• Wanhsien Incident: British Naval Confrontation with Chinese Forces On September 5, 1926, a significant maritime conflict occurred in Wanhsien, China, involving a camouflaged and armored British merchant ship, SS Kiawo, and Chinese-occupied vessels. The incident escalated when the SS Kiawo attempted to board a Chinese merchant ship, provoking return fire from Chinese troops on shore.

The confrontation resulted in substantial casualties: approximately 22 British personnel killed, 250 Chinese military personnel dead, and 100 civilian casualties, highlighting the intense military tensions during this period of colonial interactions in China.
