Wujiang River has been known as a natural barrier since ancient times, with steep banks and deep water. It is a natural barrier to the south of Zunyi and Tongyin. Therefore, if the Red Army wants to capture Zunyi and Tongyin, it must first cross the Wujiang River. Under the difficult conditions that there were stubborn enemies before and pursuers afterwards, the leading troops of the Red Army launched a life-and-death struggle with the enemy.
Within three days, the vanguard troops of the Red Army bravely defeated a brigade of Hou Lidan on the other side of the Wujiang River, completed the battle task of breaking through the natural barrier of the Wujiang River, ensured the implementation of the battle plan for the whole army to March into Zunyi, and opened up a road to victory for the China revolution.

Geographical environment of Wujiang River:
The main stream of Wujiang River has a total length of1.037km, with a drainage area of 87,900km2. Liuchong River is upstream above confluence, middle reaches after confluence to Sinan, and downstream below Sinan. The larger tributaries are Liuchong River, maotiaohe River, Qingshui River, Xiangjiang River, Hongdu River, Furong River and Tangyan River, with a natural drop of 2123.5m and an average annual flow of1650m3 per second.
The average annual runoff of the basin is 600 mm deep, but it is unevenly distributed during the year, and the flood season from May to September accounts for 80% of the annual runoff. Wujiang river system is feather-shaped, with high terrain in the southwest and low terrain in the northeast. Due to the great difference in topography and strong cutting, the vertical change of natural landscape is obvious. It is famous for its fast-flowing water, narrow beaches and narrow valleys, and is known as a "natural barrier".
