Name: The Relics of Li Shuo Xun

Introduction:

In the exhibition hall of the August 1st Uprising Memorial Museum, the relics of Comrade Li Shuo Xun are displayed, including glasses, clothes, and more.

Li Shuo Xun was born in 1903 in Gao County, Sichuan Province, and participated in student movements in his early years. In 1924, he transitioned from a member of the Youth League to a member of the Communist Party of China. In 1925, he participated in and led the May Thirtieth Movement, and served as the director of the political department of the 25th Division of the Fourth Army of the Northern Expedition, becoming one of the pioneers of early military struggles in China. During the Nanchang Uprising in 1927, he served as the party representative and political department director of the main force, the 25th Division. After the uprising failed, he was sent to Shanghai to report on the situation. He later served as the secretary of the Jiangsu Provincial Committee, the secretary of the Zhejiang Provincial Committee, and other positions. In June 1930, he became the secretary of the Guangdong Provincial Committee, stationed in Hong Kong. In 1931, he went to Hainan Island to preside over a military meeting, but was captured due to betrayal. He heroically sacrificed his life in Haikou City at the age of 28.

At the end of 1974, staff from the Nanchang August 1st Uprising Memorial Museum visited Li Shuo Xun's wife, Zhao Jun Tao, in Beijing. Initially refusing the visit, Zhao learned that they were from the memorial museum and immediately welcomed them in, taking out Li Shuo Xun's memorial photo, farewell letter, and eulogies and commemorative articles from Zhu De, Guo Moruo, and others to be photographed. Later, Zhao donated Li Shuo Xun's clothes and glasses to the August 1st Uprising Memorial Museum. After these cultural relics were exhibited, Li Shuo Xun's son, Li Peng (former Premier of the State Council), visited the museum twice.
