摘要
中法战争爆发前,日本政府在面对法国同盟邀请时,基于本国财政、海军以及修约等问题的考虑,选择了示好中国,婉拒法国的立场。而战争爆发后,日本政府转而采取两手策略,两面下注投机。一方面,在中法问题上亦步亦趋地追随英德美三国;另一方面,私下依旧在设法改善同中国的关系。此举目的在于应对战争可能导致的不同结果,即如发生列强瓜分中国的狂潮或战争最终和平解决都能获利。日本政府借助中法战争,提高了本国国际地位,促进了内政外交难题的解决,加速了军备扩张的脚步。中法战争是甲午中日战争的一次预警信号,客观上导致日本发动侵华战争的时间有所提前。
Before the outbreak of the Sino-French War,the Japanese government,facing the invitation from France to form an alliance,chose to take a position of being friendly to China and rejecting France with the considerations of its own national finance,navy and treaty amendment.After the outbreak of war,the Japanese government adopted a two-sided strategy.On the one hand,it followed Britain,Germany and the United States regarding the Sino-French issues.On the other hand,it secretly expressed its goodwill to China.The purpose of this strategy was to cope with the different results of the war,either triggering imperialist powers to divide China or the peaceful settlement of the war.With the help of the Sino-French War,the Japanese government improved its international status,promoted to solve the difficulties of its internal affairs and diplomacy,completed a training of how to invade China,and accelerated the pace of its arms expansion.It can be said that the Sino-French War is an early warning sign of the Sino-Japanese War in 1894,and objectively advanced the time when Japan launched the war of aggression against China.
