Historical background
1927 In March, Chiang Kai-shek set up another Central Committee in Nanjing, and the contradiction between the Kuomintang Wuhan Wang Ching-wei Group and the Nanjing Chiang Kai-shek Group became public (the so-called "Nanjing-Han split"). Due to the growing influence of China, the Kuomintang began to arrest and execute a large number of people in Nanjing and other places in April, and launched a coup in April 12. In July, the Kuomintang also decided to "clean up the party" in Wuhan, that is, the July 15 Incident. On the one hand, he dismissed Bao Luoting, the representative of the Communist International in China, on the other hand, he informed government departments and the army to expel him.
Chiang Kai-shek and Wang Ching-wei colluded with imperialism, the big landlords and the big bourgeoisie, brutally massacred the people and the revolutionary masses, and failed the great anti-imperialist and anti-feudal revolution of China people from 1924.
