  ——Overview of the 100th Anniversary of the Founding of the Army from the 100th Anniversary of the Founding of the Party

  ■Solution Xinping

  (one)

  This year is the 100th anniversary of our party.

  Today is the 94th birthday of the People’s Army.

  From 1921 to 1927, these 6 years have been the arrival from one starting point to another.

  2021-2027, these six years are the calling of one dream to another.

  In 1921, the great eastern country broke ground, and the Communist Party of China was born.

In the next six years, this start-up party struggled, from confusion to sobriety, from frustration to rise, walking on the trail of blood, and finally understood a truth: "Know that the power is obtained from the barrel of a gun."

  On August 1, 1927, the sound of gunshots at the head of Nanchang City was like a bolt of lightning that pierced the night sky.

Immediately afterwards, the Autumn Harvest Uprising, the Guangzhou Uprising and the armed uprisings in many other regions quickly turned into a prairie fire. The Chinese Communist Party began to independently lead the revolutionary war and create the People's Army. The new era of the Chinese revolution has arrived.

  The clock of history, draped with clouds and clouds, will always move forward.

  On July 1, 2021, at the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, President Xi solemnly declared: "The Chinese nation has ushered in a great leap from standing up, getting rich to becoming strong, and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has entered an irreversible The course of history!"

  The wheel of history, like a planet that firmly believes in orbit, is fast and fast.

  On August 1, 2027, the Chinese People's Liberation Army will celebrate its 100th anniversary.

  Looking at the 100th anniversary of the founding of the army from the 100th anniversary of the founding of the party.

At this moment, every Chinese soldier and the people of the motherland share our party’s outstanding successful practices and celebrate the great phoenix nirvana of the Chinese nation. At the same time, they are listening to the commander’s instructions and commands, comprehending the party’s creation and absolute leadership. The People's Army is shouldering a heavy historical responsibility on the new journey.

  Learn from history and create the future.

Among the "nine musts" profoundly summarized in Chairman Xi's important speech on July 1st, "the modernization of national defense and the military must be accelerated", which is solemnly written into the "political manifesto" of the Communist Party of China that has attracted worldwide attention.

  For Chinese soldiers in the new era, this political manifesto is also a powerful mobilization order.

  "See clearly why we were able to succeed in the past."

Looking back in shock, it was the ups and downs of a century-old party.

The party flag led the military flag to walk through the thorns and thorns, made great sacrifices, and experienced the thunder of history and the storms of the times.

Persevering in the party's command of guns and building its own people's army is an unbreakable truth that the party has drawn in the struggle between blood and fire.

Without a strong people’s army, there would be no national independence, national liberation, no years of peace and a comprehensive well-off.

  "Understand how we can continue to succeed in the future."

Looking up, this is the majestic strategy of a century-old party.

The military flag follows the party flag and leads to the glorious prospect of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

The People's Army is a strong pillar to defend the red world and safeguard national dignity, and it is also a powerful force for safeguarding regional and world peace.

In the face of the pass of a thousand mountains and the torrent of water, without a strong people's army, the will of the party and the proposition of the party cannot be realized, and there will be no support for rise and the guarantee of rejuvenation.

  On the new journey, to defend national sovereignty, security, development interests, and maintain regional and world peace, we need stronger capabilities and more reliable means.

In the historical process of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way and realizing the second centenary goal, we must put national defense and army building in a more important position, and accelerate the construction and consolidation of national defense and a strong army.

At the Fifth Plenary Session of the Nineteenth Central Committee of the Party, our party clearly proposed to "ensure the achievement of the goal of the century-old army in 2027."

  On July 30, 2021, when the August 1st Army Day is approaching, President Xi emphasized when presiding over the 32nd collective study of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee that it is the Party Central Committee and the Central Military Commission to realize the goal of the 100-year struggle for the army’s founding. The major decisions required in the era of strengthening the country and the military are major tasks related to the overall situation of national security and development, and are a very important step in the new "three-step" of national defense and military modernization.

  2021-2027 will be another 6 years!

  ——The past 6 years, with our longing.

The goal of the army’s one-hundred-year struggle has enriched the goals, tasks and development steps of national defense and military modernization, and formed a new "three-step" strategic arrangement for national defense and military modernization from 2027 to 2035 to the middle of this century. The blueprint for the development of a strong army in the new era.

On the new journey, how should we move towards the next main peak of the battle?

  ——In the past 6 years, with huge potential energy.

Under the guidance of Xi Jinping’s thinking on strengthening the army, the 2020 goals and tasks of national defense and army building have basically been completed, giving the people’s army stronger strength and greater confidence, the people’s army’s institutional structure, the development pattern, and the face of the army.

