Love my people and my army.
In recent days, affected by extreme rainfall, serious floods and geological disasters have occurred in some parts of China. At a critical juncture, officers and men of the People’s Liberation Army, the Armed Police Force and militia reservists resolutely implemented the spirit of the important instructions of the Supreme Leader General Secretary, moved at the command, and fought continuously, making every effort to search and rescue those who lost contact and were trapped, and making every effort to protect people’s lives and property.
The army and the people unite as one, and see who can be enemies in the world.
This year marks the 80th anniversary of Yan ‘an Double Support Movement. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed that it is necessary to carry forward the glorious tradition of loving the government and the people and supporting the army as the superior, consolidate and develop the unity of the military, the government and the people in the new era, create a strong atmosphere of caring for, loving, building and defending national defense in the whole society, and gather strong forces for consolidating and improving the strategic system and capabilities of an integrated country and promoting a strong country and a strong army.
The earnest entrustment reflects the ardent expectations of the army commander for the people’s soldiers and is full of the sincere feelings of the people’s leaders for the people.
The hands of time were set back to January 1991. Since the founding of New China, the first national conference on "Double Support" was held in Fuzhou, Fujian. The supreme leader comrade who was then secretary of Fuzhou Municipal Party Committee wrote a poem "Seven Laws of Military and Civil Affairs" to congratulate him: "Holding Yun He to wash the sky, the mountains and waters in Fujian are new. Xiaomei is spitting golden plums, and the old banyan is first worried about jasper. You control the south wind and it is warm in winter, and I feel the same when I am near the East China Sea. It is rare to celebrate the city and love my people and my army. "
The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader once said emotionally that this seven laws were written to express the people’s army’s love for the people and the people’s army’s love for fish and water.
"It is necessary to strengthen the unity of the military, the government and the people, and constantly write a new chapter in the era of military and civilian fish and water."
"Under the new situation, the double support work can only be strengthened and cannot be weakened."
… … … …
At the beginning, my heart is like a rock, and my mind is here. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader personally attended the major activities of "Double Support" and made a series of important expositions, which pointed out the way forward and provided fundamental follow-up for doing a good job in the work of "Double Support" in the new era.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, the military and civilian levels have done a good job in the new era of "double support" in an in-depth and down-to-earth manner, with a new chapter of the era in which the military, the government, the army and the people are united and forge ahead, and have gathered strong strength to realize the Chinese dream of strengthening the military.
For the people, relying on the people and serving the people — —
The people’s army always shares the same breath, destiny and heart to heart with the people.
"Please rest assured that we are coming and everyone is safe!" On April 26th, local time, the China Navy guided missile destroyer Nanning and the comprehensive supply ship Weishanhu maneuvered more than 630 nautical miles at high speed overnight, and rushed from the Gulf of Aden to Sudan, where the security situation continued to deteriorate, to carry out an emergency evacuation mission and fully protect the lives and property of China personnel in Sudan.
"I am so touched to see the China People’s Liberation Army!" A realistic version of "Wan Li’s Return" brought tears to the eyes of compatriots overseas, waving the five-star red flag in their hands.
The Sudanese emergency evacuation mission is the third time that the China Navy has sent warships to carry out overseas evacuation missions after the Libyan evacuation in 2011 and the Yemeni evacuation in 2015. The officers and men vacated most of the living quarters and took out their own bedding, just to let the evacuees out of danger sleep peacefully.
Take your hand and go home with the fastest and most powerful action. The people’s army has proved with practical actions that no matter where our compatriots are, the people’s soldiers will always guard them.
"The people’s army has always breathed with the people, shared a common destiny, and worked for the people completely and thoroughly. Where there are enemies and dangers, there are people’s soldiers." On August 1, 2017, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader delivered an important speech at the celebration of the 90th anniversary of the founding of the China People’s Liberation Army, which penetrated history and inspired the future.
"Good eight company, the world. Why? Strong will. For the people, decades. Resist corrosion and never touch … …” On the sinking square of Nanjing Road in Shanghai, a bronze embossed wall is engraved with Ode to Eight Lian written by Comrade Mao Zedong.
