| + | Jinggang Mountain | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==Overview== | ||
| + | Jinggang Mountain is located in the southwest of Jiangxi Province, at the midsection of the Luoxiao Mountains, where the provinces of Hunan and Jiangxi meet. In ancient times, it was referred to as "the crossroads of Chen, Heng, Xiang, and Gan, at the heart of the thousand-mile Luoxiao Range." Surrounded by mountains on all sides, the terrain resembles a well, with a small stream flowing nearby. The Hakka people who migrated here from Guangdong referred to the stream as "Jiang" (meaning river) and named the nearby mountain "Jingjiang Mountain" (井江山). The village was also called "Jingjiang Mountain Village." Over time, due to the similarity in pronunciation between "Jiang" (江) and "Gang" (冈) in the Hakka dialect, people began calling it "Jinggang Mountain." | ||
| + | Jinggang Mountain is the cradle of the revolution. The establishment of the Jinggang Mountain Revolutionary Base ignited the initial sparks of armed struggle by workers and peasants, opening a new chapter in China's revolutionary history. It fostered the invaluable Jinggang Mountain Spirit, left behind numerous classic red stories, and preserved over 100 revolutionary sites. From that point onward, the Communist Party of China gradually matured, discovered the correct revolutionary path, and embarked on the great journey of adapting Marxism to the Chinese context. This laid the foundation for the Party to lead the people in creating the Chinese miracle. In February 2016, during his visit to Jiangxi, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized, “The most precious legacy from the Jinggang Mountain period is the timeless Jinggang Mountain Spirit.” He further stated, “We must adapt this spirit to the conditions of the new era, adhering to unwavering pursuit of ideals, seeking truth and innovation, overcoming challenges through hard work, and relying on the people for victory. In doing so, we can ensure that the Jinggang Mountain Spirit continues to shine brightly in our times.” | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==The History of Jinggang Mountain== | ||
| + | Jinggang Mountain is a mountainous region characterized by its moderate peaks and rugged terrain. It is located at the junction of Hunan, Jiangxi, and Guangdong provinces. During the Qing Dynasty, the Jinggang Mountain area belonged to the borderlands of Yongzhou Prefecture in Hunan, Ji’an Prefecture in Jiangxi, and Shaozhou Prefecture in Guangdong, making it a region of significant strategic importance. | ||
| + | In the late Qing Dynasty, as foreign powers invaded China and the Qing government proved increasingly corrupt and incompetent, Chinese society fell into a state of turmoil. Various grassroots resistance movements arose across the country. Jinggang Mountain was no exception. Local farmers and miners frequently staged uprisings against the landlords and local authorities, creating a revolutionary atmosphere that laid the groundwork for the area's later significance in Chinese history. | ||
