From 1935 to 1936, three main forces of the Red Army (the 1st, 2nd, and 4th fronts of the Red Army) conducted military operations for one year and eight months in the territory of Sichuan Province. Skillful crossing of the Jinshajiang River, forcing the Dadukhe River, rapid capture of the Luding Bridge, overcoming snowy mountains and swampy meadows… Soldiers and commanders of the Red Army, having overcome countless hardships and dangers, ultimately advanced victoriously to the north.

Ninety years flew by in an instant, generation after generation continued the work of their predecessors. Today, Sichuan province has transformed into a dynamically developing region with a flourishing economy and a constantly renewing appearance.
