Historical evolution

In April 1941, Yuyao fell into the enemy's hands. About 900 people from the fifth detachment of Songhu guerrillas in the third war zone, led by the Shanghai Party of the Communist Party of China, crossed the Hangzhou Bay in seven groups and entered the "Three North" (north of Yuyao, Cixi and Zhenhai counties). In July 1942, Tan Qilong, secretary and he Kexi, Yang Siyi and Gu Dehuan, members of the eastern Zhejiang District Committee of the Communist Party of China, were established. In August, the three North guerrilla headquarters was established and later changed into the eastern Zhejiang guerrilla column of the New Fourth Army.

Establishment of Zhejiang East District Party committee

In July 1942, the central China Bureau of the Communist Party of China decided to establish the Party committee of eastern Zhejiang. The former two houses of MI Zhangxiao, a native of MI Jiadai, were used as office addresses, while the latter were occupied by Mi family. The MI family opened the MI Dachang cigarette shop in Qinghefang, Hangzhou, which is a local rich merchant. The house has three entrances, facing south from north. On the central axis, it is composed of the main gate, main hall and back building. The East and west sides are Xiang Lou. The front gate is three Bay wide with single slope top. The entrance is patio; the second entrance is main hall with five rooms and two lanes. Mingjian is a compound building with double eaves and high hall. It is a mixed structure with beams and buckets. The front porch is set up, and the other secondary rooms are two-story houses with stairs and sandwich rooms on both sides, which are connected with the East and West Wing rooms. The wing rooms on both sides are two-story buildings, with three bays on the surface and mixed structure of beam lifting and bucket piercing.

After the southern Anhui Incident, the CPC Central Committee made plans to create more strategic units to meet the needs of the Anti Japanese struggle in the Shanghai Hangzhou Ningbo triangle region. According to this instruction, central China Bureau sent Tan Qilong to Sanbei in 1942 to take charge of the work of the Party committee of eastern Zhejiang, develop the Anti Japanese armed forces, and gradually form the base of Siming Mountain. Liang Nong, the Anti Japanese base area in eastern Zhejiang, as the military command center, led the people of eastern Zhejiang to fight against aggression.

In August 1943, the CPC Zhedong District Committee and the three North guerrilla headquarters entered hengkantou village and Lianglong town of Yuyao, and gradually formed an anti Japanese base in eastern Zhejiang with Siming Mountain as its foundation and Lianglong as its military command center. In the short three years from the establishment of the CPC Zhedong District Committee to its withdrawal from the north after the victory of the Anti Japanese War, the Party committee of Zhedong District, closely relying on the vast number of Party members and the masses of the people in Zhedong region, has won a major victory in the struggle against "clearing the countryside, mopping up and encroachment". In November 1944, it was awarded by the Party Central Committee and Chairman Mao. Before the withdrawal to the north, the eastern Zhejiang Anti Japanese base had four regional political power, 16 county-level political power, 4 million population and more than 10000 armed forces, becoming one of the eight major strategic areas in Central China and one of the 19 Anti Japanese base areas in China.
