Gutian conference spirit:

Ideological party building is the core of Gutian conference spirit, and the principle of ideological party building is adhered to. Insisting on building the Party ideologically, the fundamental task is to educate the proletariat with the basic viewpoints and positions of Marxism, so that it can overcome the wrong thoughts of non-proletarians, improve class consciousness, establish a Marxist outlook on life and the world, and ensure the implementation of the Party's correct line and principles.

Adhering to the principle of ideological party building is the basis and fundamental requirement for improving the party's ruling ability and level, so as to maintain the party's advanced nature forever. To create a new people's army and uphold the party's absolute leadership over the army, it is the party that commands the gun, not the gun that commands the party.

Adhering to the party's absolute leadership over the army is an important symbol to distinguish the new army from the old warlord army, and it is a complete denial of warlordism in the old army. All actions of the army must obey the command of the Central Committee and the Central Military Commission, and the army must never organize activities independently from the leadership of the party, let alone allow individuals to manage and mobilize the army without authorization.

Adhere to the ideological line of seeking truth from facts and proceeding from reality. Proceeding from reality, seeking truth from facts is the essence of Mao Zedong Thought and the spirit of Gutian Conference.

The spirit of Gutian Conference is the great spirit formed by China's * * * production party during the Agrarian Revolutionary War. It is an important achievement of Marxism in China, which correctly solved the misunderstanding of the Party and the Red Army under the historical conditions at that time, and has a milestone significance in the history of Party and Red Army construction.

Ideological party building is the core of Gutian conference spirit, and its soul is seeking truth from facts. The spirit of Gutian conference still has great reference significance and function to strengthen the construction of our party and army today.
