The Long March greatly strengthened Mao Zedong's leadership position.

Explanation:

The Long March was the military retreat that the Communist Red Armies undertook during the civil war of 1934, leaving their encircled post in Southeast China. This move also led to the change in their operational base to Northwestern China. This historical trek took them a year, covering more than 4,000 miles, crossing mountain ranges and rivers along the way. While this heroic act led many young Chinese to be inspired to join the cause, it also cemented the leadership position of Mao Zedong.