| + | In the spring of 1927, the Autumn Harvest Uprising forces led by Mao Zedong launched a rebellion in the Pingjiang area of Hunan Province. However, the uprising was soon defeated by the Kuomintang army. By October 1927, Mao Zedong and his comrades were forced to leave Hunan and retreat to the Jinggang Mountain area in Jiangxi Province. There, they established the first rural revolutionary base in China, centered on Ninggang County, known as the Jinggang Mountain Revolutionary Base. They set up Lanhuaping as their stronghold and pioneered the revolutionary strategy of "encircling the cities from the countryside and seizing power through armed struggle," a path uniquely suited to China's conditions. From that moment, the previously obscure Jinggang Mountain was inscribed in the annals of Chinese revolutionary history. | ||
| + | At that time, the Jinggang Mountain region was under blockade and suppression by Kuomintang forces, making life and operations exceedingly difficult for Mao Zedong and his comrades. Despite these hardships, Mao never wavered in his revolutionary faith. He actively mobilized the local population and conducted guerrilla warfare, gradually solidifying the revolutionary base in the Jinggang Mountain region. | ||
| + | Under Mao Zedong's leadership, the revolutionary forces in the Jinggang Mountain region gradually grew stronger. With the support of the local population, they launched a land revolution and fought against imperialism and feudalism. A comprehensive revolutionary government and military organization were established, culminating in the creation of the Jinggang Mountain Revolutionary Base. | ||
| + | The Jinggang Mountain Revolutionary Base was the first major revolutionary base established by the Communist Party of China (CPC) in southern China. Its establishment marked a significant step forward in the CPC's revolutionary efforts in the region, laying a solid foundation for future successes in the Chinese revolution. | ||
| + | Building on the foundation of the Jinggang Mountain Revolutionary Base, Mao Zedong gradually developed a formidable guerrilla force and established a comprehensive revolutionary military organization. Through guerrilla warfare, they consistently struck at Kuomintang forces and landlord militias, expanding the influence of the revolutionary base. Simultaneously, they actively engaged in mobilizing the local population, organizing grassroots bodies such as rural revolutionary committees and workers' movement committees, thereby achieving comprehensive leadership over the local masses. | ||
| + | In 1930, the Kuomintang launched a large-scale campaign to encircle and suppress the Jinggang Mountain Revolutionary Base, plunging it into a severe crisis. Despite the challenging circumstances, Mao Zedong and other revolutionary leaders organized the defense of Jinggang Mountain. In this critical battle, they successfully repelled the Kuomintang’s offensive. | ||
| + | The defense of Jinggang Mountain was a pivotal battle in the history of the Chinese Revolution. It marked the consolidation and development of the Jinggang Mountain Revolutionary Base and exemplified the unyielding revolutionary spirit of the Communist Party of China. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==Jinggang Mountain Spirit== | ||
| + | Jinggang Mountain Spirit is one of the core revolutionary spirits born during the Land Revolution period at the Jinggang Mountain Revolutionary Base. Its essence can be summarized in five key points: | ||
| + | 1. Unwavering revolutionary faith. | ||
| + | 2. Absolute adherence to the leadership of the Party. | ||
| + | 3. A deep connection with and reliance on the people. | ||
| + | 4. A pragmatic approach grounded in reality. | ||
| + | 5. A spirit of hard work and perseverance. | ||
