[edit] Wuhan Incident?

This article refers to the split between the KMT and the CPC as the Wuhan Incident, but according to that article the Wuhan Incident happened in 1967, some forty years after the rupture between the KMT and the CPC! Might there have been two Wuhan incidents? I cannot find any web evidence to support this.

The article Wang Jingwei refers to a similar-sounding split by the name Ninghan Separation. Could this be the name that the original author intended when the "Wuhan Incident" was inserted into this article? I am no Chinese history buff, so I do not know, and I cannot find any reliable web references to bolster this theory either. Can any others validate one theory or the other?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure this looks like the 1927 incident was the April 12 Incident. I'm gonna edit the relevant info accordingly. Ling.Nut 21:24, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] number of troops?

It says on this page that there was an army of 100,000. In a textbook talking about the Northern Expedition, it says there was 90,000. What was the source for the 100,000? Should it be changed?
