Dai Zangyi is the only one in the photo, and the reason is very simple, as early as 1951, Dai Zangyi was executed by the people's government on the mainland.

On this day, 20 martyrs, including Zhang Rulan and Li Dazhao, were escorted to the execution ground and were only 34 years old when they died.
