In 1931, Chairman Mao was ostracized, why was he still elected chairman of the Chinese Soviet Republ

As we all know, ** is the first president of the People's Republic of China, in fact, as early as 1931, he was the first chairman of the Chinese Soviet Republic, which is also the origin of the title "**."

So, how did ** become the first chairman of the Chinese Soviet Republic that year?

The core of the Chinese Soviet Republic is the **Soviet region, that is, the **revolutionary base area, which is composed of two red base areas in southern Jiangxi and western Fujian and several counties in northern Guangdong, with an area of 8It is 40,000 square kilometers and has a population of more than 4.5 million. And *** made a huge contribution to the creation of **Soviet districts.

In September 1927, he led the Autumn Harvest Uprising, and then climbed Jinggangshan and created the Red Fourth Army, and later sent troops to southern Jiangxi and established the southern Jiangxi Soviet District.

After the victory of the third anti-"encirclement and suppression" campaign, the southern Jiangxi Soviet region and the western Fujian Soviet region became the largest Soviet region in the country.

Moreover, at that time, there were already more than a dozen revolutionary base areas in various parts of the country, but they were in their own ways and urgently needed to establish a national political power to strengthen their leadership, so it was decided to establish the Chinese Soviet Republic with the Soviet region as the center, and the capital was set in Ruijin, Jiangxi.

From January 1931, the Soviet District Bureau began to prepare for the establishment of the Soviet Republic, and in February, the Politburo elected a candidate for the provisional chairman of the Chinese Soviet Republic, which was *** and then submitted to the Comintern for approval.

However, ** at that time his status in the party was not high, only an alternate member of the Politburo, and there were more than a dozen people in front of him, and ** was not popular in the party at that time, but was ostracized.

At the Gannan Conference held on November 1, 1931, he was also criticized, such as opposing "bookism", but he was accused of "narrow empiricism", and he was labeled with a big hat of "fundamentally denying the theory of Marxism-Leninism" and "the backward thinking of the peasants".

In the work of land reform, the principle of "pumping more to make up for less, and pumping fat to make up for thin" was also accused of being a "rich peasant line", and as a result, the landlords and rich peasants were pushed to the opposite side of the red regime.

Militarily, ** has always advocated guerrilla tactics and has won three great victories against encirclement and suppression, but ** believes that this is "guerrillaism" and ignores "positional warfare" and "street warfare."

In short, the first leader of Wang Ming and Bogu has been crowding out and weakening the position of the first in the party and the army.

For example, in the party, at the Fourth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China held in January 1931, 9 members of the Politburo were elected, none of whom had their names, but only one of the 7 alternate members of the Politburo.

For example, in the military, in the ** Revolutionary Military Committee established in November 1931, the chairman is **, the vice chairman is Wang Jiaxiang, and *** is only one of the 15 members, and there is no military command.

However, the achievements in the long-term revolutionary work are obvious to all, and neither the founding and development of the Red Army nor the creation of the revolutionary base areas are inseparable from the merits of the Red Army, which no one can erase.

Therefore, even if Wang Ming has any opinions about ***, he has to consider the prestige of ***.

Moreover, Wang Ming still understands a little bit, they know that if they push *** up and become the chairman of the Chinese Soviet Republic without real power, they can not only appease the comrades who support ***, but also will not pose a great threat to them, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

In the final analysis, although the chairman of the Chinese Soviet Republic sounds very famous, he actually has not a lot of power, whether in the party or in the army, he did not have much say at that time.

Of course, ** has never been interested in these titles, since I am not allowed to manage the party and the army, then I will concentrate on doing a good job of **, and I can also understand the people's situation more directly and better serve the people.

In the years when he was the chairman, the Chinese Soviet Republic achieved rapid development, especially land reform, and achieved great results, which also accumulated rich experience for our party's land reform work later.
