Zhao Guantao Martyr Photo

/kloc-in the winter of 0/950, Chen Bing, the first president of Zhejiang Daily, handed a yellow photo of Fang Zhimin martyr to Xu Yonghui, a photojournalist, and asked him to remake it as soon as possible. The original photo should be sent to the central government. When explaining the task, Chen Bing said: "This was handed over to the provincial party committee by the Shengxian County Committee. It was found in the home of a bully named Zhao in Ganlin Town. "

Why are the prison photos of Fang Zhimin martyrs hidden in Zhao's home? This has a historical background.

Gan Lin's Zhao brothers, with local armed forces and long-term hegemony, are the eldest Zhao, the second Zhao Xuequan (Zhao Guantao) and the third Zhao. As early as the 1920s, Zhao served as the captain of Ganlin patrol team. He and the bully landlords Qiu and Qian Weili in Chongren and Changle towns organized local vigilante groups to control the village. After Zhao died, Zhao inherited his mantle and became the local ruler.

Because of Zhao Guantao's position and influence in the army, his two brothers, Zhao Xueyong and Zhao, were able to dominate the whole country in the holy county, especially in the area of Ganlin, and bully the people in the countryside. And Zhao Guantao through his brother, from time to time in the village to promote his achievements, make public his prestige, for example, when Comrade Fang Zhimin was arrested and sacrificed, Zhao Guantao sent photos about the case, including photos of his own trial of Fang Zhimin.

1935 On the morning of March 29th 10, Zhao Guantao stood on the steps in front of the military auditorium, next to four or five guards with guns. Under the command of the deputy commander, the guards took five people, including Fang Zhimin, with Fang Zhimin in the front and four others in the back, and stood under the steps. Fang Zhimin was handcuffed, wearing a short uniform, sandals, a moustache, smiling and dying. Zhao Guantao hypocritically said to Fang Zhimin, "You have worked very hard." Fang Zhimin laughed it off. Zhao Guantao asked Fang Zhimin again, what's your opinion? Fang Zhimin replied without thinking: "I listen to you, and I have no problem." . The voice is clear, the voice is not high and melodious, without the slightest timidity and fear. This is an interrogation.

Afterwards, Zhao Guantao printed more than 200 photos of "interrogation" to publicize his contribution and distributed them everywhere. Zhao Guantao, the original principal of Shigao Primary School in Sheng County, actually hung the photo in the school office.

1 In May, 1949, the 2nd1Jundi1Division of the 7th Corps of Sanye entered Shengxian County, joined comrades in local guerrilla zones, and liberated the whole territory of Shengxian County. On May 23rd, when the local people's armed forces, who insisted on the revolutionary struggle for a long time, entered Ganlin Town under the leadership of the temporary county party secretary (Shou Jusheng) and Ganlin District Mayor Zhou, they seized a batch of buried machine guns, rifles and bullets in the "foreign houses" in Zhao Xinjian. In August, Zhao, who fled with her, was arrested. When the People's Government raided two houses of Zhao's family in Taoyuan Township (now Tongbei Township) and Ganlin Town, it seized photos of Fang Zhimin martyrs hidden by Zhao.
