In which province did the Red Army cross the Jinsha River?

The Red Army crossed the Jinsha River in Yunnan Province.

The Red Army crossed the Jinsha River in Yunnan Province. In order to cross the Jinsha River, the Red Army threatened Kunming before the battle and forced the enemy to withdraw some of its troops, reducing the number of troops defending the Jinsha River and those in northern Yunnan, creating favorable conditions for the Red Army to cross the Jinsha River.

As the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, the Jinsha River was called Black Water in "Yu Gong" written more than 2,000 years ago, and it was called Shengshui in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". By the time of the Three Kingdoms, it was called Lushui. Zhuge Liang "crossed Lu in the fifth month and went deep into the barren area." In the Tang Dynasty, it was called Shenchuan, and the Battle of Shenchuan once broke out between Nanzhao and Tubo.

The red tourist attraction at the Jinsha River Ferry:

The Longjie Ferry, the red tourist attraction at the Jinsha River Ferry, is located in Longjie Village, Jiangbian Township, Yuanmou County, Yunnan Province, in the middle section of the Jinsha River, in the north of Yuanmou County , with an altitude of 898 meters and 32 kilometers away from the county seat. Its superior geographical and natural conditions make it one of the seven major ferries on the "Lingguan Road" of the ancient Southern Silk Road.

Longjiedu is not only the main ferry for merchants traveling hundreds of miles along the Sichuan and Yunnan rivers, but also an important military location that military strategists must compete for. During the Shu Han Dynasty, Zhuge Liang crossed the river here and captured Meng Huo seven times.
