The Fourth Red Regiment ran for 240 miles day and night. What was the difficulty?
First, they moved forward on foot.
They don't have any means of transportation, not even bicycles, and rely on two soles of their feet to run.
Second, their path forward is not smooth.
There were several groups of enemies blocking the entire journey, and they had to defeat these enemies before they could move forward. In other words, they were not simply moving forward, but had to fight and move without losing time.
Third, the terrain is not good.
During the process of advancement, they had to walk on rugged mountain roads. This consumes far more energy than a flat road and also affects the speed of advancement.
Fourth, the equipment carried by the Fourth Red Regiment was very heavy and they were not traveling lightly.
The entire Fourth Red Regiment carried a total of more than 100 light and heavy machine guns, plus weapons and ammunition. This burden was a great test for the march.
Why carry so many light and heavy machine guns?
It's the same as crossing the Dadu River by force.
If you want to successfully seize the Luding Bridge, you must use powerful firepower to suppress the defending enemy forces.
The four extremely unfavorable conditions did not make the Red Army soldiers complain and feel tired, nor did they hinder their attack.
In the passionate melody, under the overlooking view of the drone lens, the four red groups surged forward with strong winds, and nothing could stop their progress.
The audience just thought this part was too enjoyable, but the professionals all had their eyes wide open and were puzzled.
How was this footage shot?
This is a real scene, not a special effect.
As professional film and television workers, they can tell at a glance whether a shot is a special effect or a real scene.
But precisely because I saw it, the shock was even stronger.
According to normal understanding, such high-altitude shots are usually shot from an airplane.
But look at the height of the camera and the mountains on both sides. Not to mention fixed-wing aircraft, not even helicopters can do it.
It is impossible to mount a ropeway camera so high and have the lens cover such a distance.
Many people are keenly aware that Starlight must have adopted some new technology.
This is really surprising.
When did Chinese films actually have completely leading photography technology?
Xiao Qian never hesitated to humiliate the remaining forces that were defeated on the island.
When the Fourth Red Regiment was rushing forward, the camera turned to show Chang Kaishen.
After receiving the report from his subordinates, he asked.
"Where is Xue Yue?"
Where is Xue Yue?
He is crossing the river.
He led several columns under his command to cross the Jinsha River.
From May 9th, it took until May 23rd to completely cross the Jinsha River.
Would you rather cross the sea here?
Watching the banter in the movie, the audience laughed and expressed ridicule and contempt for a certain bad party.
Think this is enough?
No, Xiao Qian has something worse to lose.
He also plastered the military order given by Chang Kaishen to Xue Yue on the screen, and also had Zhang Guoli do the voice-over.
[When our army advances from Xichang, each unit should follow the marching instructions for suppressing bandits and must advance in stages. For example, on the first day, the first column first went from Xichang to Lizhou. On the next day, it still temporarily stayed in place to build blockhouses to cover its second column.
The column will advance towards Lugu on the second day. When the second column reaches Lugu, it will be temporarily stationed in Lugu on the third day to build blockhouses, and then the first column or other columns will advance towards Mianning.
On the day when our Mianning troops arrive at their destination, we will order the troops stationed in Lizhou or Lugu to advance towards Mianshan. However, the fortresses built in Lizhou and Lugu must still be defended by follow-up or designated garrison troops.
When the army is moving forward, it is important to be careful about its deployment of cover, search, and vigilance, and not to violate the basic principles of suppressing bandits.]
The head of a country sends such a message to the frontline generals, giving step-by-step instructions on how to march and form formations...
It's even more outrageous than Zhao Kuangyin releasing formation diagrams to the generals.
Especially in the dialect specially simulated by teacher Zhang Guoli
With the blessing, it was full of humor. The audience laughed loudly and exercised their abdominal muscles more than going to the gym.
Heaven is about to entrust this person with a great responsibility, and he must first work hard on his will, strain his muscles and bones, and hone himself even more.
The same goes for the Red Fourth Regiment.
An attack that advances two hundred and forty miles in a day and night is already an extremely difficult task. God also joined in the fun, and strong winds mixed with violent storms became another test to thwart the Fourth Red Regiment.
Military orders are overwhelming, and the Fourth Red Regiment doesn't care about them at all.
Braving the wind and rain, the speed did not slow down, truly explaining what it means that the Red Army is not afraid of difficulties in expeditions.
In the heavy rain, the sky turned dark, but the Red Army was still advancing.
Suddenly, a fire dragon appeared on the other side of the river.
The only ones who can march openly and openly in such an environment with torches are the enemy troops.
Political Commissar Yang had an idea and asked the soldiers to use torches.
For a time, the two fire dragons were racing side by side across the Dadu River, which was more than 100 meters apart, which was a spectacular scene.