The dream of the first century-old goal has come true, and the second century-old goal has already begun. What attitude and outlook should we take to carry forward the past, forge ahead, bury our heads, and go swiftly?

  ——In the past 6 years, with an urgent rhythm.

In today's world, major changes unseen in a century are accelerating, and justice and injustice, multilateral and unilateral, "paving" and "building walls" continue to compete.

The epidemic is continuous and the war is raging.

The uncertainty and instability of my country's security situation has increased, and the situation at home and abroad is complicated.

Silent competition, invisible competition, the intensity is beyond imagination.

On the road to a strong army, how should we be prepared to deal with various complex and difficult situations at any time and provide strong support for the rejuvenation of the motherland?

  Judgment can comprehend.

Comprehend, in order to execute.

  "A strong country must have a strong army, and a strong army can ensure national security." Looking at the future, a new journey has begun.

After 6 years and 6 years of struggle, the goal of the army's 100-year struggle must be achieved, and it will certainly be achieved. This is the sonorous oath of the People's Army.

  All history is contemporary history.

Only by understanding history can we understand the future.

Let history reveal the future, a great story is being written——

  Leading the nation towards a great rejuvenation is the great cause of the Chinese Communist Party.

  Supporting the nation's great rejuvenation is the vital task of the people's army.

  "He saw it!"

  At the scene of theatrical performance "The Great Journey" celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, a huge LED screen displayed a shocking scene: Chairman Mao looked up from the Tiananmen Gate at the founding ceremony.

At this time, it coincided with the five-star fireworks blooming over the "Bird's Nest".

This coincidence, which seemed like a journey, made countless Chinese children tears into their eyes: "This prosperous age, as you wish"...

  However, who could have imagined that on the day of the founding ceremony, on the wooden beams of the Tiananmen Gate, there were still 3 shells that were not exploded when the Eight-Power Allied Forces shelled in 1900.

These three shells were not accidentally discovered by workers until 1952 when the tower was repaired.

  At the founding ceremony, the cannonball hangs its head, condensing the centuries-old humiliation of the Chinese nation.

The 600-year-old Tiananmen Gate witnessed that the great powers once stepped on the Golden Water Bridge with dignity, passed through the gate, and held a military parade.

  "The country has been humiliated, the people suffered, and civilization has been dusted. The Chinese nation has suffered unprecedented calamities." Since the Opium War in 1840, it has been defeated and humiliated time and time again, and seceded territories for peace time and time again. The sovereignty and national dignity of the country have been continuously violated. , Being ravaged, makes people sigh and sigh with pain.

  Mankind has entered the 20th century, and ancient China is still struggling with humiliation.

Obviously it was a victorious country in the First World War, but our Shandong was placed on the altar of the Paris Peace Conference and became the coveted lamb of Japanese imperialism.

It is this Japan that first occupied Taiwan, swallowed Northeast China, and then sought North China, pressing on every step of the way until it submerged half of China’s rivers and mountains in a pool of blood...

  Memory is crushed by the wheels of suffering. The deeper the suffering, the deeper the impression.

  Without a strong people's army, there can be no strong motherland!

  On November 29, 2012, when visiting the exhibition "Road to Rejuvenation", President Xi stopped to meditate in front of a "picture of the current situation" that the great powers carveed up China, and solemnly declared to the world: to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, it is China The greatest dream of the nation since modern times.

  On December 8, 2012, President Xi boarded the Haikou ship anchored in Shekou Port, Shenzhen, and embarked on his first trip to the South China Sea since he was party leader and military commander.

  The sea and the sky are uniform, the warships are moving forward, and President Xi looks far and deep through the clouds and smoke of history-more than 170 years ago, Western powers opened the door of China from the sea, and ancient China has since fallen into a nightmare of misery.

  Two days later, President Xi came to the former 42nd Group Army’s exercise field and made an important conclusion: "This great dream is a dream of a strong nation, and for the military, it is also a dream of a strong military."

  Through the clouds and smoke of history, we seem to hear the deepest call of this nation and this country!

If the army is not strong, there will be no victory in the war; if the army is not strong, there will be no dignity of the motherland; if the army is not strong, there will be no national rejuvenation and world peace.

  After the People's Army was born, the Communist Party of China took on the important historical responsibilities, but the "main battle equipment" of our People's Army in the early days of its establishment was nothing more than a variety of light weapons, as well as spears, broadswords, and even kitchen knives.

  In the face of a powerful enemy, Huang Gonglue, commander of the Third Army of the Red Army, who "will not die in the Guangzhou riots, but not die in the Pingjiang riots", fell in an air strike by enemy planes during the third anti-"encirclement and suppression" campaign.

