During the battle in Sanjiao Town, Liu Zhidan kept moving forward to command and reconnoiter the enemy's situation. Unfortunately, he was shot and died. He was buried in a thin coffin and was carried back to the security guard by soldiers and civilians.Xi Zhongxun, who was working in Huanxian County, learned that Liu Zhidan had died on the front line of the Eastern Expedition, so he rode eastward to express his grief.In September 1936, Xi Zhongxun was sent to Xunyi by the central government to serve as secretary of the Guanzhong Special Committee, and the situation opened up within a few months.Shortly after the Xi'an Incident was peacefully resolved, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party united to resist Japan, and the Eighth Route Army prepared to cross the Yellow River eastward.Xi Zhongxun recruited troops from Guanzhong and supplemented the 120th Division, and met Peng Dehuai, He Long, Ren Bishi and others.Then he went to Fuping's home, and after a quick meeting with his uncle and sister, he returned to Xunyi and went to work.
