回到历史有时很简单,当你在欣赏某件历史遗存时,往往就已经与历史形成了交汇.甚至有时这些遗存还会告诉你一些事情. * q3 ^5 q: h& t; ^

看到地图的内容,您又会想问.这是谁,在什么时候描绘的?这儿描绘的是北京吗?什么时候描绘的?有什么含义呢?很遗憾,究竟是谁描绘的我并不清楚.我清楚的是这儿描绘的的确是北京,或者也称为"北平".描绘的含义我想每个人的理解都不一样,熟悉一段历史的人或许更容易参透.

The defeat of the Chinese Imperial forces in the 2nd Opium War (1856-1860) was secured by the final advance on Peking in the summer of 1860. The combined British and French forces re-captured the Taku forts at the mouth of the Pei-Ho river on 21st August and then advanced up-river, finally reaching Peking on 22nd Spetember 1860. With the allies arrival, the Emperor went into exile and the Summer Palace was burnt by the British. ' X; A$ H7 @ r/ L3 ]
Louis Aubaret commanded the French vessel 'Pregent' in the battle fleet of Admiral Charner. The present maps detail the chronology of the advance of a contingent of French forces from the Taku forts to Yuanmingyuan (The Summer Palace) and the details of all the camps and actions.
