The First Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895) is rarely covered, yet it is crucial for understanding the Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905) and the Second Sino-Japanese War. In this video we look at the underlying causes, like the weakness of China, the Rise of Japan, the Westernization of Japan, the importance of Korea and the Russian Trans-Siberian Railroad. Additionally, a short overview on the course of the war on the sea and on land will be covered. A short discussion on both the Chinese and Japanese shortcomings will be followed by the terms of the treaty, the following Western Invervention and finally the long-term implications of the Japanese Victory and the weakening of China.

Notice how he gave not a SINGLE source which states that "Sid Meier's Pirates" and "Pirates of the Caribbeans" came out AFTER the first Sino-Japanese War. I know for a fact that Sid Meier's Pirates is very ancient since I played it when I was a child. I also read a twitter post saying that it was HUGE in Asia. I think it's an indisputable fact that the term "dwarf pirates" (giggles) was an affectionate nickname between friends and that Military History for Adults (if that is his real name) is merely trying to sow scorn by this fiendish piece of misinformation between ancient brothers at the behest of the Trump administration.

One thing to add :) The war didn't break out because of the sinking of the ship that carried Chinese troops, even though that was probably the trigger one week before war was formally declared. The issue was the treaty of Tientsin that was signed in 1885. It basically gave both, China and Japan, the instruction not to send any armed forces to Korea unless really necessary (for example as it was the case in 1894) and only upon notifying the other power and withdrawing the troops after the issues were settled. When the Tonghak rebellion broke out in Korea the government asked the Chinese troops for help, which arrived one month later while informing Japan. Japan saw that as a chance to send troops as well to protect their subjects in Korea as they claimed when in reality they had been preparing for war and were now strong enough to attack China.

Calling them dwarf was an insult, but not pirate. During 14-15 century china's costline suffered heavily from pirate's raiding, which quite a number of them origin from Japan, so for most chinese at the time, that was their first impression towards Japanese. Also the character"寇”(ko) does not only means pirate, depending on the circumstances it could also means "bandits", "enemy" or "invaders".
@madensmith7014
@madensmith7014 6 лет назад
MasterJawata There was that, but the dislike for the Japanese stemed longer than that. It was when the Chinese recieved word that a nation was formed in some distant islands and dared to proclaim their own emperor. The Chinese were infuriated by that action but since they were in a land that was separated from them by sea, they only cut their ties with the Japanese and labeled as barbarians for not ceding to the Chinese Emperor.

In 1875 the Nanyang Fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy made a visit to Japan and they were scared. Chinese navy was double the size of the Japanese, but lacked training and equipment. The Chinese battleships and cruisers had more than suficient firepower to deal with the Japanese cruisers theoretically, but their crews were raw conscripts and they ran out of ammunition in the middle of the battle. The Chinese fleet engaged on the Yellow Sea (called Northern Sea or Beiyang in Chinese) was the Beiyang fleet) which included about half the Chinese navy. At its peak in 1890, the Beiyang fleet had 2 battleships (of 2 China had), 2 heavy cruisers (of 3 China had), 6 light cruisers (of 12 China had) and about a third of the destroyers and smaller vessels, and during the war that fleet was almost anihilated (if I remember correctly, only 2 cruisers and 3-5 smaller vessels survived the war). China had several problems within its army. First, it was divided amongs several viceroyalties, each with a military leader (rank of marshall) asigned, and each acted independently for everything: tactics, strategy, logistics, acquisition of equipment... In general, the viceroyalty of Zhili (including Peking) was the most important military district when it comes to manpower and equipment. It gathered the Beiyang navy and the New Army, also called Beiyang Army, which did most of the fighting. It was fairly well equiped, but its leader was already too old (he was already a general when the Taiping Rebellion 50 years earlier). The Imperial Chinese Army had begun stablishing military arsenals in order to produce modern equipment (Type 88 Rifle, licensed version of the Mauser 1888), but that was rather recent, so only a fraction of the troops had received those weapons. Most troops had older Remington lever-action rifles bought in the 1870s, which were rather old. Also, China didn't have any railways so moving troops and equipment through the country was difficult. The officers were a mixture between old fashioned officers and a few experienced officers like Yuan Shikai, who even became Emperor.

