Ninety-one years ago, Sun Jixian led 17 brave soldiers in two groups across the Dadu River under fire, opening a passage for the Red Army to move north.

Translated paragraph context
Every morning, officers and soldiers of the “Dadu River Company” of a brigade under the Army's 74th Group Army loudly call out the names of 17 brave soldiers. Ninety-one years ago, the Central Red Army reached the banks of the Dadu River, with a natural barrier ahead and pursuers behind, its survival hanging by a thread. Led by battalion commander Sun Jixian, 17 brave soldiers from the company's predecessor crossed the raging current in two groups under heavy gunfire. With help from their comrades and boatmen, they opened a route for the Red Army to head north. That courage has transcended time and lives on in today's officers and soldiers.
