1927年,大革命失败的教训,使中国共产党深刻地认识到组建独立的革命军队的重要。蒋介石、汪精卫公开叛变以后,中共中央曾派部分负责干部前往九江,准备组织共产党能够掌握和影响的部分北伐军重回广东,继续革命。但因军事形势骤变,敌情紧迫,遂决定选择敌人兵力相对薄弱的南昌,首先发难。1927年8月1日,举行武装起义,打响反击国民党发动势力的第一枪。 The failure of the Great Revolution in 1927 taught the Chinese Communist Party a profound understanding of the importance of forming an independent revolutionary army. After Chiang Kai-shek and Wang Ching-wek publicly mutinied, the CPC Central Committee sent some cadres to Jiujiang for help and part of the CPV troops to control and influence returned to Guangdong and continued the revolution. However, due to the sudden change in the military situation and the adversity, it decided to choose Nanchang, where the enemy forces are relatively weak. August 1, 1927, held an armed uprising, launched the first shot to counter the KMT launched its forces.
