Features: The literary creation of war-themed works reached unprecedented prosperity after the 1950s. Since the People's Republic of China was established through decades of war, "power grows out of the barrel of a gun" became an important part of promoting the modern revolutionary history after 1949, and heroes on horseback became the pride of the era. The newly established regime naturally demanded that literature serve politics, requiring writers to reflect the modern war history of China from the perspective of the Communist Party of China, and to promote and popularize the historical knowledge of the new regime's formation and establishment through artistic images. Conquering the Central Plains portrays a series of successful models, depicting the spiritual demeanor of our military commanders and soldiers, the internal relationships within the units, and the ties between the army and the people, thereby warmly presenting to people that we are all members of this People's Army, nurtured and grown by the Party and the people. It is these very things that connect our hearts and make us feel like friends at first sight!
