Introduction to martyrs

Fang Zhimin was born in Yiyang County, Jiangxi Province in 1899. He joined the Chinese Socialist Youth League in August 1922. He was transferred to the Communist Party of China in March 1923. In January 1928, he took part in leading the Yiheng uprising, founded the Northeast Jiangxi Soviet Area, and led the formation of the 10th army of the Chinese workers' and peasants' Red Army. He successively served as chairman of the Soviet government of Northeast Jiangxi Province, Fujian, Zhejiang and Jiangxi Province, political member of the 10th and 11th Red Army, and Secretary of the Fujian, Zhejiang and Jiangxi provincial Party committee of the Communist Party of China. Combining the universal truth of Marxism with the reality of Northeast Jiangxi, he created a complete set of experiences in building the party, army and red regime, which Mao Zedong called "Fang Zhimin type" base area.

At the beginning of November 1934, Fang Zhimin was ordered to lead the Red Army to the north. He was appointed chairman of the military and Political Committee of the 10th Red Army Corps. In southern Anhui, he was besieged and intercepted by the Kuomintang army. He fought hard for more than two months and was besieged by seven times as many enemies as himself. Finally, he was captured in Longshou village, Yushan, Jiangxi Province on January 27, 1935. On the day of his arrest, two Kuomintang soldiers searched Fang Zhimin's body. They had no money except a time watch and a fountain pen. Just as Fang Zhimin said: "the poverty, pure and simple life is exactly where our revolutionaries can overcome many difficulties." In prison, facing the severe punishment and inducement of the enemy, he was upright and unyielding. He wrote "poverty", "prison record", "death! --A brief account of my revolutionary struggle and other works. He died in Nanchang in August 1935. The remains are now buried in Meiling, a suburb of Nanchang.

Searching for loyal bones

Where are you going

Fang Zhimin was an outstanding leader of the early peasant movement of the Communist Party of China and the main founder of the famous revolutionary base of Fujian, Zhejiang, Anhui and Jiangxi during the agrarian revolution. In January 1935, Fang Zhimin was arrested and killed secretly by Chiang Kai Shek in August of the same year. Eight immortal works, such as "the poor" and "lovely China", which he wrote with indomitable perseverance in prison, have always been valuable teaching materials and spiritual wealth for the education of patriotism and revolutionary tradition. But the whereabouts of his loyalists remained a mystery until 1958.

After the liberation of the whole country, Mao Zedong praised Fang Zhimin's heroic sacrifice many times, and taught his children and comrades around him: "Comrade Fang Zhimin is a party member with courage, ambition and talent. He died a great death. I miss him very much." However, such a martyr did not even have a tomb at that time, because no one knew where his loyalists were. In 1955, the Party Central Committee made a decision to search for the remains of martyr Fang Zhimin. Under the direct instruction of Comrade Liu Shaoqi, Jiangxi Province set up an investigation team on Fang Zhimin's remains.

Die bravely

Where is the body of martyr Fang Zhimin buried? Let's look back to the tragic page in history.

On August 6, 1935, Fang Zhimin died bravely in Nanchang. Since Fang Zhimin was killed secretly and 20 years later, few people know the exact location of the martyr's remains. At this time, it was suggested that the photographer should know that Fang Zhimin had left photos of the execution ground when he went to the prison. Around this clue, the investigation team finally found out that the photographer assigned by the Kuomintang authorities to the execution ground to take photos was a photographer named Zhenzhen photo studio. However, when the investigation team took the photographer to a place called xiashawo, where Fang Zhimin was killed, he was at a loss to identify the exact location. At the same time, it was also reported that after Fang Zhimin died, the Kuomintang authorities once buried him in a thin coffin. So the investigation team found another one of the parties and organized manpower to excavate xiashawo, but there was no result. Later, according to the photos of Fang Zhimin at the time of his execution, some people believed that Fang Zhimin's feet were shackled, and his bones must be shackled. However, of all the bones excavated, none was shackled.

Find clues

Two years passed in a flash. In the spring of 1957, the Jiangxi Dai fiber factory broke ground in xiashawo, Nanchang. One day, when the workers were digging the foundation, someone found a pile of bones with a pair of shackles! Knowing the news, the investigation team immediately instructed experts and relevant personnel to rush to the scene. Meanwhile, an urgent telegram in the name of Jiangxi provincial government was sent to Dongyang Beilu middle school in Zhejiang Province, inviting Mr. Ling Fengwu, who was once the head of the detention center, to rush to Nanchang. Because no one knows whether the shackles excavated from the construction site are those worn by Fang Zhimin. As a last resort, the investigation team had to ask Mr. Ling Fengwu to be present for identification. Ling Fengwu, a native of Jinhua, Zhejiang Province, was the head of the detention center of the Military Justice Department of Nanchang appeasement office in 1934. Fang Zhimin was escorted here, and was given the task of "persuading Fang Zhimin to surrender" by his superior. During this period, Gu Zhutong, commander of the fourth theater of war and director of Suijing County Office, personally warned him that Fang Zhimin should be strictly guarded and not be careless, saying that this was what President Jiang meant. In the process of "persuading him to surrender", Ling Fengwu not only failed to complete the "task" given to him by his boss, but was convinced by Fang Zhimin's noble righteousness. Through contact, his thoughts gradually changed, from a Kuomintang detention center director to a secret admirer of the Communists. In this case, he made Fang Zhimin change into a pair of light shackles on the excuse of "easy to persuade him to surrender" However, it was such a small charity. After Fang Zhimin died, the prison guards found Fang Zhimin's signature to "brother Mu Wu (Ling Fengwu)" from the martyr's cell. The content was to thank Ling for lightening the iron shackles for him. Ling Fengwu was detained by the Kuomintang for the crime of complicity and was taken back to his original place. Later he became a teacher. Ling Fengwu got off the train, Fang Zhimin's widow Miao min and Fang Zhimin's cousin Fang Zhichun warmly received him. At the same time, Ling Fengwu also introduced Fang Zhimin's death in detail
