     There were more or less frequent steamers, of a kind, from Nanning down the Si-kiang to Wuchow on the eastern edge of the province, and several flew the American flag; not that they were really American bottoms, but merely that a man or two had found it lucrative to save them from the dangers of confiscation by registering at the American consulate in Canton, for a small fee or a kind of royalty on their earnings, boats that were mainly if not entirely Chinese-owned.

     The Si Kiang is one of China’s major rivers and forms the principal avenue of commerce for Liangkwang and the southwest. It is navigable for junks to the borders of Yunnan, while river steamers may reach Wuchow at the eastern margin of Kwangsi. Except for occasional sand bars and sharp bends, it might be utilized by ocean vessels. Wuchow may be compared with Hankow on the Yangtze, since it is a river junction and commercial port of considerable importance.

     At the end of January 1925, Wang Ching-wei (Chairman of the Canton Government) and T’an Yen-k’ai paid a visit to Wuchow, as a prelude to official negotiations. The two men made a round of speeches and visits, and were enthusiastically received by the people of Wuchow. Informal discussions were held with the Kwangsi leaders, who again signified their willingness for an alliance, and their desire to participate in a northern expedition.
