The spirit of the Long March

From October 1934 to October 1936, the CPC followed its own strategy by leading the main forces of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army on a trek of 25,000 li (12,500 km) from its bases in south China to the Party's enclave in northern Shaanxi Province. Known as the "Long March," this epic effort created a legacy of revolutionary idealism and started a new great march toward national independence and people's liberation.

This is a spirit of strong beliefs, of fearless resolution to surmount difficulties at any cost, of firm discipline, and of Party unity. 

長征精神

1934年10月至1936年10月的兩年時間里,中國共產黨領導下的中國工農紅軍主力,行程二萬五千里,完成了從長江下游各根據地向位于西北內陸的陜北革命根據地的戰略大轉移。紅軍長征書寫了戰爭史詩,譜寫了精神史詩,鑄就了長征精神,開啟了中國共產黨為實現民族獨立、人民解放而斗爭的新的偉大進軍。

長征精神,就是把全國人民和中華民族的根本利益看得高于一切,堅定革命的理想和信念,堅信正義事業必然勝利的精神;就是為了救國救民,不怕任何艱難險阻,不惜付出一切犧牲的精神;就是堅持獨立自主、實事求是,一切從實際出發的精神;就是顧全大局、嚴守紀律、緊密團結的精神;就是緊緊依靠人民群眾,同人民群眾生死相依、患難與共、艱苦奮斗的精神。長征精神是中國共產黨人及其領導的人民軍隊革命風范的生動反映,是中華民族自強不息的民族品格的集中展示,是以愛國主義為核心的民族精神的最高體現。
