The whole process of the merger of Japan and South Korea

1862, korean king Zhezong died, Zhezong had no children, and Li Xi succeeded to the throne. Li Xi is very young, and his biological father Dayuanjun is the Regent. It is the inheritance of this deformity that sowed the seeds of disaster for North Korea. /kloc-In the early 1970s of 0/9, under the control of Min Fei (Empress Ming Cheng, Princess of Li Xi, Emperor Gaozong of North Korea), Li Xi forced Yuan Jun to abdicate and take charge of his own affairs. North Korea has formed two major political groups, Min Fei and Da Yuan Jun. Their struggle has made the domestic political situation in North Korea increasingly unstable.

1876 In February, Japan coerced North Korea into concluding the Jianghua Island Treaty, which became the first unequal treaty in modern Korean history. Soon, the powers followed suit. North Korea was forced to sign unequal trade treaties with the United States, Britain, Germany, Italy, Russia, France, Austria, Hungary, Belgium, Denmark and other countries. At this time, the Korean dynasty still belonged to the vassal state of China and was sheltered by China. China, which suffered greatly from it, followed the example of foreign powers and set up a concession in North Korea, with many privileges.

1882 There was a drought in North Korea, and people's hearts fluctuated. Soldiers in Seoul set off an uprising against Min Baili, known in history as "Renwu mutiny". Dayuanjun took the opportunity to drive away Min Fei and seize power. During this period, 13 Japanese were killed and Japanese legation was burned, which led to Japanese armed intervention. Knowing that the situation in North Korea was turbulent, the Qing government immediately sent Beiyang Navy prefect Ding and alternate Dao Ma Jianzhong to lead three warships to North Korea to prevent Japanese aggression. There is also a statement to Japan that North Korea is a vassal state of China and Japan should not take drastic action. On August 20th, Wu Changqing, an old general of Huai Army, came to Mashan. Two days later, Wu Hema invited Dayuanjun to the Qing army camp for talks. After greeting, Dayuanjun was told to go to Tianjin as soon as possible to listen to instructions, and on August 23, he took the Jiyuan ship to Tianjin. Then Dayuanjun was imprisoned in Baoding.

Ding and Ma Jianzhong acted decisively before Japan took action, which enabled the Qing government to take the initiative on the North Korean issue and instructed the North Korean government to negotiate with Japan to resolve the crisis. At the same time, they removed the cronies of Dayuan Army and suppressed the uprising leaders. The civil aviation group's return to power has caused great dissatisfaction in Japan. Japan is unwilling to fail in North Korea. 1884, when the Sino-French war broke out, the Japanese used China to instigate a coup in North Korea in an attempt to control North Korea.

1884 65438+At 6: 00 pm on February 4th, Hong Yingzhi, the head of Hua Kai, was ordered to invite government officials and diplomatic envoys from various countries to the DPRK to celebrate the completion of the post office. During the dinner, there was a sudden fire outside the hall, and guests left to observe. Civilized guerrillas set an ambush in various places and cut down the pro-China minister Yong-ik Min. The rebels clamored for an uprising against the Qing army. I rushed into the palace quickly today, forcing the king to write a letter "Japanese envoy defended me". Park Yong-hsiao took this letter, led Zhu Tian into the palace, put the king and Min Fei under house arrest in Jingyou Palace, and formed a new government. At that time, Yuan Shikai, the imperial envoy of the Qing government in North Korea, made a decisive decision, assembled the Qing Zi camp, and contacted the new Korean army responsible for editing and training to enter the palace to save the king. Kyoko Battalion and the Korean New Army soon broke into Jingyou Palace. Under the instigation of Yuan Shikai, hundreds of North Korean troops who had been trained by him defected and United against the Japanese army and the rebels. Zhu Tian defeated and fled the Japanese Embassy. The next morning, the king was escorted to Yuan Shikai's military camp and a new government headed by Shen Shunze was formed. The Japanese ambassador led the staff of the embassy, the garrison, Kim, Park and other backbone volunteers to Incheon, which was known as the "coup in Shen Jia" in history.

In the two rounds of contest, the Qing government gained the upper hand. After two coups in Renwu and Shen Jia, it is proved that China's power in Korea is obviously superior to that of Japan. After the coup in Shen Jia, the confrontation between China and Japan on the peninsula became more intense, and the Sino-Japanese dispute further turned North Korea into the center of the political storm in Northeast Asia. The rulers of North Korea, who are busy with infighting, don't know the general trend of the world, lack the general plan of governing the country, and are unable to lead the country in danger to the road of prosperity. It is still a "great cause" that lasted for thousands of years, blindly relying on big countries and seeking protection, which eventually led to the disaster of national subjugation.

1On July 23, 894, the Japanese army suddenly occupied the Korean Palace, overthrew the people's non-clique, and fostered the regime of the Grand Yuan Army. On the 25th, at the behest of Japan, Dayuanjun announced the abolition of all treaties with the Qing government. On the same day, Japan declared war and the Sino-Japanese War broke out. After the war, Japan and North Korea concluded a "Japan-North Korea Covenant", that is, an offensive and defensive alliance with China.

1895 April, the Sino-Japanese War ended, the Qing Dynasty was defeated, and the two sides signed the treaty of shimonoseki. China recognized North Korea's independence and withdrew from North Korea. The Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 marked the final disintegration of the traditional tribute system in Northeast Asia and the decisive change of the power structure in this region. China lost its position as a traditional big country in East Asia, and Korea became Japanese territory. After that, Japan rose rapidly and began to appear as a powerful country. 1894- 1895 The Sino-Japanese War made Korea separate from China. Seeing that Japan was forced to return Liaodong Peninsula to China under the interference of Russia, they tried to use Russia to contain Japan. North Korea's proximity to Russia has made it more and more influential in North Korea. In this case, on June 8th, 1895, 10, the Japanese army killed Min Fei and wiped out the pro-Russian forces in the palace, which is known as the "Yi Wei Incident".

