The Long March And The Construction Of The Communist Party Of China

The Long March,led by the Communist Party of China(abbreviated to the CPC)between October 1934 and October 1936,is the great and magnificent feat that shocked the world.The long march,which is extremely hard and bitter,not only tempered the CPC and the Red Army in a special way,but also promoted the Party building and achieved a historic leap.The test and exercise of the Long March to the CPC was extremely severe,which caused great irreversible losses to the CPC and the Red Army,and make the revolution led by the CPC suffered setbacks and twists.As to the military aspect,in the early days of the Long March of the Red Army,the military encirclement,pursuit,obstruction and interception of Kuomintang caused the disastrous defeat of the Xiangjiang Campaign.In addition,the wide range of battles greatly consumed the main force of Central Red Army,which was more than 86 thousand during the departure but was sharply reduced to 7 thousand when reached Shanbei.Besides,when the three major armies joined forces with each other,the Second Front Army also left only more than 14 thousand people and the Forth Front Army suffered heavy loss and only more than 42 thousand people left.The number of the three major Red Army forces added up to less than the number of the Central Red Army in the early period of the Long March.In the field of natural environmental barriers,the CPC and the Red Army have experienced unprecedented difficulties.In terms of inner struggle of CPC,the Party experienced the danger of “left” dogmatism and Zhang Guotao’s warlordism and separatism,which also caused great harm to the Party and the Red Army.At the same time,the Party and the Red Army have been greatly promoted in all directions,and the Party’s building has been advanced and developed.As to the organization building,the mature collective leadership of the CPC Central Committee,represented by Mao Zedong,has been formed,and the central leadership appeared in a new atmosphere and an unprecedented new trend;the leadership position of Mao Zedong in the CPC Central Committee has been established and consolidated,which make the Party’s revolutionary cause take a turn for the better and be out of danger;the spirit of democracy in the Party was carried forward;the functions of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee were brought into full play;the cadres policy of the Party was correctly persisted and used;the Party’s absolute leadership over the army was restored and worked at full capacity.On the political line,the “left” dogmatism made a great loss to the Party and the Red Army,and after a complicated struggle,the CPC ended the “left” dogmatism political line at the Zunyi Conference;The United Front work got a qualitative leap,which paid attention to the upper level and wide range.Wayaobu Conference changed the Party’s political line and laid a firm political foundation for the final victory of the Party.In terms of ideological line,after correcting the erroneous leadership of “left” dogmatism,the ideological line of seeking truth from facts has become the guiding policy-making ideology of the CPC Central Committee and played its valuable role in boosting the victory of the Long March.In the building of the style of work,the political superiority of the party’s mass line has been fully brought into play;the style of inner-party criticism and self-criticism was restored and carried forward;the unity of the Party and the Red Army were unprecedented,and the spirit of unity was inherited,thus the difficulties encountered in the Long March were overcome.In the image shaping,the Communist Party of China shows the confidence of good spirit and ideal faith in the long march.In the image shaping,the CPC showed the confidence of good spirit and ideal faith in the Long March,and resolutely advocated resistance against Japan.In addition,the Party’s inside and outside propaganda and the dissemination of the domestic and foreign have molded the good image of the Party,so as to attract more people to uphold,support,help and participate in the Party.By studying the Long March and the Party,we can see that the Long March tested the Party,exercised the Party and made the Party mature.The Long March has promoted the Party building.In turn,the Party building has ensured the smooth completion of the Long March,and the victory of the Long March was an important achievement of the Party building.This is the deeper significance of the Long March.The Long March made the CPC move from failure to victory,which provided a good opportunity for the Party building.The role of the Party building has been brought into play in the Long March,which had great significance to and profound impact on the CPC,the army and the country.“Use history to provide reference for today,offer consultations to the government and educate the people.” The purposes of studying the Long March of the Red Army led by the CPC is to make the CPC draw lessons from the historical experience and grasp the law of historical development when carrying out the current and future Party building by exploring the history of the Party building,so that the historical basis and theoretical support for the Party building can be provided under the new era and new situation.