Could the emperor or empress of China give the viceroys military orders?
@podemosurss8316
@podemosurss8316 6 лет назад
In theory, yes, in the practice those viceroys did what they wanted. Specially given the fact that China was under a regency by that point, and the regent, Empress Dowager Cixí, wasn't a soldier but a politician. She was sort of like the real live equivalent to Cersei Lannister from GoT.
@theatagamer90
@theatagamer90 6 лет назад
fazole They could but like the other guy said, China wasnt in the best state at the time. It had been in severe decline since the Opium Wars against Britain and hadn't had a decent military by any standard for years which really showed. Additionally the Chinese regional leaders had always had a habit of trying to size power for themselves if they saw an opportunity leading to some regional leaders disobeying orders ( A problem that is a constant throughout their history and which tends to foreshadow a dynasties downfall and a subsequent period of chaos until a leader brings the country back under imperial or Totalitarian control)
@podemosurss8316
@podemosurss8316 6 лет назад
The coup against Guangxu was after the war, not during it, but yes on most things. About the Qing Imperial Armies, they had about three branches on land: the eight banners which were, as you said, a caste system. They were small units highly loyal but of limited value in the battlefield by that point. The green standarts, which were most of the forces, and were drafted and maintained by viceroyalties, and the local militias. The green standart, as you say, wasn't paid by the central government but by the local authorities, which meant they had five or six smaller armies without a standarized equipment instead of one big standarized army, which was one of the causes of the warlord era.

Pretty much any war where the army just loots its supplies locally/foraging as it's moving through territory. Good example would be the Mongol invasions, but also some of the crusades and Alexander the Greats conquest of the Persian empire (I think Military History Visualized has an episode about the latter, tl;dv it's mostly about the logistics of fresh recruits and siege equipment to the army and loot from the army) But anything beyond that? Every army needs food. Without food, no fight. Without a fight, you can't win a war.

This is quite interesting when looking at woodblock prints of the era. Of course they depict the classical propaganda imagery of the period, but it seems that the idea of heroic soldiers winning glorious battles and braving the bitter cold are not so much to mask the poor combat performance, but rather to maks the results of Japan's poor logistical performance. This means that the image of heroic sacrifice may possibly have been conjured up mostly to bury stories of soldiers suffering from how unprepared Japan was for its swift victories. An interesting angle for further research.

@fazole
@fazole 6 лет назад
The Chinese appeared to believe simply by buying some battleships that they could win a sea battle. They didn't put much effort into training, and there was the perennial problem of nepotism and connections being used to appoint officers rather than ability or training. There are also stories of artillery shells being filled with sawdust! Something similar was going on in China just some years ago, where balconies were falling off of buildings due to lack of metal reinforcement and other shoddy practices.

They held the UN with huge advantage in light infantry numbers. They also had been uniquely inoculated against UN advantages because fighting the Nationalists had forced them to find ways of dealing with an enemy with an aerial advantage and who was better equipped. Where it failed was that the Red Army during the Civil War had learned that KMT troop would generally shatter into disordered retreat after a single big push. So the Red Army developed the infiltration - mass assault which worked to destroy KMT units. Against Americans these tactics were more costly. American troops would retreat in good order and kept fire discipline. This meant that PVA units were repeating the mass assaults. This led to huge casualties for them.

