==History==
In the [[Chinese Civil War]], Pingjiang was a part of the ''Hunan-Hubei-Jiangxi Revolutionary Base Area'' ({{lang|zh-hans|湘鄂赣革命根据地}}), and, from November 1931, of the [[Hunan-Hubei-Jiangxi Soviet]] ({{lang|zh-hans|湘鄂赣苏维埃}}).{{Citation needed|date=January 2017}}

The Communist Marshal [[Peng Dehuai]] was a Kuomintang Colonel in 1928, when he was stationed in Pingjiang with orders to eliminate local groups of communist guerrillas who had fled to the area following [[Chiang Kai-shek]]'s [[Shanghai massacre of 1927|nationwide suppression of Communists]]. Because Peng had secretly joined the [[Chinese Communist Party]] he instead kept his unit passive and began to organize local Communist Party branches. Peng rebelled against the Kuomintang on 28 July 1928, beginning his career as a military leader in the Red Army from his base in Pingjiang. Some of Peng's subordinates in the rebellion survived and became important military figures themselves, including generals [[Huang Kecheng]] and [[Peng Shaohui]].<ref>Domes, Jurgen.
