Biographical Note Zeng Qi (1892-1951) was a distinguished political leader, government official, journalist, and poet. Founder and head of the Young China Party, Zeng Qi was one of the leading figures of modern China's "third-force" democratic movements. During times of national peril, Zeng Qi addressed the Chinese people, saying that nationalism was the only way to save the country from subjugation and that democracy was the key to China's survival and development. Zeng Qi's political career began shortly after his graduation from Sichuan Law School in Chengdu. He later studied in Japan at Chuo University (1916) and in France, where he became involved with various nationalistic movements. In 1923, Zeng Qi served as a special correspondent from Paris to Xin Wen Bao, a daily newspaper based in Shanghai. He also worked with Zhou Enlai to organize the Association of Chinese Clubs in France, which campaigned against foreign control of Chinese railways. It was in France where Zeng Qi, along with Li Huang, Chen Qitiang, and Zuo Shunsheng, founded the anti-communist, anti-fascist Young China Party. As a journalist, Zeng Qi wrote many articles for the Chengdu Shang Bao ( Chengdu Commercial Gazette) and the Sichuan Gong Bao ( Sichuan Impartial Journal). He also founded and edited several daily newspapers and periodicals, including the Min Guo Xin Bao ( New Republic) and Xing Shi Zhou Kan ( Awakened Lion). Although once opposed to Chiang Kai-shek, in 1937 Zeng Qi joined forces with the Generalissimo in the campaign against Japan. After Japan's surrender, Zeng Qi was the leading delegate of the Young China Party to the Political Consultative Conference at Chongqing. In the winter of 1946, he became a representative to the National Assembly of Constitution Making and was selected as a member of the presidium. On behalf of the Young China Party, he signed, together with the Kuomintang and the China Democratic Socialist League (led by Zhang Junmai aka Carson Chang,) the Common Political Program and consequently became a state councilor in the Nationalist government after it was reorganized in April 1947. After Chiang was inaugurated as president of the Chinese Republic, Zeng Qi was appointed his supreme adviser. During the Truman administration, in 1948, Zeng Qi came to the United States to study its constitutional government and worked fervently to garner U.S. support against the Chinese Communists. Zeng Qi died in 1951 in Washington, D.C. Scope and Content of Collection The Zeng Qi papers contain materials covering the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945) and the Chinese Civil War (1946-1950), as well as records of the Young China Party ( Young China Party File); manuscripts ( Speeches and Writing); newspaper clippings ( Clippings File); published matter; and correspondence between Zeng Qi, leading figures in the Young China Party, and other notable military and political officials of the Nationalist government, including Chiang Kai-shek, Li Zongren, Chen Cheng, Chen Bulei, Yan Xishan, Bai Chongxi, and Fu Zuoyi ( Correspondence).

  • How China Started the Second Sino-Japanese War: Why Should Japan Apologize to China?
    How China Started the Second Sino-Japanese War: Why Should Japan Apologize to China? By Moteki Hiromichi Society for the Dissemination of Historical Facts © 1 Introduction In the so-called "apology issue," which concerns Japan's conduct in China during the Second Sino-Japanese War, there exists two opposing points of view: "I guess the only thing we can do is to keep on apologizing until China tells us, 'The problems between us may not be settled, but for now you have sufficiently apologized.'" -Murakami Haruki1 "A grateful China should also pay respect to Yasukuni Shrine." -Ko Bunyu2 Mr. Murakami's opinion is based on the belief that Japan waged an aggressive war against China, a belief shared by many Japanese even if they don't know the reason why. This belief holds that the Japanese should be completely repentant over that act of aggression for the sake of clearing our own conscience. There are two major problems with this point of view. First of all, it rests on the conventional wisdom that Japan was guilty of aggression towards China. Many people will perhaps respond to that by saying something like, "What are you talking about? The Japanese Army invaded continental China and waged war there. Surely that constitutes a war of aggression." However, let's imagine the following scenario. What if the Japan Self-Defense Forces launched an unprovoked attack on American military units, which are stationed in Japan in accordance with the provisions of the US-Japan Security Treaty, and a war broke out on Japanese territory? Because the fighting would be taking place in Japan, does that mean that, in this scenario, the US Army is undeniably the aggressor? No matter how distasteful a person might find the US military presence to be, under international law, Japan would be deemed the aggressor here.