| + | |||
| + | (1) Resolute Pursuit of Ideals: The Soul of Jinggang Mountain Spirit | ||
| + | Faith in ideals is not only the spiritual backbone of an individual but also the foundational support for a political party and a nation. “Resolute faith” highlights the essential ideological qualities required of Communist Party members, serving as a significant benchmark for assessing their ideological qualifications. This steadfast belief connects the hearts of the Communist Party of China and the people, forging a close and inseparable bond that constitutes the soul of Jinggang Mountain Spirit. | ||
| + | (2) Seeking Truth and Pioneering New Paths: The Core of Jinggang Mountain Spirit | ||
| + | Seeking truth from facts is a fundamental principle of Marxism and the essence of Mao Zedong Thought. During the Jinggang Mountain struggle, in the face of repeated military offensives by the Kuomintang reactionaries, the Party led the Red Army to adopt strategies such as “dividing forces to mobilize the masses, concentrating forces to confront the enemy,” and tactical principles like “when the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy camps, we harass; when the enemy tires, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue.” These strategies dealt severe blows to the enemy and gradually secured victories. The Party's actions demonstrated that, although these tactics could not be found in books, they were highly effective, showcasing a scientific spirit rooted in practicality and seeking truth from facts. | ||
| + | (3) Hard Work and Perseverance: The Cornerstone of Jinggang Mountain Spirit | ||
| + | “Self-reliance and hard work” is a fine tradition of the Communist Party of China and the political essence of its members. In 1928, although the revolutionary base achieved a bumper harvest in grain production, shortages of essential supplies like salt, fabric, and medicine remained significant challenges for the Red Army. In response, the Party led soldiers and civilians to extract salt from old walls, collect herbs from the mountains, and manufacture simple weapons using rudimentary tools to address the scarcity of resources. This spirit of self-reliance and perseverance in overcoming difficulties became the cornerstone of Jinggang Mountain Spirit. | ||
| + | (4) Relying on the Masses: A Crucial Strategy for Victory | ||
| + | Marxist views on the masses hold that the people are the creators of history. The mass line emphasizes “everything for the people and everything relying on the people.” In the Jinggang Mountain Revolutionary Base, where the terrain was complex and natural conditions were harsh, overcoming these challenges and resisting enemy offensives would not have been possible without the support and assistance of the people. The Party’s close connection with the masses, adhering to the principle of serving and relying on the people, was the key to achieving repeated victories in the revolutionary struggle. | ||

| + | 概览 | ||
| + | 井冈山,地处江西省西南部,湘赣两省交界的罗霄山脉中段,古有“郴衡湘赣之交,千里罗霄之腹”之称。由于这里四面环山,地形好像一口井,旁边又有一条小溪流过,迁徙至此的广东客家人称溪为“江”,便把旁边的山叫“井江山”,村子也就叫做“井江山村”。又因客家口音“江”与“冈”同音,天长日久,人们就称之为“井冈山”了。 | ||
| + | 井冈山是革命的摇篮。井冈山革命根据地的建立,点燃了工农武装割据的星星之火,翻开了中国革命的新篇章,孕育形成了宝贵的井冈山精神,也留下了一大批经典红色故事和100多处革命旧址。自此,中国共产党逐步走向成熟,找到了正确的革命道路,实现了马克思主义中国化的伟大开篇,为党领导人民创造中国奇迹奠定了基础。2016年2月,习近平总书记考察江西时指出,“井冈山时期留给我们最为宝贵的财富就是跨越时空的井冈山精神。”“我们要结合新的时代条件,坚持坚定执着追理想、实事求是闯新路、艰苦奋斗攻难关、依靠群众求胜利,让井冈山精神放射出新的时代光芒。” | ||
