Features: During the heroic and tragic Long March of 25,000 li, a group of special figures actively participated. Among them were the wives of central leaders, female cadres, and ordinary female soldiers. With their unique resilience and endurance, they fought with all their might, weaving heart-wrenching and moving stories with their deep love and affection. Hunger, disease, fierce battles, and death could not stop them from moving forward. This group of admirable and respected female heroes smiled and sang amidst the smoky battlefields, trudging along. Through arduous and in-depth interviews, and by reviewing historical records of the masters, the author of this book authentically recreates this little-known chapter of history. Many of the vibrant and formidable female Red Army soldiers of that time have already passed away, but the beautiful stories they left behind on the long journey still resonate deeply and move the hearts of people today.
