These were troops of the Red Peasants’ and Workers’ Army, and at their head was a disgruntled intellectual named Mao Zedong. It was the end of the Long March, and it was to Yanan that Mao had led those few of his men who survived with him and tramped and fought their way across China.

Here, hacked into the loess cliff face, is the cave home where Mao lived for most of the eleven years that Yanan was headquarters of the communists.
