Located at the foot of Gele Mountain in Chongqing, China. Originally a man-made coal mine, it was named because it was rich in muck. 2.5 kilometers from Bai Mansion. 1939 Kuomintang changed this place into a prison, 1943 it was transformed into the second prison by the Sino-American Cooperation Institute, directly under the office of the Chief Executive of Southwest China.

Zhazidong was originally a small coal mine with artificial coal mining, so it was named after less coal and more slag. Surrounded by mountains on three sides and ditches on one side, the terrain is hidden. 1943, Bai Mansion was changed into the third guest house of the Institute for Sino-American Cooperation, and the imprisoned "political prisoners" moved here and returned in April 1947. 1947 65438+February, Zhazidong, which was closed for more than half a year, was taken back as the second detention center of Chongqing Xingyuan No.2 place. The main sources of detainees are "important criminals" arrested on June 1 day, 1947, "Forward Newspaper" and "Little People Revolution" cases. At most, more than 300 insurgents were arrested after the failure of the armed uprising in Shangxiachuan. Martyrs such as Jiang Zhujun, Xu Jianye and Yu Zusheng were once held here. Zhamudong Detention Center is divided into two courtyards, with a discharge dam in the inner courtyard, one male prison and two female prisons on the first floor 16. In order to break the revolutionary's fighting spirit, the secret agents specially wrote on the inner wall of the dross cave, "Youth is gone forever, think about it, recognize this time and place clearly, and don't be stubborn." Slogans of "endless maze, turning back to the shore" and "be patient and have no regrets". The outer court is the spy office and torture room. There is a sign hanging on the wall of the outer courtyard, telling the spy that "what the officer can't see, think, hear or do must be seen, thought, heard and done by the officer".

The prisoners in Bai Mansion were all "serious political prisoners" considered by the military.

Because there were not enough guards in the Slag Cave, the guards in the White House were transferred, leaving only one guard, that is, Luo Guangbin, the author of Red Rock, to do the guard work and explain the situation to him, saying that if he was released, he would run to the mountain outside the prison to hide from being slaughtered by the Kuomintang.

The Kuomintang reactionaries also want to turn China into a country under the dictatorship of the big landlords and the big bourgeoisie. They colluded with U.S. imperialism, and in June 1946, they attacked the liberated areas led by China's * * * production party and launched a civil war.
