On this day, 113 years ago, on July 10, 1912 (May 26, 1912), Yin Changheng, the governor of Sichuan, went to Xizang. The Republic of China was established in 1912. In January, the interim president, Sun Wen, declared, "The foundation of the country is that the people of the Han, Manchu, Mongolian, Hui and Tibetan lands are one country, and the Han, Manchu, Mongolian, Hui and Tibetan ethnic groups are one person, which is called the unity of the nation." In April, Yuan Shikai took office as the president of the Republic of China, issuing an order: "Now that the five ethnic groups are republican, and all the places in Mongolia, Tibet and Huijiang are all part of the territory of the Republic of China, the Mongolian, Tibetan and Huijiang ethnic groups are all nationals of the Republic of China." In October, the president ordered the restoration of the title of the Dalai Lama and the consecration of the Panchen Lama. The order also said that "until the local system has not been uniformly stipulated, the matters that Mongolia, Tibet, and returning to Xinjiang should be handled shall still be handled as usual." However, since the Dalai Lama XIII, with the support of the United Kingdom, ordered the expulsion of the Han army, and around Xizang, Tibet attacked the Han army, Lianyu, Zhongying, etc., the chiefs and leaders of Xikang took the opportunity to cancel the conversion and return to the country. There were riots in various places, and the situation in Kang and Tibet was in chaos for a while. Yuan Shikai ordered the Sichuan overseer Yin Changheng to lead his troops into Kang and Tibet to quell the war, which was called the West Expedition Army. In July, the Sichuan and Yunnan armies progressed smoothly. Three months to quell the Kangzang rebellion. At that time, the troops of Sichuan and Yunnan had already converged on the Lancang River and were ready to march straight towards Lhasa. Militarily speaking, the unification of Xizang was no problem, and Yin Changheng had already made plans to attack Lhasa. But Yuan Shikai's government, determined to gain imperialist support for his rule and emperor, did not hesitate to do the opposite, yielded to British pressure, and ordered Yin Changheng to stop his military operations. At this time, the Dalai Lama was through the Xinjiang overseer Yuan Dahua, and sent people to the arrow furnace to negotiate with the Beijing government to restore relations. The 13th Dalai Lama did not demand "independence" at this time, but only proposed to enjoy greater autonomy under the Chinese regime. Comments: Yin Changheng was a founder of the 1911 Revolution and served as the governor of the Sichuan military government.
