From southern Jiangxi to western Fujian, our first stop was Changting County, Fujian Province.
On September 30, 85 years ago, the Red Ninth Army gathered in Zhongfu Village, Changting County and embarked on the Long March. The last battle to defend the Central Soviet Area before departure occurred in Songmaoling in front of Zhongfu Village. Before the war, the people of Changting joined the army enthusiastically, regardless of their gender, age and age.
An old man named Luo Yunran, whose three sons had already died on the battlefield of anti-“encirclement and suppression”. When he learned that the war in Songmaoling was fierce, he sent the remaining three sons to join the army.
When Mao Zedong was in Changting, he often came to this well to chat with the people. He learned that the people in Changting were short of firewood and salt, and rice was expensive. However, the Tingzhou Soviet government only focused on expanding the Red Army and did not pay attention to the actual life problems of the masses. So Mao Zedong wrote down the situation he learned and the solutions he thought about, and please read them one by one.
Moving through the green mountains and green waters of western Fujian, we came to another starting point of the Red Army’s Long March.ref=”https://funnybookish.com/”>CinemaNinghua County, Ninghua CountyBabaylan. “The leeks bloom with one heart, cut off the bun and become the Red Army; protect the Red Army forever, cut off the bun and become the Red Army, and cut off the bun and join the Red Army for a long time.” More than 80 years ago, many local Hakka women cut off their bun and joined the Red Army. Many people died on the Long March. Cinema
We marched from Ninghua County to Qingliu County. CinemaThere is a Red Army slogan on the wall of Mao Zedong’s former residence, and the signature is the 1st Regiment of the 7th Division of the Red Army. This unit was later reorganized into part of the Red 34th Division. The 34th Red Division, who served as the General Guard of the Central Red Army, had more than 6,000 people, mainly children from western Fujian. In order to cover the breakthrough of the main Red Army, almost all of them died in the Battle of Xiangjiang River.
Nearly 30,000 children from western Fujian followed the Central Red Army’s Long March, and only 200 people left to northern Shaanxi.
For the sake of faith, our ancestors were willing to sacrifice blood and sacrifice. Many of their names were not even known to them. But their merits last forever. Walk the Long March again, it is also a root-seeking journey to keep your original aspirations and keep your mission in mind, inspiring future generations to strengthen their faith and move forward fearlessly on the New Long March.
