Huaihua is a revolutionary old area, which left behind rich red sites and inspiring revolutionary stories during the revolutionary war era. In order to tell good stories about the Red Revolution, the military and civilian forces in Hecheng District have built "National Defense Education Corridor", "Anti Corruption Education Corridor", and "Centennial Red Huaihua Hall" at the National Defense Education Center, displaying with pictures and text the battle stories that occurred in Huaihua, such as "Channel Transformation", "Battle of Bianshui", "Xiangxi Anti Banditry Campaign", etc. They also adopted a donation based and purchase based approach, collecting more than 800 red cultural relics from various periods of our party and army from the public, educating and guiding cadres, masses, and young students to remember history and heroes. Not long ago, teachers and students from Huaihua College walked into the "Centennial Red Huaihua Hall" and followed in the footsteps of the guide, watching up close the scene of the leaders of the Red Second and Sixth Army Corps holding a meeting. Yin Lihua introduced that the "Centennial Red Huaihua Hall" combines the historical background of the time and reproduces the scene of He Long leading the Red Second and Sixth Army Corps to pass through Huaihua and hold the "Bianshui Battle" combat conference in January 1936. It dynamically displays the battle process and the situation of both sides, allowing visitors to "be in" the command post and appreciate the heroic spirit of revolutionary predecessors in the era of artillery fire.
