The famous writer, translator Mr. Ye Junjian once said: "Hong'an, has the research value in the world". As the only county which was named after "red", Hong'an had made so many miracles: it not only founded the earliest Red Army in the Chinese modern revolutionary history - the first armed forces of Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, moreover, it was also the area whose population of participating in the Long March was the most and the participating rate was the highest in China. This small place was once famous for its peaceful place and comfortable life, its 480,000 heroic children were all soldiers and nearly 200,000 sacrificed in the revolutionary war."200 generals were from the same hometown", Hong'an had made another miracle -the density of general was the first in the world.
