According to the records of the Party history, on April 20th, 1932, after the East Route Army of the Chinese Workers and Peasants Red Army conquered Zhangzhou, Comrade Mao Zedong took the "Red Chamber" as his studio and living room and lived there for more than a month. Chairman Mao held several meetings of cadres above division level in the "Red Chamber" and made important decisions. Later, he called this unforgettable Red Mansion "Red Mansion".
The Red Mansion in Shan Zhi witnessed the important revolutionary history of Zhangzhou Campaign. According to the party history data, in the early 1930s, the 49th Division of the Kuomintang occupied here, sabotaging the Minnan Revolution and repeatedly committing crimes in the Soviet area in western Fujian. 1932 On April 3rd, Mao Zedong, then Chairman of the Provisional Central Government of the Chinese Soviet Union, led the Eastern Route Army composed of the 1st and 5th Corps of the Chinese Red Army of Workers and Peasants, which set out from Changting and headed south, and occupied Longyan on April 8th. /kloc-at dawn in April, 0/9, after fierce battles in Tianbao Town, a suburb of Zhangzhou, and Crossridge, the 49th Division of the Kuomintang was completely annihilated. Teacher Zhang zhen abandoned the city, leaving only a few Qin Bing. By 3 pm, the battle was over. In this campaign, our army won a total victory and achieved brilliant results.
In order to make the people in the White Area truly understand that the Red Army is a team that works for the poor, the East Route Army generally conducted serious policy and discipline education before entering the city, and held a grand ceremony to enter the city at 8 am on April 20. After the Red Army entered Zhangzhou, Mao Zedong held a meeting of cadres and political commissars at or above the division level in the Red Chamber of Shan Zhi on February1,summed up the battle of Zhangzhou and worked out the next action plan. At the beginning of June, the Red Army returned to the Soviet area.
There are five red army propaganda slogans on the witness history wall.
In the courtyard of Zhangzhou Municipal Government, I saw the red building of Shan Zhi in the center of the courtyard. Shan Zhi Red Mansion is backed by Shan Zhi Park and surrounded by lush trees and flowers. On the left front of the memorial hall stands the monument to the conquest of Zhangzhou by the East Army of the Chinese Workers and Peasants Red Army, with the inscription Marshal Nie.
Workers set up scaffolding outside the Red Mansion in Shan Zhi for maintenance. Shan Zhi Red Mansion covers an area of 704 square meters, with a building area of 480 square meters. The basement is on the basement floor, with a wall masonry and two or three layers of red bricks, so it has the reputation of "red building". A wall was built around the building, and five Red Army propaganda slogans, such as "The poorest workers and peasants automatically become the Red Army" and "Agrarian Revolution", were left on the wall.
The Red Mansion in Shan Zhi was originally the main building of Xunyuan Middle School, an early American missionary school. After 1980, the protective layer on the wall peeled off, the roof leaked rain, and the doors and windows were deformed. At present, the staff of the memorial hall stressed that the red building is basically well preserved. At present, it is only for maintenance, and at the same time, the exhibits inside will be sorted out, and no major maintenance will be carried out. More than 1000 revolutionary cultural relics preserved in the museum are mostly paper cultural relics. Due to the lack of moisture-proof and insect-proof equipment and storage conditions at constant temperature and humidity, it is seriously damaged by natural factors and will be rearranged and protected.
Repair the former residence and create a national red tourism boutique route
The relevant departments in Zhangzhou will focus on the Red Army led by Chairman Mao to conquer Zhangzhou Memorial Hall and build a national red tourism boutique route. Restore the "Shan Zhi Red Mansion" to the exhibition hall of the former residences of China leaders such as Chairman Mao, Deng Zihui and Luo Ming, and build a new "Exhibition Hall of Chairman Mao Leading the Red Army to Conquer Zhangzhou" on the east side of Shan Zhi Red Mansion to better protect this excellent historical building.
"Chairman Mao led the Red Army to conquer Zhangzhou Memorial Hall" has been included in the first batch of national red tourism classic scenic spots, which will undoubtedly promote the development of "red tourism scenic spots" such as Zhangzhou main battlefield, revolutionary guerrilla base in Wu Shan, Xiao Yun, Nanjing Longshan Red Army Building, Red Army Bridge, Pinghe Riot Site, and Red Santuan North Long March. "Chairman Mao led the Red Army to conquer Zhangzhou Memorial Hall" will become the brand pillar of developing Zhangzhou tourism market.
