Yancheng is a vast aquatic wetland in eastern China, with a plain stretching throughout the entire area, and most areas have an elevation of less than 5 meters. 82 years ago, the New Fourth Army headquarters was reborn here, continuing to lead the anti Japanese activities behind the enemy lines, and many New Fourth Army soldiers slept here. According to statistics, since the Great Revolution, more than 18000 revolutionary martyrs have sacrificed their precious lives here, leaving behind numerous revolutionary sites and commemorative facilities. In 2018, in order to protect the martyr memorial facilities and continue the red bloodline, Yancheng City organized a comprehensive census. The results show that there are currently 128 towns and villages named after martyrs, as well as 248 revolutionary sites, with varying degrees of attention from different regions, and the current status of protection is not optimistic. Therefore, the Yancheng Municipal Party Committee and Government have held multiple special meetings to study and formulate protection plans.
