🇨🇳 浴血广昌 Blood-Soaked Guangchang 2018 (English subtitled)

Blood-Soaked Guangchang (2018) is based on a true story, a historical war drama that depicts the Battle of Guangchang, a real and pivotal military engagement that took place in April 1934 during the Chinese Civil War. The Real History Behind the Movie - The Conflict: The film is set against the backdrop of the Fifth Encirclement Campaign launched by Chiang Kai-shek’s Nationalist (Kuomintang) forces against the Chinese Communist Party's Central Soviet Area. - The Strategic Importance: Guangchang County (located in Jiangxi Province) was known as the "northern gateway" to the Central Soviet Area. The Red Army dug in to defend the territory at all costs. - The Battle: The real Battle of Guangchang was exceptionally brutal and bloody. The outgunned Red Army suffered massive casualties (nearly 4,000 soldiers killed or wounded) over the course of a few weeks before being forced to retreat. This decisive defeat directly triggered the collapse of the Central Soviet Base, forcing the Red Army to abandon the region and begin their famous Long March to the west.
