Chongqing Xinhua Daily published an article by Wen Jian: "Is such a gorgeous pictorial published in a place where the enemy is fighting so hard?" When we saw the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Pictorial, we couldn't help being surprised. It called us precious, and let us watch it again and again, reluctant to put it down and stare at the colorful cover of wood-based paper. ..... Naturally, these documents are trophies. Hard troops behind enemy lines not only seized weapons from the enemy to arm themselves, but also seized materials to enrich their spiritual food, because they did not forget their cultural education and improvement in the case of hard fighting.