The enemy troops on the other side discovered the situation and asked each other across the river. The Red Army soldiers pretended to be enemies, but they were not discovered.
In the rainy night, the two armies advanced hand in hand, but the audience was worried. If this continues, when the Red Army rushes to Luding Bridge, won't the enemy's reinforcements also arrive?
The audience obviously underestimated the willpower of our Red Army soldiers and overestimated the enemy's level.
As they walked, the fire dragon on the left bank continued to speed up, but the fire dragon on the right bank began to draw circles in place.
This difference is particularly obvious under high-altitude cameras.
In a completely dark environment, the characters' shapes could not be seen at all. Only the fire dragon was clearly visible on the screen, but it did not reduce the excitement at all.
The fire dragon on the right bank that the audience saw rotated inward like a lollipop, with a long tail trailing behind it.
When the Red Army soldiers asked, the enemy's answer was that their time was up and they needed to rest.
Seeing this scene, the audience all smiled.
If you are a reactionary like this, who will lose if you don’t lose?
At dawn, the rain stopped, and the Fourth Red Regiment finally arrived at the Luding Bridge within the stipulated time.
When Captain Huang shouted the order to "stop advancing", God knows the audience was even more excited than the soldiers in the movie. The sea of applause for a moment represented the audience's truest state of mind.
But when the camera showed the Luding Bridge, everyone took a breath.
In order to prevent the Red Army from crossing the river, the enemy had removed all the wooden planks on the bridge, leaving only thirteen iron cables. Below was the rolling Dadu River.
Even though they already knew the history, the audience was still confused.
How did this happen?
Soon, the heroic Fourth Red Regiment told the audience what the invincible people's army is.
After a short period of repair, the Fourth Red Regiment began the battle at four o'clock in the afternoon.
More than a hundred light and heavy machine guns were lined up on the river bank, and the fierce firepower made it impossible for the enemy to raise their heads. Not only that, the Red Army's firepower also blocked the enemy's reinforcement channels from both sides.
Under the cover of powerful firepower, twenty-two courageous men climbed up the iron rope, ignoring the enemy's guns and the raging river below. They had only one belief, which was to fight through and open a path for the entire army to advance.
With the background music of "March of Steel Torrent", this picture is extremely shocking.
Behind the twenty-two warriors was a company of Red Army soldiers. Their task was to lay wooden planks and turn the chasm into a thoroughfare again.
Behind them is another company. When the bridgehead on the other side is captured, they will be the first wave of attacking troops.
The defenders thought that there would be no problem in defending such a natural danger. However, the bravery of the Red Army exceeded their imagination and frightened their courage.
The enemy commander urgently asked for help from the brigade commander, but the brigade commander's headquarters was also being attacked by other units of the Red Army and he had no time to take care of himself.
The enemy commander had a premonition of danger from the fierce sound of gunfire from the brigade commander's side on the phone.
How did he do it?
He handed over the defensive task to one of his company commanders, and then ran away with the other troops.
The company commander was indeed a loyal subordinate. He followed suit and handed over the defensive task to a squad leader. The company commander himself hid in Luding City, waiting for the battle to unfold.
If he can hold it, it is his credit; if he cannot hold it, it will be easier for him to run.
The national army is like this, can they hold it?
The enemy troops guarding the bridge saw the Red Army warriors about to rush over. Knowing that the situation was over, they simply set fire to the obstacles at the bridge and fled one after another.
The raging fire could not stop my heroic commanders and soldiers. The twenty-two warriors rushed directly through the flames, opening the door to victory for the entire army.
The movie has come to an end, and the following parts are not described in detail.
Accompanied by the majestic shouts of killing like mountains and seas, the Red Army finally broke out of the siege.
The sand table that had caused astonishment before appeared again, and the Red Army's advance route evolved into a red arrow on the sand table.
The arrow headed all the way north, and finally came to a snow-capped mountain.
Climbing snow-capped mountains and crossing grasslands are many people’s most profound impressions of the 25,000-mile Long March.
Now, after conquering the unruly Dadu River, the Red Army is about to conquer this majestic area that has never been visited by humans in ancient times.
The Xiangjiang River cannot stop their progress, the Chishui River cannot stop their progress, the Jinsha River cannot stop their progress, the Dadu River cannot stop their progress, and the same is true for the following snow-capped mountains!
When the screen turned black and the list of main creators appeared one after another, all the audiences in the countless screening halls stood up enthusiastically and gave the most heart-pounding applause.
Countless people's eyes filled with tears, and they had completely different feelings about the present and future of the motherland.
The future of the motherland will be better, and everyone has unprecedented self-confidence at this moment.
