About Former New Fourth Army Headquarters, Yansi
The Jin family compound at 22 Yinshan Road in Yansi, used as headquarters by the Communist-led New Fourth Army in the spring of 1938, when guerrilla units from eight southern provinces gathered here to be reorganised before moving to the front against Japan; the commanders Ye Ting and Xiang Ying lived in two of its three houses. A memorial museum stands across the lane from the compound, and the site also takes in the Ming Hongqiao covered bridge, beside which the army's code office worked, and the Ming Wenfeng Pagoda and Fengshan platform, where troops drilled and were reviewed.
