People pay tribute to the martyrs in front of a memorial wall at the Red Army Martyr Cemetery of Sichuan and Shaanxi Revolutionary Base at Wangping Village of Tongjiang County, southwest China's Sichuan Province on Oct. 15, 2016 to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the end of the Red Army's Long March. From October 1934 to October 1936, the Red Army, the forerunner of the People's Liberation Army (PLA), carried out a daring military maneuver that laid the foundation for the eventual victory of the Communist Party of China (CPC).