  "Cangshan is like a sea, and the setting sun is like blood", Chairman Mao's tragic and desolate poem at Loushan Pass is full of bloody battles by the soldiers of the Red Army.

  Wu Cheng, a veteran of the New Fourth Army who was twice wounded and twice amputation, remembers a battle during the Liberation War, and his memory is still fresh: "Our 20-man commando attacked the fortress with rifles and grenades for two days and three nights. The battle was won. Now, there are only two people left in the assault team. At that time, how much we wished we could have a cannon..."

  Long-term strong military dream, when will the dream come true?

  Until the founding of New China, Xiao Jinguang, the first commander of the People's Navy, inspected Liugong Island, but there was no warship that could be operated, so he had to rent a fishing boat.

  On the way, someone introduced to the boss of the ship that the person who took your ship was the commander of the navy.

The ship boss didn’t believe it at all: “The Navy Commander is still sitting on my fishing boat?” Xiao Jinguang, who was deeply excited, turned his head and said to the entourage: “Take note, on March 17, 1950, Navy Commander Xiao Jinguang inspected Liugong Island on a fishing boat!”

  Liugong Island, the Beiyang Navy was destroyed here during the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895.

More than half a century later, the People's Navy of New China is still a pitifully small "inland river fleet."

For the first time traveling down the Yangtze River by naval ship, Chairman Mao wrote the same inscription for five warships in a row: "In order to oppose imperialist aggression, we must build a powerful navy!"

  The waves of the Yangtze River are rolling in the heart of the founder of the People's Army.

Writing the same inscription five times in succession is unique in Mao Zedong's life.

  Strong country and army, the journey is like a rainbow.

In the years that followed, Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin, and Hu Jintao placed ardent expectations on building a powerful people’s army and issued a series of instructions and requirements.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, and the curtain of a strong army has been opened.

  In 2013, when President Xi attended the Plenary Session of the People's Liberation Army delegation at the first session of the 12th National People's Congress, he called: Strive to build a people's army that listens to the party's command, can win battles, and has a good work style.

  On the last day of 2015, the Army’s leadership, Rocket Forces, and Strategic Support Forces were established.

In his instructions, President Xi put forward clear requirements: "Efforts to build a powerful modern new army", "Efforts to build a powerful modern rocket army", "Efforts to build a powerful modern strategic support force"...

  powerful!

powerful!

powerful!

Through the long river of history, the soldiers of the People's Army are calling, the generals are calling, the commanders are calling—

  A powerful people's army is a strong pillar to defend the red world and safeguard national dignity, and it is also a powerful force for safeguarding regional and world peace.

  Today, we are closer to the goal of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation than at any time in history, and we need to build a powerful people's army more than at any time in history.

  (three)

  "100", a number with a deep meaning, will ignite the hearts of countless Chinese people on July 1, 2021.

  In the early morning of this day, 15 J-20 fighters were divided into three echelons, whizzing through Tiananmen Square.

The word "100" composed of 29 new armed helicopters has aroused people's unforgettable cheers and unlimited imagination.

  The People's Army Party was founded, grew and strengthened the Party's training.

This is the wreath of the people's army to pay tribute to the party, and it is also the people's army's commitment to the motherland and the people to the goal of the army's centennial struggle.

  Through clouds and fog, flying over the boiling sea of ​​time, it is inseparable from clear route planning.

  Looking up at the sky, few people know that as early as 1940, our party had the first blueprint for air force construction-the "Plan for Building China's Red Air Force."

  The drafters of this plan were Chang Qiankun and Wang Bi, experts sent by our party to the Soviet Union to study aviation technology in the early days.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the two requested to return home.

This plan was written on their journey from Xinjiang to Yan'an.

  Passing through Yumen Pass and crossing Xingxing Gorge, they rushed during the day, lit their lights at night, accompanied by the wind and sand of the desert, listening to the sound of the Yellow River, and remembering their dreams on paper.

  It seemed almost whimsical at the time to let the people's army that had climbed the snow-capped mountains and crossed the grass and completed the Long March to fly, and they fully estimated the difficulty.

Now I opened the plan treasured in the Air Force Archives, and I saw that the first sentence of each paragraph was "If..." "If..." "If..."

  It was this plan to describe dreams in a hypothetical way that attracted the attention of the Party Central Committee and decided to first establish an aviation school for the Military Commission in Yan'an.

Mao Zedong and Zhu De also met with Chang Qiankun and Wang Bi, and said to them earnestly: "It is good to be enthusiastic about developing the aviation industry, but you must have determination and patience."

  After the founding of New China, Chang Qiankun and Wang Bi served as deputy commanders of the People’s Air Force and deputy political commissar of the People’s Air Force.

