Page "Chiang Kai-shek" Paragraph 126

During Chiang's rule, attacks on foreigners by Kuomintang forces flared up in several incidents.

One of these was the Battle of Kashgar ( 1934 ) where a Muslim army loyal to the Kuomintang massacred 4, 500 Uyghurs, and killed several British at the British consulate in Kashgar.

The British were unable to retaliate.
