After "stealing" China's Dragon Boat Festival, dragon boats, zongzi, traditional Chinese medicine and Confucius, South Korea has moved on Chinese cities again. On a South Korean history**, South Korean officials openly declared: South Korea has nine capitals in China!
What's going on? What are the nine capitals of South Korea in China?
South Korea** officially claims that nine of its capitals are in China. South Korea, which has always been known for "stealing", is doing what tricks this time?
If you look closely at the official statement of South Korea, people will find that South Korea's claim that there are nine capitals in China in history is not a fabrication, but a fact.
If we want to talk about the nine capitals set up by South Korea in China, we have to mention the history of Korean exile.
In 1894, after the Qing Dynasty lost to Japan in the Sino-Japanese War, Korea was renamed "Korea" and changed from a tributary state of the Qing Dynasty to a Japanese colony. In 1910, Japan forcibly adopted the "Japan-Korea Merger Treaty" and completely annexed South Korea, and tens of millions of people on the Korean Peninsula lived like slaves to the country.
After Japan annexed the entire Korean Peninsula, it not only abolished the Chinese language and Korean language and promoted Japanese education, but also classified South Korea as an inferior nation in Japan, which inspired everyone on the Korean Peninsula to resist. During the Korean independence movement, two people played important leadership roles at one point, one was South Korea's first ** Syngman Rhee, and the other was Kim Koo.
The Korean independence movement actively pursued by Syngman Rhee and Kim Kow on the Korean Peninsula quickly attracted the attention of the Japanese side, and this forced Syngman Rhee and Kim Kowlo to go into exile in the United States, China, and other overseas countries to escape arrest by the Japanese authorities.
In 1914, after the outbreak of World War I, the Korean Peninsula became Japan's military raw material, and Japan's control over the Korean Peninsula was further strengthened. In 1918, at the end of World War I, Woodrow Wilson of the United States proposed the Fourteen Points, including "national self-determination," which inspired the national independence movement on the Korean Peninsula.
In 1919, the Paris Peace Conference was held. Both Syngman Rhee and Kim Koo regarded the Paris Peace Conference as an opportunity for national independence and liberation on the Korean Peninsula. However, this meeting, manipulated by the Western powers, turned the Korean Peninsula into a fat sheep to be slaughtered at the negotiating table, and the Paris Peace Conference did not fundamentally change the fate of the Korean Peninsula.
In this year, the last emperor of Korea, Yi Hee, who was abolished by Japan on the Korean Peninsula, suddenly died violently, and there were rumors that Li Xi was poisoned by Japan, which aroused the indignation of the whole Korean Peninsula, and the "March 1st" anti-Japanese patriotic movement called for by Syngman Rhee and Kim Koo broke out in Korea.
This movement against Japanese colonial rule on the Korean Peninsula was quickly suppressed by the Japanese authorities. Syngman Rhee and Kim Koo had to go into exile again. A series of setbacks in the Korean independence movement made Syngman Rhee and Kim Koo realize that the independence of the Korean Peninsula could not depend on the Korean royal family, which had become a puppet of Japan.
In 1919, Korean patriots in exile established a temporary exile in Shanghai, abolished the Korean monarchy, and changed to a republican system, which was the direct historical origin of the later "Korea".
Since the office of South Korea's temporary ** is located in the French Concession in Shanghai, Shanghai has become the temporary "capital" of South Korea's temporary ** de jure law. However, the temporary capital of South Korea has not been recognized by China's Beiyang**, nor has it been universally recognized internationally, and Japan's arrest of Korean restoration activists has made South Korea's temporary ** "restoration" movement very restricted.
What neither China, Japan nor South Korea expected was that 16 years after South Korea's temporary capital "Shanghai", it would have to change its capital 8 times in a row, setting a record for the largest number of "capitals" set up in China.
South Korean officials are ashamed to claim that South Korea has a total of nine capitals in China, and it is true in history, so in addition to Shanghai, what other places in China have been the temporary "capitals" of South Korea?
After the South Korea's temporary establishment of Shanghai as the "capital", instead of gaining the international recognition they expected, they were subjected to various restrictions. Because the office of the Korean temporary ** was set up in the French Concession in Shanghai, after the Japanese authorities negotiated with France, France issued a strict order to restrict the activities of the Korean temporary ** in the French Concession.
After eating a closed door here in France, South Korea temporarily **, had to ask China for help. 1919 coincided with the last years of the rule of China's Beiyang warlords, whether it was Zhang Zuolin, who was close to Japan, or Wu Peifu and Sun Chuanfang, who were close to Britain and the United States, all Beiyang troops were not interested in the risk of offending Japan, and came to give South Korea the green light temporarily, so South Korea was once again turned away.
In 1926, the Guangzhou National** launched the Northern Expedition. In 1927, the Beiyang warlords Sun Chuanfang and Wu Peifu were expelled by the Kuomintang, and Nanjing and Shanghai successively fell into the hands of the Nanjing Nationalists controlled by Chiang Kai-shek. South Korea's temporary ** thought that he had encountered a "savior" and hoped that Chiang Kai-shek would be able to recognize South Korea's temporary **, but what South Korea's temporary ** did not expect was that Chiang Kai-shek's attitude towards Japan was more ambiguous than that of Zhang Zuolin and others, which made South Korea's plan to restore the country come to naught again.
After the outbreak of the September 18 Incident in 1931, when Japan swallowed the three northeastern provinces of China, the Zionists on the Korean Peninsula called on the people of China and North Korea to unite and jointly resist Japanese aggression.
