At the height of summer in Gannan, the trees are dark and the heatwave is fierce.

Walking into the Central Red Army's Long March departure memorial, a replica calendar attracted soldiers from a unit of the air force in the eastern theater.

It was the "Action Schedule for the Field Army from October 10 to 20" issued by the Central and Eastern Military Commission in Ruijin, which was the first document to deploy the Red Army's Long March operation, and a systematic and comprehensive strategic transfer plan.

"The table is arranged in an orderly way and the tasks of each day and each unit are so clearly planned." Li Wenfeng, Second Class of Staff of the Department, walked along the table, first horizontally and then vertically, studying the detailed time nodes and task divisions, and could not help but feel sadness.

Behind the table are dark nights -

In the late autumn of 1934, the fifth anti-siege was defeated, and the enemy closed down the Soviet district, leaving tens of thousands of Red Army soldiers under siege. At a time when the situation was dangerous, the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China calmly assessed the fighting situation, coordinated the forces of the 7th Route, and carefully laid out a coherent and complete plan for the transfer of troops.

Take the example of the Red Ninth Army Corps alone, and the action is clearly planned, scientific, and organized: on the eve of the transfer, the Red Army did not rush to evacuate its camps, but instead cleared the hazards on the ground, solidified its positions, conducted regular military and political training, and firmly secured its foundations behind the rear. Since 11 October, the troop ladder has been consolidated and the troops have been moving in an orderly manner towards the established areas of assembly; On the 14th, the preparations for crossing the river were fully completed, including the preparation of materials, the assembly of personnel, and the verification of readiness; Late at night on the 17th, using the nightlight to hide across the river, he quietly broke through the enemy blockade line. After the siege, they continued to send troops forward to scout, strike and contain, and cover the enemy's march with side wings, creating conditions for the central main force to advance deeper and jump out of the siege circle.

The thin schedule carries with it the scheduling of thousands of troops and the consideration of life and death. For a moment, the soldiers on the scene were silent, but their hearts were filled with emotions.

"The tables are well organized and the responsibilities are clear, which fully demonstrates that the Red Army has never forgotten to draw up detailed and detailed plans for its march, despite the tense times and critical conditions." Sergeant Xie Wan Song analyzed that the operational schedule was disciplined, standardized and disciplined, that the text, although concise, was very specific, and that the notes provided detailed instructions on advance formations and battle dividing lines. At the same time, it does not restrict the vitality of the front line, and troops can independently diagnose and deal with the enemy situation in the face, and use the standby gap to strengthen their weaknesses and gather training.

"Organization and planning are important guarantees of marching. This experience is distilled in the fire of war and bubbled in the blood." With that in mind, Teng Yue, the staff officer in the training department, recalled the detours the unit had taken in previous training sessions.

Previously, in preparation for the war supervisory evaluation, some grassroots units broke the established group training plan and resumed training overtime, without distinguishing between the capability base of soldiers and the pressure of duty. While it may seem that the training time has increased and the training intensity has increased, the serious subjects have not been studied in depth and the basic abilities have not been steadily improved. Even some soldiers are long-term fatigued to participate in training, which wears away the enthusiasm for independent training.

"Our ancestors were scientifically integrated in life-and-death situations, and we must not be blindly advanced. We must coordinate with precision and remain flexible." During the exchange, everyone reached a consensus that this schedule shows not only the route of the march, but also contains a realistic and scientific and comprehensive approach to the management of the military. In today's training, it is necessary to formulate training content and set training standards at a hierarchical level, and at the same time, establish dynamic training transfer, peak training and daily refresher mechanisms in response to the fact that sudden tasks such as duty, security, and training stationing are likely to disrupt the training progress.