The dream they had 10 years ago is no longer a volley and realization step by step.

  The eyes of the Chinese Communists penetrate time and space, and the dreams of the Chinese Communists are firm and persistent.

An important factor supporting all of this is that we are good at turning dreams into goals, putting goals into planning, and turning planning into reality.

In all historical periods, the party will clearly put forward the goals and requirements for the building and development of the people's army in accordance with changes in the situation and tasks.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the national defense and army building plan was advanced in a five-year cycle, and now it has come to the "14th Five-Year Plan".

  The flame of the original heart needs to be lit one after another.

  The mission boat needs to be hauled section by section.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Chairman Xi has stood at the commanding heights of history and the overall situation, has carried out strategic planning and design of military construction, and has repeatedly emphasized the need to strengthen strategic planning and top-level design, and improve the strategic ability to defend national sovereignty, security, and development interests. In particular, personally guided and promoted the drafting of the "14th Five-Year Plan" for the construction of our army, clearly required that it should be coordinated with the national development layout, implement the military strategy of the new era, implement the modern development strategy of our army, and form a scientific road map and construction picture.

  We are well aware that the five years of this plan will be in the next six years.

  Persist in building the army through politics, reforming the army, strengthening the army with science and technology, strengthening the army with talents, and administering the army according to the law, comprehensively promote the modernization of military theory, the modernization of the military organization, the modernization of military personnel, and the modernization of weapons and equipment, and accelerate the integrated development of mechanization, informatization, and intelligence. Strengthen military training and preparations, and the layout of a strong army has been slowly unfolded.

  Establish a joint combat command system, a new military management system, a modern military force system, a new military training system, a new military talent system, a national defense technology innovation system, a modern military policy system, a military-civilian integration development system, and the strategic focus of the new journey to strengthen the military. Has been confirmed one by one.

  Domestically-made aircraft carriers, new fighters, new submarines, new missiles... the appearance of major powers has been dizzying.

The "strong army rhythm" is in full swing, and plans and blueprints for the People's Army are continuing to be realized.

  For a new victory, start a new departure.

This is historical consciousness, active construction, accumulation of development, and the call of the times.

  You must continue to do things that are right, and persevere in catching them.

The road to a strong army with Chinese characteristics is to "put one foot in front of the other" and unswervingly walk out.

  The voyage is long, with the twists and turns of that year, and today's ups and downs.

  On the road to a strong army, the road to forge ahead towards the goal of the army’s century-old struggle is a crucial step.

Towards the goal of a century-long struggle for the founding of the army, we not only have a grand “freehand” blueprint of large time and space, but also a “construction drawing” for implementing the plan piece by piece using “gongbi”.

  Towards the milestone of the goal of the army's one-hundred-year struggle, every Chinese soldier is carrying out a relay race and must run his own stick well.

  On the turbulent ocean, the "China Aegis" Changsha ship sailed under the control of the main engine technician Li Wanli and his comrades.

Over the years, one of Li Wanli's most frequently heard passwords is: "Two Enters and Ten"-Go ahead at full speed!

  "The heavy rain falls on Youyan, and the white waves are overwhelming."

  In 1954, the regularization of the People's Army kicked off, and a series of major reforms such as the implementation of the military rank system were being demonstrated and brewing.

In the summer of this year, Chairman Mao Zedong looked at the sea and wrote the magnificent "Langtao Sand Beidaihe".

  The tide of the times, the waves are surging.

The development history of the people's army is a magnificent history of reform and innovation.

During the Agrarian Revolutionary War, a set of principles for army building was established. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, the troops were streamlined and the administration was streamlined. During the War of Liberation, five field armies were formed. After the founding of New China, the system was adjusted many times. powerful.

  History tells us that reform and innovation and advancing with the times are the inevitable road for the continuous development of the people's army. The strength of the people's army comes from reform and innovation, and the victory of the people's army comes from reform and innovation.

The People's Army must be brave to reform, be good at innovation, and never become rigid or stagnant at any time and under any circumstances.

  The wheel of history is rolling forward.

With a series of changes in the international and domestic situation, the Communist Party of China and the People's Army under its leadership have come to a new crossroads.

  At this intersection, there is a lot of twists and turns.

This intersection is dark and rough.

China is approaching the center of the world stage as never before, and it is also facing severe security pressure and risk challenges as never before.

  From November 24 to 26, 2015, the Central Military Commission held a reform work meeting. Chairman Xi issued a mobilization order for deepening the reform of national defense and the army: comprehensively implement the strategy of reforming and strengthening the army, and unswervingly follow the path of strengthening the army with Chinese characteristics.

  From 2015 to 2021, it has been 6 years in a blink of an eye!

  2021-2027, there will be another 6 years in the future!

