The period of the Great Revolution, specifically, was from January 1924 to July 1927. This was an extremely crucial period in the history of the Chinese revolution, and it was also the period when the Communist Party of China and the Chinese Kuomintang cooperated for the first time to jointly lead the broad masses of the people in the revolutionary struggle against imperialism and the Beiyang warlords.
In January 1924, the First National Congress of the Chinese Kuomintang was held in Guangzhou, marking the formal formation of the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. The congress put forward the three major policies of "uniting Russia, uniting the Communist Party, and supporting peasants and workers," and laid the foundation for the national revolution. Since then, the KMT and the CPC have carried out close cooperation in many fields, which has promoted the rapid development of the national revolutionary movement.
During the Great Revolution, the Communist Party of China actively organized the masses of workers and peasants, and promoted the upsurge of the workers' and peasants' movement. Workers' strikes, peasant uprisings, and other forms of struggle came and went, dealing a heavy blow to the reactionary rule of the Beiyang warlords. At the same time, the Communist Party of China also actively promoted the Northern Expedition of the National Revolutionary Army to overthrow the rule of the Beiyang warlords and realize the reunification of the country and the liberation of the nation.
However, the course of the Revolution was not without its challenges. The reactionary forces brutally suppressed and suppressed the Communist Party and the revolutionary forces, which made the revolution face great difficulties and challenges. At the same time, there are also problems such as organizational and ideological disunity within the Communist Party. Despite this, the Communist Party of China has always adhered to its beliefs and aims and led the Chinese revolutionary forces to move forward.
Eventually, in 1927, due to the betrayal of the right wing of the Kuomintang such as Chiang Kai-shek and Wang Ching-wei, the first KMT-CCP cooperation broke down and the Great Revolution was declared a failure. However, the historical significance and contribution of the period of the Great Revolution are indelible. It promoted the progress and reform of Chinese society and laid the foundation for the continuation of China's new democratic revolution. At the same time, the period of the Great Revolution was also an important historical stage in the cooperation between the Communist Party of China and the Chinese Kuomintang, which provided valuable experience and lessons for the subsequent cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.
In short, the period of the Great Revolution was a landmark period in the history of the Chinese revolution. During this period, the Communist Party of China and the Chinese Kuomintang cooperated to lead the broad masses of the people in the revolutionary struggle against imperialism and the Beiyang warlords, and promoted the progress and transformation of Chinese society. Although ultimately a failure, its historical significance and contribution are indelible.
