The first page of the book is Chairman Mao's incisive exposition on the great significance of the Long March: "The Long March is the first time in the historical record, the Long March is the manifesto, the Long March is the propaganda team, and the Long March is the planter." Since Pangu opened the world and the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to the present, has there ever been a Long March like ours in history? In the middle of twelve months, dozens of planes in the sky reconnaissance and bombing every day, hundreds of thousands of troops underground chased and intercepted, and encountered endless difficulties and obstacles on the road, but we started to drive each person's two feet, drove more than 20,000 miles, and crisscrossed eleven provinces. Have there ever been such a long march in history as ours? No, never. The Long March is also a manifesto. It declares to the whole world that the Red Army is a hero and a good man, and that the imperialists and their lackeys, Chiang Kai-shek, and others are utterly useless. The Long March declared the bankruptcy of imperialism and Chiang Kai-shek's encirclement and blockade. The Long March is also a propaganda team. It declared to the people of eleven provinces of about twenty million that only the road of the Red Army was the way to their liberation. If not for this, how could the broad masses of the people so quickly know that there is still such a big truth as the Red Army in the world? The Long March is again a seeder. It spread many seeds in eleven provinces, germinated, long leaves, flowered, and bears fruit, and will be harvested in the future. In short, the Long March ended with our victory and the defeat of the enemy. ”
