What are the time and background influences of the 2.27 tragedy in history?
After the Beijing-Hankow railway strike was realized, the imperialist envoys to China held an emergency meeting and decided to send a serious warning to the Beijing government, urging it to take military measures to suppress the strike immediately. Lawlingfair, British Consul General in Hankou, convened a secret meeting between Xiao Yaonan and representatives of foreign capitalists at the consulate on the 6th to plan to suppress the strike. In this way, with the support and pressure of imperialism, on February 7, warlord Wu raised a butcher's knife to the workers and created the "February 7" tragedy. Han Jing Railway Federation of Trade Unions is located on the river bank, which has become the focus of warlord slaughter. On the afternoon of February 7, in the name of negotiation, the military police sent armed forces to surround the Federation of Trade Unions and shot and slaughtered them. The venue in front of the trade unions was red with blood. The arrested workers were tied to the telephone poles at Jiang 'an Station. Zhang Housheng, chief of staff of Hubei Governor, found Lin Xiangqian, chairman of Jiang 'an Branch, with a lantern, and forced him to go back to work in the forest while cutting with a knife. Lin Xiangqian would rather die than surrender. He was hacked alive and beheaded. He was only 3l when he died. That night, party member Shiyang, a famous labor lawyer, was arrested and imprisoned. 15 At 6: 00 am on February 6, Xiao Yaonan secretly killed Shi Yang in Wuchang on the charge of "inciting labor unrest" at the age of 34. There were 52 martyrs who died in the "February 27" tragedy on Han Jing Road, including 39 in Jiang 'an. In addition, more than 300 people were injured, more than 60 people were arrested, and 1000 people were expelled from the factory and exiled. After the riverside tragedy, Hubei was shrouded in white terror. All the imperialist marines also landed, ready to slaughter the strikers on a larger scale. In order to preserve their strength, on February 9, the Jinghan Railway Federation of Trade Unions and the Hubei Provincial Federation of Trade Unions jointly issued a "Resume Work Order", and the workers reluctantly resumed work. At this point, the vigorous Beijing-Han railway strike came to an end under the joint attack of imperialism and feudal warlords. The Jing-Han Railway Strike was an unprecedented and fierce anti-imperialist and anti-feudal revolutionary movement led by the China Production Party in its early days. It is of great and far-reaching historical significance in the history of the workers' movement in China and the people's revolution in China. This strike is a combination of political struggle and economic struggle. The political struggle ensured and expanded the achievements of the economic struggle, marking the development of the workers' movement in China to a new stage. It fully shows the thorough revolutionary spirit and high organizational discipline of the working class in China against imperialism and feudalism, and marks that the working class in China has stepped onto the world political stage. The Jing-Han railway strike also fully exposed the brutality of the northern warlords who ruled China at that time and their attributes as lackeys of western imperialist powers, which fully showed that China at that time still belonged to a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society.
