Ninety years of string songs, peach and plum world; ninety years of glory, forge ahead. Today is the 90th birthday of Xidian University. Half of the radio stations started, running schools on the Long March Road, keeping in mind the entrustment of "serving the people" and becoming "scientific clairvoyant tailwind ears". The wind is flourishing, the torch is passed on, and the magnificent and moving picture of Xidian is slowly unfolding to us.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="3" > splash ink - nine rank radio waves, spreading a red picture</h1>
Splash ink into the painting, the momentum is like a rainbow. In the past 90 years of ups and downs, Xidian University has stretched the longest red root vein of Chinese universities, and red radio waves have illuminated tradition, paving the most beautiful background for the magnificent picture of Xidian.
In the early 1930s, the Kuomintang government launched a military encirclement and suppression and economic blockade of the central base areas, and the revolutionary situation was very grim. Under the command of Mao Zedong and Zhu De, the Red Army lured the enemy deeper and won the first victory against encirclement and suppression. The half of the radio stations seized in this battle were the earliest radio communication equipment in the history of our army, and also created the first half of Xidian's life.
In December 1930, the Central Red Army captured half of the radio (the transmitter was damaged) during the First Anti-Encirclement and Suppression Campaign of Longgang
Using this half of the radio, the Party Central Committee is determined to open radio training courses and train its own radio communication technicians. On February 10, 1931, the first radio training course was opened in Xiaobu Village, Ningdu County, Jiangxi Province, which was the first training unit in the history of the Red Army to train radio communication personnel, and since then the communication work of the people's army has entered a new period. Mao Zedong also gave political lectures and made reports on current affairs for the training class many times. After accumulating experience, the training course was expanded into the Central Military Commission Radio School, with Wang Zheng as the president, which was the predecessor of Xidian University.

In October 1934, the school embarked on the 25,000-mile Long March with the Central Red Army, and in October 1935, it triumphantly arrived in northern Shaanxi and established the Central Military Commission Radio Communication School in Yan'an, that is, the Yan'an Tong School, and Xidian also became a glorious school that experienced the Long March. During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, teachers and students of the School actively participated in the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Movement, met the needs of communication and liaison among the troops, and made indelible contributions to the struggle for national independence.

After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the school moved to Hebei, and the North China Military Region Telecommunications Engineering School was established in Hebei. Later, the North China Electric Power College was expanded into the "Engineering School of the Military Committee of the Chinese Revolution", referred to as the "Central Military Commission Engineering School", the school site was located in Zhangjiakou, and the work of the school began to be regularized. In 1958, the school moved to Xi'an, in 1966 it was transformed into a local organization, and in 1988 it was named "Xidian University".
In 1958, the teachers and students of the whole school cherished Zhangjiakou
From the radio training class to the Yan'an General School, from the Yan'an General School to the North China Electric Power College, from the North China Electric Power College to the Central Military Commission Engineering School, from the Central Military Commission Engineering School to the West Military Telecommunications Engineering School, from the West Military Electric Power to the Northwest Telecommunications Engineering College, from the Northwest Telecommunications Engineering College to the Xidian University, Xidian people have always adhered to the original intention and mission, struggled hard for the development of the national communications cause, and made unremitting efforts. Mao Zedong twice wrote an inscription for the school, which showed the cordial concern of the party and state leaders for the school and the high hopes for the students of Xidian.
On November 27, 1949, the opening ceremony of the Central Military Commission Engineering School (the predecessor of Xidian) was held, and Mao Zedong wrote an inscription for the school: Serve the people wholeheartedly
On January 8, 1960, Chairman Mao Zedong once again wrote an inscription for the school: hard work and simplicity
The blue wisps of the road, Yuru Yucheng. Xidian has always walked with the Republic and served the people wholeheartedly. On the road of struggle for 90 years, the glorious red tradition has colored Xidian, and those brave years have added a strong stroke to the development of Xidian.
