[Continue the spirit of the Long March and forge ahead on the journey of rejuvenation] Hubei: The spirit of the Long March shines in Jingchu and forges a new fulcrum for forge ahead

CCTV News Client News (News Network): In the magnificent heroic epic of the Long March, many Red Army teams from Hubei made immortal contributions to the victory of the Long March. For 90 years, the fire has been passed down from generation to generation, and the sons and daughters of Jingchu have continued the spirit of the great Long March, worked hard and forged ahead, and worked hard to write a new chapter in the modernization of Hubei with Chinese style.

In September 1934, the 25th Red Army assembled in Taojiahe, Yingshan County, Huanggang, Hubei, and completed training here, laying the foundation for subsequent strategic shifts and the Long March. At the end of October 1934, the 25th Red Army fought with the enemy at Niubeijigu Mountain in Taojiahe. This unit, with an average age of less than 18 years old, fought bravely and resisted successive attacks from aircraft and artillery with their flesh and blood. After the Battle of Niu Bei Spine, local fellow villagers risked their lives to take the wounded Red Army soldiers home and treated them with local Chinese herbal medicine.

The Chinese medicinal materials used to treat wounded Red Army soldiers in the mountains have now become a "green treasure trove" for villagers to increase their income and become rich. In recent years, Yingshan County has vigorously developed the traditional Chinese medicinal materials industry relying on the unique ecological endowments of the Dabie Mountains. At present, the county's traditional Chinese medicinal materials planting area is about 300,000 acres, which has led to a stable increase in income for more than 50,000 people in mountainous areas.

Keep pace with the new journey. During the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, Hubei will take the overall goal of accelerating the establishment of an important strategic pivot for the rise of the central region, optimize and upgrade traditional industries such as automobiles, chemicals, and steel, cultivate and expand emerging industries such as optoelectronic information, biomedicine, and high-end medical equipment, proactively deploy future industries such as embodied intelligence and 6G, and accelerate the construction of a modern industrial system that reflects Hubei's advantages.
