[bei3 fa2] --> [Bei3 fa2]
It was in *1928* that Chiang's forces took Beijing.
As far as I can determine, there was no entity known as the Northern Warlords.
The rule of local warlords was by no means limited to the north of China.
Spelling: "Chiang Kai-shek" (with hyphen) seems to be pretty standard.

If an entry for 北伐战争 is retained it should just say "see 北伐"

Editor: this could be discussed. It's not unusual to speak of the northern
warlords, as opposed to the southern KMT. The history of the period is a bit
confused, but Jiang had to fight distinct and powerful entities which were the
official government, not various minor warlords who refused the official rule.
Diff:
- 北伐 北伐 [bei3 fa2] /the Northern Expedition, the Nationalists' campaign of 1926-1927 under Chiang Kaishek against the Northern Warlords/
+ 北伐 北伐 [Bei3 fa2] /the Northern Expedition, the Nationalists' campaign of 1926-1928 under Chiang Kai-shek, against the rule of local warlords/
 
- 北伐戰爭 北伐战争 [Bei3 fa2 zhan4 zheng1] /the Northern Expedition, the Nationalists' campaign of 1926-1927 under Chiang Kaishek against the Northern Warlords/
# 北伐戰爭 北伐战争 [Bei3 fa2 zhan4 zheng1] /see 北伐[Bei3 fa2]/
