⛰[Pingxiang Autumn Harvest Uprising Square: A "Giant Open-Air PowerPoint" That Would Make History Teachers Excited]
Attention, visitors! What you see before you is not an ordinary square dancing stage, but a "revolutionary theme park" with its own background music—the tiles here might know more history than your family tree!
Pingxiang Autumn Harvest Uprising Square covers 247 mu and has become a new landmark in Pingxiang. What's the concept of 247 mu? It's equivalent to 230 standard basketball courts, but here, we don't play basketball, we play "historical quests"! The 30.9-meter-high monument in the center (coinciding with the September 1927 uprising) is not an ordinary lamppost—it's the most hardcore "Wi-Fi tower" in Jiangxi, specifically receiving spiritual signals from revolutionary martyrs.
Speaking of the Autumn Harvest Uprising, it was a significant armed uprising that took place in September 1927 on the Hunan-Jiangxi border (Changsha, Xiangtan, Ningxiang, Liling, Liuyang, Pingjiang, Yueyang, and Anyuan in Hunan Province, and Xiushui, Tonggu, Pingxiang, etc. in Jiangxi Province). Following the Nanchang Uprising, it was another major revolutionary action personally led by Comrade Mao Zedong. This uprising marked a significant chapter in the development of the Chinese revolution.
Here's the highlight: In September 1927, after the Autumn Harvest Uprising began, Mao Zedong was detained by local militia while traveling from Anyuan in Pingxiang to Tonggu. With wit and courage, Mao Zedong safely escaped at Yuexingwan in Tonggu, leaving behind a legendary story of "one foot in two provinces, four silver coins determining the universe." Tonggu County also became a blessed land where the great leader "turned bad luck into good fortune."
Chairman Mao played a real-life escape game in Pingxiang. When detained, he calmly took out a few silver coins (the legendary "pay-to-win items") and performed the divine maneuver of "four coins determining the universe." If this experience were made into a movie, it should be called "Escape from Tonggu: My Regiment Commander, My Silver Coins."
Friendly reminders:
1️⃣ The ground temperature in the square can fry an egg in summer, but don't worry—this is the natural conduction of revolutionary passion.
2️⃣ Don't be surprised to see uncles and aunties dancing to "The Most Dazzling National Style." They might be recreating the uprising route with square dancing.
3️⃣ The best pose for taking photos at the monument: Put one hand on your hip in a "pointing at the country" gesture, and caption your WeChat Moments post with "Does the Autumn Harvest Uprising need people? Waiting online."
Finally, a friendly reminder: Please manage your expressions during your visit, as every lamppost has a hidden camera—not for surveillance, but for the gaze of history! 🌝
(Visitors who have completed their tour generally report: Their legs don't ache, their backs don't hurt, and they even have more energy for work—could this be the legendary "red buff"?)
