Thunder Over Southeastern Yunnan: The Funing Anti-Chiang Guerrilla Column

Dian Southeast: Thunder Over Funing begins with the revolutionary struggle in the Funing region of southeastern Yunnan in 1948 and continues through the founding of New China. It offers a sweeping portrayal of the First Funing Anti-Chiang Column, from its first sparks to its growth into a blazing movement, and its eventual merger with the nationwide liberation struggle. Rooted in the mountainous setting of southeastern Yunnan, where many ethnic groups live side by side, the story weaves together the destinies of the Zhuang, Miao, Han, and other peoples, centering on the column’s founding, battles, and growth.
