Why did the Red Army cross the Xiangjiang River?

1934 10 More than 80,000 people of the Central Red Army withdrew from the Central Soviet Area, and after continuously breaking through three enemy blockade lines, they arrived at the border of Hunan and Guangxi in late June 1 1. At this time, Chiang Kai-shek mobilized 300,000 troops and laid the fourth blockade line called "Iron Triangle" in the east of Xiangjiang River (Xing 'an, quanzhou county and Guanyang counties), trying to destroy the Central Red Army here. Facing the danger of life and death, the Red Army soldiers fought bloody battles for 7 days and nights, and broke through at major crossing points such as Xing 'an Jieshou, quanzhou county Daping and Fenghuangzui at a heavy price. After that, the first and second columns of the Central Red Army, under the continuous cover of other legions, entered Huajiang Township and Jinshi Township in Xing 'an, struggling to climb the first peak since the Red Army's Long March-Laoshan Boundary, and then advanced to Yunguichuan.

Therefore, without the Red Army's success in breaking through the Xiangjiang River, there would be no magnificent revolutionary course of crossing the Chishui River, crossing the Jinsha River skillfully, flying over the Luding Bridge, climbing the snow-capped mountains and crossing the grassland, and even founding the country.
