Mao Zedong thought that only when Liu Shaoqi and so on were overthrown on the charge of "capitalist-roaders", there might be a chance to overturn the cases in the future, and only when they were overthrown on the charge of "traitors" could be reliable. So in 1966, Mao launched the Cultural Revolution and at the same time launched a nationwide mass campaign to "catch traitors". Zhou Enlai took the lead in criticizing Qu Qiubai as "traitor" who had twice served as general secretary of the Communist Party of China and had been killed by the Kuomintang in 1936. The Red Guard s immediately took actions and a large number of veteran cadres have been identified as traitors all over the country. In Haifeng County of Guangdong Province, the hometown of Peng Bai who was the leader of the CPC killed by Kuomintang in 1929, the rebels of the County criticizing Peng Bai as a traitor in 1967, for this reason more than 100 people were killed more than 3000 injured, and more than 800 were disabled.