In 1949, on the eve of the founding of New China, the 3rd Battalion and 8th Company of the former Shanghai Guard Corps entered Nanjing Road, the most prosperous area in Shanghai. They live in a busy city, spotless, love the people, help others, and are praised by the masses. In April 1963, the Ministry of National Defense awarded the 3rd Battalion Eight Company the honorary title of "Good Eight Company on Nanjing Road".
Decades have passed, and the original heart of the officers and men serving the people wholeheartedly has not faded. In 1982, the 10th Squadron of the Fourth Detachment of the Armed Police Shanghai Corps took over the service of "Good Eight Company on Nanjing Road" and relayed to be the guardian of the people’s better life.
No.76, Xingye Road, Shanghai, the first meeting place of the Communist Party of China with blue bricks and tiles and red windows, is particularly eye-catching in modern urban buildings, attracting many visitors to pay their respects.
"Once the Communist Party of China (CPC) was born, he made it his initial mission to seek happiness for the people of China and rejuvenation for the Chinese nation … …” At the meeting site, Private Lin Zeyao, the 10th Squadron of the 4th detachment of Shanghai Armed Police Corps, was explaining to the visitors.
Since 1998, officers and men of the 10th Squadron have used weekends and holidays to explain the history of the Party at the site of the First Congress of the Communist Party of China, which is adjacent to the station, for a total of more than 76,000 times. In March, 2022, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader wrote back to all officers and men of the 10th Squadron, encouraging them to "consolidate and expand the achievements of study and education on party history, consciously carry forward the great spirit of party building, and be a good new era ‘ Sentinel under neon lights ’ Always be a loyal guardian of the party and the people. "
Talk and entrust, inspiring people. Yang Zenan, the instructor of the Tenth Squadron, took the volunteer lecturers of the Squadron to carefully consult historical materials, and through vivid stories of the party history, drove more young people to hold high the torch of faith and be good red successors.
"This year is ‘ Good eight companies on Nanjing Road ’ The 60th anniversary of naming. We will certainly inherit and carry forward the fine tradition of eight companies supporting the government and loving the people, and be a good new era ‘ Sentinel under neon lights ’ ！” The words of Wang Kairui, the squad leader of the "Leifeng Class" of the Tenth Squadron, expressed the voices of officers and men.
The word "people" is extremely important. There are silent guards when the years are quiet, and there are also times of crisis to stand up.
"In order to protect people’s lives and safety, we can do anything" and "always put people’s lives and health first" … … The important speech of the Supreme Leader General Secretary profoundly explained the lofty concept of people first and life first.
Where the commander-in-chief is, where the officers and men are going.
At the beginning of 2020, an epidemic broke out in COVID-19. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader issued a "charge order" to the people’s army to contribute to winning the prevention and control of epidemic situation, stressing that the whole army should bear in mind the purpose of the people’s army under the unified command of the CPC Central Committee and the Central Military Commission, take up heavy burdens and fight hard, and actively support local epidemic prevention and control.
Military orders are like mountains. On New Year’s Eve, 450 military medical staff from three medical teams drawn from PLA Army Medical University, Naval Medical University and Air Force Medical University bid farewell to their families and flew to Wuhan by military plane.
The people’s army, together with the people of the whole country, embodies the majestic power of uniting and overcoming the difficulties together, and interprets the unchanging military soul of the people’s army.
On the shore of Zhiyin Lake, a cured patient walked out of Huoshenshan Hospital and bowed to the military doctor Zhao Yuying and his comrades-in-arms who saw him off: "Thanks to the People’s Liberation Army for risking their lives to save me, because of you, I am more confident to overcome the disease!"
For the people, rely on the people and serve the people. Holding the people’s interests above their heads, this gesture of the people’s soldiers is engraved in the memory of a people and a city.