    VII THE PERIOD OF THE MONGOLIAN POLITICAL COUNCIL APRIL 1934 - JANUARY 1936 Founding of the Council The approved Eight Articles on Mongolian Local Autonomy became the legal foundation for Mongolian self-rule that Mongolian leaders had desired for years. In ac­ cordance with these principles, both the Temporary Outline of the Organization of the Mongolian Local Autonomous Political Affairs Council and its main personnel were all announced. The hearts of both traditional and more modem-minded Mongol leaders were gladdened, and they also perceived this as an unprecedented event in the history of the Republic of China. Still, the Eight Articles also occasioned a counterattack from the frontier provinces. Fu Zuoyi and his clique tried hard to destroy this great accomplish­ ment. Because of this. Prince De and other leaders ofthe autonomy movement had no choice but to concentrate their attention and energy on dealing with the pressure from without. But they were unable to make progress solving internal problems and satisfying the desires of the Mongol people because of Japanese westward expansion and changes in China ’s domestic political scene. After the Mongolian delegates returned to Beile-yin sume and submitted their report, both Prince Yon and Prince De took up their positions on April 3, 1934 and then telegraphed the Chinese government that they would go ahead with ceremonies to mark the establishment of the Mongolian Political Council and the inauguration of its mem­ bers. Princes Yon and De invited General He Yingqin, the Superintendent of Mongolian Local Autonomy, to come and “supervise” the ceremony. On April 23, 1934 the Mongolian Political Council was founded and its mem­ bers were sworn in.

  • The Marco Polo Bridge Incident and the Battles of Shanghai and Nanking
    Part 2 - The Marco Polo Bridge Incident and the Battles of Shanghai and Nanking The Battle of Shanghai: The true starting point of the war The Marco Polo Bridge Incident is usually considered to be the start of the Second Sino-Japanese War. There is no mistake that this incident served to trigger the Sino-Japanese conflict, but the incident itself was only a small skirmish—it cannot be called the start of a full-blown war. Consequently, it would be inaccurate to claim that the fighting at the Marco Polo Bridge "spread" to Shanghai. After the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, the Japanese Army sent three divisions from Japan and units of the Kwantung Army to northern China in the hopes of restraining the nonstop ceasefire violations of Chinese soldiers in the area. Japanese forces occupied Tianjin, but they did not advance beyond, or make any attempt to advance beyond, the city of Baoding, just southwest of Beijing. Furthermore, on August 5, the Japanese government made a landmark peace proposal with the Chinese and planned to hold its first meeting with Chinese leaders in September. Therefore, the Chinese Army's attack on Shanghai, carried out on August 13, can hardly be called a natural extension of the Marco Polo Bridge Incident. Rather, the Chinese attack on Shanghai should be seen as a dramatic new crisis sparked by Chiang Kai-shek's determination to wage full-scale war against Japan. Rather than a clash of local units, an all-out, state-dictated military offensive constitutes “war” under international law. The existence of an official declaration of war is not the defining factor.

Mijn interesse in deze oorlog komt voort uit mijn woonplaats; ik woon in de westhoek (Poperinge), een regio waar de Eerste en Tweede Wereldoorlog een belangrijke rol gespeeld hebben. Zowel in lager als secundair onderwijs wordt in onze streek veel belang gehecht aan de kennis van onze geschiedenis. Vooral de Tweede Wereldoorlog boeit mij sinds kleins af, omdat mijn grootouders deze meemaakten, en er ook vaak over vertelden. Daarom ging ik op zoek naar een link tussen de Tweede Wereldoorlog en China. Ik begon mij te verdiepen in de Tweede Sino-Japanse Oorlog, en na het lezen van enkele artikels over het Lugouqiao Incident was mijn interesse gewekt.

