This would be mildly controversial for Westerners. This is the 90th anniversary of the long march that lasted from 1934 to 1936. It is commonly stated that it ended in 1935, but for reasons I will not go into, it was in 1936. This was a strategic retreat from the KMT national containment forces under Chiang Kai-shek. In this video he makes it very clear that the army under Mao's command is required to respect the population. It is different from what people usually think. I definitely have more to say about all of this later.
