On August 1, 1927, a gunshot from the city of Nanchang announced that a new type of people's army under the independent leadership of the Communist Party had stepped onto the historical stage. Since then, the heroic people's army has bravely joined the historical torrent of seeking liberation and happiness for the Chinese people and independence and rejuvenation for the Chinese nation. It has been closely linked with the fate of the Chinese people and the Chinese nation, and has won one brilliant victory after another, building great historical achievements for the Party and the people.
The Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China was held in Beijing from July 15th to 18th, 2024. The plenary session proposed that we must adhere to the absolute leadership of the Party over the people's army, deeply implement the strategy of reforming and strengthening the military, and provide strong guarantees for achieving the centenary goal of building the military as scheduled and basically realizing the modernization of national defense and the military.
On July 30, 2024, the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China held its 16th collective study on promoting the construction of modern border, sea, and air defense.
New era, new mission, new journey.
As long as you follow the party, you will definitely win
——Listening to the Party's command is the soul that determines the political direction of military construction
My whole life has been devoted to one thing: following the Party and striving for the cause of the Party. Hu Zhengxian, a 106 year old veteran of the Red Army, once followed the Fourth Red Army to climb snow capped mountains and cross grasslands three times. After enduring the life and death test of the Long March, he gradually grew into an excellent communication worker in our army, known as the 'Red Wind Listening'.
As long as we follow the Party, we will definitely win. It is precisely the infinite trust and loyalty to the Party that support millions of Red Army soldiers like Hu Zhengxian to walk out of the arduous Long March, towards the victory of the revolution, and towards a bright future.
Listening to the Party's command is the soul that determines the political direction of military construction.
On the Long March, the Red Army often faced life and death tests: there was a battle almost every day; On average, it takes 365 miles to rest and recuperate; Bombs could fall from above at any time; After the Battle of Xiangjiang, the Central Red Army suffered a sharp decline from 86000 soldiers at the time of departure to over 30000 soldiers, often facing enemies who were ten times their size, chasing and intercepting them.
No matter how great the sacrifice is, it cannot stop us from advancing! "Tang Jin, an old Red Army member of the Red First Front who has been fighting from southern Jiangxi to northern Shaanxi, sighed in an interview with Xinhua News Agency before his birth." Because we have the ideal of the red, because we have the strong leadership of the Party
At the critical moment of life and death, the exemplary role of Communist Party members has been concentrated.
During the Long March, whether it was the brave warriors who forcibly crossed the Dadu River or the heroes who flew to capture the Luding Bridge, they were all composed of Communist Party members and active party members, "said Xu Yan, a professor at the National Defense University.
In daily life, senior commanders chew on tree bark and grass roots like ordinary soldiers. When it comes to fighting, cadres and party members always rush to the front. "Tang Jinxin once recalled that after every battle, the number of casualties among party members often accounted for 25% or even 50% of the total casualties.
With the absolute leadership of the Party, the Red Army has its backbone.
Comrade Mao Zedong once pointed out, "Who led to the victory of the Long March? It was the Communist Party. Without the Communist Party, such a Long March would not have been possible
Over the past 97 years, under the strong leadership of the Party, the People's Army has grown from scratch, from weak to strong, and the flame of ideals and beliefs has been passed down from generation to generation. The genes of the red tradition have been passed down through generations, always taking the Party flag as the banner, the Party's direction as the direction, and the Party's will as the will, resolutely achieving absolute loyalty, absolute purity, and absolute reliability.
This summer, a Red Army Brigade 4 of the 75th Group Army of the Southern Theater Command was connected to a new training mission.
Before the expedition, the officers and soldiers once again came to the honor room to revisit the red story that had been passed down for 88 years——
In July 1936, the predecessor of the 4th Company, the 8th Company of the 274th Regiment of the Red Fourth Front Army, crossed the grassland for the third time and fell into a situation of food shortage. The officers and soldiers had to dig wild vegetables and eat grass roots. 14-year-old soldier Zhou Guangcai took out his leather belt and ate half with his comrades. He clenched the remaining half tightly and tearfully said to his comrades, "Comrades, let's keep it as a souvenir and bring it to Yan'an to meet Chairman Mao
In the subsequent battles, six comrades sacrificed one after another, and only Zhou Guang arrived in Yan'an.