  In the last six years, major simplifications, major optimizations, major adjustments, major shifts and defenses... Chairman Xi personally promoted this "most powerful military reform in history."

The tide rises in the east, attracting worldwide attention.

Foreign power evaluation: This is China's largest military reform in 60 years.

  In the next six years, the People's Army will rush towards the goal of the century-old army.

History is advancing with the times, and reforms have not yet come to an end. Our new journey will still be accompanied by reforms, and we will continue to slash through the waves in the unknown "blue ocean" and see the clear outline of the world's first-class military.

  Carry on the past and open the future.

What we are now in is a time when boats arrive in the middle and the wandering is more anxious, and people arrive at a steeper road in the middle of the mountain.

  Looking around the world, military mechanization is becoming more and more mature, informatization is advancing by leaps and bounds, and intelligence is beginning to take shape, and militaries of various countries are exploring the path of transformation.

Who is left behind will be passive.

  As we move towards the 100th anniversary of the founding of the army, we are more aware: Many things in the world can be copied, but victory can never be copied, and no matter how powerful the blue army is, it will never replace a real opponent.

  As we move towards the 100th anniversary of the founding of the army, we are even more convinced that today’s reform is a rare opportunity and window period for the People’s Army.

In another six years, its meaning will become clearer if you look back through the telescope of history.

  ——The power to move forward will be accumulated in the reform, and there is nothing that cannot be changed.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, our army's establishment system has been severely broken several times.

The first time the reorganization was streamlined and reorganized, the designations of the four outstanding combat troops and corps were cancelled.

After the Korean War broke out, it is still advancing.

The number of military districts increased from 6, 12, and 13, and later reduced to 7.

Today, the flag was officially awarded to the 5 major military regions, and the military region has completed its historical mission.

  -The obstacles to advancement will be overcome in the reform, and there is nothing that cannot be overcome.

"Big open, big break, big stand, fast and steady." Looking back on the drastic changes of this reform, everyone's hopes have been fulfilled. In response to the stubborn illness of the past, who has not had an impassioned needle, who has not had a good idea, and who has not been eagerly eager. look forward to?

Today, reform dreams have become reality one by one, and many changes have exceeded people's expectations.

  ——The burden of progress will be shaken off in the reform, and there is nothing that cannot be given up.

Reform is also a big test.

The reform of the armed forces of all countries in the world is in pain, so reform is difficult and precious.

During that time, how many comrades’ mobile phones were "farewell" to the screen: bid farewell to the headquarters system, bid farewell to the large military area, bid farewell to the old troops... After Yiyi bid farewell, they rushed to the new battle position with their heads high.

  Everything is to be strong and to win.

  In order to be strong and to win, an army with a distance must dare to say goodbye.

  Think about how many people were reluctant to give up when the Party Central Committee withdrew from Yan'an.

Facts have proved that only by going out of the cave dwellings in northern Shaanxi can we win the whole of China.

  "Great rivers and mountains, let's not give up"!

  July 2021, Beijing, Military Museum of the Chinese People's Revolution.

A picture of a frontier soldier with open arms blocking foreign troops is particularly eye-catching. It is the back of Qi Fabao, the "hero commander of the Guardian Frontier Guard".

  In the same exhibition room, there are two striking maps of our army when it liberated Yijiangshan Island.

On January 18, 1955, our army carried out a joint land, sea and air landing operation for the first time, and the battle ended in only three hours.

  An editorial published by the People's Daily at the time warned US and Jiang: "Is the'Mutual Defense Treaty' you concluded useful? This is just an illusion!"

  一张照片、两幅地图;一个在高原、一个在东海,不约而同昭示出一种亮剑必胜的底气和豪迈。

  这种底气,这种豪迈,来自我们党对这支绝对领导的人民军队战斗能力的充分了解,来自我们党经历千锤百炼对斗争手段炉火纯青的娴熟运用,也来自我们党捍卫国家主权、安全、发展利益绝不屈服、血战到底的战斗意志。

  今天,这个能力更加强大——持续加快发展,狠抓练兵备战,扫除和平积弊,我们逐渐形成积极进取、主动作为、深远经略的战略布局,不断提升塑造态势、管控危机、遏制战争、打赢战争的战略能力。

  今天,这个手段更加可靠——一切工作都向能打仗、打胜仗聚焦,“安不可以忘危,治不可以忘乱。我们捍卫和平、维护安全、慑止战争的手段和选择有多种多样,但军事手段始终是保底手段。”

