We must 'believe in the risks of war'

2023-07-03

After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, some comrades in the Party believed that a nationwide civil war was "not certain". Comrade Mao Zedong pointed out sharply that just because "revolutionary forces have increased", it should not be assumed that the "danger of civil war" seems to have disappeared or naturally disappeared. Later war practices have proven that only by believing in the risks of launching war against the enemy can one maintain a clear mind, prepare well, and grasp strategic initiative; Believing in nothing will lead to loss of direction, slackening of fighting spirit, and encountering failure. War is full of contingency and uncertainty, often not based on human will. Faced with the potential risk of war, Sun Tzu pointed out that it is better to "stay together for a few years" without war, rather than to neglect vigilance and lose "victory in a day". Be prepared for the rainy season, and be the regular way of the country; The unpreparedness of the army is a great calamity for the country. It is a proactive spirit to believe in something rather than nothing; It is a bottom line thinking to believe in its importance rather than its lightness; It is a state of readiness to believe in the greater rather than the smaller. This also confirms the Dialectic of war and peace: only when you can fight can you stop the war, only when you are ready to fight can you not fight, and the more you cannot fight, the more likely you will be beaten. We often talk about 'winning future wars'. How far is the future? Decades later is the "future", and next year and tomorrow are also the "future". We are not the commanders of the enemy and cannot decide when war will break out, but we can base ourselves on "believing it has" and prepare for all battles, strengthen our sense of concern that "the war will start tonight" and our sense of mission that "we will definitely use ourselves in the first battle", and work hard to prepare for the situation. We must be fully prepared, practical, and meticulous. In this way, no matter when the enemy comes and what measures are taken, we can handle the crisis with ease, control the crisis, and win the war. If you only shout "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" instead of preparing to fight "wolf", you will eventually be injured by "wolf". War is a battle of strength. Without the ability to win decisive battles, 'believing in it' can only be self talk, and war will sooner or later be imposed on you. In today's world, power politics and jungle rules are still prevalent, and the security challenges faced by our country are very severe and complex. It is possible that a war will be fought at some point. If we have peace numbing thoughts such as "unable to fight", "unable to turn the tide of war", and "seeking a way out as soldiers", our desperate spirit of daring to shine swords and bayonets is not strong, our fearless heroic spirit of overwhelming all enemies and conquering all difficulties is not enough, and our confidence and determination to win in the face of strong enemies based on existing equipment are insufficient. When war suddenly arrives, we may make irreparable and irreparable subversive mistakes. The preparation for military struggle must be firmly grasped in hand, and cannot be relaxed for an instant. The purpose of using military force to stop the conflict is to stop the conflict, and the key lies in refined martial arts. Be cautious in times of danger and prepared in peacetime; Practice is the most important thing for those who are proficient in martial arts. Faced with the threat of war from all aspects, we must firmly adhere to the strong concern of "believing in its existence", be highly vigilant, and strategically clear. We must put the current situation map of game and struggle into our minds, hang the situation map of battlefield battles in our hearts, focus all our minds on war, and put all our work into it. We must truly excel in military affairs, resolutely be ready to fight at all times, dare to fight, win, and not humiliate