The fundamental principle and system of the Party's absolute leadership over the military originated from the Nanchang Uprising, was based on the Sanwan reorganization, and was established at the Gutian Conference. It is a political characteristic and fundamental advantage that completely distinguishes the People's Army from all old armies.
There was a period when the weakening of the leadership of the Communist Party of China in the People's Liberation Army was prominent. If it was not thoroughly resolved, it would not only affect combat effectiveness, but also affect the major political principle of the Party commanding guns.
——A set of effective fundamental principles and systems have been established for the Party's absolute leadership over the military. The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China upheld the Party's absolute leadership over the people's army, elevating it to a fundamental strategy for upholding and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era. The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China profoundly summarized the significant advantages of the Party's command of the gun, and deployed the adherence to and improvement of the Party's absolute leadership system over the people's army, ensuring that the people's army faithfully fulfills its mission and tasks in the new era, as a separate part of the plenary session decision.
——To fully and thoroughly implement the system of the Chairman of the Central Military Commission as the highest political requirement to be followed and the highest political discipline to be maintained, to improve the system and mechanism for implementing the Chairman of the Central Military Commission's responsibility system, to ensure the implementation of the mechanisms for requesting reports, supervising inspections, and providing information services, and to truly obey President Xi's command, be responsible to President Xi, and reassure President Xi.
——Implement the general requirements of Party building in the new era, implement the organizational line of the Party in the new era, adhere to comprehensive and strict governance of the Party, focus on preparing for war, build a strong organizational system for the People's Army Party, promote the normalization and institutionalization of political training, persist in promoting positive conduct, discipline and anti-corruption, and comprehensively improve the quality of our military's work in strengthening Party leadership and Party building.
……
The Political Work Conference of the Central Military Commission was held in Yan'an, Shaanxi from June 17 to 19, 2024. This conference is a spiritual baptism of looking back on tradition and forging by bathing in fire, a ideological cohesion of cultivating original aspirations and following closely, a political mobilization of unity and struggle, and a significant milestone in the new era and new journey.
The golden star shines on the military flag, and our principle is that the Party commands the gun... "The song" Listening to the Party's Command "echoed throughout the military camps across the country, singing the common voice of all officers and soldiers in the army.
The army is a combat team that exists for the purpose of fighting
——Winning battles is the core, reflecting the fundamental functions of the military and the fundamental direction of military construction
805 steps, the Yalu River Bridge will pass in just over ten minutes. "Recalling the scene when he went to Korea, veteran volunteer soldier Cheng Maoyou said that when he crossed the Yalu River, he never thought of coming back. Every soldier crossing the river is determined to defend the newly established Republic with their lives, treating death as their own
In the War of Resistance Against US Aggression and Aid Korea, which lasted for two years and nine months, the Chinese People's Volunteer Army and the Korean People's Army fought side by side, defeated the United Nations Army led by the United States and won the war.
The Chinese People's Volunteer Army worked closely with the Korean army and people to fight five consecutive battles, including the first battle in Liangshuidong, the fierce battle in Yunshan City, the battle in Qingchuan River, and the battle in Changjin Lake. After that, the Chinese People's Volunteer Army built an iron walled defense position in depth, carried out several offensive campaigns, smashed the "strangulation war", resisted the "bacterial war", and fought bloody battles in Shangganling, creating a magnificent war.
Winning battles is the core, reflecting the fundamental functions of the military and the fundamental direction of military construction.
In different historical periods, the People's Liberation Army has always regarded combat teams as the top priority task, shouldering the sacred mission entrusted by the Party and the people to win, plan for victory, and train for victory, such as "streamlining troops and simplifying administration", "reducing the number of troops by one million", conducting scientific and technological training, and discussing combat effectiveness standards.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, all officers and soldiers of the army have firmly grasped the key to building a strong military by being able to fight and win battles. They have truly grasped practical training and prepared for actual combat, and have been forging ahead through numerous exercises that resemble actual combat.
