The absolute leadership of the party of the military is a basic principle started in the nanchang uprising and in the reformation. It matured. There is a difference between the military army of china and the old militaries of china. Millions of the soldiers and officers have always shown their loyalty to the party. And they have been fighting, they have been overcoming difficulties under the leadership of the party. And, they have become an elite the capability to fight and to win. History of the army, the officers and shoulders often say, so long as we follow the party we will win victory. It has he come a feature of the solidified the strong bond between the peoples army and the people. It also has formed the strong tol of the military army fight for the party and for the people. History shows us that the command should always command the military. It is fundamental. Party ins we have the the peoples army will have a greater election and we will have the might to move forward. The peoples army will always abide by the role of the absolute leadership of the party.

Sole it is the political soul of the communist they of china and it is spirit of the peoples army. We canicult situations, fight and overcome difficulties. Why . It is because we have idealism, marxism, communism, as a strong faith. To the war march against Japanese Aggression, to of liberation, in the sovereignty and territorial integrity, and withnal Disaster Relief the protection of peoples lives and property, the military has always shown devotion. It has also shown devotion to the Economic Development of china and in peacekeeping of the world. Like a beacon over us guiding the military army. History shows us we incorporate that with the marxist theory. We have lofty idealism. It gives us strong power to make devotions. The fortitude is in the spirit of the peoples army. And it is a torch burning in the hearts of the officers and soldiers. The peoples army is unswerved in this idealism. In any situation, they like to fight for the idealism. The peoples army can fight from victory to victory. It shows the power of reform and innovation. The peoples armys history of development is a history of reform and innovation. In the agrarian land, the war against Japanese Aggression. From the added troops in the simpler administration, since the war against Japanese Aggression to the five forces joining the war of liberation and numerous adjustments in the simpler administration reformation. The army has been performing in wars, in development, and they have become stronger. The 16 characters in the red army period, and the success of the war in the war against Japanese Aggression in the smallscale ambush, the war against u. S.

For revolutionary soldiers, we do not believe that there are tasks that we cannot accomplish. There is no difficulties we cannot overcome. There is no enemy we cannot win victory over. We take death as going back home. We believe in bravery. In this way, we have won the belief, the faith of the party. We have won the praise of the people. We have won the respect of the world. History shows that war is not historymaterials, shows that war is not only about its heroes, it is about the spirit.

They will be pra soldiers. If they keep people in their hearts, they will be remembered by people. As a popular song goes, the last ball will ride, and the last piece of cloth will be sent to the soldiers. These men will be sent to join the army. The sun vividly embodies the unity between the army and people. History tells us that when fully supported by people, the peoples army are invincible. As long as we stand on the side of the people, we can win their full and sincere support, and build a wall of iron and steel.
