Development history

The history of modern Suzhou is a history of pioneers exploring the truth of saving the country and the people. As early as the great revolution in modern times, our party's early revolutionary activists Xiao Chunu, Yun Daiying and Deng Zhongxia left revolutionary footprints in Suzhou. During the Anti Japanese War, the New Fourth Army, the "Jiang Anti Japanese" troops and the guerrillas in Yangcheng Lake and Taihu Lake launched an arduous struggle against the enemy and puppets. Many outstanding sons and daughters of the party shed their blood on this land, and many legendary stories are still circulating among the masses.
