Revolutionary Martyrs' Cemetery of Yingebu Town
The Revolutionary Martyrs' Cemetery of Yingebu Town is located on the western hillside of Yingebu Village, Yingebu Town, Tonghua County, approximately 1 kilometer from the village center. It covers an area of 300 square meters, with a protected area spanning 200 square meters. The cemetery was established between 1946 and 1947, and came into use in 1956.
In the summer of 1947, two members of the Anti-Traitor and Liquidation Work Team in Yingebu District, Tonghua County, including Shen Fuxiang, were on a mission in Siping Village when they encountered bandits on the western hill of Siping Village. They were killed in battle after intense fighting; in the same year, four comrades from the Yingebu District Work Team, including Yang Xifeng, engaged in combat with the Kuomintang army in Huanxiling Village, present-day Sankeyushu Town, and died heroically. On February 13, 1947, the Battle of the Third Defense of Linjiang commenced. On March 18, the 26th Regiment of the 9th Division of the 3rd Column of the Northeast Democratic Allied Forces, stationed in the area of present-day Fujiang Township, Tonghua County, received orders to advance toward Tonghua. After fierce fighting, they captured Yingebu and Kuaidaomaizi. During the battle to take Yingebu, seven soldiers from our army sacrificed their lives in present-day Dadamu Village, Yingebu Town, and Chelingbei Village, Sipeng Township. In 1956, the Yingebu District Office consolidated the graves of six work team members who died during the anti-traitor and liquidation efforts and rent and interest reduction campaigns, along with the graves of seven soldiers from the 26th Regiment of the 9th Division of the 3rd Column of the Northeast Democratic Allied Forces who died in the battle to capture Yingebu. These were interred together on the western hillside of Yingebu Village, forming the present-day Revolutionary Martyrs' Cemetery of Yingebu Town, Tonghua County.
Established between 1946 and 1947, and put into use in 1956. The site has been preserved and utilized. (Provided by the Party School of the CPC Tonghua County Committee)
