作为中日第一次战略大对决,中国外交部门在整个甲午战争期间的表现,大到外交战略、小到外交技巧,均无法与日本同行相比。事实上,史料显示,从李鸿章到军机处,中国决策层在被高升号事件震撼的同时,也在某种程度上“欣慰地”相信并坐等英国对日施压,甚至兴兵问罪,为此,已经起草好的对日宣战诏书又被延宕发布。 As the first major strategic alliance between China and Japan, the performance of China’s diplomatic service during the entire Sino-Japanese War was large compared to that of its Japanese counterparts, ranging from diplomatic strategies to foreign diplomacy. In fact, historical data show that from the time of Li Hung-chang to the military machine division, while being shaken by the incitement to the escalation number, the Chinese decision-makers are also somewhat “comforted” in believing and waiting for the British to put pressure on Japan and even raise their swords for In this regard, the edict on declaring war on Japan has been drafted and released.
