What are the stories about the Opium War in China's modern history?

/kloc-at the beginning of the 0/9th century, the world has changed, and the Qing Empire still closed its doors and slept, not wanting to deal with the outside world.

While I was asleep, the thief came.

The thief was so bad that in order to achieve his goal, he first punctured the paper window and a small bamboo tube was quietly blown into LSD. Wait until everyone in the room is groggy, then swagger in and start work.

What kind of ecstasy is this?

This is Tian Zi's number one drug opium! Whoever touches this thing will immediately feel groggy and be at the mercy of others, and this life will be over.

Oh, this thief is really bad. He must be a mouse, with a rat's head and eyes, wearing a black mask and afraid to see the light.

Oh, no, this is a serious English gentleman in a hat and white gloves. He is nothing like the thief he imagined.

This is not a thief, but a big thief. The thief's appearance has always been this hypocritical appearance.

What does an English gentleman do when he is uncomfortable in his own home?

Oh, forget about this gentleman. He tore off his noble painted skin long ago and began to be a colonial robber worse than all thieves. When I occupied India, I began to sell opium, regardless of the lives of others.

It wasn't enough for colonial robbers to occupy India. Thieves took aim at China, another ancient oriental civilization, and wanted to turn China into a second India. In order to achieve the goal, like a thief who sneaked into the middle of the night, he blew a LSD first and then laid hands on him. This new psychedelic drug can not only earn astronomical profits, but also paralyze the will of China people and turn them into "the sick man of East Asia".

At that time, the only half door for China to open to the outside world was Guangzhou. British robbers started here and shipped boxes of opium. There are more and more opium on the market, and more than a dozen provinces in the mainland have opened cigarette houses, and the number of opium addicts has reached more than two million, which is really shocking.

The indecisive emperor Jiaqing made up his mind in the face of opium flooding. After his son Daoguang came to power, a minister named Huang Juezi wrote to him, advocating strict prohibition of opium and severe punishment of drug addicts. This report attracted the attention of Daoguang, and asked the provincial governors and governors to express their opinions and seriously discuss this issue.

Soon, a submission came, some people agreed and some people opposed it. Among them, Lin Zexu, governor of Huguang, said it best. He said: "If opium is not banned again, there will be no soldiers who can fight in China in a few decades, and there will be no national food."

Daoguang felt that the problem was serious and sent him to Guangzhou as an imperial envoy to take charge of smoking ban.

Lin Zexu is new here and must find out the situation. He knew that knowledgeable young students hated opium the most, so he went into a college, gave each student a piece of paper and asked them to write down everything they knew. Through the clues learned here and elsewhere, we soon grasped the ins and outs. It turned out to be a group of foreign profiteers, led by British cigarette dealers.

After grasping the situation, he immediately issued a notice, ordering these illegal foreign businessmen to hand over all the hidden opium within three days, and wrote a letter of guarantee to ensure that they would never do it again. Otherwise, once it is found out, no matter what nationality, it will be sentenced to death, confiscation of goods, and no mercy.

After receiving the notice, foreign profiteers were confused and gathered in the business hall to talk about it. They think that China people never do things seriously. As long as they avoid these three days, they will roll with the punches and roll with the punches, and nothing will happen again.

Three days have passed, and after the deadline for handing in cigarettes, Lin Zexu has not loosened at all. Looks like he's getting serious. Other profiteers were afraid and had to hand over 1000 boxes of opium in a perfunctory manner. I didn't know that Lin Zexu had already found out. There were 22 barges full of opium on the water, with a total of more than 20,000 boxes, most of which were the goods of the great British opium dealers. He immediately issued a general order to summon him.

Under strong pressure, foreign profiteers are worried and don't know what will happen in the future. More nervous, afraid of being caught in China yamen.

At the time of such a noise, a "savior" suddenly fell from the sky. This is the British commercial supervision law in China. When he heard the news in Macau, he rushed to Guangzhou. He had the courage to cheer up foreign profiteers and said, "If you don't pay, let's see what he can do. There is a fleet of the British Empire here, and no one dares to touch you! "

Turn your back and sneak away with the ground, hoping to slip away. Let Lin Zexu catch no one, but he can make a rake.

Surprisingly, Lin Zexu had long anticipated this move. Sending troops surrounded the business hall without eating or drinking, cutting off all contact with the outside world. The ground is blocked, and I can't escape if I want to.

The righteous law says that every day should not be, and the ground is ineffective. Their fleet is far from the sea, so they can't get here, staring at big blue eyes, and they can't play tricks anymore. Foreign profiteers have lost their backers, so they have to hand over opium honestly and dare not say a word no.

This time, more than 20,000 boxes of opium were collected. On the third day of June, Lin Zexu ordered these harmful things to be piled up in a big pit on the Humen sea stall, soaked in boiling lime first, and then soaked in seawater, so that opium would deteriorate completely. When the tide comes, it is washed clean. The crowd gathered at the scene clapped their hands and cheered, and they had never been so happy.
