The Shanghai People's Security Corps was a workers' armed self-defense organization composed of workers' pickets and factory protection teams in April 1949, on the eve of the liberation of Shanghai, in order to cooperate with the People's Liberation Army in the liberation of Shanghai, which was responsible for protecting factories, schools, organs, warehouses and public places from being destroyed by the Kuomintang. At the same time, he acted as a guide for the People's Liberation Army and helped the People's Liberation Army maintain local order.
The party was led by Liu Changsheng, Zhang Chengzong, Zhang Qi, and others, and divided into 6 district teams according to the areas of Hudong, west, south, north, central and Pudong, with a total of more than 60,000 people, and set up a general headquarters of the People's Security Corps, with Shen Han as the commander-in-chief.
In order to protect the safety of the lives and property of the people of Shanghai and the excellent historical buildings, the People's Liberation Army did not use heavy weapons in accordance with the instructions of its superiors, and made relatively large sacrifices. The Shanghai People's Security Corps also played an important role in guarding factories, schools, institutions and warehouses during the war.
When the south of The Suzhou Creek was liberated, the General Headquarters of the People's Security Corps was stationed in the Jianghai Customs Building, and began to work in three rooms on the 4th floor, directing the team members to continue to assist the People's Liberation Army in its work.
Jiang customs building is a building with obvious characteristics in the Bund complex in Shanghai, with a tall and majestic bell tower, beautiful bells, accompanied by the familiar "Oriental Red" music, which makes people feel very intimate.
The Custom House was designed and built by the British in 1925 to form a "sister building" with the adjacent HSBC Building. The towering bell tower was the tallest building on the Bund in Shanghai at the time, and served as a beacon and lighthouse for ships sailing into the Huangpu River.
The largest clock in Asia and the third in the world, accurately and melodiously times the ships entering the customs every day with its pleasant bells, adding to the interest of life for the people of Shanghai.
Nowadays, people come to Shanghai, the Bund is a punch card for many people, and enjoying the beauty of the Bund has become a kind of enjoyment. In this dazzlingly beautiful scenery, there are unforgettable legends and stories.
Although the Shanghai People's Security Corps has only been stationed in the Bund Customs Building for a short period of time in the long river of history, its heroic and fearless revolutionary feats, as a cultural relics protection unit in Shanghai, have left us with a deep red memory.
