The British captured Chusan, the largest island of an archipelago of that name. == Background == On 4July 1840, the ''Wellesley'', ''Conway'', ''Alligator'', and ''Rattlesnake'' arrived in the anchorage off Chusan harbour.〔 In the afternoon, Captain John Vernon Fletcher of the ''Wellesley'', Viscount Robert Jocelyn, and interpreter Karl Gützlaff were sent on board the junk of a Chinese admiral, who was also governor of the Chusan islands.〔〔Jocelyn 1841, p. 49〕 They delivered a written message from Commodore James Bremer, commander-in-chief of the British naval forces, and Brigadier George Burrell, commander-in-chief of the land forces, to surrender the island of Chusan.〔Ouchterlony 1841, p. vi〕 Bremer and Burrell claimed the occupation was necessary after the "insulting and unwarrantable conduct of the Canton high officers, 'Lin' and 'Tang,' last year, towards H. M.'s specially appointed Chief Superintendent Elliot, and British subjects."〔Ouchterlony 1841, p. vii〕 Part of the message stated: After an hour, the Chinese admiral and other officials accompanied the British on board the ''Wellesley''.〔〔Jocelyn 1841, p. 51〕 The Chinese objected to being made answerable for actions at Canton, saying, "those are the people you should make war upon, and not upon us who never injured you; we see your strength, and know that opposition will be madness, but we must perform our duty if we fall in so doing."〔Jocelyn 1841, p. 52〕 They were informed that hostilities would commence if submission was not made before daylight the next day.〔 Their last words before departing at 8:00 pm were, "If you do not hear from us before sunrise, the consequences be upon our own heads."〔〔''The Annual Register'' 1841, p. 577〕 Bremer wrote that "gongs and other warlike demonstrations were audible" throughout the evening.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Capture of Chusan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