| + | |||
| + | 井冈山的历史 | ||
| + | |||
| + | 井冈山是一个山峰不高、地势险峻的山区,地处湖南、江西和广东三省交界处。在清朝时期,井冈山地区属于湖南省永州府、江西省吉安府和广东省韶州府的交界地带,是一个地理位置十分重要的区域。在清朝末年,由于外国列强的侵略和清政府的腐败无能,中国社会处于动荡不安的状态,各种民间反抗运动此起彼伏。井冈山地区也不例外,当地农民和矿工经常发生反抗土地贵族和官府的斗争,形成了一种具有强烈革命性质的民间运动。 | ||
| + | 1927年春天,毛泽东率领的秋收起义部队在湖南平江县一带发动起义,但不久被国民党军队击败。1927年10月,毛泽东等人被迫离开湖南,逃到了江西井冈山一带,创建以宁冈县为中心的中国第一个农村革命根据地——井冈山革命根据地,建立兰花坪。开辟了“以农村包围城市、武装夺取政权”的具有中国特色的革命道路,从此鲜为人知的井冈山被载入中国革命历史的光荣史册。当时的井冈山地区处于国民党军队的封锁和围剿之中,毛泽东等人的生活和行动都十分困难。但是,毛泽东并没有放弃革命的信念,他积极组织群众,开展游击战争,逐渐巩固了在井冈山地区的革命根据地。 | ||
| + | 在毛泽东的领导下,井冈山地区的革命力量逐渐壮大。他们在当地群众的支持下,开展了土地革命和反帝反封建的斗争,建立了一套完整的革命政权和军事组织,形成了井冈山革命根据地。井冈山革命根据地是中国共产党在南方地区的第一个较大的革命根据地,它的建立标志着中国共产党在南方地区的革命事业迈出了重要的一步。 | ||
| + | 在井冈山革命根据地的基础上,毛泽东逐渐发展了一支强大的游击队,并建立了一套完整的革命军事组织。他们通过游击战争,不断地打击国民党军队和地主武装,扩大了革命根据地的影响范围。同时,他们还积极开展群众工作,组织群众建立了农村革命委员会和工人运动委员会等群众组织,实现了对当地群众的全面领导。 | ||
| + | 1930年,国民党军队对井冈山革命根据地发动了大规模的围剿,井冈山革命根据地陷入了危机之中。毛泽东等革命领袖在极其困难的情况下,组织了井冈山保卫战,最终击退了国民党军队的进攻。井冈山保卫战是中国革命史上的一次重要战役,它标志着井冈山革命根据地的巩固和发展,也展示了中国共产党人顽强不屈的革命精神。 | ||
| + | |||
| + | 井冈山精神 | ||
| + | |||
| + | 井冈山精神是红色革命精神之一,诞生于土地革命时期的井冈山根据地。井冈山精神的内涵可以用五句话来概括:一是坚定不移的革命信念。二是坚持党的绝对领导。三是密切联系人民群众的思想作风。四是一切从实际出发的思想路线。五是艰苦奋斗的作风。 | ||
| + | (一)坚定执着追理想是井冈山精神的灵魂 | ||
| + | 理想信念,是一个人的精神支柱,也是一个政党和一个国家的精神支柱。“‘坚定信念’,强调的是共产党人必备的思想素养,它是衡量党员干部思想是否合格的显著标志”。正是这种信念的坚守联结了中国共产党人和广大人民群众的内心,形成了血肉相依的密切关系,铸牢了井冈山精神的灵魂。 | ||
| + | (二)实事求是闯新路是井冈山精神的核心 | ||
| + | 实事求是是马克思主义的根本观点,也是毛泽东思想的精髓。在井冈山斗争时期里,面对国民党反动派一次又一次的军事进攻,我党领导红军实行的“分兵以发动群众,集中以应付敌人”,以及“敌进我退、敌驻我扰、敌疲我打、敌退我追”等战略战术原则,给敌人以沉重打击,逐步取得战斗胜利。我党用实际行动表明这些虽然是在书上找不到的战术,却是红军行之有效的策略,彰显了从实际出发、实事求是的科学精神。 | ||
| + | (三)艰苦奋斗攻难关是井冈山精神的基石 | ||
| + | “自力更生,艰苦奋斗”是中国共产党的优良传统,也是中国共产党人的政治本色。1928 年,根据地种植的粮食终于获得了大丰收,但是食盐、布匹、药品的缺乏,依然是困扰红军的大问题,为此中国共产党带领军民用老墙上的土熬成硝盐,到山上采集草药,还用简陋的工具制成简单的武器用来缓解当时的物资缺乏情况,在困境中求生存。中国共产党人自力更生、艰苦奋斗的革命精神铸成了井冈山精神的伟大基石。 | ||
| + | (四)依靠群众求胜利是井冈山精神的重要法宝 | ||
| + | 马克思主义群众观认为人民群众是历史的创造者。群众路线,就是一切为了人民、一切依靠人民。由于井冈山革命根据地地形复杂,克服艰难困苦的自然条件,抵御敌人的层层进攻,这一切都离不开人民群众的帮助与支持。我党正是因为有着与人民群众的血肉联系,坚持一切为了人民、一切依靠人民的人民观,才能在革命斗争中取得一次次的胜利。 | ||

Jinggang Mountain
Overview
Jinggang Mountain is located in the southwest of Jiangxi Province, at the midsection of the Luoxiao Mountains, where the provinces of Hunan and Jiangxi meet. In ancient times, it was referred to as "the crossroads of Chen, Heng, Xiang, and Gan, at the heart of the thousand-mile Luoxiao Range." Surrounded by mountains on all sides, the terrain resembles a well, with a small stream flowing nearby. The Hakka people who migrated here from Guangdong referred to the stream as "Jiang" (meaning river) and named the nearby mountain "Jingjiang Mountain" (井江山). The village was also called "Jingjiang Mountain Village." Over time, due to the similarity in pronunciation between "Jiang" (江) and "Gang" (冈) in the Hakka dialect, people began calling it "Jinggang Mountain." Jinggang Mountain is the cradle of the revolution. The establishment of the Jinggang Mountain Revolutionary Base ignited the initial sparks of armed struggle by workers and peasants, opening a new chapter in China's revolutionary history. It fostered the invaluable Jinggang Mountain Spirit, left behind numerous classic red stories, and preserved over 100 revolutionary sites. From that point onward, the Communist Party of China gradually matured, discovered the correct revolutionary path, and embarked on the great journey of adapting Marxism to the Chinese context. This laid the foundation for the Party to lead the people in creating the Chinese miracle.

