What is the Long March? What is the spirit of the Long March? Read the story of the Long March and follow the "Long March Road" of our generation.

▽ "The arm is burnt, hold on to the chain and don’t let go."

　　In the fierce battle of flying over Luding Bridge, the enemy was afraid when he saw the warriors getting closer and closer to the bridge. He planned to burn the bridgehead and let the Red Army die with the bridge. The iron chain on the bridge became red and hot, and the Red Army still climbed to the other side. Liu Sufang, the daughter of Liu Jinshan, a warrior who flew away from Luding Bridge, recalled: My father said that when he was climbing the iron chain, he smelled a burning smell under his arm, like lard burning, but his hand on the iron chain never loosened … …

▽ "I touched a piece of skin, threw it away and walked on."

　　At the beginning of March 1935, the 31st Army of the Red Fourth Front Army set up a sharp knife company to try to cross the Jialing River. At that time, the Central Red Army was at the critical moment of crossing the Chishui River in Sidu. If the Red Fourth Front Army could fight the Jialing River and disperse the enemy forces, it would give strong support to the Central Red Army. Although the soldiers fought bravely to kill the enemy, they were finally outnumbered. Only one person came back alive, and that was Liu Yingqi.

　

　　He recalled: "When I got into the river, the enemy came and knocked for a while. I tied the gun to my belt for a while, holding my nose with one hand and scraping the bottom of the river with the other, and walked a few steps to change the water. When the enemy saw it, he said that he had run to communist party and said that he had beaten and pulled off his bones — — I didn’t hit it. I felt it was a piece of skin. I threw it away and continued to walk. The troops behind us took scouts, and a dozen people tooted their guns and beat the enemy back. "

▽ "It’s not like I’m the only one with a broken toe. What are you sad about?"

　　The hardest thing in the Long March is hunger day after day. Many Red Army soldiers were starved to death on the road, and hunger also made Wang Dingguo skinny. At that time, her weight was less than 25 kilograms, and she followed the troops over the snow-capped mountains in a light coat, but one of her toes remained there forever. Mentioning this past, she said simply, "I fell asleep at night, and many people couldn’t cover it. It was too cold and stiff. I touched it and broke it. That can’t be helped, and it can’t be used to stick if it is frozen. There is nothing sad, and I am not alone. What are so many people sad about? "

▽ "When the sweater is cooked, the pot is full of lice."　

　　The marching is tense, the environment is harsh, and the sanitary conditions are poor. Not to mention taking a bath, even the face can’t be washed. Many female soldiers are covered with lice on their heads and upper bodies. Zhong Yuelin has an old sweater, which she wears all day and night. After a long time, the sweater is full of lice. Zhong Yuelin said that at that time, Mao Zedong’s wife, He Zizhen, saw that she was all bitten, and gave her an idea to take off her sweater and cook the lice to death. As a result, as soon as the sweater was cooked, the pot was full of lice.

▽ "The last dues will be handed over for you."　

　　When the troops crossed Dangling Mountain, we found many frozen comrades’ bodies lying in the snow. Wu Xianen, a soldier, saw an arm exposed in the snow, and wanted to approach. He buried the body of this comrade-in-arms with snow again, only to find that something was still clenched in the fist of this sacrificed comrade-in-arms. He went up and carefully broke the hand of this comrade-in-arms, and when he saw it, his hand was clenched — — It is a party card and a piece of Baiyang. The party card reads: Liu Zhihai, officially party member of the Communist Party of China, joined the party in March 1933 … …

▽ "Before he died, he was carrying two sweet potatoes that he didn’t want to eat."

　　On the way of the Red Army crossing the snow-capped mountains, a platoon leader who was disabled by injury was responsible for the work of the regiment feeding team. In order to send food to the troops on the snowy mountain, he carried more than 100 kilograms of food on his back and went to the mountain in the wind and snow, but he did not return to the team for several days. Comrades anxiously went up the mountain to look for it, and found a "dumb platoon leader" halfway up the mountain. He was lying on the snow, with heavy grain on his body, his right hand stretched out vigorously, his fingers dug deeply in the snow and ice, his body kept crawling upward, and his arms were still carrying two sweet potatoes … …

▽ "Before stepping out of the grass, there is still a tragic sacrifice."　

　　Wang Ping, the political commissar of the 11th Regiment of the Red Army, who was in charge of the reception at that time, wrote in his memoirs: Our 11th Regiment crossed the Banyou River, and it has walked more than 70 miles. The commander of Peng Dehuai told me that there were still hundreds of people beyond the Banyou River, and ordered me to take a battalion back to meet them across the river. When we returned to the Banyou River and saw many soldiers sitting around on the other side of the river, we shouted, but there was no sound. So I sent someone to cross the river, and when I saw it, all the people sitting there were sacrificed and out of breath … … A small Red Army found was still breathing, and was later sacrificed.

▽ "A belt, eat half, leave half"

　　Zhou Guangcai, a soldier of the Red Fourth Army, took part in the Long March at the age of thirteen or fourteen. When crossing the grass, dry food, wild vegetables and gun belts were all eaten up by comrades and began to eat leather belts. Finally, it’s Zhou Guangcai’s turn to eat his belt. After the belt was eaten, it was estimated that he would walk out of the grass. He cried and begged his comrades to keep the belt. In order to remember that unforgettable time, he kept half a belt and burned the words "Long March" on it.

▽ "I am a piece of steel in politics"　

　　On the Long March, Zheng Jinyu, a small correspondent of the Red 24 regiment, was seriously ill because of hunger and cold. His political commissar gave him the horse, and he couldn’t sit still on the horse. Finally, his comrades tied him to the horse with a rope and left. The day before he was about to walk out of the grass, he suddenly said to the political commissar, "political commissar, I can’t do it." Politically, I am a piece of steel, but I really can’t hold on. I am going to die, and I can’t see the victory of the revolution. " After saying this, he died on horseback. That year, he was 17 years old.

▽ "I wish you happiness and reach your destination smoothly"　

　　The grass is covered with swamps, and every step may be a trap of death. Zhang Buxing, then 18 years old, still clearly remembers the sacrifice of a female Red Army. He recalled: "There was a poor woman who said," Little brother, please give me a hand. I pulled her, but she couldn’t move, and she got deeper and deeper. She said you give up quickly, give up quickly, and you will come down without giving up. There is no way, watching her slowly disappear, leaving a head, and finally saying ‘ I wish you happiness and a smooth arrival at your destination. ’ It won’t be there for a while, and it’s all trapped inside. "

▽ "Life is like a long March, we are always on the road."

　　On the way to the Long March, the Red Army fought bravely in Xiangjiang River, crossing Chishui River four times, crossing Jinsha River skillfully, crossing Dadu River forcibly, flying over Luding Bridge, fighting Dushu Town and Yongkebao, moving to Wumeng Mountain, repelling millions of vicious pursuers, conquering iceberg snow ridge, crossing swamp grass, and driving 25,000 miles.

　　Once, "you can find the way forward by following the remains of your comrades-in-arms without road signs." Today, there is still no need for road signs, and we can find the way forward along the spirit of the Long March.
