I have also heard about the territorial ownership of Lake Baikal, and I have some understanding. If we want to really understand this issue, we must not avoid an agreement, marking the first time That China has appeared in the international community, the Treaty of Nebuchu. So let's take a closer look at the story of the treaty.
First of all, I would like to state that lake Baikal was once China's territory, and we need not doubt it. Please realize this before I start my story!
The story should still be told slowly, and listen to me. Mentioning the signing of the Treaty of Nebchu between China and Russia, we have to talk about the Battle of Yaksa. During the Kangxi Dynasty of the Qing Dynasty, the Russian side invaded the city of Yaksa, and committed crimes here, oppressed the Han people, and sold many Han women to Russia.
The Qing government sent troops to suppress it twice, both of which ended in the defeat of the Russians. But the Russians were not dead hearted, and still marched to the Nebuchu, Yaksa region.
At this time, the domestic situation on both sides is very tense. Moreover, it is said that at that time, there was a rebellion in the west of the Qing Dynasty, and the south wanted to recover Taiwan, even if Kangxi was "an emperor through the ages", he did not dare to stretch the battle line so long. The same is true of the situation in Russia, and there are also wars in northwestern Russia. At that time, the Russians were already besieged in the city of Yaksa, and after communication, the two sides decided to start negotiations.
At this time, the Qing Dynasty was clearly dominant in terms of armed war. However, China is a big country and is still willing to focus on peace, but we have never given up the use of force.
Before the negotiations, Kangxi also clearly conveyed the bottom line of the Kangxi negotiations to the leader of the negotiating mission, Soetu, who granted Soetu full authority to negotiate, and instructed that the territory around Lake Baikal administered by Mongol tribes could be used for negotiation. This must also be because the Qing Dynasty did not have strong control over this land, and people at that time did not realize the fertility and richness of this territory.
In this way, Soetu took the negotiating mission and nearly 10,000 people came to the Nebuchu region.
In this team, there are two people with special identities, Zhang Cheng from France and Xu Risheng from Portugal. They were accompanied by The Kangxi Emperor. These two people are from Europe, have a lot of knowledge of international affairs, and are bound to be able to help a lot in the negotiations. Kangxi was the emperor of all the emperors of the Qing Dynasty who was most interested in world culture and was most willing to accept the excellent culture of the West, so these two Europeans often taught Kangxi and were trusted by Kangxi.
Negotiations between China and Russia began in the Nebuchu area, where tents were set up at an equal distance from the tents of the two sides.
At the beginning of the negotiations, the Russians complained to the Qing government that the Qing Dynasty would first send troops to attack them, which was undoubtedly a rake. Immediately after that, Soetu enumerated the crimes committed by the Russians in the northeast of our country, and emphasized that areas such as Lake Baikal belonged to the territory of the Qing Dynasty, which sounded no problem at all.
On the second day of the negotiations, the format changed. The next day the negotiations began, but Saltu maintained the position of the previous day. In the face of such a tough attitude, Russia has only retreated.
But it has to be said that the Qing Dynasty personnel lacked experience in negotiations at that time, especially in international negotiations. Soetu actually revealed the bottom card that Kangxi had confessed, telling the Russian personnel that they could use Nebuchu as the boundary. The premature disclosure of the bottom card made the Russian personnel have a bottom in their hearts and constantly forced Soetu to give in. Soetu has also been not tough at all in diplomacy.
At this time, several tribes ruled by the Russians could not bear it, and wanted to unite with the Qing army to revolt against the Russians. The Russian delegates panicked and had to agree to the final plan proposed by Soetu, bounded by the Gelbizi River on the Shilkha River.
After this, Lake Baikal fell into Russian hands. Why is this happening? On the one hand, as the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, Suo Ertu lacked the sense of negotiation and made unprincipled concessions, which eventually led to the loss of land in the Qing Dynasty, sad! On the other hand, China, a big country, should have welcomed visitors from all over the world, learned from the advanced science of the West, and dissolved the great trend of the international community. But during the Ming and Qing dynasties, the door of the country was not opened, and what I said was realized, which was the sadness of the nation!
At this point, our question has also been answered, Lake Baikal is not ceded, but the Manchu Qing government lacks a sense of sovereignty and international awareness, and the failure of the negotiations has caused our country to lose territory.
Lenin had ordered the return of territory acquired from China, but with Stalin's ascension to power, the matter was resolved. But fortunately, today's China is no longer the China of the past, and in the face of territorial sovereignty issues, we will certainly resolutely protect every inch of territory.
