The August 1 Nanchang Uprising marked the beginning of the Communist Party of China's independent leadership in armed struggle and the establishment of the people's army. So, when and where was the August 1 Army Day born?
Recently, during an interview in the red capital Ruijin, it was learned that on November 7, 1931, the First National Congress of the Chinese Soviet Republic was grandly held in Ruijin, Jiangxi, announcing the formal establishment of the temporary central government of the Chinese Soviet Republic, with Ruijin as its capital. According to the decision of the congress, the Central Revolutionary Military Commission of the Chinese Soviet Republic was established as the highest leadership and command body of the national Red Army.
By June 1933, the Red First Front Army in the Central Revolutionary Base had developed the First, Third, and Fifth Corps, and the Central Revolutionary Military Commission was in charge of the Red First Front Army, the Red Third Army, the Red Sixth Corps, the New Tenth Army of Fujian, Zhejiang, and Jiangxi, the Red Twenty-Fifth Army, the Red Twenty-Sixth Army, the Red Twenty-Eighth Army, the Red Twenty-Ninth Army, and the Red Fourth Front Army.
To forever commemorate the glorious day of the Nanchang Uprising, on June 30, 1933, the Central Revolutionary Military Commission issued an order in Ruijin to designate August 1 as the anniversary of the founding of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army. The order stated that the Nanchang Uprising "is the source of the brave Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, which is the main force in carrying out the national revolutionary war. In memory of the Nanchang uprising and the establishment of the Red Army, this committee decides that from 1933 onwards, August 1 will be the anniversary of the founding of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army." Subsequently, on July 1, the temporary central government of the Chinese Soviet Republic made a resolution regarding the "August 1" commemorative movement, stipulating that every August 1 would be the anniversary of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army. Thus, the "August 1" Army Day was established in Ruijin.
According to the Party History Office of the Ruijin Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China, from August 1927 to August 1933, the national Red Army centered around the Central Revolutionary Base had grown to over 100,000 people. The activities held on the first "August 1" anniversary were particularly grand, with songs and laughter everywhere in Ruijin, red flags flying, and drums and gongs sounding. On the lawn at Zhuma Hill on the outskirts of the city, waves of people surged towards the square, with a sea of heads, and long guns, spears, bird guns, and sabers gathered together, with the sounds of firecrackers and slogans rising and falling. The Central Workers' and Peasants' Theatre held a festive evening party that day, where Mao Zedong gave a report on the development history of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army; the Red First Front Army, the Red First Corps, and the Jiangxi Provincial Young Pioneers held "August 1" military sports meetings; the International Division of the Young Communist League and the Central Guard Division were successively announced to be established; and the groundbreaking ceremony for memorial buildings such as the Red Army Martyrs' Memorial Tower, the Red Army Martyrs' Memorial Pavilion, the Public Pavilion, and the Bosheng Fort was also held at the temporary central government square in Yeping. The entire Central Soviet Area was swept up in a wave of commemorating the "August 1" Army Day by doing their jobs well...
The smoke of war has long dissipated, yet the big character "August 1" that shocked the world forever flies on the banner of the people's army. People will not forget this red land of Ruijin, which nurtured the republic's power and gave birth to the "August 1" Army Day.
