庙街事件中的中日交涉

Negotiations between China and Japan in the Nikolaevsk Incident

第一次世界大战后期,协约国出兵西伯利亚,日美两国派兵最多。战后各国却未立即撤军,俄国则陷入内战,情势混乱。1920年3月至5月,居住在阿姆河出海口庙街的数百名日军及其侨民,与俄国红军发生冲突,演成"庙街事件"。中国四艘军舰因故滞留庙街,适逢日俄冲突。1920年5月,日本援军收复庙街后,指责中国军人曾助俄攻日,遂扣留中国军舰人员,坚持双方派员调查。中国外交、海军两部被迫派员与日人交涉。几经交涉,最终中国在同意道歉、赔款、惩处有关人员等日方要求后,终于撤回军舰、官兵和侨民。

In the First World War, the Allied decided in mid-1918 to send expeditionary forces to Siberia to prevent possible Russo-German alliance and rescue Czech legion. The expeditionary troops were mainly dispatched by Japan and the United States, and they were stationed in eastern Siberia even after the Great War was over. From March to May of 1920, during the Russian Civil War, several hundred Japanese soldiers, sailors and civilians were annihilated at Nikolaevsk near the mouth of the Amur River. At Nikolaevsk, there were four Chinese gunboats that had tried in 1919 but failed to reach Harbin. When Japanese troops retook Nikolaevsk in May 1920, they made unwarranted charges that the Chinese sailors had helped the Bolsheviks in the Nikolaevsk Incident. The Japanese commander detained the Chinese gunboats and sailors and insisted on an investigation of the Chinese involvement in the Incident. China was forced to investigate, apologize, pay a war indemnity and punish the Chinese ' convicts'. Then, the Sino-Japanese dispute during the Nikolaevsk Incident was settled peacefully.