1on June 9, 896, Japan and Russia concluded a new agreement in Moscow, including: * * to help North Korea's financial reform; Entrust the gendarmerie organization to North Korea; Japan continues to manage the occupied telecommunications lines; Russia reserves the right to establish a telecommunications line from Seoul to the border; It is acknowledged that the King will stay in the Russian Embassy until korean king's escort is formed. On September 1896 and 12, the king of Han returned to the palace and changed his country name to "Guangwu". In September of the same year 10, 12, he proclaimed himself emperor and changed his country name to "Korean Empire".

Behind diplomacy, Japan and Russia are making military preparations, and both sides are sparing no effort to build railways and occupy military strongholds to ensure their military superiority. The "Korean Empire" can only watch helplessly as two powerful neighbors prepare for war on their own land. It is conceivable that no matter what the outcome between Japan and Russia is, the unlucky one can only be South Korea. 1904 In February, South Korea watched the Russo-Japanese War break out. In order not to get involved in the dispute, as early as1September, 903, the Emperor of South Korea demanded that South Korea's neutrality be guaranteed when the two countries were at war. However, Japan completely ignored this point and sent troops to land from Incheon two days before it declared war on Russia. More than 10,000 Japanese troops gathered in Seoul. Two weeks after the war, when South Korea was actually occupied, it concluded the "Japan-South Korea Protocol", forcing South Korea to promise that Japan "can seize places deemed necessary in military strategy". It is equivalent to occupying South Korea.

As the war progressed, Japan began to plan to turn South Korea into a protectorate. 1904 In May, Japan made a decision to expand its military, diplomatic and financial rights and gain the real power of protection, and concluded the first Japan-South Korea agreement with South Korea, which controlled South Korea's finance and diplomacy. Then in April of 1905, Japan mastered the communication industry of South Korea and monopolized the navigation rights of South Korea's sea and border during the Japan-Russia Peace Conference.

The Russo-Japanese War ended in Russia's defeat, and Russia withdrew from the competition with Japan in Northeast Asia. It was only a matter of time before Japan annexed South Korea. However, at this time, regardless of his own demise, the Emperor of North Korea wanted to take refuge in Japan, a new power, to invade China, concocted the so-called "island problem" (a problem caused by illegal immigrants from North Korea, which was eventually rejected by China), and signed the second Japan-South Korea agreement with Japan on June1905+1October 65438.

190565438+February 2 1 day, Japan set up unified supervision and other functional institutions in Seoul, turning South Korea into its protectorate. The official system of the unified supervision office was announced, which stipulated that the unified supervision office was directly subordinate to the emperor, and a unified supervision office was set up in the capital and parliamentary halls were set up in various places. Terauchi Masatake, who became the first generation governor of North Korea from a unified supervisor, wrote in his diary: "In June, 1907, Kobayakawa Takakage, Katou Kiyomasa, Konishi Yukinaga 1907, the Second World Peace Conference was held in The Hague, the Netherlands. The Koreans who advocated anti-Japanese in Halbad also came to support, and the ambassadors distributed letters of protest to the members of various countries. However, South Korea's diplomacy was replaced by the Japanese government according to the treaty, so it was not taken care of by other countries. Instead of being realized, the attempt of the North Korean court strengthened Japan's attitude towards North Korea. Supervisor Ito Bowen blamed the incident on the Emperor of South Korea and believed that the South Korean side had violated the agreement. Prime Minister Li Wanyong advised Han Emperor to abdicate. On July 19, 2009, Emperor Gaozong issued an imperial decree, ceding the throne to Crown Prince Li Mao (Chunzong). After the Hague emissary incident, the Japanese government realized that it was necessary to master not only the diplomatic rights of South Korea, but also the internal political power of South Korea. 1907 In July, South Korea was forced to sign the third Japan-South Korea agreement. According to the agreement, the general supervisor guides South Korea to improve. South Korea accepted Japanese colonial rule for 35 years. At the Cairo Conference in June19431/kloc-0, the Cairo Declaration signed by Roosevelt, Chiang Kai-shek and Churchill said this about the Korean issue: "Our three countries, mindful of the enslavement of the Korean people, decided to make Korea free and independent for a long time. "1The Yalta meeting in February 1945 once again talked about the Korean issue. On February 8, Roosevelt met with Stalin. After they talked about the conditions for the Soviet Union to participate in the war against Japan, Roosevelt proposed to discuss the issue of territorial trusteeship, and proposed to Stalin that "North Korea should be managed by a representative of the Soviet Union, an American representative and a China representative" and that "the shorter the trusteeship period, the better".

1August 945, after 40 years, the Russians came again. After learning that Japan decided to surrender and Soviet troops "poured into" the Korean peninsula, Americans couldn't sit still. On the night of August 10, the the State Council Coordination Committee, the War Department and the Navy Department held an emergency meeting in the Pentagon to discuss the North Korean issue. At the meeting, Secretary of State Dunn proposed that the US military should rush to the area as far north as possible to surrender, but due to practical difficulties, it finally decided to draw a line of "pushing as far north as possible" but not being rejected by the Soviet Union. In this way, the Korean peninsula was "accidentally" divided into two parts by the new world powers along the 38th parallel of north latitude, and then today's North Korea and South Korea were formed.

1950 After the Korean War broke out, the Korean Peninsula became a wrestling field for two great powers, and the cloud of the Cold War enveloped the peninsula from then on.
