Sino-US relations are not peaceful, and the reason is naturally due to Americans. However, many public intellectuals still admire the United States.
For example, American Gao Xiaosong said: "The best big country for China is the United States. " Wuhan Writers Association Fang Fang Ms. Fang Fang said: "The Americans have the highest quality." Let's first say the sentence "The best big country for China is the United States"? Is this really the case? Has the United States never invaded China? The United States has hurt China at least 8 times.
01 The United States sells opium and economic invasion Qing Dynasty
The reason why the United States invaded China was relatively less because the United States was founded late and started late. When the Americans came to China, Britain, France, Russia and Japan had already taken the lead and defined their sphere of influence, but the United States had no chance. But the "open door" policy can also be regarded as aggression.
The United States began to import opium into China since 1805. From the past 30 years from 1805 to 1837, a total of 14,169 boxes of opium were imported to China (Shaoxi: Total figures in the appendix of the "Opinion of the United States on China in the 19th Century"). When Lin Zexu banned smoking, the United States did not hand over it, but instead adopted delays. For example, Qichang Foreign Exchange has 50 boxes hidden and not handed over. Although the United States did not directly participate in the Opium War , it sent warships to China to support Britain in launching the war.
02 During the two Opium Wars, the first treaty signed between China and the United States was the unequal treaty.
When Britain and France launched the Second Opium War , the United States used two-faced methods, showing neutrality and friendship with China, while actively supporting Britain and France's aggression. American writer Daniet couldn't stand such despicable behavior. In his book "Americans in East Asia", he said: " has never played a more shameless role in international politics." As before, the United States used both soft and hard methods, and without any effort, it tricked the Qing Dynasty into signing the " Tianjin Treaty ". Countless facts have proved that the United States is not only an invader, but also a "snake that turns into a beautiful woman", which is much more cunning than the "snake that reveals its fangs". ''
03 Help the Qing government suppress Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement
04 Eight-Nation Alliance's War of Invasion of China , the United States was also a member
Commander-in-Chief of the Eight-Nation Alliance Wadesi later admitted that "all the losses suffered by the Qing Empire this time will never be found, but the numbers will definitely be extremely important." On September 7, with the signing of the " Xinchou Treaty ", China has since completely become a semi-colonial semi-feudal society, bringing unprecedentedly painful disasters to the country and people at that time.
05 noon 895 War , the United States helped Japan transport troops
06, on the condition that the Soviet Union sent troops, separated Outer Mongolia without China's permission,
Stalin occupied China's Tangnu Wulianghai , the entire Heixiazi Island , forcing Outer Mongolia to break away from China's independence, etc., which caused great harm to China.
During the War of Resistance Against Japan, due to the great casualties of the US military in battles such as the Midway Island Naval Battle. Roosevelt hoped that the Soviet Union would send troops to reduce the casualties of the US. In order to urge the Soviet Union to send troops to resolve the Japanese Kwantung Army. Without notifying China, Roosevelt of the United States signed the " Yalta Agreement " with the Soviet Union on February 11, 1945 (also known as " Yalta Secret Comprehensive ") involving Outer Mongolia and China's sovereignty. It stipulates: "The current situation of Outer Mongolia (Mongolian People's Republic of ) should be maintained."
This is a serious act of aggression against China by the United States.
07 supports warlord separatism and helps Chiang Kai-shek fight civil war
Beiyang warlords During the rule of the rule of the country, the United States and Britain supported warlords such as the Zhili ( Feng Guozhang , Cao Kun , Wu Peifu ), Yunnan (Longyun), Guangxi ( Li Zongren ), and long-term separatist warlords such as the Anhui and Fengtian gangs supported by Japan, which brought serious disasters to the Chinese people!
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, in order to realize its global strategy, the United States implemented a policy of supporting Chiang Kai-shek against the Communist Party, paid money and guns to help Chiang Kai-shek fight the civil war, and took the opportunity to sign new unequal treaties with the Kuomintang government and gain new privileges of aggression. American goods poured into the Chinese market like a tide, dealing a fatal blow to national industries, which is one of the reasons for the collapse of the national economic zone. The Americans appear to be fair and mediate the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, but in fact they are on the side of the Kuomintang.
08 Korean War , the United States bombed China's border
In addition, the United States refused to return Diaoyu Islands despite the provisions of international documents such as the " Cairo Declaration ", but handed it over to Japan, causing the Diaoyu Islands to fall into Japan's hands and it is still difficult to return China.In the conflict in the South China Sea, the United States also secretly supported , Philippines, , Vietnam and other countries to compete with China for territorial sovereignty and economic resources.
In short, America does invade China less, but it hurts a lot. Due to objective reasons, the United States did not directly annex the Chinese territory of the Qing Dynasty, but its harm was no less than that of Tsarist Russia and Japan after the Meiji Restoration.
