【摘要】：珠江三角洲地区水网密布的自然环境和香港、澳门这两个自由港的存在,为晚清时期鸦片走私进入内地提供了极其便利的条件。围绕着鸦片这棵巨大的摇钱树,走私与缉私成为了各方较量的一个竞技场。中外走私商利用港澳的特殊环境与外国领事裁判权,同香港政府、广东腐败官员相互勾结,组织起庞大的走私网络并配以先进武器,进行猖獗的走私活动以牟取暴利。为打击鸦片走私,海关和广东地方政府试图通过加强缉私船武器配备、建立沿岸警戒线、雇佣线工、实行奖惩等措施来抑制走私,虽收到一定成效,但都是治标不治本的一时之计,并不能从根本上解决走私问题。到1887年开始实行鸦片税厘并征政策,设立拱北关和九龙关,从而将华船也置于严密掌控之下,使鸦片走私活动受到进一步打击,但鸦片走私并未因此销声匿迹。
[Abstract]:The natural environment in the Pearl River Delta area and the existence of two free ports in Hong Kong and Macao have provided extremely convenient conditions for opium smuggling in the late Qing period. Smuggling and anti-smuggling have become an arena for the parties to fight around the huge amount of opium. The Chinese and foreign smugglers, using the special environment of the Hong Kong and Macao Special Environment and the right to foreign affairs, collude with the Hong Kong government and Guangdong corrupt officials, and organized a large smuggling network and equipped with advanced weapons to carry out rampant smuggling activities to make a profit. In ord to combat that smuggling of opium, the Customs and the local government of Guangdong have tried to suppress the smuggling through the strengthening of the weapons of the anti-smuggling ship, the establishment of the coast guard line, the employment of line workers and the application of reward and punishment. And can not fundamentally solve the problem of smuggling. By the beginning of 1887, the introduction of the opium tax-related policy, the establishment of an arch of the North and the Kowloon closure, thus placing the vessel under close control, the smuggling of opium was further combated, but the smuggling of opium did not disappear.
