Soldiers are won by governance, and governance by strictness. At the political work conference of the Central Military Commission, President Xi condensed and summarized the connotation of “ten clear” strategies for building the military in the new era, and made it clear that “strictness is the only way to correct discipline, strictness is the only way to purify military authority, and strictness is the only way to produce combat effectiveness”, which is the theoretical sublimation of the Party's valuable experience of strict governance. This important statement is the theoretical sublimation of our party's valuable experience in ruling the military, is a profound summary of the party's practice of ruling the military since the 18th National Congress, and points out the direction for the new era and the new journey to promote the comprehensive and strict rule of the military.

Strict governance of the army is the iron law of building a strong army, and is the distinctive feature and outstanding advantage of the people's army. History and reality show us that the way to govern the army is to be strict and to be lenient. Always implement the requirements of “strict”, for the nature of our army to maintain the purpose of the original color, and always maintain a strong cohesion and combat effectiveness, is of great significance. 
“Strict” is the Party's valuable historical experience in building and governing the military. Our party from the beginning of the military to the people's army “strict” gene infused into the people's army, and become a good tradition continued from generation to generation. During the war years, Comrade Mao Zedong personally advocated the formulation of the “Three Main Rules of Discipline and Eight Points of Attention,” emphasizing that “by strengthening discipline, the revolution will be invincible,” and that officers and soldiers would not eat a single apple from the townsfolk even though they were hungry and thirsty, and that troops would not stay in civilian houses even though they slept on the streets, thus demonstrating in practice that the People's Army is distinctly different from the old army. This demonstrated in action the significant difference between the People's Army and the old army. After the founding of New China, the Party put forward the “Five Unities and Four Characteristics” and promulgated the “Three Major Orders,” realizing a new development in the theory and practice of strict military governance. During the period of reform and opening up, Comrade Deng Xiaoping emphasized that “the army should be strict” and personally led the reorganization of the army, so that the tradition of strictness was consolidated and carried forward. Looking back at the history of our army's development and growth, “strictness” is the consistent requirement of the people's army, and is an important magic weapon that enables us to overcome all difficulties and enemies, and continuously move from victory to victory.
“Strictness is the successful practice of promoting the political construction of the army in the new era. Since the 18th CPC National Congress, the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core has started to implement the spirit of the eight provisions of the Central Committee, the spirit of the ten provisions of the Military Commission and its implementing rules, and has persistently pushed forward the overall strict governance of the CPC and the overall strict governance of the army. It held a conference on the political work of the whole army in Gutian, insisted on promoting political training in the spirit of rectification, and led the whole army to reorganize and set off again. Adhere to the strict word at the head, comprehensively strict, strict to the end, with the spirit of nails to correct the “four winds”, correct style, tree new style, with zero tolerance attitude to anti-corruption and punish evil, to stop some of the crooked winds that have not been stopped for many years, and solved the many long-standing unresolved miasma chronic disease, the military style of construction continues to be upward and upward, and the clean and righteous continue to be full of positive spirit. In the Central Military Commission political work conference, further declared our party and the army adhere to the strict tone of the determination of the attitude of the unshakeable, for the successive promotion of the overall strict governance of the army solidified the ideological foundation, cohesion of the will power.
“Strict” is the inevitable requirement for building a world-class army. To build the people's army into a world-class army is the grand blueprint drawn by President Xi for the construction and development of our army, and it is a pioneering great cause. A world-class army must have world-class strength and world-class image, which are inseparable from the comprehensive and strict governance of the army. Looking around the world and into the future, building a world-class army in a comprehensive manner will not be a straight path, and will certainly face many difficulties and obstacles, requiring us to overcome difficulties and break barriers with unprecedented courage. Only by carrying forward the people's army's tradition of strictness and adhering to the strict tone, strict measures and strict atmosphere for a long time can we overcome the major resistance and major contradictions on the way forward and accelerate the realization of the goal of building the people's army into a world-class armyII
The important exposition of “strictness is the only way to correct discipline, strictness is the only way to purify military authority, and strictness is the only way to produce combat effectiveness” has clarified the goal of “strictness” and revealed the intrinsic connection between “strictness” and the construction of military discipline, style of work, and combat effectiveness. It has clarified the goal of “strictness”, revealed the intrinsic connection between “strictness” and the construction of military discipline, style of work and combat effectiveness, and innovated and developed the Party's theory of military guidance. We need to deeply comprehend the rich connotations contained therein, and accurately grasp the focus and practical requirements of promoting comprehensive and strict governance of the military.
Strict in order to correct the program and discipline, we must forge iron military discipline with strict requirements. “An army without discipline can only be a rabble.” Our army is a proletarian revolutionary army organized by iron discipline, strict discipline has become the red gene into the blood of our army. To soberly realize that the strict requirements are not empty slogans, highlighting the implementation of discipline without compromise, only the law as a mountain, the law enforcement, to ensure that the troops must do what they are told, forbidding, the formation of the top and bottom of the heart, in step with the synergy. Political discipline is the most important, fundamental and crucial discipline, and observing political discipline is the important foundation for observing all the discipline of the Party and the army. Only with a higher standard, more stringent requirements for the implementation of political discipline, in order to give full play to the leading role of strict political discipline, so that the organizational discipline, integrity discipline, mass discipline, work discipline, life discipline comprehensively strict, which is also the fundamental part of the strict correct discipline. 
