The battle of crossing the Yangtze River began on April 20, 1949 and ended on June 2, 1949, lasting 42 days, annihilating more than 430,000 Kuomintang troops, breaking through the Yangtze River defense line jointly composed of the Kuomintang army, navy and air force in one fell swoop, and completely shattering the Kuomintang government's dream of "dividing the river and ruling the river". This was another major battle fought by the Chinese People's Liberation Army after its victories in the three major battles of Liaoshen, Huaihai, and Pingjin, laying a solid foundation for liberating the whole of China and establishing New China.
