  2. Wednesday, May 22, 2013 • Quiet Question: Type Two Prompt----In the previous lesson, we examined how China experienced revolution, civil war, and invasions in the 20th century that eventually led to the Communist victory under Mao in 1949. The following are primary sources about the Long March. In the one of the primary sources, Mao refers to the Long March as a lesson to be learned and followed as the Japanese are once again invading China in 1937.

  3. Mao also wrote: • Speaking of the Long March, one may ask, "What is its significance?"We answer that the Long March is the first of its kind in the annals of history, that it is a manifesto, a propaganda force, a seeding-machine. … The Long March is a manifesto. It has proclaimed to the world that the Red Army is an army of heroes, while the imperialists and their running dogs, Chiang Kai-shek and his like, are impotent. It has proclaimed their utter failure to encircle, pursue, obstruct and intercept us.The Long March is also a propaganda force. It has announced to some 200 million people in eleven provinces that the road of the Red Army is their only road to liberation. Without the Long March, how could the broad masses have learned so quickly about the existence of the great truth which the Red Army embodies?The Long March is also a seeding-machine. In the eleven provinces it has sown many seeds which will sprout, leaf, blossom, and bear fruit, and will yield a harvest in the future. • ON TACTICS AGAINST JAPANESE IMPERIALISM Report given by Mao Zedong at a Party conference, December 27, 1935