Abstract The focus of this study is the relationship between the Chinese central government and Song Zheyuan, the key provincial leader of North China, in the period immediately preceding the Second Sino-Japanese War, and the impact of tensions in that relationship on Japan policy. The most urgent task confronting the Chinese government in the late 1930s was to secure an equitable and formally-negotiated settlement of outstanding questions with the Tokyo government.

    P a g e | 1 In Commemoration of China’s 15-Year Resistance War Excerpts from http://republicanchina.org/war.shtml For more writings on Republican China, please check for updates at http://republicanchina.org/Republican_China-pdf.htm The Communist-Instigated Marco Polo Bridge Incident Ah Xiang Japan, with its army stationed in Tientsin and along the Peiping-Shanhaiguan Railway line on basis of the 1901 boxer protocol (The Final Protocol Relating to the North China Incident), had tripled its troops allowed under the protocol to the size of 5,774 to be under a RyoBrig commander. The pretext was that the strengthening of Japan’s Tientsin-stationed Army could help to stop Japan’s Kwantung Army from unnecessary border-crossings to intervene in Sino- Japanese incidents inside of the Great Wall.1 After occupying Jehol in 1933 and forcing the Chinese Central Army out of Hebei Province, Japan’s intention was to encircle Peiping [Peking] from the south and southwest and make the domain of Peking-Tientsin, to the east of Yongdinghe River, a self-enclosed, neutralized and demilitarized area. On the Japanese side, two Rentai from the China Stationed Infantry RyoBrig, which were named the Peiping-stationed Army and the Tientsin-stationed Army, scattered around Peiping, Fengtai, Tongxian, Tientsin, Tangshan, Luanxian, Shanhaiguan, Tanggu, Changli and Qinhuangdao. While the 1st Rentai stationed in the Peiping area with the 3rd Daitai at Fengtai, the Japanese 2nd Infantry Rentai and the Artillery Rentai stationed in the Tientsin area. As a precaution, the 110th Brigade of the 37th Division under Song Zheyuan’s 29th Corps made extra preparations by allocating the reinforced 3rd Battalion of the 219th Regiment, i.e., four infantry companies, two mortar companies and one heavy machinegun company or about 1400 soldiers, to the area inside and outside of Wanping and at the east and west ends of Lugouqiao stony and iron bridges.

    Battle of Peking & Tientsin by Ah Xiang Excerpts from “Resistance Wars” at http://www.republicanchina.org/war.html For updates and related articles, check http://www.republicanchina.org/RepublicanChina-pdf.htm At Wanping, Cheng Xixian’s constabulary brigade was in charge of the two gates, while 29th Corps soldiers, with bayoneted rifles, were still defending the bridges. The next day, 21st, Japanese planes flew to Lugouqiao area to check on Chinese military transfer. Under Song Zheyuan’s order to have 132nd Division replace 37th Division, Zhao Dengyu’s troops, which originally stationed at southern Hebei cities of Cangzhou, Hejian and Renqiu, had been concentrating towards the southern bank of the Yongdinghe River. On 22nd, portion of 132nd Division arrived at Nanyuan, to the south of Peiping. On 23rd, Song Zheyuan was still persuading the soldiers of 37th Division under Feng Zhi’an as to the pullout from Peiping area. Against the Japanese demand that constabulary force take over Peiping, Song Zheyuan relocated Shi Zhengang’s 27th Brigade of 132nd Division towards Peiping. On the night of 23rd, Xiong Bin came to see Song Zheyuan at Peiping for strengthening the fighting will of 29th Corps. The next day, Chiang Kai-shek asked Xiong Bin relay a wire, stating that Japan’s shipment of mechanized troops on July 22nd meant a large-scale operation within one week.1 By this time, Song Zheyuan halted the withdrawal of 37th Division but still requested troops of Central Army and 26th Route Army back away a bit on the pretext of lessening Japanese vigilance, In separate talks with foreign ministry representatives, Song Zheyuan stated that there was 70% chance of reaching peace with Japan.