The military is a combat team that exists for the purpose of fighting. When the Party and the people need it, can our military always adhere to the Party's absolute leadership, be able to pull up and win battles, and can commanders at all levels lead troops and command battles
This question of combat effectiveness is deafening and thought-provoking.
At the beginning of the new year in 2014, a "brainstorming" swept through the military camp. The 'storm eye' is to firmly establish the only fundamental standard of combat effectiveness. From government agencies to grassroots levels, from generals to soldiers, they have all participated in discussions and analysis, deepened their ideological understanding, identified contradictions and problems, and continuously enhanced their awareness of the dangers of ideological warfare and strategic planning. The spiritual motivation for training and fighting has been constantly stimulated, and the willpower for a strong army to win has been constantly consolidated.
The entire army has stood the test of complex situations and severe struggles with firm willpower, flexible strategic strategies, and powerful military actions, resolutely safeguarding national sovereignty, security, and development interests.
——We will unwaveringly adhere to the concept of active defense strategy, enhance the aggressiveness and initiative of military strategic guidance, actively adapt to the transformation of military preparedness, and plan for the preparation and cessation of war, deterrence and actual combat, war action and the use of military force in peacetime as a whole, shape the security situation, contain crisis conflicts, and win local wars.
——Firmly establish combat effectiveness as the only fundamental standard. Persist in taking the improvement of combat effectiveness as the starting point and foothold of all military construction, and use whether it is conducive to improving combat effectiveness to measure and test various work, resolutely eliminate the accumulated problems of peace, and comprehensively improve the ability to prepare for war in the new era.
——According to the principles and requirements of integrating peacetime and wartime, operating normally, specializing in main operations, and being efficient, we will establish a strong joint operational command structure at both the military commission and theater levels. Optimize the joint operation command system, promote reconnaissance and early warning, joint strike, battlefield support, comprehensive support system and capacity building, accelerate the enhancement of joint operation capability and global combat capability.
——Strengthen practical military training, adhere to the principle of leading training through battle, deepen research on war and combat issues, innovate combat concepts and training methods.
——We will focus on building all logistics for the purpose of war, deepen the preparation of military struggle logistics, accelerate the construction of a modern military logistics system and a modern asset management system for the military, and accelerate the high-quality development of modern logistics. Accelerate the construction of a weapon and equipment system that adapts to information warfare and fulfills mission requirements, accelerate the construction of a modern management system for weapon and equipment, strengthen the practical application of weapon and equipment, and truly make equipment live and move.
——Strengthening the cultivation of combat spirit, starting from the requirements of actual combat and facing difficulties with strictness, we will strike the troops, hone the willpower and qualities of commanders and fighters, dare to overcome all difficulties, and dare to overwhelm all enemies.
In the summer season, military camps rise up in waves of training and preparation for war——
Chariots gallop on the grasslands of northern China, giant ships plow waves across the open sea, eagles flap their wings in the clouds of the nine heavens, and long swords unsheathed in the depths of the desert
Summoned to come, able to fight, and victorious in battle. The heroic people's army is wholeheartedly committed to winning and constantly achieving new victories in the journey of building a strong and prosperous army.
A good work style can shape a heroic army, while a loose work style can bring down a victorious army
——Good work style is the guarantee, which relates to the nature, purpose, and essence of the military
In the War of Resistance Against Japan, where mothers sent their children to fight in the East and wives sent their sons to the battlefield, millions of Chinese soldiers believed that their determination to die for their country was not afraid of strong enemies or sacrifices. They fought until the last moment and made an everlasting contribution to the ultimate victory of the Chinese nation.
If it weren't for the old squad leader sacrificing himself to save me, my life would have been long gone, "said Xiang Shouzhi, former commander of the Nanjing Military Region who participated in countless battles and made numerous military achievements, in an interview with Xinhua News Agency before his death
In Yan'an, northern Shaanxi, American journalist Snow was deeply moved by the unwavering ideals, revolutionary optimism, and hardworking style of the Red Army soldiers after coming into contact with them. He concluded that this army possessed the "Eastern magic" to defeat all opponents and claimed that it was the "light of national rejuvenation".
