Zhao Yiman, who was born in 1905 and joined the Communist Party of China (CPC) in 1926, went to the northeast following the September 18 Incident to lead the workers' revolutionary movements in Mukden. In April 1933, she led the Trolley Bus Workers Anti-Japanese Strike and the following year she established resistance units of farmers' guerrillas. In 1935, she was wounded in combat and captured while recuperating at a peasant's home. In spite of the torture to which she was subjected, she remained unyielding until her death on August 2, 1936.
