After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, we got a unique opportunity. People all over the country are eager to use this little free time to build a peaceful country. Democratic parties and people's organizations also expressed their desire to change the dictatorship of the Kuomintang.
However, Kuomintang reactionaries don't think so. They still adhere to the policy of dictatorship and civil war, and even openly tear up the previously formulated peaceful state-building agreement. Not only that, they also constantly expanded the scale of their attack on the liberated areas. They are treacherous and want to bring China back to that humiliating semi-colonial and semi-feudal country.
At this important historical turning point, Chairman Mao made a scientific judgment on the future of China's revolution with the deep vision of a strategist and insight into the world.
1in August, 945, Chairman Mao warned people in the report "The Current Situation after War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's Victory and Our Policy" made at the Yan 'an cadre meeting that they should be prepared to deal with the civil war launched by the Kuomintang and fight tit-for-tat with Chiang Kai-shek. What a superb strategic vision this is. When the people of the whole country were still in the dark about Chiang Kai-shek's "fake peace", Chairman Mao pointedly pointed out what was bound to happen in the future.
Later, the article "Chiang Kai-shek is Inciting Civil War" was published, which made the people of the whole country more alert to Chiang Kai-shek. While working hard to realize the policy of peaceful founding of the country, Chairman Mao also thoroughly exposed the plot of Chiang Kai-shek's dictatorial civil war. Starting from the overall strategy, he formulated the correct military strategic policy, which enabled Chiang Kai-shek to win favorable political opportunity and military initiative in Chongqing negotiations, made fruitful political, organizational and military preparations in advance, and created a favorable strategic situation for the Great Liberation War.
10 10/2 1 day, after Chairman Mao returned to Yan 'an from Chongqing, he immediately made strategic arrangements to stop and cope with the counter-revolutionary civil war launched by Chiang Kai-shek. He pointed out that only by obtaining a favorable military posture can Chiang Kai-shek be forced to give up his attempt to destroy the liberated areas and create a peaceful situation. He determined the policy of "getting out of the way and occupying the hatchback" and "defending to the south and developing to the north", pushed1.20 thousand troops into the northeast, set out to create the northeast base area, and at the same time evacuated the troops in the liberated areas south of the Yangtze River to Jiangbei for strategic assembly.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the total strength of our army has grown to 65.438+0.4 million, and the population of the liberated areas has reached 65.438+0 billion, which can be said to have the conditions for a large-scale regular war with the Kuomintang. In order to adapt to the development of the new situation, the first and second Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Field Army, the Central China Field Army and the Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan Military Region were quickly established in the autumn and winter of 1945, and the directional transformation from guerrilla warfare to mobile warfare was quickly completed in the organization.
The above-mentioned troops effectively attacked the large-scale attacks launched by the Kuomintang in self-defense operations. In February, 65438, Chairman Mao drafted "Working Guidelines for Liberated Areas" 1946, calling for "key training in the field ... between battles in the liberated areas." In accordance with the instructions of Chairman Mao and the Central Committee, the army launched a large-scale training campaign and strengthened the technical equipment construction of the army. These effective measures laid a very favorable foundation for a large-scale regular war with Chiang Kai-shek.
1946 In late June, Chiang Kai-shek launched an all-out attack on the liberated areas, and the civil war broke out. At the turning point of history, Chairman Mao led the soldiers and civilians in the liberated areas to make preparations in all aspects, which made Chiang Kai-shek's ambition of destroying our army in three to six months go bankrupt continuously.
With the sound of millions of mighty men crossing the Yangtze River, the Chiang family dynasty fell. The birth of New China ushered in a new era in the history of China.
However, the victory did not make Chairman Mao go to his head. He felt that we were faced with a more arduous task than fighting. The end of the revolutionary war marks a new historical period in which cities lead villages. This historical turning point marks the shift of the focus of work.
At the Second Plenary Session of the Seventh CPC Central Committee, Chairman Mao pointed out. "From now on, the period from the city leading the countryside to the city leading the countryside has begun, and the focus of the party's work has shifted from the countryside to the city." Chairman Mao also stressed that urban work should learn political struggle, economic struggle, cultural struggle and diplomatic struggle, and also carry out large-scale national economic recovery and economic construction.
At the turning point of the revolution, Chairman Mao politically raised the issue of establishing a new regime in time. He pointed out that the nature of this regime is the people's democratic dictatorship based on the alliance of workers and peasants, and its composition is a Coalition government, with the participation of all parties, factions and social celebrities. With the victory of China's revolutionary war, the time and conditions for establishing People's Republic of China (PRC) are ripe. From September 265438 to September 30, 265438, China People's Political Consultative Conference was held in Beijing, which formulated the Common Program, announced and elected People's Republic of China (PRC).
Facing the turning point of the revolution, Chairman Mao also ideologically warned the whole party to "get rid of the bad style and maintain the fine style", deeply realized that "China's revolution was great, but the journey after the revolution was longer and the work was bigger and more arduous", and demanded that we must maintain the style of modesty, prudence, hard struggle and be alert to the party's pride, heroism and quick success.
Chairman Mao moved the central organ and the headquarters of the People's Liberation Army from Xibaipo to Beijing, which was vividly called "going to Beijing to catch the exam", and he wanted to "get a good grade in the exam" and "never be Li Zicheng".
All these have greatly aroused the fighting spirit of the whole party and made political, ideological and organizational preparations for the smooth realization of this turning point.
During this period, Chairman Mao's people successfully realized the transformation from new democracy to socialism, basically realized the socialist transformation of the means of production, thus basically eliminated the exploitation system and the exploiting class, and made the great eastern country with a quarter of the world's population enter the socialist society. This great victory is an important milestone.