Good work style is a guarantee that relates to the nature, purpose, and essence of the military.
The growth history of a people's army is characterized by arduous struggle throughout.
In the struggle of Jinggangshan, Mao Zedong, Zhu De, and soldiers went down the mountain to pick grain, grow vegetables, and eat red rice and pumpkin soup together, creating a glorious chapter in the red base area.
As a family heirloom of our party and army, hard work and perseverance are important guarantees for the vigorous and prosperous development of the party and military undertakings, and will always be the most brilliant background of the people's army.
The growth and development history of a people's army is a struggle history for the liberation and happiness of the people.
In late October 1927, Mao Zedong, who had blood blisters on his feet but was determined not to sit on a stretcher, announced with a cane that one of the three rules for going to Jinggangshan was: "Do not take a sweet potato from the common people
Everything comes from the people, everything relies on the people, and everything serves the people - the People's Army has been deeply connected to the people and blood ties from victory to victory for 97 years.
——Always remember the sacred duty of carrying guns and fighting for the people, place the people at the highest position in our hearts, carry forward the glorious tradition of the old Red Army, and maintain the political nature of hard work and struggle.
——Take the construction of work style as a fundamental and long-term task for the military, and make great efforts to tackle looseness, dispersion, weakness, and weakness, always maintaining the political nature of the people's army. Continuously deepen the rectification of the "Four Winds", continue to rectify hedonism and extravagance, seize common and recurring problems to deepen rectification, resolutely prevent rebound and resurgence, prevent hidden mutations, and prevent fatigue and war weariness; Placing the rectification of formalism and bureaucracy in a more prominent position, as a key task in improving work style, we will scientifically and accurately target the rectification, and strive for practical results.
——Using iron discipline to promote comprehensive strict governance of the Party and the military, making iron rules powerful and iron discipline effective, ensuring strict discipline throughout the army, and ensuring smooth implementation of government and military orders. Strictly abide by the political discipline and rules of the Party, always be a clear and honest person in politics, and never be a two faced person. Putting discipline and rules at the forefront, utilizing the "four forms" of supervision and discipline, and making efforts to make good use of the first form, to learn from past mistakes and save lives.
——Promote the deepening of the construction of Party conduct and clean governance, as well as the fight against corruption. There must be no hiding place for corrupt elements in the military. Strengthen supervision and supervision around the preparation for war, deepen the rectification and governance of key industries and fields, and focus on the construction of regular work style; Adhere to systematic treatment and addressing both the symptoms and root causes, strengthen institutional construction, deepen coordinated supervision, and comprehensively promote the prevention, prohibition, and avoidance of corruption, creating a new situation for the construction of a clean and honest military conduct and the fight against corruption.
——We must adhere to the Party's organization, combat readiness training, the leadership of officers and soldiers, and the strict implementation of the rule of law at the grassroots level. We must carry forward our fine traditions, strengthen reform and innovation, and comprehensively forge a solid grassroots that listens to the Party and follows the Party, is capable of fighting and winning battles, and has strict laws and regulations and a positive atmosphere.
On the occasion of another birthday, new progress has been made in the construction of the style of the people's army——
From April to July 2024, the whole party will carry out party discipline learning and education. All levels of the military have a strong sense of responsibility and urgency to conscientiously implement the deployment requirements of the Party Central Committee and the Central Military Commission, and promote the orderly and in-depth implementation of Party discipline learning and education.
Through learning and education, all officers and soldiers in the army have become more conscious of learning, understanding, understanding, and observing discipline; After learning and education, all officers and soldiers in the army have become more conscious of enhancing their political, disciplinary, moral, and anti-corruption capabilities, always being loyal, clean, and responsible, and making every effort to fight the battle to achieve the centenary goal of building the army.
The road through Xiongguan is as solid as iron, and now I am stepping forward from scratch. The People's Army, which has gone through a glorious 97 year history, is guided by the Party's goal of building a strong military in the new era, striving to create a new situation of national defense and military modernization, move towards world-class status, achieve new victories, and provide strategic support for realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation!
