Instructions on the formation of a volunteer army
(1) Books
In January 1951, winter has not gone, spring is coming, the land of China has just been liberated, the Korean war has started again, the domestic economy is in ruins and waiting to be revived, and the reactionaries inside and outside are looking at the tiger... In the terrifying waves of history, Mao Zedong walked idly and confidently greeted the arrival of this year.
In Korea, in order to combat the arrogance of US imperialism and gain political initiative, the Volunteer Army launched a third campaign on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve in 1950, and by January 2, the "United Nations Army" was completely defeated. On the fourth day, the volunteer army entered Seoul, crossed the Han River on the fifth day, and entered Inchon on the eighth day. At this point, the third battle was over, and the volunteer army began to rest.
Mao Zedong did not celebrate his achievements, and he quietly moved into a nursery school on the outskirts of Shijiazhuang. For a total of two months, in addition to work, Mao Zedong has been trying to revise and sort out his upcoming reprint of the "Selected Works of Mao Zedong". In fact, the previous editions of the Anthology were published by the governments of various local liberated regions during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation, and until then, the CENTRAL Committee of the Communist Party of China had not officially compiled and published the Anthology. When Mao Zedong visited the Soviet Union to discuss with Stalin the many affairs of the two countries, Stalin specifically mentioned Mao Zedong's writings, and he suggested that Mao Zedong should edit and publish the Anthology as soon as possible.
It was not easy to revise a million-word work, and with the help of his secretaries, Mao Zedong personally participated in the selection and definition of the articles, revised and revised most of the articles, and made valuable annotations for some of them. In the end, Mao Zedong selected a large number of sample drafts of about one million words, and those manuscripts were written in bold large characters: "This piece is not used."
Later, the author commented on his own work: "These things in Mao Xuan were taught to us by the masses and paid the price of bloody sacrifice."
(ii) Counter-revolution
On February 21, 1951, the Central People's Government promulgated the Regulations of the People's Republic of China on the Punishment of Counter-Revolutionaries, which provided legal weapons and unified sentencing standards for anti-political struggles in various localities, and the township counter-movement began to reach a climax. There is no doubt that this huge movement has dealt a heavy blow to a large number of enemies and reactionaries who are extremely indignant throughout the country, but there are still chaos in some counties that violate regulations and even kill good people by mistake.
On March 30, Mao Zedong issued an instruction: "In some parts of Shandong, there is a bias of insufficient strength, and in some places there is a tendency to engage in hasty work, which are two kinds of biases that exist in all provinces and cities in the country in general, and attention should be paid to correcting them." In particular, the bias of hasty engagement is the most dangerous. Because of the lack of momentum, after education and persuasion, the momentum will always be sufficient, and the counter-revolution will kill a few days earlier and later, which does not have much to do with it. However, if it is done hastily, and if it is wrongly arrested and killed, the impact is very bad. I ask you to exercise strict control over the work of suppressing rebellion, to be cautious in doing so, and to correct all tendencies that are carried out hastily. We must suppress all counter-revolutions, but we must not catch mistakes and kill mistakes. ”
There is no doubt that the people have a bloody vendetta against the counter-revolutionaries who oppressed them. Sometimes, however, the people's government, while exercising its public power, cannot completely avoid mistakes of one kind or another, and at this time, the leaders must know how to stabilize all parties and properly handle the contradictions of the whole country.
(3) Beggars
In May, a special, dead beggar stormed into the literary and art circles, and this person was given the name Wuxun by the Qing court, and was a well-known "righteous scholar" in Shandong in the old days who funded the cause of running a school through begging.
From the end of 1950 to the beginning of 1951, the movie "The Legend of Martial Arts" was released in several major cities in China, and for a time people, just like now scoring Douban, waved the flag for this movie, calling it a "banner" and praising it as "a typical expression of the lofty qualities of diligence, bravery and wisdom of our Chinese nation"... Cloud.
So, in fact?
Wu Xunqi, who worked as a long-term worker in his early years, was oppressed by the landlord's relatives because he was illiterate, so he "became enlightened" and went around like an ascetic monk to build a "righteous study" that did not charge money. It sounds like a bleak charity story, but martial arts don't just do that. There was a lot of money to build the Yixue, and it was far from enough for Wuxun to rely solely on begging, so after having a certain amount of wealth, Wuxun entrusted others to lend usurious loans and make money with money. In addition, yixue is indeed free, but students can only learn castrated Confucianism there, and although students want to enroll in school without paying, gifts to teachers are also rare, so in yixue, they can finally learn children with family business. In the late Qing Dynasty, although the philanthropy of martial arts had a progressive side, what he did could be said to have not changed the feudal society at all, and his reputation was the result of people's vassalage and deification.
In order to get the original source, Mao Zedong published an editorial in the People's Daily in his busy schedule: "People like Wu Xun were in the last years of the Qing Dynasty... Is it not at all necessary to touch a single hair of the feudal economic base and its superstructure, but to fanatically propagate feudal culture, and in order to attain the status of propagating feudal culture that we do not have, we will do everything we can to enslave the reactionary feudal rulers. ”
Martial arts training is not enough training.