Strict in order to purify the military prestige, must be strict requirements to purify the style of the army. Whether the army can show majesty, the key lies in the style of image. Only a heroic force with excellent style has a strong influence and deterrent effect. The good style of the army is not naturally formed, the only way to shape a good style is to rule the army strictly. In the war years, our army won the people's heartfelt support with the image of excellent style and won the final victory of the Chinese revolution. In peacetime, we also need to rigorously refine the style of work to provide a strong guarantee for the construction and development of the army. Since the new era, our army to rectify the training, rectify the wind and the successful practice of malpractice, once again proved that strict to correct the style of work, purify the military prestige. At present, the realization of the army's one hundred years of struggle to eat hard struggle period, the more critical the more can not have relaxation, fatigue and boredom, must be strict requirements to persistently promote the construction of style, always maintain a hard style image.
Strict in order to come out of the combat effectiveness, must be strict requirements to refine the division of victory. “The people's army is always a fighting team, the vitality of the people's army lies in combat effectiveness.” History has proved that the army is invincible if it is strict, and loose if it is routed. Our army has always been known for its courage to fight and win, and its bravery in battle. People's army combat effectiveness, not only rely on military and technical conditions, but also rely on extremely strict style of discipline, extremely tenacious fighting spirit, extremely hard military literacy, in the final analysis, is to rely on the strict out of combat effectiveness. In today's era, the rapid development of military science and technology, the pattern of war and the mechanism of victory is undergoing profound changes, our army combat effectiveness construction is facing many new challenges, but the more modernized the army, the more we should carry forward the fine tradition of strict combat effectiveness, the more we have to follow the objective law of strict combat effectiveness, the implementation of strict requirements to the army to build the preparation of all aspects of the army war, to ensure that the people's army always maintain a strong combat effectiveness, to ensure that the people's army can be called, to come to the battle, to ensure that the army can be called, to come to the battle, to come to the battle. The people's army will always maintain a strong fighting capability and ensure that it will come when called upon, be able to fight, and be victorious in battleThree
Adhering to the iron rule of strict governance of the military, the noble in strict and difficult in strict. We must conscientiously implement President Xi's series of important instructions on the overall strict governance of the Party and the military, focusing on the goal of “correcting discipline”, “purging military authority” and “producing combat effectiveness”, and rooting the requirement of strictness in our thoughts, actions and work, so that the fine tradition of strictness can be carried forward in the new era and new journey. The requirement of strictness is rooted in thought, embodied in action, and realized in work, so that the fine tradition of strictness is carried forward in the new era and new journey, and the people's army is really forged into an invincible and invincible iron and steel division.
Compacting the ideological foundation of consciously from strict. High ideals and firm beliefs are the source of strength for the army to always carry out the requirements of strictness. We must adhere to the Party's innovative theories, guide officers and soldiers to deeply comprehend the decisive significance of the “two establishments”, enhance the “four consciousnesses”, “four confidence”, and “two safeguards”. “Two maintenance”, the implementation of the system of responsibility of the Chairman of the Military Commission, and effectively strengthen the conscientious and strict political awareness. Combined with the study and implementation of the spirit of the Central Military Commission's political work conference, adhere to the political root cause, continue to promote in-depth political training of the army, to dig deep roots, touch the soul of the attitude, solid ideals and beliefs, strengthen the party cultivation, purity of the official moral character, from the ideological roots to solve the problem of laxity and impracticality. The regular grasp of the party discipline learning and education, so that the officers and soldiers have a fear, words have a warning, behavior has stopped, the other law requirements into the pursuit of intrinsic values.
Implement the requirements of comprehensive strictness. To cover the whole person, for all levels of military organizations and all comrades, in front of the strict requirements of everyone is equal, no exceptions, and never leave any dead ends and gaps. It should cover the whole territory, and all the work and activities of military construction should be included in the scope of strict governance of the army, no matter whether it is military, political, logistic, or equipment, to carry out the requirements of strictness in a comprehensive manner. To do throughout the whole time, the initial that is strict, a strict to the end, resolutely abandon the idea of expediency, the idea of a moment, resolutely prevent the change of wind direction, the wrong expectations of the downgrade and change of tone, to always on the road of tenacity and determination, and to promote the implementation of the requirements of the comprehensive from the strict in-depth and detailed.
Accurately grasp the relationship between strict and law. Rule by law, strict rule of the army is the foundation of a strong army. Rule by law must follow the iron law of strict military rule, strict military rule must adhere to the principle of the rule of law. Must be strict in the law, strengthen the rule of law and the rule of law thinking, pay close attention to the implementation of regulations and systems, increase discipline supervision and accountability, so that the iron rules, so that the prohibition of power, to realize the organic unity of strict and law. Must be strict scientific, both to prevent discounts, engage in variation, but also to prevent layers of code, artificially high. In addition, in the strict requirements at the same time, we must adhere to the constraints and incentives, the combination of strict control and love, the implementation of the “three distinctions to”, to motivate people to take on the role, to create a good atmosphere of unity, tension, seriousness, and liveliness.
Always grasp the key to strict governance. The first thing to do is to rule the top, and the first thing to do is to strictly control the troops. Seize the army leading cadres of this “key minority”, to seize the “bull nose” from the strict governance of the army. To strengthen the management and supervision of leading cadres, serious political life within the party, seriously carry out criticism and self-criticism, the strict implementation of the system of double organizational life of leading cadres, open democratic supervision channels, so that leading cadres are always placed in the organization and the masses under the constraints and supervision. To educate leading cadres to establish a correct view of power, performance and career, to do justice to the use of power, prudent use of power, clean use of power, and resolutely prevent the privilege of using power for personal gain. To play the “key minority” leading demonstration role, from their own strict, from small things to start, with their own exemplary words and deeds to influence and inspire officers and soldiers, cohesion to promote the comprehensive from the strict rule of the army of the powerful synergy.
