Yu Yuan (1895-1949), also known as Guangzao, was born in Yujiaba village, Shehong County, Sichuan Province. He is forthright and full of rebellious spirit. When he was indignant, he was forced to fight back. After 1914, he entered Luzhou lecture hall for the first time. In 1925, he served as commander of the garrison and gendarmerie in Wancheng county. In 1926, he led the army to fight against the British warships that were seized by force. He joined the Communist Party of China in the same year. During the first Civil Revolutionary War, Yu Yuan supported the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, participated in the workers' and peasants' revolution, accepted Marxism Leninism, and got in touch with the Communist Party leaders Yang ERGONG, Wu Yuzhang, Zhu De and Liu Bocheng who were active in Sichuan at that time. After 1927, he served as the commander of the sixth brigade of the second division of Liu Xiang Department of the 21st army of Sichuan army, the commander of the second brigade of the instructor, and the major general. In 1928, Zhang Zhihe, deputy commander of the first division of Liu Wenhui's Department stationed in Jiangjin, organized a soldier uprising, which was exposed due to his mistakes in action. As a result, the Communists in the army were threatened by the "Clean Party". The Sichuan provincial Party committee sent Yu Yuan and other two people to mediate and protect a group of Communists from adversity. In 1930, Yu Yuan carried out the decision of the provincial Party committee and launched an army uprising in Jiangjin again. Xiang Ding served as the Secretary of the former Party committee, and Yu Yuan was in charge of the command. Because the uprising plan was detected by the enemy, the organization was not strict, and there was a wide gap between the masses, he failed. from August 22 to early 24 of the Republic of China (1933-1935), when he was the director of public security in the provincial capital, he vigorously rectified the police administration and public security in Chengdu. He also used his home as a secret place for the Communists to cover many party backbones and progressives. In addition, some Communists have been put into the police station to work and directly control part of the public security power. In May 1935, when Xu Qianqian, commander in chief of the Fourth Front Army of the Red Army, led the main forces of the Ninth Army and the 30th army of the Red Army westward, Yu Yuan served as the commander of the second brigade, the instructor of the sixth Route Army of the Sichuan army. He was ordered to defend the Tumen pass between Beichuan and Maoxian. Seeing that the Red Army was blocked, Yu Yuan used the excuse of adjusting the deployment and evacuating, so that the Fourth Front Army of the Red Army successfully broke through the Tumen line of defense that night and captured Maoxian. On June 14, he met with the first front army of the Red Army in MaoGong. In October, Zhang Guotao adhered to the separatist line, refused to go north, forced the left Red Army to lead it, and went south to Chuankang to launch the "Tian, Lu, Bao" campaign. When Zhu De went south with the army, he learned that there were Yuyuan's troops in the Sichuan army defending Baoxing and Lushan. He sent a secret letter to signal the camera to give way. At the risk of death, Yu Yuan transferred his position and gave way to the gap, which made the Red Army pass smoothly and created favorable conditions for later going north to ABA. Liu Xiang dismissed Yu Yuan as brigadier general in the words of "if you don't comply with your orders, you will suddenly withdraw" and sent him to Japan for investigation at the beginning of the next year. After the "Xi'an Incident", Yu Yuan returned home to Sichuan. Together with Che Yaoxian, the leader of the Sichuan provincial Party committee of the Communist Party of China, he secretly engaged in underground struggle, funded the establishment of Liwen magazine in Chengdu, and actively carried out Anti Japanese and national salvation activities. In the second cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, Liu Xiang once again used Yu Yuan to fight against Japan in Sichuan, and appointed deputy division commander of the new 16th Division and guerrilla commander of the seventh theater. After Liu Xiang died in 1938, he abandoned his post and returned to Sichuan to engage in United Front work. in 1942, Yu Yuan joined the China Democratic Political League, introduced by Zhang Lan. In the second year of Vietnam, he was elected as the executive member of the restructured Sichuan Branch of the China Democratic League (on December 20, 1949, Yu Yuan was elected as a member of the Central Committee of the Democratic League at the enlarged meeting of the Fourth Plenary Session of the Central Committee of the Democratic League of China. On August 29th, 1946, the Sichuan Democratic League organized a memorial meeting for Wen Yiduo and Li Gongpu, two patriots and democracies killed by Chiang Kai Shek's secret agents, in Chengdu Rongguang cinema. Under the crazy disturbance and destruction of enemy agents, he and Zhang Lan insisted on holding the meeting as scheduled with the fearless revolutionary spirit, expressing their deep sorrow for the martyrs and their contempt and indignation for the reactionaries . In 1947, Chiang Kai Shek carried out all-round white terror. On the night of June 1, the Chengdu police headquarters arrested Yu Yuan and put him in prison. In prison, Yu Yuan, together with Yang Bokai, United and encouraged his friends in need to fight. In the face of extorting confessions by torture and threats and inducements, he was always unyielding and righteous. The enemy tried to ask him to write a "letter of repentance". Yu Yuan replied, "now it's almost dawn. What have I ever regretted? It should be you, not me!" on the night of December 7, 1949, Yu Yuan and other 34 revolutionaries were secretly killed at the 12th bridge outside the west gate of Chengdu. after the liberation of Chengdu, the provisional military and political Commission of Northwest Sichuan held a solemn and ceremonious public sacrifice ceremony for the martyrs of Yuyuan and other 12 bridges in Chengdu on January 19, 1950, and buried their bodies in the martyrs' tomb of erxian'an (today's Cultural Park) in Qingyang palace. On March 5, 1951, Yu Yuan and other revolutionary martyrs were awarded the title with the approval of Western Sichuan administrative office.
