For the preservation of revolutionary forces

Peng Dehuai and others evacuated Jinggangshan to set up another base area

Song Renqiang led the secret service company to be responsible for the break

Due to the huge disparity in strength between the enemy and ourselves

Song Ren's poor secret service company was scattered

He gritted his teeth and overcame all kinds of obstacles

With a strong revolutionary will
