1908年中日二辰丸案交涉始末

光緒34(1908)年，日本商船二辰丸運載軍火，停泊在中國東南海面等待買方接應。後來，二辰丸遭到廣東水師盤查、扣押，是爲事件之濫觴。隨即，日本外務省要求北京外務部必須馬上歸還船隻、賠償損失，及嚴懲地方失職人員。外務部欲將此地方涉外事件，直接交由廣東與日本駐廣州領事就地解決即可。惟兩方立場不一，認知差距大，引發爭論。最終，外務部介入其中，主動對日交涉，以弭平爭端。外務省援引國際法、戰爭法，抗議廣東水師擅自撤下船上懸掛的日本國旗，侮蔑日本，要求外務部必須歸還船隻、謝罪道歉、賠償損失與嚴懲禍首。然而，外務部汲取多方意見，認爲廣東撤旗之舉有嚴重疏失，決定先歸還船隻與對日示歉；然外務部並非完全妥協，反倒堅持中國領海權與查緝軍火走私之權利，賡續談判。領海問題方面，日本、葡萄牙視澳門爲葡屬地，以喀羅灣爲葡屬領海，廣東無權於此扣押船隻。對此，外務部宣示船隻停泊喀羅灣東部係屬中國領海，又引《中葡條約》斥責葡萄牙肆意擴展澳門勢力範圍。軍火問題方面，日本要求軍火同船隻歸還，惟廣東以軍火走私確已嚴重危害地方治安，不可妥協，若開惡例則後果嚴重。最終，外務部決議由廣東收購軍火平息糾紛，並藉此換取日本允諾，協助杜絕走私軍火赴澳門。晚清列強在華走私軍火猖獗，二辰丸事件不僅引起中日間的爭議，更成爲列強關注的焦點。外務部化解危機後，與日本達成杜絕軍火走私澳門之共識，且透過此模式請英國禁絕香港軍火走私，更主動與各國簽定《改訂槍彈進口新章》，藉此條約規範外國在華走私軍火。除此之外，外務部在事件落幕後與葡萄牙勘查澳門界址，進而設置軍隊駐防，鞏固中國對澳門的控制權及領海權。
