2026 marks the 90th anniversary of the victory of the Long March. Over six months, CGTN Frontline created 15 original hand-drawn illustrations, telling the story of this historic journey through imagined letters from Long March veterans.

At the invitation of China's Ministry of National Defense (MND), around 90 foreign military attachés from over 50 countries visited Guizhou and Sichuan provinces from November 2 to 7.

They explored military and civilian units and revolutionary sites along the Long March route, and learned about the development of the two provinces. They also viewed CGTN's original illustrations, which offer a vivid account of the hardships and sacrifices of the Long March.

Through the illustrations and their visits to historic sites, the attachés gained a deeper understanding of the Long March and its enduring spirit.