"All staff keep in mind the purpose of our army, always insist that people’s interests are above everything else, and put people’s life safety and physical health first, which shows the political character of people’s soldiers being loyal to the party and the people." "Always regard the epidemic as an order, come at the call, be able to fight and win the war, and come forward in times of crisis, which shows the fearless revolutionary spirit of our army, and adds luster to party flag and the military flag" & … The chairman of the Supreme Leader signed a general order to reward all the personnel of the army who carried out the task of epidemic prevention and control, so as to inspire fighting spirit and morale.
Victory is a firm commitment of the people’s army; Charge is the eternal gesture of the people’s army. Whether in the battlefield of bonfire and smoke, or in the front line of dangerous rescue, the people’s army won one fierce battle after another, overcame one difficulty after another, and wrote down immortal feats that will shine in history.
On April 20, 2013, an earthquake of magnitude 7.0 occurred in Lushan, Sichuan, which shook the ground and caused houses to collapse. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made important instructions that all disaster relief units should carry forward the spirit that our army can fight and win the battle, spare no efforts to rescue the trapped people, rescue the wounded, make efforts to prevent secondary disasters, and actively cooperate with local authorities to do a good job in resettlement of the affected people and social stability in the disaster areas.
In July 2016, the flood situation in many parts of the country was severe and the task of flood control and disaster relief was arduous. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made important instructions that the Central Military Commission should implement the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee, command the relevant units of the People’s Liberation Army and the Armed Police to immediately go to the front line of flood control and disaster relief according to the new flood situation and disaster relief needs, carry forward the glorious tradition that our army can fight tough battles, give play to the role of commandos, vigorously support local governments in flood control and disaster relief work, and make contributions to ensuring the safety of people’s lives and property and restoring normal production and living order.
The feat of retrograde expeditions again and again, the shocking charge, and the heroic attitude of sticking to the battle position, where there is danger, there are people’s soldiers! From fighting SARS, preventing and controlling COVID-19 epidemic, to fighting floods and earthquake rescue … … The people’s soldiers are heading for danger, fighting side by side with the people and uniting as one. They have proved time and time again that the people’s army is worthy of being an army led by the party and an iron wall for defending the country and protecting the people.
"It is necessary to take supporting local economic construction as an important task, and do a good job in helping the poor, helping students to develop education, supporting medical care, and supporting the construction of new countryside." General Secretary of the Supreme Leader takes the safety of the masses in mind at all times, and demands that the whole army take practical actions to benefit the people.
On December 29th, 2012, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader braved the severe cold and came to a national poverty-stricken county located at the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain — — Fuping County, Baoding City, Hebei Province, visited the needy people through the snow. Since then, a magnificent anti-poverty struggle has spread in China.
The whole army resolutely implemented the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee, the Central Military Commission and the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader, actively participated in the action of getting rid of poverty, and played a new chapter in the era when the army and the people were in deep water.
Promote accurate poverty alleviation, highlighting old revolutionary areas, ethnic areas, border areas and contiguous destitute areas; Extensively carry out mutual learning, mutual help and mutual promotion activities of grass-roots party organizations in military and local areas, and recommend retired soldiers to hold relevant positions; Promote education to help the poor and build more than 3,900 primary and secondary schools … … The whole army has helped 4,100 poverty-stricken villages, 293,000 poor households and 924,000 poor people in poverty-stricken areas, which has become an important force in the special battlefield of poverty alleviation.
In the special exhibition hall of "the warmth of half a quilt" in Rucheng County, Hunan Province, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader said with emotion: "Our army is the people’s team, and the feelings of communist party people and ordinary people are the feelings of sharing a quilt."
At the celebration of the 90th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Liberation Army in China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized: "To promote the cause of strengthening the army, we must adhere to the fundamental purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly and always be a soldier trusted, supported and loved by the people."
Dream of a new era and stride for a new journey. The vast number of officers and men firmly stated that they must always maintain the nature, purpose and true colors of the people’s army, bear in mind the sacred duty of carrying guns and fighting for the people, keep pace with the development of the cause of the party and the people, and always be the defenders of the people’s interests, providing strong strategic support for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and making new contributions to the party and the people.