  今天,这个底线更加明确——“凡是危害中国共产党领导和我国社会主义制度的各种风险挑战,凡是危害我国主权、安全、发展利益的各种风险挑战,凡是危害我国核心利益和重大原则的各种风险挑战,凡是危害我国人民根本利益的各种风险挑战,凡是危害我国实现‘两个一百年’奋斗目标、实现中华民族伟大复兴的各种风险挑战,只要来了,我们就必须进行坚决斗争。”

  我们深知,告别“落后挨打”还远远不够,“富起来”可能会招来更猛烈的风雨,“强起来”可能会遇到更大的阻力。

  要想更强大、更可靠,必须更清醒、更忧患。

  在人类社会发展史上,有这样两个著名的“时间轴”。一个是科技革命时间轴,一个是军事革命时间轴。不难发现,每一次军事革命总是与科技革命同频共振,谁最先拥抱时代浪潮,谁就掌握了军队崛起的命门,谁就会赢得胜利的先机。

  眺望建军一百年,我们应有这样的清醒:“世界一流”是一个动态概念,它随着军事革命“时间轴”坐标的位移而不断变化。目的地在变,起跑线也在变;我们在赶路,别人也在赶路;我们在变,别人也在变。我们不要以为未来战争跟好莱坞大片一样,也不要以为过去胜利了将来就一定胜利。

  当此之时,我们应有这样的忧患:“军事上的落后一旦形成,对国家安全的影响将是致命的。”

  “凡是过去,皆为序章”。真正的自信,是清醒的自信。

  “天下虽安,忘战必危”。我们要始终保持忧患意识,枕戈待旦。

  大机遇、大变革,千载难逢。我们必须要只争朝夕,加速改变,与时间赛跑。

  大挑战、大跨越,百舸竞发。我们必须到中流击水,引领改变,与对手赛跑。

  (六)

  军事变革,大潮奔涌,我们向着建军一百年奋斗目标逐浪前行。它如钱塘江大潮吸引着弄潮儿,又如超长马拉松考验着我们的勇气和毅力。

  6年,看似弹指一挥间,又具有极大的想象空间。

  6年,我们能做多少事?

  “多少事,从来急;天地转,光阴迫。一万年太久,只争朝夕……”上个世纪五十年代末、六十年代初,面对国际反华势力的疯狂讹诈、打压封锁,从1958年中国决定独立自主研制原子弹,到1964年中国第一颗原子弹爆炸,也仅仅用了6年时间。

  没有苦难,就没有坚忍、没有积聚;

  没有胜利,就没有激情、没有尊严。

  清末名将胡林翼说:“兵事毕竟归于豪杰一流,气不盛者,遇事而气先慑,而目先逃,而心先摇……其识力既钝,其胆力必减,固可忧大之矣。”愈难愈进、愈险愈进,这正是我们这个政党、我们这支军队特有的品质风骨、特有的精神之刃。

  又是一轮风狂雨骤,又是一番乌云压顶。展望建军百年,我们不妨问问自己——

  在千呼万唤无人响应的孤独谷底,我们是等待救援还是寻路攀登?在星光璀璨、万众瞩目的辉煌巅峰,我们是安于现状还是继续前行?我们心底是否还澎湃着那条坚持真理、坚守理想,践行初心、担当使命,不怕牺牲、英勇斗争,对党忠诚、不负人民的精神长河?

  伟大的建党精神,源远流长,滋养着千千万万中国共产党人。它诞生于信仰的高原,越千山,纳百川,直奔中华民族复兴的海洋。

  ——沿着这条精神之河,让我们走近一位位人民军队的革命先烈。

  方志敏、董振堂、杨靖宇、左权、朱瑞……一个个光耀千秋的名字,读懂他们,就能真正理解何谓“初心”、何谓“信仰”。他们的每一颗心,都装着马克思主义,装着整个中华民族。细读方志敏的《可爱的中国》能感到,那种爱是多么的深沉细腻。戴着镣铐的铮铮硬汉,写出如此美文,内心是何等灿亮。

  ——沿着这条精神之河,让我们走近一座座人民军队的英雄雕像。

  湘江之战,红军长征最惨烈的一幕。为突破第四道封锁线,红军与七八倍于己的敌军展开一场空前酷烈的浴血大战。红34师战至弹尽粮绝,大部分壮烈牺牲。师长陈树湘腹部中弹,断肠明志,决不当俘虏。阵地上,到处是红军烈士与敌人滚抱在一起的遗体。湘江,一度成为“血江”。

  ——沿着这条精神之河,让我们走进一座座战场旧址。

  1934年7月,在四川“万源保卫战”中,手执偃月刀的红25师师长许世友,带着红军官兵反击,誓与强敌血拼到底。这个师,从师长到士兵,每人配一把纯钢打造的大刀,连砍十几个铜板不会卷刃。那一仗,全歼敌人,红军的大刀砍得卷了刃,场面极为罕见。

