History
History
In early 1928 Zhu De's troops, survivors of the Nanchang Uprising, Little Long March and Battle of Shantou, found refuge here with the local warlord. Chen Yi was with him; neither dared reveal his identity at the time. It was from here that a rested and bolstered communist column marched to the Jinggangshan Mountains in April to join the hold-outs from another uprising.