Respect the military profession, safeguard the military status and safeguard the rights and interests of military personnel — —
Whoever puts the people in mind, the people will put them in mind.
Baota shan is majestic, rolling along the river.
Visitors from all directions are in an endless stream. In the Revolutionary Memorial Hall, in Zaoyuan Cave, and in Yang Jialing, I browsed, listened, touched and pondered.
In the Revolutionary Memorial Hall of the Northwest Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, Luo Yu, an interpreter of the women’s militia company, stood in front of an oil painting "Iron Wall" in the exhibition hall, telling visitors the touching story of the people in northern Shaanxi enthusiastically supporting the front and the flesh and blood connection between the army and the people.
"After the Party Central Committee and the Red Army settled in Yan ‘an, the conditions were very difficult because of the enemy’s military encirclement and economic blockade. Yan’ an military and civilians responded positively to Comrade Mao Zedong’s ‘ Do it yourself and have plenty of food and clothing ’ Called for and launched a large-scale production movement in full swing, which strongly supported the anti-Japanese front. " Less than a week after the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China closed, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader led the new CPC The Politburo Standing Committee (PSC), who made a special trip from Beijing to Yan ‘an, Shaanxi Province, to pay tribute to the revolutionary memorial site in Yan ‘an and relive the glorious years of the CPC Central Committee in Yan ‘an during the revolutionary war.
"The last handful of rice, used to do stores. The last foot of cloth is used to make military uniforms. The last old cotton-padded jacket was covered on the stretcher. The last flesh and blood was sent to the battlefield. " This ballad, which was widely sung in that year, sang the deep love of the people for their children during the revolutionary war years.
Whoever puts the people in mind, the people put them in mind. In times of peace, Party committees and governments at all levels closely serve to train troops and prepare for war, take the initiative to care for and support army building, vigorously support national defense and army reform, and vigorously promote the high-quality development of "double support" work.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, when the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader went to the grassroots level for investigation, he often went to the local troops to have a look. Step on the border, take the Gobi, enter the class, and watch the post … … The warmth and coldness of the officers and men at the grass-roots level has always been the deep concern of the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader.
The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader once told his heart: "I have an indissoluble bond with the army and have deep feelings for the army. Since I was a child, I have received more education in the history of our army, witnessed the elegance of many older generation leaders of our army, and formed sincere feelings for the army since childhood. "
Eight Fujian in midsummer, the mountains and seas are clear. In 2014, on August 1st, a festival shared by the army and the people, the Supreme Leader General Secretary specially invited 11 model representatives from different positions to the reserve antiaircraft artillery division to express heartfelt thanks and sincere greetings to the comrades who have long cared for and supported the national defense construction and contributed to the double support work. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed: "Local party committees, governments and the broad masses of the people should take it as their unshirkable responsibility to support army building and do more good deeds and practical things for the army."
Heart of officers and men, deep affection. During his work in Fujian, the supreme leader comrades worked hard to help the troops stationed in Fujian solve key and difficult problems and relieve the worries of the officers and men.
In downtown Fuzhou, there is a lot of traffic on Jiangcuo Road. This two-way four-lane road starts from Fufei Road in the east, reaches Wufengshan Mingju Community in the west, and passes through the 73121 army camp in the middle, which is one of the main passages leading to the outside of the camp.
"In the past, it was a muddy country road. The combat readiness was faced with the difficulties of narrow roads and difficult driving, but it could not be repaired due to insufficient funds." Zhu Guangquan, the former commander of Unit 73121, recalled that in November 1992, when the supreme leader comrade, then secretary of Fuzhou Municipal Party Committee, learned about the actual difficulties of the unit, he immediately decided to help the unit raise funds and build Jiangcuo Road.
Only after more than 40 days of intense construction, an important passage with a total length of 2.5 kilometers — — Jiangcuo Road was officially opened to traffic on New Year’s Day in 1993. Since then, the emergency dispatch time of troops has been greatly shortened.
