The carriage used to be very slow, the letters were far away, and life was too short. When my grandfather was born in the turbulent era of the last century, I occasionally heard him talk about the past and the past. I still remember what I loved most when I was a child was listening to my grandfather telling stories about him when he was young. One of the things that still remembered him the most was that when he was a child, the PLA passed by the village where we lived, and a PLA brought him an egg roll. Grandpa said that he still remembers the taste of the egg roll. While eating in the Black Elemental Coarse Grain Soup Pot that day, I accidentally mentioned it during the chat that the boss of the Black Elemental was also born in the army, so I started chatting. I talked about the fact that I had been to Yanting in , the Red Army and even had fierce battles, but I knew nothing. The boss of Black Elements suggested that it would be better to take advantage of the Party’s 95th birthday to do an activity of “Retracing the Red Army Road and remembering the revolutionary martyrs” so that more Yanting children can know that in this place, the Red Army sacrificed their lives and shed their blood for us, and at the same time fulfilled a wish that has been fulfilled for many years. We ate the coarse grain soup pot and couldn't help but burst into tears. We wondered how could the Red Army have these things to eat back then?
"In March 1935, the Red Fourth Front Army broke through the defense line of Jialing River, conquered Jiange , Yuanshan and then marched into northwest Sichuan. A small team of Red Army set out from the watershed and came to Yanting to Shiniu Temple in Yanting to reconnaissance the enemy situation. After defeating the local regiment training at Guotuling, the Soviet regime was established in Shiniu Temple. Liang Changyou and Wang Chaokun were elected as chairman, Fan Dengfeng and Meng Jiyuan were elected as land committee members, as well as other members and representatives, a total of 18 people were elected," a local insider in Shiniu Temple said to us.
In the Shiniu Temple Red Army Monument, the guardrail was broken due to its age. Without saying a word, the group found a stone not far away and repaired the guardrail. I don’t know how many Red Army soldiers buried their bones in that war and sacrificed their lives for the revolutionary cause. They have a common name - the Red Army! The long-standing monument leaves traces of time, as if telling us the glory of the past.
Then we arrived at the Red Army Pavilion in Wolong Mountain, where a thrilling battle occurred on March 27, 1935. When the Red Army team left Shiniu Temple and passed through Wolong Mountain at the junction of Chating Pavilion and Heiping, they encountered a sudden attack from the local militia and the puppet county brigade. The Red Army team fought fiercely with several times of the enemy for nearly two hours. During the battle, Company Commander Ma sacrificed heroically to cover the transfer of his comrades! After the founding of the People's Republic of China, in order to commemorate this battle and commemorate the revolutionary martyrs, the people of Chating Township spontaneously raised funds to establish a Red Army Memorial Pavilion on the battlefield site on the top of Wolong Mountain.
Remember the past and see the beautiful scenery and scenery of the present. When the Red Army crossed the river northward and came to Shiniu Temple, Tea Pavilion and other places. Although the time was short, it carried out many arduous struggles. It aroused the awakening of the Yanting people, inspired the fighting spirit of the people, and severely attacked the arrogant arrogance of the Yanting reactionaries. The Red Army left a deep impression on the people of Yanting and sowed the spark of revolution.
After going down the mountain from the Red Army Pavilion, our group became silent. Maybe everyone was thinking about something. Once upon a time, those people were walking on that road, and they took themselves very seriously and the people very seriously. There are not many people fighting for faith. I want to say thank you to them and it is just a comfort to come. What can we do? I think I can only contribute my own strength to socialist construction!
