History

After the convergence in Dawei, a meeting was held in Lianhekou to address the ongoing tension between the Second and Fourth Battalions. The meeting was a disaster and almost led to internal war and bloodshed between the forces led by Mao and his Central Committee, and Zhang Guotao.

The Red Army spent many months in this region that borders Tibet, Sichuan and Gansu Provinces. After Mao and the Central Army left this area and set out for Yanan, Zhang Guotao and his Fourth Battalion remained for some months before they joining with the Central Committee in Yanan, thus marking the official conclusion of the Long March.

 

The Tempole of Guan, where a meeting held resulted int he separation of the 2nd and 4th Battalions.

Recently, in Lianghekou, the residents raised funds among themselves to erect a massive statue of Mao. They wanted it to be seen as far away as the Tibetan highland, to memorialize the leader who, in the words of the village head Mr. Zhang, 'was there solely for the people.'

The statue was erected shortly after the discovery that the funds intended to rebuild their village following an earthquake had been misused by the corrupt local government.

Between Lianghekou and Markan, the capital of the Aba Tibetan Autonomous Region, is a village called Zuokeji. It was here, in the local Lord's fortress, where another meeting was held. The Resolution of Zuokeji encouraged the Tibetans to fight against the British colonization and Chinese warlords and to seek self-autonomy. The Lord of Zuokeji then joined forces with the Red Army.