The supreme leader comrades fully support the major events related to the construction of the combat effectiveness of the troops; The supreme leader comrades handle the "scratching their heads" that soldiers are concerned about, such as the settlement of their families and the enrollment of their children. At that time, the officers and men of the troops stationed in Rong cordially praised the Supreme Leader as the "secretary of supporting the army".
Entering a new era, the work of "double support" has the same initial intention, a new mechanism and a higher position.
"I feel very kind to see you, because I am also a military cadre." "Demobilized cadres are valuable assets of the party and the country, and we should pay more attention to them and cherish them." On May 27, 2014, when meeting with the commended representatives of the Sixth National Military Transfer Commendation Conference, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader said emotionally.
Hot words and deep care contain the deep feelings of the Supreme Leader General Secretary for retired soldiers, which makes thousands of retired soldiers excited.
On October 18, 2017, the solemn Great Hall of the People and the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China were grandly held. In his report, the Supreme Leader General Secretary announced the establishment of a management and guarantee institution for retired military personnel.
On March 12, 2018, when attending the plenary session of the delegation of the People’s Liberation Army and the Armed Police Force at the First Session of the 13th National People’s Congress, the words of the Supreme Leader General Secretary hit the floor: "It is of great significance to set up a management and security institution for retired soldiers to better serve them and make them a respected profession in the whole society. It is necessary to do good things well."
On April 16, 2018, the Department of Veterans Affairs was established, responsible for the ideological and political work, transfer and resettlement, service management, treatment guarantee and other work of retired soldiers, and organized and guided the work of supporting the army and giving priority to the family. From the state to the provinces, cities and counties, the "double support" working institutions at all levels have been continuously improved, forming a good situation of mutual support and United struggle between the military and the land, and "making military personnel a respected profession of the whole society" has become a social consensus.
With this historic step, the work of "double support" in the new era has entered a new stage of development.
The rule of law guarantee of double support is more perfect — — In 2021, the Law on the Protection of Retired Soldiers in People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Law on the Protection of Soldiers’ Status and Rights and Interests in People’s Republic of China (PRC) came into force, which clarified the status of soldiers, safeguarded their honor, guaranteed their treatment and gave preferential treatment to their families in legal form, responding to the expectations of officers and men.
The measures of double support are more pragmatic — — Efforts will be made to solve the problems of the placement and development of officers and men in the army, the employment of their families and the education of their children, broaden the "back road", consolidate the "backyard" and support the "future generations." In recent years, the country has received and resettled more than 300,000 demobilized military cadres and 140,000 retired soldiers who meet the resettlement conditions, handled more than 70,000 family members with the army, and coordinated more than 400,000 military children to enter the park and receive compulsory education.
The social participation of double support is more prominent — — At present, there are more than 100,000 social organizations supporting the armed forces, more than 300,000 enterprises and institutions, and more than 30,000 streets and communities are working together with grassroots units of the armed forces, and social participation is increasingly extensive and in-depth.
The military and the local governments work together to promote the honor incentives and rights protection of military families, care for the military with enthusiasm, solve the difficulties of military families, and let the officers and men feel the warmth of the organization and the weight of military uniforms.
General Secretary of the Supreme Leader cares for the old Red Army, veterans and families of martyrs, and always misses them.
In October 2014, in Gutian Town, Shanghang County, Fujian Province, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader invited 10 representatives of the old Red Army, families of martyrs and "old underground party member, old guerrillas, old traffic policemen, old joint households and old Soviet area township cadres" to Gutian party member Cadre Education Base to have a cordial discussion with them and hold hands with old comrades to be caring and attentive.
On July 26, 2019, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader met with all representatives of the National Veterans Work Conference. Seeing the 94-year-old hero Zhang Fuqing, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader leaned down, clasped the old man’s hand with both hands, had a cordial conversation with him and extended sincere greetings.
On August 16, 2022, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed during his inspection tour in Liaoning that party committees and governments at all levels should care for veteran comrades and relatives of revolutionary martyrs, so that veteran comrades can enjoy a happy old age and relatives of martyrs can appreciate the care and warmth of the party.