The Korean Provisional ** in Shanghai once again asked Chiang Kai-shek to recognize the Korean regime in exile, but what the South Korean authorities did not know was that it was Chiang Kai-shek who personally issued a warrant of "non-resistance" to Zhang Xueliang, and Chiang Kai-shek was afraid to avoid it in the face of Japan's domineering attitude.
In 1932, the 128 Incident broke out, and Japan dispatched marines to land in Shanghai. In the face of Japanese aggression, Shanghai was in danger of falling at any time. South Korea, which had been working in Shanghai for 13 years, had to evacuate the office and move the headquarters of the Korean exile to Hangzhou.
After the 128 Incident in Shanghai, Chiang Kai-shek's Nanjing national** again signed an agreement with Japan to humiliate the country, and strictly restricted anti-Japanese activities in China, and the activities of the Korean exile** authorities were also restricted.
Under the double oppression of Chiang Kai-shek ** and the Japanese colonialists, South Korea temporarily ** had to move its previous temporary office address in Hangzhou to Zhenjiang, making Zhenjiang the "third capital" of South Korea's temporary **.
In 1937, Japan launched the Lugou Bridge Incident and began a full-scale invasion of China. From this point on, Chiang Kai-shek's attitude towards the Korean restoration movement began to change subtly. Chiang Kai-shek hoped that the Korean restoration movement would create chaos in the Japanese rear and thus curb the pace of Japanese aggression against China.
With Chiang Kai-shek's approval, South Korea was finally able to carry out public activities in China for the time being. In 1937, the temporary office of South Korea was selected in Nanjing, the national capital of Chiang Kai-shek at that time, creating a historical spectacle of "one capital, two countries" for a time. However, this situation did not last long, after the fall of Nanjing in 1937, Chiang Kai-shek moved the capital of the national ** to Wuhan, and then evacuated to Chongqing, while the Korean temporary ** moved his office to Changsha.
The Korean Temporary **, who moved their office to Changsha, was pessimistic about the future situation of China's war of resistance, believing that the Japanese army would soon conquer Wuhan, and then Changsha would be lost. Therefore, these "smart" Koreans took the initiative and moved the temporary ** of South Korea to Guangzhou.
But what they didn't expect was that Guangzhou was attacked by the Japanese army in 1938 and declared lost, while Changsha held out until 1944 after the Fourth Battle of Changsha.
After the fall of Guangzhou, South Korea temporarily ran away again, and moved the office to Liuzhou and Qijiang, and after facing the threat of the Japanese army in these two places, South Korea temporarily moved its exile office to Chongqing, and settled with the Kuomintang company.
Chiang Kai-shek originally wanted to use the influence of South Korea's temporary ** to launch an armed uprising on the Korean Peninsula and contain Japan's forces, but the influence of South Korea's temporary ** was really limited. Whether it was Kim Koo or Syngman Rhee, they did not have the courage to raise their arms and call on the people of the Korean Peninsula to resist Japanese aggression, nor did they have the courage to go deep behind enemy lines on the Korean Peninsula and organize armed forces to confront Japan head-on.
Seeing that his support for South Korea's temporary ** did not play the slightest role, Chiang Kai-shek was gradually disappointed with the performance of South Korea's temporary **, and gradually reduced his financial assistance to South Korea's temporary **.
It was not until September 1945, when Japan announced its unconditional surrender, and after the end of World War II, that South Korea was temporarily given the opportunity to re-enter the world stage. South Korea's temporary call for the establishment of a new independent regime on the Korean Peninsula is a weak person who did not contribute in the slightest in World War II and is not qualified to go to the negotiating table at all.
In the negotiations on the post-war international order between the five permanent members of the United States, the Soviet Union, China, Britain, and France, the Korean Peninsula was divided into the Soviet occupation zone and the United States occupation zone with the 38th parallel as the boundary. At the critical moment when there was no hope for the restoration of North Korea, it was China that made an international statement that it hoped that the Korean Peninsula would have an independent nation-state, which laid the foundation for the establishment of North Korea and South Korea.
However, South Korea's subsequent series of "white-eyed wolf" moves may make every Chinese today feel that they may really have helped the wrong person at the beginning.
During the Second World War, China not only gave South Korea a place to live in exile, but also set up nine "temporary capitals" on Chinese territory, but South Korea's various behaviors towards China after its restoration were very chilling.
After the restoration of South Korea, Syngman Rhee became the first president of South Korea. The first thing the South Korean, who has set up nine temporary escort capitals in China, did after returning to China was to change the name of his national capital. In 1949, South Korea unilaterally began to announce the "de-sinicization" of South Korea, not only began to gradually abolish the use of Chinese characters in South Korea, but even changed the name of the South Korean capital from "Seoul" to Seoul.
In 1950, after the outbreak of the Korean War, South Korea even lured the wolf into the house and asked the United States to intervene in the situation on the Korean Peninsula in the name of "joint **", which brought a serious threat to China's national defense and security.
At the end of the Korean War in 1953, South Korea even threatened to compete with the Chinese People's Volunteers, and finally was well educated by the Chinese People's Volunteers in the Battle of Jincheng before learning to clamp their tails and be a man.
After the end of the Korean War, South Korea followed the West and maintained a hostile attitude towards New China, and it was not until 1972 that China and South Korea gradually resumed peaceful and friendly exchanges after the normalization of Sino-US relations.
However, in the 1988 Seoul Olympic Games, South Korea completely abolished Chinese characters, making Chinese characters completely bid farewell to the historical stage of South Korea, and South Korea's various actions once again left a rift in the friendship between the Chinese and South Korean peoples.
South Korea's various behaviors in recent years all reveal an inferiority complex toward national culture. Only by adhering to the path of self-reliance and self-improvement can one day stand tall among the nations of the world.
