Looking back on a hundred years of history, we groped in muddy swamps and explored in the ravines of Gobi. 1840 During the Opium War, the British Empire shattered the dream of "going to China" by "building a strong ship and sharpening guns"; 1900, Eight-Nation Alliance pieced together less than 20,000 troops. Even though there were hundreds of thousands of Qing troops and hundreds of thousands of Boxers in Beijing, it still could not stop Beijing from falling. During the 80 years from 1840 to 19 19, China signed more than 900 unequal treaties that humiliated its rights and humiliated its country. A century of humiliation, a century of longing. When the Chinese nation is faced with "a once-in-a-lifetime change" and "a once-in-a-lifetime enemy", our Chinese sons and daughters have a persistent dream, a dream of national rejuvenation.
In today's era, China's development security issues, traditional security threats and non-traditional security threats are intertwined, and the unstable and uncertain factors in the security environment around China are increasing. The dispute over maritime sovereignty, including Diaoyu Island and South China Sea Islands, has gradually become prominent, and various risks facing national security have increased. In this case, it is an inevitable choice to achieve the goal of strengthening the military, effectively deal with the deterrent effect of the rise of great powers, and resolve various complex contradictions and severe challenges. History has proved and will continue to prove that without the strength of national defense, there will be no overall well-off society and national prosperity, and it will be impossible to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation in a complete sense.
The xx Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) blew the clarion call for upholding and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics, giving the "Chinese Dream" a new era connotation and "building a solid national defense and a strong army commensurate with China's international status, national security and development interests". If a country wants to stand on its own feet among the nations of the world, it must be backed by a strong economic strength and a strong national defense force. In the world political arena, a rich country is not equal to a strong country. Kuwait is rich in the world, but its national defense is so weak that it was occupied by Iraq in one day. Dasong Dynasty was a dynasty with developed productive forces and prosperous society in China. Because "swords and guns are put in storage, horses are put in the south mountain", the dynasty finally fell. Today's world is still a law of the jungle world. Without a strong army, the realization of the Chinese dream is just an armchair strategist. The "Chinese dream" is first and foremost a "strong military dream."
Western powers were militarily superior to China and bullied China, leaving modern China devastated. The Chinese nation, suffering from imperialism and colonialism, knows the value of peace. The Chinese nation is a peace-loving nation, and China soldiers will always pursue peace. China people can neither dream of the United States and Europe, nor the Soviet Union, but only dream of China that suits China's reality and the trend of the times. Fundamentally speaking, it is to unswervingly follow the road of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and realize national development and socialist modernization in a peaceful and civilized way.
Dreams need action. Everyone's post is a platform to realize their dreams. Strengthening the country and the army is a pulse of a hundred years: rejuvenating the country and rejuvenating the army. The dreams of the country and the army are closely related to the dreams of individuals. Everyone's development and every job are closely linked to the future of the country and the fate of the army. As far as students are concerned, they have dreams of growth and success. As far as the country is concerned, the dream of strengthening the army and strengthening the country ... these dreams come together, which is the development of the country, the strength of the army and the rejuvenation of the nation. Hope exists in dreams, and dreams realize every small step. Start from yourself, start from your post, work hard, talk less and do more, every little makes a mickle.
Students, study hard, please start today, for our sweet dreams and for the great Chinese dream!
