1919年南北和会前后的李纯与陆荣廷

The Relationship between Li Chun and Lu Rongting around the Peace Negotiation of 1919

1917年8月,李纯继任江苏督军,成为主和派于地方的实际领袖,与西南各方保有联络。这其中,尤以与陆荣廷的联系最为突出,贯穿于南北议和的进程中。李、陆二人的往来,有两个较为密切的阶段:一是李纯首倡和议,派人南下面会陆荣廷之时;二为南北和会完全破裂,王揖唐接任总代表之后。二人政治诉求具体有别,但总体基本一致,这是他们往来密切的缘由与保证。

In August of 1917,Li Chun took charge of the military governor of Jiangsu province,and became the real leader of the doves. He kept a good relationship with the south-west warlords, especially with Lu Rongting. Their contacts were throughout the Peace Negotiation between the North and the South,and there were two main periods. The first stage was when Li Chun put foward the peaceful way and sent his men to meet Lu Rongting. The second was when the Peace Negotiation broke down and Wang Yitang took the position of the general representative. Their political appeals were different partially but stayed the same on the whole. These were the reasons and guarantees of their close contact.
