| In April 1928, Chiang Kai-shek was reinstated to the commander of the National Revolutionary Army, the position he previous resigned to take responsibility for splitting the KMT during the First Northern Expedition. He proceeded with the Second Northern Expedition and was approaching Peking near the end of May. The Beiyang Government in Peking was forced to dissolve as a result, in which Zhang Zuolin abandoned Peking to return to Manchuria, and was assassinated in the Huanggutun by the Japanese Kwantung Army. Manchuria remained held by the Fengtian clique however, still hanging the banner of the Beiyang Government. The ultimate objective of the Northern Expedition was not fully accomplished.
