huge sums of money support Nanchang Uprising
This is a receipt and a reply letter. The four big words "Prime Minister's Will" and the large paragraph of "Sun Yat-sen Will" on the yellowed paper are particularly eye-catching. The main text of these two cultural relics is handwritten by brushes, and the words "The revolution has not been successful yet, and comrades still need to work hard" are printed on both sides. It is these two cultural relics that lead to an unknown detailed story behind the major historical event of the "Nanchang Uprising".
Receipt and reply, first-class cultural relics, collection of Nanchang Bayi Memorial Hall
Donation in a timely manner
1927 In the early morning of August 1, 1927, the Nanchang Uprising led by Zhou Enlai, Ye Ting, He Long and others broke out, firing the "first shot" of the Chinese Communist Party's armed resistance to the Kuomintang reactionaries. Due to the full preparation and proper organization, and the tenacious battles of the soldiers of the uprising army, the uprising won in just four hours. The next day, more than 50,000 people from all walks of life gathered at the public stadium on the side of the imperial hall on the east side of the city to participate in the celebration of the establishment of the Revolutionary Committee and the military-civilian Gala, celebrating the great victory of the Nanchang Uprising. The entire Nanchang City was immersed in the joy of victory.
On the morning of August 3, a man named Zhu Dajian came to the party headquarters and donated 10,000 silver rounds to the rebel troops. Zhu Dajian is the head of the Jiangxi People's Committee for Congratulating the Revolutionary Soldiers of the Front Enemy, and is a left-winger of the Kuomintang. The Jiangxi People's Committee for Congratulating the Front Enemy Revolutionary Soldiers was established in June 1927 and is a mass organization.
The one who collected condolences for the uprising troops was Huang Dao and Luo Shibing , a member of the Standing Committee of the Executive Committee of the Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee of the Kuomintang. After receiving the donation, they wrote this receipt to Zhu Dajian: "I have received 10,000 yuan of donations from your association to comfort the revolutionary soldiers." At this time, the Kuomintang Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee was a joint cooperation organization with Communist Party members as the core. Huang Dao participated in revolutionary activities in his early years and was one of the founders of the Party Organization of the Communist Party of China and the revolutionary base in northeastern Jiangxi. Luo Shibing was also an early Communist Party member of Jiangxi Province. After the Nanchang Uprising, he served as a member of the Finance Committee of the newly established Revolutionary Committee. He was responsible for preparing and organizing a celebration meeting of tens of thousands of people and soliciting donations from people to condolences to the Nanchang Uprising Army.
The next day, Huang Dao and Luo Shibing handed over the donation to the rebel army. Afterwards, they wrote a letter to Zhu Dajian: "The donation from the consolation transferred by your association yesterday was sent by the two Standing Committee members of the eleventh Army and the 20th Army to the directors of the Political (Departments) of the 11th Army and the 20th Army respectively to be collected and distributed on their behalf." The reply letter was covered with a square official seal of "The Jiangxi Provincial Executive Committee of the Kuomintang" behind it.
This money is a timely help to the rebel army. At that time, the country was in financial disorder, prices soared, and the purchasing power of paper tickets was low. The treasury bill brought by Ye Ting and He Long from Wuhan and the banknotes obtained by the rebel troops taking over the Jiangxi bank were all greatly discounted. Moreover, the uprising troops were preparing to go south, and it was difficult to use paper money along the way. This ten thousand silver dollars could be used by the uprising troops on their way south.

"Reply and receipt" reflects the history of the people of Nanchang that they enthusiastically support the rebel army at that time, and also reflects the work style of party members and cadres who are serious and meticulous in their work, starting and ending. Zhu Dajian kept the receipt and reply letters properly until in the mid-1950s, when he was preparing to build the 8 Yiyi Memorial Hall in Nanchang City, he took it out and introduced the matter to the visiting comrades.
Unfortunately, they were poisoned by spies
Where did Huang Dao and Luo Shibing go later? After the Nanchang Uprising troops heading south, the zodiac was wanted by the Kuomintang reactionaries and quietly sneaked back to their hometown and engaged in revolutionary activities with Fang Zhimin in the northeast of Jiangxi.In 1930, he and Fang Zhimin, Shao Shiping and others took advantage of the favorable opportunity of the Central Plains War to establish the revolutionary base in northeast Jiangxi. Soon, the northeastern Jiangxi base area merged with the northern Fujian base area, and the northeastern Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee and the northeastern Jiangxi Soviet Government were established (later changed to the Fujian-Zhejiang-Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee and the Fujian-Zhejiang-Jiangxi Soviet Government). In July 1931, Huang Dao was transferred to the position of secretary of the Fujian-North District Committee of the Communist Party of China and was elected as executive member of the Provisional Central Government of the Chinese Soviet Republic in January 1934.

