This story is purely fictitious. It describes the transformation process and operation process of the Central Anhui base area and the Wanjiang, Jiangnan and other anti-Japanese forces with the 7th Division of the New Fourth Army as the background after the Wannan Incident during the Anti-Japanese War. It changed from a purely military operation in the past to an economic logistics and military intelligence center of the New Fourth Army and a vivid picture of its operation.
It focuses on telling the story of how the Chinese Communist Party led the New Fourth Army and other anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians in the Wanjiang River Basin, the richest and most fertile land of China at the time, and how it produced fruitful results on the two fronts of economy and intelligence, as well as how it weakened and consumed a large amount of the enemy's effective strength through trade wars and financial wars.
