1935年5月,中央红军渡过金沙江后占领四川西部的冕宁县。红军总司令朱德在这里以他的名义签署发布了一份《中国工农红军布告》,内容是:“中国工农红军,解放弱小民族;一切彝汉平民,都是兄弟骨肉。可恨四川军阀,压迫彝人太毒;苛捐杂税重重,又复妄加杀戮。红军万里长征,所向势如破竹;今已来到川西,尊重彝人风俗。军纪十分严明,不动一丝一粟;粮食公平购买,价钱交付十足。 In May 1935, the Central Red Army occupied Mianning County in the western part of Sichuan after crossing the Jinsha River. Zhu De, Commander in Chief of the Red Army, signed his name here and issued a ”Notice of the Red Army of China’s Workers and Peasants“, which reads: ”The Red Army of Chinese Workers and Peasants liberates the weak minorities and all Yi people, both civilians and brothers, hate the Sichuan warlords and oppress them The Yi people are too poisonous; they are exasperated and suffer heavy taxes and miscellaneous taxes and killings again. The Long March of the Red Army has achieved great momentum. Now it has come to western Sichuan and respects the customs of the Yi people. Military discipline is very strict and does not move; Silk purchase is fair and price is fully paid .