  ——沿着这条精神之河,让我们登上一座座精神高地。

  难忘古田。1929年12月,中国共产党在这里确立思想建党、政治建军的原则,“成为党和人民军队建设史上重要的里程碑”。

  进入新时代,习主席又在古田主持召开全军政治工作会议。这既是“重整行装再出发”,又是“精神上的再回归”。如同当年寒冬里的炭火,再次点燃铁拳除弊的豪情,照亮扫霾清障的道路。全面彻底肃清郭伯雄、徐才厚、房峰辉、张阳流毒影响,人民军队临绝地而再造、浴烈火而重生、逢生机而勃发,政治生态重焕天青。

  伟大的精神之河,波光粼粼,清澈见底,能照见我们每个人的内心,能洗涤灵魂上的尘埃,升腾起正气、骨气、底气、勇气和锐气。

  伟大的精神之河,浩浩荡荡,汹涌澎湃,前浪奔腾,后浪紧随,在于汇入她的每一条小溪、每一颗水滴都有共同趋附的目标。

  苏联著名女作家科茹霍娃曾写下这样一段话:“士兵的力量不仅仅在他自己身上……还在于他生长的古老土地上,在于他从祖辈继承下来的多年形成的历史之中。”

  我们是党绝对领导下的人民军队,伟大的建党精神,也是人民军队的精神之源、生命之源,为我们提供战胜一切艰难险阻的磅礴力量。

  立足2021,眺望2027,目标决定方向、牵引发展、激发动力。火一样的热情,升华为恒久的信仰,转化为坚定的传承。

  “今天,我们比历史上任何时期都更接近、更有信心和能力实现中华民族伟大复兴的目标,同时必须准备付出更为艰巨、更为艰苦的努力。”

  “历史川流不息,精神代代相传。我们要继续弘扬光荣传统、赓续红色血脉,永远把伟大建党精神继承下去、发扬光大!”

  成吉思汗说:“越不可越之山,则登其巅;渡不可渡之河,则达彼岸。”毛泽东说:“红军不怕远征难,万水千山只等闲。”

  85年前,曾通过《阿Q正传》等著作强烈抨击国民劣根性的鲁迅,在红军长征到达陕北后特意致电中共中央:在你们身上,寄托着中国与人类的将来。

  85年后的今天,通过AI修复技术,一张彝族红军战士长征到达陕北后的留影从黑白变成彩色,一张张洋溢着胜利喜悦的青春脸庞清晰可见。网友留言:征途漫漫,终于胜利,看清你的样子真好!

  前不久,91岁老兵李泽林和老伴同时获颁“光荣在党50年”纪念章。孙子问他:“您最骄傲的是什么?”这位14岁参加新四军、16岁加入中国共产党的老兵回答:“我最骄傲的是把我的青春年华献给了祖国。”

  在海军博物馆展厅,老英雄麦贤得看到了从自己头部取出来的那枚弹片。面对镜头,老人口齿略显不清,但誓言依旧铿锵有力:“为我们党,为我们祖国,为我们人民,一代一代传一代,为祖国的青春永不变!”

  不忘初心,青春朝气永在;志在千秋,百年恰是少年。

  这是一次意味深长的“对话”——

  “你好,100年!你好,红船!这里是辽宁舰航母编队……”前不久,这段跨越时空的创意“对话”感动无数国人。网友们说:如果说辽宁舰是21世纪的“00后”,那么红船就是20世纪的“00后”。

  这是一次意味深长的“相遇”——

  在中共一大会址,在井冈山的八角楼上,在延安的窑洞前,在西柏坡的小院里……一支支年轻的队伍回到中国革命的原点、摇篮、圣地寻根。有人称:这是新时代青年的再次“觉醒”。

  让今天的“00后”官兵内心受到震撼的,不只是100年前中国共产党开创的伟业,还有那群开创伟业的年轻的中国共产党人——他们中,很多人都是生于1900年后的“00后”。同样的青春之花,竟盛开得如此绚烂。

  跨越百年,21世纪的“00后”向20世纪的“00后”报告:强军有我,你们有我,请党放心!

  征途如虹,一张张青春的面孔,构成了新时代人民军队94年的青春年轮。卢德铭,22岁;王尔琢,25岁;张思德,29岁;杨根思,28岁……在雷场上对战友喊出“你退后,让我来”的排雷英雄战士杜富国只有27岁,在高原上写下“清澈的爱,只为中国”的新时代卫国戍边英雄陈祥榕只有18岁。

  跨越时空,以党的初心为初心,以党的使命为使命,以党的目标为目标,以党的任务为任务,一张张青春面孔连接在一起,续写着这支军队红色基因的传承序列。

  “董存瑞!”“到!”“黄继光!”“到!”“邱少云!”“到!”