… … … …
The handsome man who strives for victory first loves the soldiers. The party’s core, people’s leaders and army commanders personally demonstrated, which aroused the upsurge of loving and supporting the army in the whole party and society.
In Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, active and retired military personnel can enjoy services such as green access, registration priority and treatment priority in 31 Chongjun volunteer designated hospitals such as Zhejiang Xiaoshan Hospital and Hangzhou Stomatological Hospital by scanning and highlighting codes.
In Changchun City, Jilin Province, for 10 years in a row, we carried out the campaign of "caring for the officers and men stationed in the army and caring for the revolutionary heroes", listened attentively to the wishes of veterans, actively solved practical problems for the officers and men stationed in the army, and promoted the socialized service of supporting the army to blossom in an all-round way;
In Fuzhou, Fujian Province, we kept a close eye on the urgent need for troops to fight and reform, tried every means to do practical things and solve difficult problems for resident troops, held more than 1,270 coordination meetings between military and land, and coordinated and solved more than 670 problems such as the renovation of hydropower facilities and the relocation of high-voltage lines in military camps;
… … … …
In the north and south of the river, all over the country, a practical measure full of temperature has made deep feelings and warmth flow in the hearts of the majority of military families and retired soldiers.
People’s will, people’s will, and people’s strength — —
Unity between the army and the people, bringing together a strong country and a strong army.
"In the past two years, more than 1,000 letters have closely linked the hearts of Jianghuai students and officers and men in the snowy plateau!" Zhao Chao, a first-class staff sergeant of a regiment in Xinjiang Military Region, said.
Their story begins in the spring two years ago. After a lecture on the heroes of defending the country and defending the border, students from a primary school in Anqing, Anhui Province wrote down their feelings on stationery and sent them to the officers and men of the Xinjiang Military Region. "Teachers often tell us that those who are loyal to the motherland and the people are the bravest people … …” After receiving the letter, Zhao Chao slowly unfolded the writing paper, and the neat handwriting came into view. Reading the letters of teenagers, officers and men felt a warm current in their hearts. The mountains and rivers are separated, the army and the people are United, and the same feelings of home and country are surging.
The land of Inner Mongolia is full of green hills and verdant grass. On June 7th this year, when investigating the situation of border control and the construction of border guards in Inner Mongolia, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed: "Border guards and soldiers are very hard. All levels should pay attention to the warmth and coldness of officers and soldiers, take the initiative to rely on them to solve practical difficulties, and ensure that all aspects are in place."
In recent years, the National Double Support Office has regularly deployed and carried out the activities of "Love for Border and Coastal Defence Officers and Soldiers" and "Six Deliveries", organized special condolences for the Spring Festival for three consecutive years, and sent the local party committees and governments and the people’s care and warmth to the border and coastal defence forces and frontline officers and soldiers, which effectively inspired officers and soldiers to defend the country and defend the border. Before the Spring Festival this year, more than 200,000 cadres of party and government organs, teachers and students in primary and secondary schools, and people in rural communities in 167 national model cities (counties) in 18 provinces actively participated, sending 73,000 holiday packages and more than 60,000 condolence letters to officers and men in border and coastal defense, which became the epitome of the extensive participation of cadres and people everywhere in the double support work.
"It is necessary to strengthen national defense education and enhance the national defense concept of the whole people, so that caring for, loving, building and defending national defense becomes the ideological consensus and conscious action of the whole society."
"Our army is the people’s army and our national defense is the national defense of the whole people. We must strengthen the national defense education of the whole people, consolidate the unity of the military, the government and the people, and unite powerful forces to realize the Chinese dream of strengthening the military! "
National defense education is related to the long-term and overall situation. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader is far-sighted and profound.
