"Cangcang forest and eight gui, I am here in southern Hunan. Jiang Zuo Qingluo belt, mountains like jade hairpins." After a lapse of four years, General Secretary Xi Jinping went to Guangxi again for inspection.

On this land, there is his affectionate concern.

On the first day of the inspection, he focused on three things.

These things happened not only in the riversides and villages in northwestern Guangxi, but also related to the whole of China; they happened at a special time and also outlined the grand context of national rejuvenation.

Looking back at a battle: the bloody battle against Xiangjiang, the history of Chuifang

  On the morning of April 25, Xi Jinping first came to Caiwan Town, Quanzhou County, Guilin City to inspect the Red Army Long March Xiangjiang Battle Memorial Park.

  The Battle of Xiangjiang, a life-and-death battle during the Long March of the Red Army.

From November 27 to December 1, 1934, the Central Red Army launched a desperate battle with the Kuomintang army on the banks of the Xiangjiang River in northwestern Guangxi, breaking through the fourth blockade of the enemy’s heavily fortified enemy, and shattering the plan to encircle and annihilate the Central Red Army east of the Xiangjiang River. .

However, the Central Red Army suffered heavy losses, sharply dropping from 86,000 at the time of the Long March to more than 30,000.

  General Secretary Xi Jinping has always been concerned about the revolutionary martyrs who died in the Xiangjiang Battle, and clearly requested that the martyrs' remains should be collected and protected, and the memorial facilities should be planned and constructed.

In September 2019, the Red Army’s Long March Xiangjiang Battle Memorial Park was officially completed, which mainly included the memorial forest area and memorial hall.

The remains of Red Army martyrs from the Xiangjiang Battle have been excavated over the years and buried in the memorial forest area.

  The Battle of Xiangjiang, as the most tragic scene of the Great Long March, has always been engraved in Xi Jinping's heart.

  On October 31, 2014, he said emotionally at the site of the Gutian Conference: “When the Long March set out, the children of Western Fujian were actively participating in the Red Army. There were more than 20,000 Western Fujian children in the Red Army. The Red 34 Division, who served as the general guard of the Central Red Army, More than 6,000 people were mainly children from western Fujian, and almost all of the division died in the first battle of Xiangjiang."

  At the National Congress of the People's Republic of China in 2019, the General Secretary twice mentioned a past event: An old Red Army led the Minxi children in a bloody battle against the Xiangjiang River, and many comrades died.

The old Red Army said that after death, he would sleep with his comrades in arms.

The general secretary said, "This feeling is in my heart" and "The Republic is red, and this color cannot be downplayed."

This is his lofty tribute and affectionate look back on the Long March Road in the new era.

Advancing a strategy: rural revitalization, benefiting the people

  Maozhushan Village is located in the west of Quanzhou County, and is in Caiwan Town with the Red Army Long March Xiangjiang Battle Memorial Park.

This is a natural village with only 46 households and 156 people, and the entire village has a radius of 0.6 square kilometers.

  In the morning, General Secretary Xi Jinping came to Maozhushan Village to investigate the promotion of rural revitalization and grassroots governance.

Mozhushan Village is named after the moso bamboo that has grown for generations, but the most famous is the newly developed grape industry.

At present, the village's grape industry base has grown to more than 320 acres, and it has radiated the surrounding farmers to plant nearly 3,000 acres of grapes.

  In recent years, the average annual output of grapes in Maozhushan Village has reached over 1 million catties, and the per capita annual income is 30,000 yuan.

The "green grape" has become the "green bank" here.

The prosperity of the industry has led to the construction of beautiful villages. Over the years, 24 beautiful residential buildings with characteristics of northern Guangxi have been built in the village.

  Wang Deli, a "post-80s" villager, told The News Eye that their husband and wife planted 12 acres of grapes in the village and earned more than 100,000 yuan last year.

Both daughters are in elementary school in the town, and the wall of awards is the most practical example of happiness.

  In December last year, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out at the Central Rural Work Conference that after the victory in poverty alleviation, rural revitalization must be promoted in an all-round way. This is a historic shift in the focus of the work on agriculture, rural areas and farmers.

  From going to Huawu Village in Guizhou to see the characteristic Miao embroidery industry in February this year, to seeing the tea industry in Wuyishan, Fujian in March, to the snack industry in Shaxian County, and to the grape growing industry in Maozhushan Village during this Guangxi inspection, the general secretary has always been concerned. This is a major event to cultivate characteristic and advantageous industries.

The reason he said is: to revitalize the countryside, the key is to choose industries that enrich the people according to local conditions.

Test a result: Govern the Lijiang River, sustainable beauty

  On the afternoon of the 25th, Xi Jinping came to the Yangshuo section of the Lijiang River to learn about the comprehensive management and ecological protection of the Lijiang River basin.

  Xi Jinping once talked about his "Lijiang complex": When he was a teenager, he came to Guilin, where the landscape is the best in the world, and he was swimming with a few classmates in the Lijiang River. The landscape of the Lijiang River left a deep impression on him.

  The picturesque Li River was once broken into peace.

There are many places for fish farming in boats and cages along the river, and waste is frequently discharged from quarries and old sugar factories. The ecology of the Lijiang River needs to be rescued urgently.

The general secretary pointed out decisively, “We must do our best to protect the landscape of Guilin and continue to do a good job in the restoration and management of the local ecological environment, especially the ecological protection of the Lijiang River Basin, so that this beautiful landscape on earth will be preserved forever.”

  In recent years, Guilin City has comprehensively cleaned up and rectified illegal sand mining and fish farming in cages and other ecological damage, and implemented projects such as water replenishment and sewage treatment of the Lijiang River.

Today, the forest coverage rate of the Lijiang River Basin exceeds 80%, and the water quality of the main stream maintains the national level II water quality standard for surface water throughout the year, achieving "green hills, clear waters, and fresh air".

  The general secretary's revisit to the Lijiang River this time can be said to be a staged "acceptance" of the "achievements" of the Lijiang River governance.

  During an inspection in Guangxi in 2017, Xi Jinping inspected the Mangrove Ecological Reserve and the Nakao River Wetland Park.

He said that

Guangxi's ecological advantage is not exchanged

.

This sentence shows that he attaches great importance to ecological protection.

Just three days before this Guangxi inspection, when attending the leaders’ climate summit, Xi Jinping proposed for the first time to jointly build a community of human and natural life, which is the “Chinese plan” for global environmental governance.

  The trip to Guangxi was the fifth domestic inspection by General Secretary Xi Jinping this year.

The beginning of the "14th Five-Year Plan" is the critical time.

From the enlightenment of the battle history of the Xiangjiang River, the promotion of the strategy of rural revitalization, to the consolidation of the ecological protection, through the first day of Guangxi inspection, you can understand the "big man of the country" in contemporary China, and you can perceive the struggle ambition of the Communists .
