Chapter 49 Chapter 6 The Stars on the Bank of the Yanhe River are Brilliant

However, the leaders of the Comintern were still skeptical about Mao Zedong's becoming King of the Mountain and his guerrilla movement.Because on the one hand, Mao Zedong's practice of building rural base areas and implementing armed separatist regimes was inconsistent with the "urban center theory" advocated by the Soviet Union, and could not be found in the "books" of Marx and Lenin; on the other hand, the main leaders of the Communist Party of China : Chen Duxiu, Qu Qiubai, Li Lisan and others made mistakes one after another. The Comintern lost trust in the leader elected by the Communist Party of China, and decided to select Wang Ming, a student of Sun Yat-sen University in Moscow who had been selected and cultivated by himself, as the leader of the Communist Party of China.Mao Zedong nicknamed these imperial envoys from Moscow behind his back, "Mr. Foreign House".

After Wang Ming and others came to power, they insisted on rioting in the cities, hoping to win "one or several provinces first." After failing in vain and losing their foothold, the interim central government was forced to move to the countryside.But at this time, although some leaders came to the rural revolutionary base areas, their "hearts" did not follow, ignoring the reality of the countryside, using the "urban center theory" to guide the revolution, and forcing the implementation of subjectivism.Mao Zedong, on the other hand, has been beaten and squeezed out for a long time. In his own words, he was "thrown into the latrine, and it stinks."

At the Zunyi Conference, Mao Zedong was elected as a member of the Politburo Standing Committee for the first time and began to enter the central leadership group.Since then, on important issues, most of Mao Zedong's ideas were agreed by other comrades.His command of the army and major decisions were all adopted by Zhang Wentian, who was "in charge of the overall responsibility". Therefore, after the Zunyi Meeting, Mao Zedong became the actual leader of the party. However, after Mao Zedong was accepted by the whole party, it still took a long time to establish his prestige in the whole party.

At the Zunyi meeting, He Kaifeng, an alternate member of the Politburo, had a prejudice against Mao Zedong, accusing Mao Zedong of "not being smart in the way of fighting" and "at most reading "Sun Tzu's Art of War""! After the Zunyi meeting, he was still indignant about criticizing the "Left" errors, saying: "Who is right and who is wrong, let's wait and see!" Then he said to Bogu: "I don't agree with the current change. I think the past line is still correct...our seal cannot be handed over!" It is precisely because many people do not understand Mao Zedong that Zhang Wentian, who split from the "Left" line, was elected at the Zunyi meeting instead of the leader of Mao Zedong's entire party.
