Introduction to the former meeting place of the Seventh Red Army: At the end of March 1930, about 3,000 people from the first and second columns of the Seventh Army of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army implemented strategic transfers under the leadership of Commander-in-Chief Li Mingduan and Army Commander Zhang Yunyi. The troops started from the Donglan and Fengshan areas of Guangxi, passed through Hechi, captured Huaiyuan Town, and advanced towards Sien (today's Huanjiang Maonan Autonomous County). On the way, the Seventh Red Army was suddenly attacked by the Kuomintang army. Due to the large number of enemies and the huge disparity in strength, Commander Zhang ordered the withdrawal of the struggle. The first column withdrew to the north, and the military headquarters and the second column withdrew to the west. In mid-to-late April, the first and second columns of the Seventh Red Army met in Banzhai Village, Dongtang Township, Libo.