A couple of points: 1. The abilities of Chinese armies is all over the place. They did badly against the British in the Opium wars and against the Japanese in the first Sino-Japanese war, but they did quite a bit better against the French in the south. So they could fight well against advanced opponents when properly motivated, led, and equipped. 2. Actually, only the northern Chinese fleet was destroyed in the first Sino-Japanese war. The southern Chinese fleet refused to join the war in support of the northern fleet because years earlier, the northern fleet had not supported the southern fleet when the southern fleet was fighting the French as mentioned above. Don’t know if it would have made a difference if both Chinese fleets had fought the Japanese together. Maybe the southern fleet would also have been destroyed, or maybe it had its act together better.

Li Hongzhang was a competent militar leader, a veteran from the Taiping War and a brilliant diplomat. He was a Han chinese and the man for the Qing modernisation, leader of the Beiyang (Northern) Armed Forces, his achievements and power make some manchu nobles in the Imperial court jealous, Li was one of the Empress favourites. The ethnics and jealously were reaaly important, because as you said, the Imperial court make no effort for help Li's war effort and he knew that the japanese army was far better prepared, in the manchu nobility eyes...that was a task for a proper manchu prince rather than a chinese beaurecrat. At the end of the war, he finally achieve his objective and the european powers intervene (for the right price) and that was the seed for the russo japanese war...planted by Li Honghzhang.

Yes, the problem was that he was too old. He was 70 years old when the war begun, and many tactical decisions were flawed. I think that if the Chinese had a younger and also competent commander, like Yuan Shikai or Duan Qirui, they could have won some important engagements. If I was in command of the Chinese forces, I would have made a defensive line (entrenched) on the Taedong river, and drew the conflict into a standstill until a settled peace could be made. All of this while using land supply routes. And of course, I would have the navy better equipped than they had.
@wisdomleader85
@wisdomleader85 5 лет назад
Li was an army commander, he knew nothing about naval affairs. He didn't study in any naval school, didn't know English well enough to read naval magazines back then, and didn't hire anyone to even translate the newest naval books at his time for him. How could you expect someone so ignorant who thought everything could just be solved by pouring in money to win?

Qingdao used to be a German concession back then. They opened a brewery there and after the WWII, the Chinese refurbished the plant and made beer called Tsingtao named after the town where German beer was introduced. The problem with China was slowness to reform. The Qing imperial court was so stuck in the old ways that they didn't adapt to modernization.

It's me again, nitpicking as always: 00:08 "whom send it to me" should be "who sent it to me." "Wem/wen es mir gesendet hat" doesn't make much sense, does it?

Kuintin Ansy - I work with a lot of people your age on a regular basis. I can assure you that a teenager who is focused on improving his/her mind can be FAR more mature than the middle-aged overgrown children who are my neighbors.

Very nice informative video but the akward pauses during some sentences put me a bit off.. like I am supposed to hear anothing sentence but it was actually the end of the sentence.

234jari234 that will be because English isn’t his first language. I think he does a brilliant job. How about instead of slagging off someone’s work, you just didn’t bother watching. Your comment doesn’t actually help in any way does it. Try just being a little nicer to people for a day, it might shock you.

In no way, shape or form did I discredit his video nor the information in it. I'm pointing out that the pauses between some sentences are akward. This just means there is room for improvement for an allready "Very nice informative video".

If you're looking for topics to discuss, consider "friendly fire incidents". E.g., 1943 July 11 -- Gela, Sicily -- the U.S. Navy shot down U.S. planes carrying the 504th Parachute Infantry because the Navy thought that the planes were enemy bombers. 318 dead or wounded. www.americainwwii.com/articles/friendly-fires-deadliest-day/

Ich liebe Ihre Videos, aber dieses hier scheint mir ein bisschen schlecht vorbereitet zu sein (von Skript her), sie scheinen den Faden oft zu verlieren (was sonst nie der Fall bei Ihnen ist). Den noch gutes Video und ein "thumb up".

korrekt, hatte fast ne Woche zwischen den Kern-Punkten und dem Vortrag dazwischen "Pause", die relativ anstregend war.
