History
The area now known as Zhidan County was formerly known as the town of Bao'an (Chinese: 宝安, Wade-Giles: Pao An) (corresponding to the urban core of today's Zhidan County). The town of Bao'an appears in many contemporaneous works and articles discussing the Chinese Civil War. The historical significance of the town of Bao'an arises due to its having temporarily served as the capital of the Communist-held regions of China in the midst of the Chinese Civil War. From early July 1936 to January 1937 Bao'an was the site of the Communist Party of China's (CPC) Central Committee headquarters, as well as that of the Chinese Communist military forces.
Journalist Edgar Snow visited the communist leaders in Bao'an in the summer and fall of 1936, and named the third part of his book Red Star Over China after this town. He described the town as follows:

Pain
by: DoroI wake up in the morning
in a cold sweat
when I think of your loving
you're holding back
I know I'm waiting
but it's all in vain
I sit here dying
just to breathe again
can't go on
can't get enough
when I miss you
I'm so alone
without you, without you
I'm walking on the border
of wrong and right
screaming for you baby
to ease my mind
no one is here who can get me through
all I need is a word from you
I know I'm waiting
but it's all in vain
I sit here dying to feel love again
can't go on
can't get enough
when I miss you
I'm so alone
In pain
time and time again
it's running through my veins
oh take away this pain
the darkness in my heart
let me breathe again
take away this pain
I'm talking to the shadow
on the wall
waiting for an answer
before I fall
am I dreaming
or are you near
were you calling
just to ease my fear
Am I waiting all in vain
I sit here dying
to feel loved again
I can't go on
can't get enough
cos' I miss you
I miss your love
I'm in pain
time and time again
it's running through my veins
oh can you free my heart
the darkness in my head
let me breathe again
take away this pain