Central Red Army After the Long March, Huang Dao was ordered to stay in Northern Fujian and led the arduous three-year guerrilla war. After the " July 7 Incident ", the Kuomintang and the Communist Party established the anti-Japanese national united front through negotiations. The guerrillas distributed in various provinces in Jiangnan were adapted into the New Fourth Army. At the end of 1937, the guerrillas led by the zodiac were concentrated in Shitang Town, Qianshan, Jiangxi Province. The guerrillas in northern Fujian were reorganized into the Fifth Regiment of the Third Detachment of the New Fourth Army, and the guerrillas in eastern Fujian were reorganized into the Sixth Regiment of the Third Detachment, and rushed to the front line of the anti-Japanese war in southern Jiangnan. Huang Dao then turned to Nanchang, and
presided over the work of the New Fourth Army Office in Jiangxi.
In March 1939, the Japanese invaders launched a large-scale attack on Nanchang. With the assistance of patriots and the general public, the zodiac safely evacuated the office from Nanchang and moved to Jishuitan in Jishui County. In May, the office decided to go to Shangrao . When passing through the mouth of Qianshan River, Huangdao was admitted to the local Datong Hotel due to illness. However, something unfortunate happened at this moment.
Korean Party’s spies Huang Yucheng, Lu Henian and others bribed doctors to treat the zodiac diseases and took advantage of the opportunity to inject deadly poison into the zodiac...
After the zodiac was killed, the Kuomintang reactionaries claimed that "the zodiac death from illness" to cover up their eyes. It was not until , after the founding of New China, that spy Huang Yucheng was arrested. After eight months of investigation and interrogation, the truth of the cause of Huang Dao's death was revealed. In November 1950, Huang Yucheng was sentenced to death penalty and was executed on the outskirts of Hengfeng County. Several other spies were arrested one after another and were punished as they deserved.

When the rebel army headed south, another person involved in the "receipt and reply" Luo Shibing moved with the army and was unfortunately captured in Chaoshan area, Guangdong. However, due to his wit and courage, he was captured and escaped. In 1928, Luo Shibing went to Shanghai for treatment and was sent to Moscow, the Soviet Union to study. After returning to China in 1930, he served as Secretary of the Qingdao Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China.
During his work in Qingdao , he rebuilt the municipal party committee leadership organization that had been severely damaged, established various industrial trade unions, strengthened the party's organizational leadership over the Qingdao workers' movement, and made the workers' movement in Qingdao new, and received high praise from All-China Federation of Trade Unions .
On January 17, 1931, Luo Shibing came to Shanghai to prepare to attend the party meeting convened by Lin Yunan, Secretary-General of the All-China Federation of Trade Unions. At around 1 pm that day, when he came to the meeting place of Oriental Hotel, he never expected that it would be a trap. The concession patrol had already surrounded Oriental Hotel and arrested 7 comrades including Lin Yunan. They are now lying in the hotel waiting for other participants to fall into the trap. Luo Shibing was arrested as soon as he walked into the room of the Oriental Hotel.
Although Luo Shibing was pseudonym Su Yuqing and fabricated a set of rhetorics that had been prepared long ago, the enemy had already learned the truth from the inside and determined that he was a "main criminal of the Communist Party". He was taken to the Shanghai Songhu Security Command in Longhua with more than 30 arrested comrades.
Luo Shibing was tortured by the enemy in prison and was dying. But he never said his identity. The party organization specially set up a rescue committee to rescue Luo Shibing and others. They took advantage of the opportunity of their families to deliver meals and put secret letters with rescue plans in the food to the comrades in prison, but the rescue failed in the end.
Late at night in February 1931, 24 revolutionary comrades including Luo Shibing, Lin Yunan, He Mengxiong, Li Qiushi, Roushi, , and Longdao were taken to the execution ground to secretly kill.Since Luo Shibing did not reveal his identity at that time, people did not know the exact time and place of his sacrifice. It was not until the 1980s that the relevant departments determined that Luo Shibing was one of the 24 martyrs who died, and his name was engraved on the "Twenty-Four Martyrs of Longhua" monument.
