About This Novel
When the Red Army's West Route Army was defeated in the Hexi Corridor, a female military battalion that was responsible for mobilization, rescue, and cover before the entire army was annihilated finally collapsed under the iron heel of the brutal horse bandits. Red Army soldiers such as Xia Manyue, Hong Yunshu, Chen Qiuer, and Ding Guyu persisted in their beliefs in adversity, loved their ideals, and fought until the last moment. The writer Li Jing used historical facts as material to create fictional novels, and wrote the most tragic and desolate tunes in the history of the Chinese revolution. The focus was on female soldiers under special circumstances. Their love, loyalty, reproduction, and death all appeared and disappeared in a gloomy and quiet atmosphere... The supplementary narrations that appeared as the memories of survivors partially restored the secrets and strangeness of historical events.
