Xu Jianye (1920-1948), formerly named Xu Mingde, later named Xu Mingyi and Xu Lide, pseudonyms Yang Shaowu, Yang Qing and so on, is a native of Yansheng.

In 1937, when the Anti Japanese war broke out, Xu Jianye, influenced by his classmate ou ruqin, participated in the national salvation singing meeting, held the Anti Japanese wall newspaper office, and joined in the Anti Japanese and national salvation movement. In August 1938, he joined the Communist Party of China and successively served as a member and Secretary of the county special branch organization, a member of Chongqing municipal Party committee, and in charge of the work of Chongqing labor movement.

From November 1938 to 1940, he worked in Tianfu coal mine under the cover of Baimiaozi station manager's open occupation, eating moldy rice with the workers and living in the coal shed. Most of their meager wages were used to help the poor workers, and even the charcoal they got was shared with the workers. Therefore, he soon established a deep friendship with the workers. Jianye started from teaching workers to read, learn arithmetic and sing songs, and gradually carried out the Enlightenment of revolutionary thought until it publicized the truth of resisting Japan and saving the country, and then trained the backbone of workers and developed the party organization. He led the workers to strike bravely and tactfully for many times and resisted the cruel oppression and abuse of the workers by the capitalists.

On May 1, 1939, the winch workers in Baimiaozi took the lead and went on strike in the whole station. Jianye seized the right time and ordered to stop the winch, which choked the throat of the coal mine transportation, so that the coal in the mine could not be transported and the ships in the river could not leave. When the mine learned that the winch was shut down, it was panicked. The director of the transfer section rushed to the scene and threatened to say, "if we don't start work soon, all striking workers will be expelled", and Xu Jianye will be held responsible for his dereliction of duty. Xu Jianye and the workers did not give in, firmly pointed out that "holiday is not a strike, holiday work must be paid overtime." LAN Tiren, the director of the company's coal mine, was afraid that the stalemate would go on and cause trouble, so he was forced to ask the manager by telephone for approval of overtime pay for one day, which set a precedent for the "May Day" holiday in Tianfu Mining Area. Since then, the workers have more support and trust in the leader of Jianye.

In the spring of 1940, a couple of miners suffered from typhoid fever and had no money for treatment. When Jianye learned about it, he mobilized his brothers to help him. At the same time, he sold three carts of coke in the mine, so that the sick miners could be cured and recovered. After knowing this, the mining side was furious, reprimanded Jianye for violation of regulations and dereliction of duty, ordered to lose money, and posted notices to expel the treated workers. The workers immediately went on strike to protest. The mine first suppressed the strike by catching "troublemakers" and then tried to sabotage the strike by recruiting odd workers. According to the instructions of the party organization in the mining area, Jianye organized the workers to control the winch station and the means of transportation in time, so that the management did not succeed. On the fourth day of the strike, the mining side felt that the loss was too great and bribed him by promoting him as the head of the transportation unit. Jianye refused. The miner had no choice but to negotiate with the workers that night and accepted the conditions that "the sick workers will not be expelled, the medical expenses of the workers will be reimbursed by the company, and the wages of the workers will be converted into rice". Only then did the miner reach an agreement to return to work the next day. Since then, the Kuomintang reactionaries have paid close attention to Jianye and tried to arrest it.

In 1941, Jianye pseudonym Xu Lide sneaked into Chongqing. He was first employed as a teacher of Daxigou primary school, and then admitted to Hecheng bank as an employee.

In 1942, Jianye was sent to Langzhong County Office as director by the boss of the bank. Soon after he lost contact with the party organization, he resigned and went back to Chongqing to find the party. In the absence of organizational leadership, social career and hunger, he insisted on working in Chongqing's 21st, 29th, 50th, Tianyuan Chemical Plant and Tongyuan Bureau. He kept close contact with the workers and consciously worked for the party.

In the summer of 1943, with the help of Zhou Zhiyuan and Zhou Ping, Jianye got in touch with the CPC Central Committee of Baxian County, and the party organization arranged him to continue to engage in the Chongqing workers' movement.

After the victory of the Anti Japanese war in 1945, Jianye led the Chongqing workers to fight against the dark rule of the Kuomintang in a reasonable, advantageous and orderly manner in strict accordance with the party's underground work policy.

He personally came to Dadukou steel works to support the workers in their struggle for punishing the murderer of the "March 23" massacre, raising wages and improving working conditions, and corrected the mistakes in the struggle in time.

In the spring of 1947, in order to cooperate with the counter offensive of the Chinese people's Liberation Army, according to the principle of "rural work first, cities serving the countryside", the party organization in eastern Sichuan prepared for the joint armed uprising in Huayingshan counties. Jianye sent gun making equipment and materials to the countryside from the arms factory to provide conditions for the establishment of secret arms factory, and also delivered batches of simple medical equipment and medicines for guerrilla groups in various places. At the same time, he continuously led the strike struggle of the workers in the factories and mines in the urban areas, restrained and dispersed the enemy forces, and provided strong cooperation for the rural struggle.

The enemy regarded him as an important member of the organization of the Communist Party of China in Chongqing, and tortured him with all kinds of instruments of torture. Don't say you have 48 sets of punishments, you are 84 sets of punishments. If you are afraid, you are not a communist. The enemy lured women with money, high officials and high salaries. Jianye sternly scolded: "shameless man! How do you understand the aspirations of Communists? We treat official positions and money like dirt. You don't want to know the secret of the party. "

In the early morning of July 22, 1948, Jianye was dragged onto the execution vehicle by the enemy. He was wearing instruments of torture, but he held his head high. Along the way, he sang "the Internationale" and chanted "down with the Kuomintang reactionaries!" Long live the Communist Party of China Waiting for slogans until hoarse.
