In May and November 1930, the Red Seventh Army passed through Damiao Mountain twice to spread Marxism-Leninism to the people of all nationalities, publicize the policies and propositions of the Communist Party of China, and build bridges and leave warm clothes for the masses...... The spark of revolution was sown along the way.

In June 1937, the Rongxian branch of the Communist Party of China was formally established in Beidi Building (now Rongshui Middle School) in Rongle Town, and the Rongxian (now Rongshui and Rong'an County) revolutionaries under the leadership of the Communist Party of China created a series of party organizations and established a series of revolutionary armed teams to protect the land of Miao Township......
Many years later, these red stories familiar to the people of Miao Township were engraved on the red wall of the site where Rongshui once carried out the revolution, and were passed on by word of mouth in the explanations of several generations of docents.

"When I was a child, I listened to the story of the Red Seventh Army, and my heart was full of awe and emotion, their spirit inspired the people of the three defenses and enriched our spiritual and cultural heritage, and now I want to tell this story even more." Wei Qiaowen, the docent of the Red Seventh Army Memorial Hall in Sanfang Town, has been exposed to it since he was a child, and his biggest hope is that more people can join the explanation team to tell, remember, and publicize the story of the Red Seventh Army in the Three Defenses well.

In 2021, the Sanfang Community of Sanfang Town was selected by the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee and the Ministry of Finance as the "Red Beautiful Pilot Village for Organizational Revitalization" and received a reward of 4 million yuan. With the upgrading of infrastructure hardware, the red heritage of Sanfang Town has been further deepened, and the red dream of Rongshui Rural Revitalization has been ignited.

"We will organically integrate the party's red education with rural revitalization, launch the brand of the old revolutionary area, make Sanfang Town the most commemorative red check-in point in the course of the Red Seventh Army crossing Miao Mountain, let the people in the old revolutionary area better learn and inherit the revolutionary spirit, and comprehensively promote the integrated development of red culture and tourism and industry in the old revolutionary area." How to combine red resources and tourism, Wei Yuance, deputy mayor of the People's Government of Sanfang Town, has already planned.

In addition to Sanfang Town, the revolutionary spark of the Red Seventh Army also brought the red resources of Rongdi Village, Sirong Township. Every major festival such as the National Day, the Red Seventh Army in Rongdi Village will usher in the peak of visits. Pan Yifu, secretary and director of the general party branch of the post-80s village, and Liao Xuqian, a member of the post-90s village work team, are the docents in the museum.

Pan Yifu said: "I hope that our next generation can have a deeper understanding of the deeds of the Red Seventh Army in those years of dedication and heroic sacrifice for the revolution, so that these revolutionary spirits can be passed on from generation to generation." ”
Liao Xuqian also said: "I hope that everyone can follow my explanation to understand the deep feelings between the Red Seventh Army and the people of Damiaoshan, and remember the revolutionary spirit and the spirit of struggle."

It is precisely because of the inheritance of the red spirit that since 2015, Rongshui has applied for special funds, and with the help of Yuegui funds, it has increased its efforts to excavate and protect the red sites, and has successively repaired and built the Liyuyan Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall, the Red Seventh Army Memorial Hall in Sanfang Town, and the Red Seventh Army in Rongdi Village Guomiao Mountain Exhibition Hall, etc., and will also integrate the development of red resources and tourism, build and explore red education boutique tourism routes, and successfully create 1 Guangxi red tourism key village and 4 municipal party history education bases. Every year, about 100,000 people are attracted to Rongshui to carry out red tourism research, so that the red resources of Rongshui are completely "lived".

The long river of time is flowing slowly, and the road of inheritance of red stories is also being carried forward from generation to generation.
The Liyuyan Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall in Xinguo Village, Rongshui Town, is also very famous, and the 93-year-old docent in the museum, Cao Yi, as a witness, explained that the explanation was even more rich and touching. "We have revolutionary stories that dare to fight against the enemy, and I want to keep telling the story, and I hope to pass on the fine traditions of our ancestors in Liyuyan from generation to generation."

"I see the meaning and value of the existence of a narrator from Cao Lao, and I also hope to take over this baton, be a good microphone, tell the red story with heart and affection, so that the red gene can be passed on from generation to generation." Talking about the construction of Cao Yi and Liyuyan Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall, what comes to the mind of 35-year-old Ye Ziwen is the figure of an old man who insists on explaining regardless of the cold and heat, his shirt is wet and wet.

Influenced by his mother, 10-year-old Shi Yuye often visited the memorial hall and became a red scarf docent, not only telling stories in meltwater, but also telling stories out of meltwater.

In the explanation of several generations of commentators, the touching red story and the touching red history of the Rongshui Revolutionary Base Area vividly surfaced in front of him, which deeply touched the heart of Qin Xuxiang, a staff officer of the Military Section of the County People's Armed Forces Department, who had visited and studied the revolutionary site many times. "In the past, I wanted to be able to charge forward with my ancestors. Nowadays, I often listen to and watch, and I can get different energy every time, so that I can better lead the new recruits, and at the same time, I hope to protect my current life. ”

Red is the background color of meltwater. The red spirit has cultivated the original intention of Rongshui people. After the implementation of the Regulations on the Protection and Inheritance of Red Resources in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on October 1, 2022, Rongshui began to organize the training of professional red story explainers. Nowadays, Rongshui is relying on the abundant red resources to build the red countryside into a beautiful village suitable for living, working and traveling.
