Imagine the years when green silk changed white hair, and the past was like smoke. Today, I will tell you a legendary story that took place during the period of the agrarian revolution, a legendary story about the Long March. In that magnificent era, heroes were born one after another, and life and death were at stake. The protagonists of the story are a group of young people who fight for their faith, and behind them, they have left behind a complex story and the hope of a new China.

In 1933, during the agrarian revolution, the Red Army was defeated and retreated in the fifth anti-encirclement and suppression, making heavy sacrifices, fighting hard for the land, and struggling for survival.
This is a war related to the survival of the Chinese nation, and every life seems so small. At that time, I was part of that heroic Red Army, and I went through many years of suffering.
The Red Army was forced to withdraw from the occupied areas north and south of the Yangtze River, and while the bitter fighting was fighting, the central Soviet zone was shrinking and its strategic space was limited. This is our low point, but also the moment when we rise up. On the evening of October 10, 1934, more than 86,000 people from Jiangxi, Fujian and other places set out on the long road.
In the Battle of Xiangjiang, we suffered unprecedented heavy losses and were full of dangers.
However, it was at this moment of crisis that Mao Zedong re-established his leadership through the Zunyi Conference, and our Red Army began to change its strategic direction and look for areas where the enemy was weakly defended to break through. The Zunyi Conference became a life-and-death turning point for the Red Army, and we began to move in the direction of hope.
In the course of the Long March, we crossed the treacherous Dadu River, climbed over snow-capped mountains, and broke through the Kuomintang's defenses. After going through countless hardships and hardships, the Red Army finally met in Gansu in October 1936, and the Long March came to a successful end. It's a legendary adventure and an iron-blooded journey.
However, behind the Long March, there is a forgotten history - the Fujian Incident. In 1932, the Chiang Kai-shek clique turned a blind eye to the Japanese threat, but sent the Nationalist army to suppress the Communists. The 19th Route Army received national support for its anti-Japanese activities and began to oppose Chiang. When the Fujian Incident broke out, the 19th Route Army and Chiang Kai-shek drifted apart, and were surrounded and suppressed by 110,000 Kuomintang troops, and finally annihilated. This is a story full of blood, tears and tragedy, and a testimony of a group of heroes who fought bloodily for a just cause.
The CCP's contact with the 19th Route Army and the missed opportunity have become a regret in this period of history. The People's Revolutionary Government of the Republic of China was established, which was linked to the Red Army, with Li Jishen as chairman.
He proposed to unite the Red Army against Chiang, Mao Zedong agreed but lacked power, and Li Debogu and others refused. The 19th Route Army was finally annihilated, and the Central Red Army lost the opportunity to get out of trouble and could only continue the long march.
The Long March injected new vitality into the Red Army and sowed the seeds of revolution. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Li Jishen was elected vice president of the country, which was recognized by Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai. Mao Zedong recalled Li Jishen's suggestions during the Long March and deeply regretted them. If this suggestion had been accepted at the time, perhaps the arduous long march would not have been necessary.
Social Care:
This period of history has aroused widespread attention and discussion in society.
Some people praised the heroic struggle of the Red Army, believing that they were national heroes who had made great contributions to the birth of New China. As for the Fujian Incident, some people expressed indignation at the actions of the Kuomintang, believing that their lack of internal unity and external resistance led to the destruction of the 19th Route Army. The anti-Chiang sentiment in society also gradually heated up at this time, and the contradictions between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party became increasingly acute.
There are also different views on the missed opportunities between the CCP and the 19th Route Army. Some people believe that if they could unite at that time, they might be able to change the course of history and make China's development path more stable. However, there are also those who believe that history is a series of accidents and inevitability, and that every decision is made in the context of the time, and it is not easy to be demanding.
Summary:
The Long March is a legend of tribulation and glory. The Red Army rose up in the face of adversity, went through many hardships, and finally overcame difficulties and achieved a great transformation. The Fujian Incident was a shadow of that era, witnessing the tragedy of justice. The failure of the CCP and the 19th Route Army has become a regrettable history, which has cast a long-term heavy burden on the development of New China.
The whole history presents a tortuous but glorious picture, and the struggle of the heroes has planted a deep seed of hope for us today. The story of the Long March tells us that no matter how difficult it is, as long as we stick to our faith and work hard, we will be able to create miracles.
