How many people were sacrificed on the Long March? Finally, someone sorted it out, and after reading it, it was up to knowledge.
"Do you know how many people were sacrificed on the Long March?" My friend Xiao Li suddenly asked me, with a hint of heaviness in his tone.
"I only know that the Long March was difficult, but I really don't know exactly how many people were sacrificed." I shook my head, curious about the question.
"Someone just sorted it out, and the data is amazing." Xiao Li took out his mobile phone, flipped out an article and handed it to me.
I took my phone and read it carefully. The article records in detail the hardships and hardships of the Long March, as well as the dangers and obstacles faced by the Red Army soldiers. Starting from Jiangxi, through snow-capped mountains and meadows, after countless battles, and finally arrived at the base area in northern Shaanxi. What struck me the most was that there were about 86,000 people at the beginning of the Long March, and only about 30,000 remained when they arrived in northern Shaanxi. In other words, in the two-year journey, as many as 56,000 people died and went missing.
After reading the article, my mood could not be calmed for a long time. At that moment, I felt as if I had personally experienced that period of history and felt the tremendous sacrifices made by those young Red Army soldiers for their ideals and beliefs.
When I got home, the story of the Long March kept echoing in my mind. I decided to dig deeper into this history, so I found a few books on the Long March and began to read them systematically.
In the process of reading, I learned that the Long March was not only a military operation, but also a great journey that tested the will and faith of mankind. The Red Army soldiers overcame unimaginable difficulties: cold, hunger, disease, encirclement and interception by enemy troops, etc. With their blood and lives, they have written a magnificent chapter in history.
Once, I talked to my father about the Long March. He was a soldier in his youth and knows a lot about this history.
"Dad, so many people were sacrificed on the Long March, how did they persevere?" I asked.
"Faith." "They believe they are fighting for a great cause," the father said in a deep voice. Even in the face of death, he does not flinch. ”
"So how can we honor these heroes now?" I continued to ask.
"The best commemoration is to remember history and never forget the original intention." The father replied.
Listening to my father's words strengthened my convictions. Every person who sacrifices his or her ideals and beliefs deserves our memory and admiration. The Long March is not only a piece of history, but also our spiritual wealth.
That night, I wrote this sentence in my notebook: "On the Long March, it is not only the lives of the soldiers who are sacrificed, but also a fearless spirit. This spirit will always inspire us to move forward. ”
Finally, someone sorted out the number of people who died on the Long March, and after reading it, they increased their knowledge. Through this in-depth understanding, I not only gained a deeper understanding of the Long March, but also planted a seed of admiration and gratitude in my heart. This history will forever be etched in my heart and inspire me to be brave and brave in my own path.
