Red Bloodline - Today in the History of the Party and the Army| January 19 Clearly put forward the party's absolute leadership in the Red Army

On 19 January 1932, the General Political Department of the Red Army issued a "Letter to the Whole Army on the Work of the Central Branches of the Red Army," stressing: "Strengthening the party's own education, expanding the party's political influence, enhancing and consolidating the party's absolute leadership in the Red Army, ensuring the implementation of the orders of the superiors in the Red Army, and consolidating discipline in the Red Army are the most central tasks of the party in the Red Army at present."

This letter was sent to correct deviations in the work of the Party in the Red Army. The letter clearly put forward the concept of the party's "absolute leadership" over the army, which had a far-reaching impact on strengthening the building of the new type of people's army.