  放眼全军,一个个连队坚持把对英雄的纪念融入到点名的日常生活。这是英雄连队向英雄的致敬,这是英雄传人向英雄的宣誓。

  “脚踏着祖国的大地,背负着民族的希望……”我们是英雄的传人,英雄在我们长长的队伍里。

  “未来属于青年,希望寄予青年。”习主席深情寄语:“新时代的中国青年要以实现中华民族伟大复兴为己任,增强做中国人的志气、骨气、底气,不负时代,不负韶华,不负党和人民的殷切期望!”

  2013年3月11日,习主席提出党在新时代的强军目标。第二天,恰逢一年一度的植树节。曾任内蒙古阿拉善军分区主官的4位老兵,在大漠接力植绿,他们相约立下“军令状”:2027年建成生态公益林40万亩,向建军一百年献礼。

  十年树木,百年树人。这仿佛是一个深情的隐喻——这个春天,神州生出新绿,人民军队一声号角起新航。

  面向建军一百年奋斗目标,青年官兵是主力军。他们的活力就是人民军队的活力,他们的青春就是人民军队的色彩。

  强军征程中,一大批“四有”新时代革命军人在成长、有担当,未来可期,强军可期!

  实现建军一百年奋斗目标,责任就在我们这代中国军人肩上。未来6年,让我们为登临梦想高地夯基垒土——“每个人都了不起,必有了不起的未来”!

  “七一”前夕,在距离地球300多公里的太空,3位中国军人在空间站天和核心舱传来祝福:祝伟大的中国共产党生日快乐!

  几乎与此同时,中国第一位飞天的航天员杨利伟,那篇被选入中学课本的《太空一日》也火了。

  这些年,在世界的目光里,以“长征”命名的运载火箭搭载着中国军人一次次抵达太空。如果仅仅以距离为刻度,相比于当年的“两万五千里长征”,中国军人的“太空长征”还有很长的距离要走。

  前所未有的远征,连着一支军队的昨天、今天和明天。

  只有相信未来,才能敢于想象未来。

  100多年前,毛泽东在《湘江评论》上疾呼:“诸君!诸君!我们总要努力!我们总要拼命向前!我们黄金的世界,光荣灿烂的世界,就在面前!”

  如今,这个“灿烂的世界”已经降临祖国大地,我们仍须努力,仍须拼命向前,用奋斗让它更加光荣灿烂。

  不可逆转的历史进程,不可阻挡的前进步伐。

  “过去一百年,中国共产党向人民、向历史交出了一份优异的答卷。现在,中国共产党团结带领中国人民又踏上了实现第二个百年奋斗目标新的赶考之路。”在庆祝中国共产党成立100周年大会上,习主席的重要讲话,点燃了亿万中华儿女继往开来的澎湃伟力。

  列宁说:“庆祝伟大革命的纪念日,最好的办法是把注意力集中在没有完成的革命任务上。”

  实现建军一百年奋斗目标,我们必须坚持用习近平强军思想武装官兵,增强“四个意识”、坚定“四个自信”、做到“两个维护”,贯彻军委主席负责制,确保部队绝对忠诚、绝对纯洁、绝对可靠,确保枪杆子永远听党指挥,把党的政治优势和组织优势转化为聚力实现建军一百年奋斗目标的制胜优势。

  实现建军一百年奋斗目标,我们必须坚持以战领建,强化战建统筹,加强战略谋划,形成战、建、备一体推进的良好局面,推动军事人员能力素质、结构布局、开发管理全面转型升级。

  实现建军一百年奋斗目标,我们必须加强创新突破,推进高水平科技自立自强,加快关键核心技术攻关,加快战略性、前沿性、颠覆性技术发展,发挥科技创新对我军建设战略支撑作用。

  实现建军一百年奋斗目标,我们必须抓住战略管理这个重点,推进军事管理革命,提高军事系统运行效能和国防资源使用效益;强化规划权威性和执行力,搞好科学统筹,抓好重点任务,加快工作进度,推动战略能力加速生成。

  眺望建军一百年奋斗目标,让我们再次回到4年前草原深处的阅兵场。红旗漫卷,铁流浩荡,习主席的话语坚定有力、响彻世界——

  “我坚信,我们的英雄军队有信心、有能力打败一切来犯之敌!我们的英雄军队有信心、有能力维护国家主权、安全、发展利益!我们的英雄军队有信心、有能力谱写强军事业新篇章……”

  我们有信心、我们有能力!这已为党的一百年光辉历程所证明。

  我们有信心、我们有能力!这也是人民军队走向一百年的誓言。
