The Underbelly of Empire: Ten Moments of China's Vulnerability
by I
About This Novel
No matter how powerful an empire is, it still has weaknesses that cannot be concealed. Don't think that the covenant represents equality and commitment. In many cases, it is a charity given by the strong and a concession made by the weak. In the confrontation of political interests, only the light of swords and the shadow of iron horses are the most real. The unequal alliances in Chinese history have exposed the weaknesses of various empires, weak diplomacy, unscrupulous aggressiveness, and secretive submission. This book will tell you about them all.

Zeng Jize was the most outstanding diplomat in late Qing Dynasty
His negotiations with the British on the issue of northern Burma were also brilliant. We did not lose our rights and humiliate the country, but we also won the territory that should belong to us. Look at how we and small countries like Myanmar actually ceded large areas of territory to seek peace after the founding of the People's Republic of China. How can they be worthy of Mr. Zeng's spirit in heaven?
