He is Tao Zhu.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > he is rich in experience and quite legendary: he was the secretary general of the Central Military Commission during the Yan'an period</h1>

In 1926, Tao Zhu was admitted to the fifth phase of the Whampoa Military Academy. After that, he participated in the famous Nanchang Uprising and the Guangzhou Uprising.

From 1929 to 1933, he served as secretary general of the Fujian Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China and secretary of the Fuzhou Central Municipal Party Committee. He was later arrested for betrayal by traitors and imprisoned until 1937.
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Tao Zhu served in Yan'an as secretary general of the Central Military Commission, secretary general of the General Political Department, and director of propaganda. During the Liberation War, Tao Zhu went to the northeast and successively served as the secretary of the Liaoning Provincial Working Committee of the CPC, and later he also teamed up with the famous general Deng Hua and served as the political commissar of the 7th Column of the Northeast Democratic Coalition Army.
