Former site of Red Army Zunyi garrison headquarters

The former site of the Red Army's Zunyi garrison headquarters is located in the middle of Yangliu street, the old city of Zunyi, opposite to the exhibition hall in the Zunyi Conference site. It was originally the residence of Zhou Jishan, deputy commander of the Guizhou army of the Kuomintang.

On January 7, 1935, the sixth regiment of the second division of the first corps of the central red army occupied Zunyi City. The Central Revolutionary Military Commission decided to set up the Zunyi garrison headquarters with Liu Bocheng, chief of the general staff of the Red Army, as its commander and Chen Yun, a political member of the Military Commission column (composed of the first field column and the second field column of the Military Commission at the initial stage of the breakout). Zunyi garrison headquarters is located in the private residence of Zhou Jishan, deputy division commander of Qianjun army, Yangliu street, the old city of Zunyi. The establishment of the Red Army's Zunyi garrison headquarters has made an important contribution to the smooth holding of the Zunyi Meeting and the establishment of the Soviet base area with Zunyi as the center. In 2004, the people's Government of Zunyi City appropriated funds to restore the former site of Zunyi police headquarters in the middle of Yangliu street, the old city of Zunyi. The Zunyi Conference memorial hall is restored to display Liu Bocheng's and Chen Yun's living rooms, which were officially opened to the public on January 15, 2005.

After the establishment of the Red Army's Zunyi garrison headquarters, the city defense of Zunyi was arranged, and the leading forces were ordered to continue to advance northward, occupy Tongzi and Loushan Pass, and control the only channel, city and pass in the north. At the same time, the cadre regiments and security regiments of the Central Military Commission column were distributed in the main channels of Zunyi new and old cities, so as to ensure the smooth holding of Zunyi Conference and the realization of the goal of "establishing a Soviet base with Zunyi as the center".

The role of the former site of the Red Army's Zunyi garrison headquarters

After the Zunyi Meeting, on January 19, the Central Red Army left Zunyi and headed north, and the Zunyi garrison headquarters of the red army withdrew on its own. In January 1940, Zhejiang University moved to the west, and established the College of science and the College of agriculture in Meitan. The College of Arts, including the Department of history and geography, was in Zunyi. Its former site was the headquarters of the guard area at the Zunyi Meeting, which was less than 100 meters away from the Zunyi Meeting site. In May 1946, Zhejiang University returned to the West and left the Red Army garrison headquarters.
