The Whole Story of Sino-Russian Ili Negotiations (Free Public Book)

From the fourth year to the seventh year of Guangxu Period (1878), China negotiated for the return of the Chinese territory of Ili to Tsarist Russia, which took advantage of the Kokand leader Agub's invasion of the Tianshan South Road to seize the Chinese territory of Ili in the 10th year of Tongzhi Period (1871). The recorded events such as Chonghou's unauthorized signing of the Treaty of Livadia, which was humiliating and humiliating the country due to coercion by Tsarist Russia, and Zeng Jize's appointment to go to Russia for negotiations to revise the Treaty, can be used as a reference for studying the history of modern Sino-Russian relations.
