent from the Qing dynasty, are good, and should the Manchu people not become independent?
The Manchurian Incident and the second Manchurian founding are over. goodbye everyone.