More than 3,000 party schools and administrative colleges offer national defense education courses, making it a conscious action of leading cadres at all levels to learn national defense knowledge and fulfill national defense obligations; Every year, tens of millions of college and middle school students carry out military training to enhance their perseverance in hard work; Border guards and primary and secondary schools "raise the same national flag", encouraging children to strive to be good teenagers in the new era who respect soldiers and care about national defense … … The national defense education with patriotism as the core is widely carried out throughout the country, and the feelings of patriotism and support for the army are instilled imperceptibly. The social atmosphere of caring for and supporting national defense and army building is getting stronger and stronger, and the national cohesion is constantly strengthening.
"Only by letting more people participate in it and letting everyone understand the sacrifices and dedication of military personnel can we truly make the concept of national defense deeply rooted in our hearts." Yu Hong, a political instructor at the Army Engineering University, said, "Home is the smallest country, and there are thousands of countries. The growing awareness of national defense in the whole society has strung together concentric circles of individuals, families and countries."
Share the destiny with the motherland and forge ahead with the times. More and more college students regard devoting themselves to national defense and serving the motherland as their youth choice and value pursuit.
On September 23, 2017, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader wrote back to eight newly recruited college students of Nankai University, affirming their behavior of joining the army and serving the country with pens, and encouraging them to shed their blood in the great practice of realizing the dream of strengthening the military and write a gorgeous and regretless youth chapter. The affectionate reply inspired and stirred the hearts of young officers and soldiers and thousands of students.
A strong country must have a strong army, and a strong army can protect the country. On March 8 this year, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader attended the plenary session of the delegation of the People’s Liberation Army and the Armed Police Force at the First Session of the 14th National People’s Congress, stressing that consolidating and improving the strategic system and capabilities of an integrated country is a strategic deployment made by the CPC Central Committee to grasp the new situation, new tasks and new requirements faced by strengthening the country and the army, with a view to better coordinating development and security, and better coordinating economic construction and national defense construction. Carrying out this plan well is of great significance to building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation in an all-round way, achieving the goal of building the army for a hundred years, and accelerating the building of our army into a world-class army.
Remember the entrustment and be determined to struggle. The vast number of officers and men said that the new era and new journey, consolidating and improving the strategic system and capabilities of integrated countries, strengthening the integration of strategic layout in various fields, integrating strategic resources, and integrating strategic forces, in line with the general trend of the times, will certainly inject new powerful impetus into the great cause of strengthening the country and strengthening the army.
1.6 million people joined the army, 3.13 million migrant workers and 200,000 stretchers … … On August 16, 2022, in the Liaoshen Campaign Memorial Hall, a set of "statistics of the people before the Northeast Liberation War" attracted the attention of the Supreme Leader General Secretary.
"Our victory is the sacrifice of thousands of people in Qian Qian, which depends more on ordinary people. The victory of Huaihai Campaign was pushed out by ordinary people in small cars, the victory of crossing the river was rowed out by ordinary people in small boats, and the victory of Liaoshen Campaign was fully supported by the people of Northeast China. " The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader expressed his feelings.
The people’s army has crossed one ditch after another and won one victory after another. The "victory code" behind it is hidden in it.
From the Agrarian Revolutionary War to "arousing millions of workers and peasants to work with one heart" to War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression’s "Wang Yang sea trapped by the enemy"; From the "tide-like trolleys and stretcher teams" in the War of Liberation to the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, "the whole country is willing to pour its material and financial resources" … … History tells us that with the will of the people, the will of the people and the strength of the people, the people’s army will be invincible and invincible in the world. As long as we always stand on the people’s side and win the heartfelt support of the overwhelming majority of the people, we can build an iron wall of unity.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has personally advocated to promote the establishment of Martyrs’ Memorial Day and National Public Sacrifice Day, and to establish an honorary commendation system for the meritorious service of the Party and the state, bringing together great spiritual strength in the whole society that loves China and is concerned with national defense. A series of activities were held to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Red Army’s Long March and the 90th anniversary of the founding of the army, which were grand and solemn, reaching the hearts of the people, greatly inspiring the hearts of the Party, the army and the people.
In the years, I will move forward. Today’s land of China presents a moving scene of military and civilian joining hands and forging ahead in unity — —
