NFSC Speaks series outlining a century of the CCP's historical atrocities, one crime at a time.
A Century of Crimes: An Outline of the Historical Atrocities of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)
Crime 7: Terror and Mass Slaughter
Within the territory of the Chinese Soviet Republic, the CCP unleashed a campaign of terror and mass slaughter. Under the guise of "striking down local despots and redistributing land," they murdered landlords and ordinary civilians, seizing wealth to fund their military operations. In the Hubei-Henan-Anhui border region alone, over 1.5 million people were killed, while in Jiangxi Province, more than 400,000 lives were taken.
Context Note for International Readers: These early radical land policies set the template for mass class violence, which later expanded nationwide after 1949.

Crime 6: Splitting the Nation
On November 7, 1931, the CCP established the "Chinese Soviet Republic"—a puppet regime of the Soviet Union in China—with Ruijin, Jiangxi, as its capital and Mao Zedong as its chairman. Through this, they engaged in armed secession and the division of the nation. Prior to this, the Soviet Union had already fostered the creation of two other pro-Soviet puppet regimes in China: one in Outer Mongolia and another in Tannu Uriankhai.
Context Note for International Readers: Nov. 7 was deliberately chosen to coincide with the anniversary of Moscow's October Revolution, demonstrating the CCP's alignment with Soviet patronage.

Crime 5: Armed Defense of the Soviet Union
In August 1929, the "Chinese Eastern Railway" conflict broke out, with the forces of the Soviet Union attacking Northeast China. On August 13, Chinese Communist figures, including Liu Bocheng and Ye Jianying, responded to a call from the Soviet Union by joining the "Far Eastern Workers' Guerrilla Detachment," assisting the Soviet military in its offensive against Hailar in China’s Heilongjiang Province. During their period of armed separatism, these Chinese Communists openly championed the slogan "Armed Defense of the Soviet Union." They incited armed uprisings to tie down government forces, thereby facilitating the Soviet Union’s armed aggression against China’s Outer Mongolia and Northeast regions. China’s defeat in the Chinese Eastern Railway conflict paved the way for Japan’s "September 18 Incident" in 1931 and the Soviet seizure of Northeast China.
Context Note for International Readers: The 1929 Sino-Soviet Conflict saw the Republic of China try to reclaim control over a key railway line in Manchuria, during which the CCP openly sided with the invading Soviet military against their own nation.

Crime 4: Armed Insurrection
On August 1, 1927, under the instigation and support of Soviet Union, CCP leaders Zhou Enlai, Zhu De, He Long, Liu Bocheng, Ye Ting, and others staged a military uprising in Nanchang. In the autumn of 1927, Communist leader Mao Zedong launched the "Autumn Harvest Uprising"—an armed rebellion—along the Hunan-Jiangxi border. Following his defeat, he established an armed separatist base in the Jinggang Mountains.
Context Note for International Readers: The Nanchang Uprising of August 1, 1927, is celebrated by the CCP as the founding day of the People's Liberation Army (PLA), though it was legally an insurrection against the Nationalist government of the Republic of China.

Crime 3: Mass Killings in Hailufeng
The CCP leader Peng Pai carried out mass killings in the Hailufeng region of Guangdong province. Not only did he commit murders himself, but he also coerced his subordinates into killing 20 people each. In total, Peng Pai and his subordinates slaughtered over 1,000 landlords and tens of thousands of ordinary civilians. In 1929, the Nationalist government captured and executed Peng Pai. During the Cultural Revolution, four of his relatives—his son, a cousin, and nephews—were killed by local people seeking retribution; his mother, then nearly 100 years old, was also subjected to "struggle sessions" and imprisonment—a form of karmic retribution.
Context Note for International Readers: The Hailufeng Soviet (1927) was the first short-lived communist Soviet established in rural China, marked by extreme terror policies.

Crime 2: Treason: Collusion with a Foreign Power
In 1927, CCP founder Li Dazhao conspired with the Soviet Union to undermine the nation’s territorial integrity. He was caught red-handed and arrested by the Beiyang government within the Soviet embassy. Li Dazhao confessed to his actions and was sentenced to death by hanging for the crime of "conspiring with the Soviet Union and colluding with a foreign power."
Context Note for International Readers: The Beiyang Government was the internationally recognized government of the Republic of China (1912–1928) based in Beijing.

Crime 1: An Imported Organization
In 1920 and 1921, the CCP founders Chen Duxiu, Li Dazhao, and others met with Comintern representatives—Grigori Voitinsky, Henk Sneevliet (known as "Marin"), and Vladimir Nikolsky—to organize the founding of the CCP. That July, the Russian Communist Party provided each delegate with 150 silver dollars for travel expenses, enabling 13 representatives to gather in Shanghai for the party’s inaugural congress. Nikolsky and Marin were both in attendance. From 1928 until the Comintern’s dissolution in 1943, the CCP’s own constitution explicitly defined the party as a branch of the Comintern. Nikolsky, who was executed by the Soviet regime in 1938, held only the rank of captain within the Soviet security apparatus. That speaks to the low status of the CCP, which was merely a branch of the Comintern.
Context Note for International Readers: Moscow controlled the Comintern (Third International) as an instrument to export the Bolshevik revolution globally. In its founding phase, the CCP functioned essentially as a foreign-funded and directed political franchise of the Soviet Union. #TakeDownTheCCP
