When we talk about Lake Baikal, there is always a deep regret in the hearts of many Chinese. This land, which once belonged to us, is now in the arms of another country. Lake Baikal, a freshwater lake in Siberia and known as the "Pearl of Siberia", contains fresh water resources that can be used by the world's population for more than 30 years, and the surrounding resources are rich and have not yet been developed on a large scale.
The historical ties of Lake Baikal with China can be traced back to the Western Han Dynasty. Different dynasties called it differently, from Beihai to Xiaohai to Baihar Lake, this area has witnessed the vicissitudes of Chinese history. Huo Quai's northern expedition and Su Wu's sheep herding all show the close ties between Lake Baikal and China.
However, the wheels of history rolled forward, and the Battle of Yaksa during the Qing-Russian War became a watershed in history. The Qing Dynasty signed three treaties with Russia in the midst of internal and external troubles, and the Baikal basin was transferred to Russia. This decision has made Lake Baikal a "difficult peace" in the hearts of countless Chinese.
Chairman Mao once lamented the historical status of Lake Baikal. As the train passed through Irkutsk, he saw the vast lake and felt endless emotion in his heart. His words, "How good it would be if this were still China's territory," seemed to have resonated in the hearts of tens of millions of Chinese.
This history is not used to arouse indignation or pathos, but to let us not forget the past, always remain vigilant, and make unremitting efforts for the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. While we can't change history, we can look to the future and work for the strength of our country.
Regarding the future of Baikal, some have put forward the idea of buying it back. Although it may sound somewhat unrealistic, behind this idea is a reflection of people's concern for the loss of territory and the desire for national integrity. This desire has a deep meaning, both for historical sentiment and for the abundant natural resources of the Baikal region, such as oil, gas, minerals and water.
Lake Baikal also has great tourism potential. Whether it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, it has a unique charm that attracts countless travel enthusiasts. Moreover, if Lake Baikal can be included in China, in the future, we can even realize the transfer of water from the north to the south, solve the problem of water shortage in northern China, and even create a plug in the desert area of the Gobi desert in Xinjiang.
Although these assumptions are full of reverie, we must also be soberly aware that the reality is complex, and international relations are even more subtle and changeable. We can dream and imagine, but more importantly, we must be committed to our own strength, and to safeguard the interests and dignity of the country with strength and wisdom.
The story of Lake Baikal is both a piece of history and a kind of expectation. It reminds us that both individuals and countries should have the courage to stay true to their original aspirations, the wisdom to face reality, and the foresight to look forward to the future. We can't rewrite history, but we can create the future. Lake Baikal, the place that once belonged to us, will forever be engraved in our hearts and inspire us to keep moving forward.
