Welcoming the 100th anniversary of the founding of the army with a new political outlook
2026-04-13
Whenever there is a major historical juncture or stage, our party and military always need to study and solve the major issue of political military building, in order to adapt to new struggles and achieve new victories. Carry out ideological rectification, deepen political training, strengthen the revolutionary forging of our military cadre team, always maintain the purity and glory of the People's Army, and welcome the 100th anniversary of the founding of the army with a new political outlook. ”At the opening ceremony of the training course for senior cadres in the entire army, President Xi Jinping profoundly expounded on the major theoretical and practical issues of building a strong people's army from an ideological and political perspective. He put forward clear requirements for giving full play to the unique advantages of political construction in the new journey, forging a loyal, clean and responsible senior cadre team, and achieving the centenary goal of building the army as scheduled. This has a high strategic, profound theoretical, distinctive era and scientific guidance, which will surely inspire and motivate senior cadres in the entire army to lead by example, set a good example, and drive officers and soldiers to unite and overcome difficulties. With unprecedented unity under new historical conditions, it will write a new chapter of building a strong army that is worthy of revolutionary predecessors, a century old foundation, and a great era. Train and forge a new style, seize the opportunity to move forward and strengthen the army. The Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China has made new arrangements for achieving the centenary goal of building the military as scheduled and promoting the modernization of national defense and the military with high quality. To achieve the centenary goal of building the military as scheduled is the will of the Party, the expectation of the people, the important task of the times that the people's army must shoulder, and the historical answer sheet that must be handed over. 99 years ago, the Nanchang Uprising announced the birth of the People's Army with a gunshot. Now, our heroic people's army led by the Party is about to embark on a glorious century long journey. What kind of appearance and achievements should we use to comfort the revolutionary predecessors who sacrificed and dedicated themselves to creating and developing this heroic army? The Party and the people are full of expectations. Our army is an armed group that carries out the political tasks of the Party. To build the army, we must look at it politically, focus on it politically, and build it politically. Political military building is the unique advantage and lifeline of our party and army, as well as an important tool to achieve the centenary goal of building the military and accelerate the construction of the people's army into a world-class military. With political invincibility, there can be military invincibility. Without the foundation of political military building, all military building practices are like water without a source and wood without a foundation. Senior cadres must persistently use Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era to solidify their hearts and souls, deepen Xi Jinping's ideological armament for strengthening the military, comprehensively implement the new era's political strategy for building the military, strengthen the political advantage of the Party's absolute leadership over the people's army, and effectively root the maintenance of the core and obedience to the Party's command in the minds of officers and soldiers, and implement it in all practices of our military modernization construction. We must always resolutely obey President Xi's command, be responsible to President Xi, and reassure President Xi. Political training is a unique governance method of our army, an important part of achieving the established task of building a strong military, and a baptism and tempering of the people's army from the inside out. The deeper the political training, the purer the people's army, and the more confident a strong army will be in winning battles. At all levels, we must adhere to placing political training in a prominent position in the overall work, maintain strict and practical efforts, promote political training to go deeper and more practical, deepen the comprehensive strict governance of the Party and the military, persist in promoting positive conduct, discipline and anti-corruption, forge a strong party organization with firm political determination and excellent capabilities, and forge a high-quality cadre team that is loyal, clean, responsible and capable of fulfilling the important task of building a strong military. Senior cadres should carry forward the spirit of thorough self revolution, take the lead in strengthening ideological transformation and political forging, with an attitude of digging deep into the roots and touching the soul, comprehensively identify problems and accumulated shortcomings, correct erroneous cognition, behavioral deviations, and bad behavior, strictly enforce political discipline and rules, thoroughly eliminate the influence of corruption, vigorously promote the glorious traditions and excellent style of our party and army, and march towards the front line of war and defense with a new style, striving to build a strong military and win a new journey. Dedicated to extraordinary causes requires extraordinary spirit. At present, the centenary of building a strong military is the time when "success is achieved, but the difficulties are the most severe". It is even more necessary for us to have an unyielding fighting attitude and a never slackening spirit, to charge forward and do practical work, bravely shoulder heavy burdens, and work hard. In the face of the "Loushan Pass" and "Lazikou" on the new journey, senior cadres should deeply understand the decisive significance of the "two consolidations", enhance the "four consciousnesses", strengthen the "four confidences", and achieve the "two safeguards", implement the responsibility system of the Chairman of the Central Military Commission, establish and practice the correct political performance concept, and lead the team in work and cause with practical actions of faith, pragmatism, responsibility, and self-discipline. They should stimulate the spiritual state of officers and soldiers to the maximum extent possible, gather their enterprising strength, always maintain the same strength, revolutionary enthusiasm, and fighting spirit as during the revolutionary war period, resolutely implement the major decisions and deployments of the Party Central Committee, the Central Military Commission, and President Xi Jinping, and strive to achieve the centenary goal of building the military. The grand goal of building a world-class military is to move forward courageously. (New Society)
