  Some of the extensions on display were developed by the Jiang Shan team of the Zuoquan County Cultural Relics Bureau. Later, Mao Shanghu, the director system of this exhibition and an expert on communication, made a special trip to the countryside to continue the development. These martyrs monuments are scattered in Zuoquan, Yushe, Wuxiang, Licheng, and Shexian in Taihang Mountain. In addition to the relatively concentrated Zuoquan County, Shimen Village, Shexian County, Zuoquan Martyrs Cemetery, and Maming Village Unknown Martyrs Park, there are many sporadic sites. The monument was forgotten, and searching for it was a long process.