In doing so, we can ensure that the Jinggang Mountain Spirit continues to shine brightly in our times.”
The History of Jinggang Mountain
Jinggang Mountain is a mountainous region characterized by its moderate peaks and rugged terrain. It is located at the junction of Hunan, Jiangxi, and Guangdong provinces. During the Qing Dynasty, the Jinggang Mountain area belonged to the borderlands of Yongzhou Prefecture in Hunan, Ji’an Prefecture in Jiangxi, and Shaozhou Prefecture in Guangdong, making it a region of significant strategic importance. In the late Qing Dynasty, as foreign powers invaded China and the Qing government proved increasingly corrupt and incompetent, Chinese society fell into a state of turmoil. Various grassroots resistance movements arose across the country. Jinggang Mountain was no exception. Local farmers and miners frequently staged uprisings against the landlords and local authorities, creating a revolutionary atmosphere that laid the groundwork for the area's later significance in Chinese history.

Jinggang Mountain Spirit
Jinggang Mountain Spirit is one of the core revolutionary spirits born during the Land Revolution period at the Jinggang Mountain Revolutionary Base. Its essence can be summarized in five key points: 1. Unwavering revolutionary faith. 2. Absolute adherence to the leadership of the Party. 3. A deep connection with and reliance on the people. 4. A pragmatic approach grounded in reality. 5. A spirit of hard work and perseverance.
(1) Resolute Pursuit of Ideals: The Soul of Jinggang Mountain Spirit
Faith in ideals is not only the spiritual backbone of an individual but also the foundational support for a political party and a nation. “Resolute faith” highlights the essential ideological qualities required of Communist Party members, serving as a significant benchmark for assessing their ideological qualifications. This steadfast belief connects the hearts of the Communist Party of China and the people, forging a close and inseparable bond that constitutes the soul of Jinggang Mountain Spirit.
(2) Seeking Truth and Pioneering New Paths: The Core of Jinggang Mountain Spirit
Seeking truth from facts is a fundamental principle of Marxism and the essence of Mao Zedong Thought. During the Jinggang Mountain struggle, in the face of repeated military offensives by the Kuomintang reactionaries, the Party led the Red Army to adopt strategies such as “dividing forces to mobilize the masses, concentrating forces to confront the enemy,” and tactical principles like “when the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy camps, we harass; when the enemy tires, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue.” These strategies dealt severe blows to the enemy and gradually secured victories. The Party's actions demonstrated that, although these tactics could not be found in books, they were highly effective, showcasing a scientific spirit rooted in practicality and seeking truth from facts.
(3) Hard Work and Perseverance: The Cornerstone of Jinggang Mountain Spirit
“Self-reliance and hard work” is a fine tradition of the Communist Party of China and the political essence of its members. In 1928, although the revolutionary base achieved a bumper harvest in grain production, shortages of essential supplies like salt, fabric, and medicine remained significant challenges for the Red Army. In response, the Party led soldiers and civilians to extract salt from old walls, collect herbs from the mountains, and manufacture simple weapons using rudimentary tools to address the scarcity of resources. This spirit of self-reliance and perseverance in overcoming difficulties became the cornerstone of Jinggang Mountain Spirit.
(4) Relying on the Masses: A Crucial Strategy for Victory
Marxist views on the masses hold that the people are the creators of history. The mass line emphasizes “everything for the people and everything relying on the people.” In the Jinggang Mountain Revolutionary Base, where the terrain was complex and natural conditions were harsh, overcoming these challenges and resisting enemy offensives would not have been possible without the support and assistance of the people. The Party’s close connection with the masses, adhering to the principle of serving and relying on the people, was the key to achieving repeated victories in the revolutionary struggle.

概览
井冈山,地处江西省西南部,湘赣两省交界的罗霄山脉中段,古有“郴衡湘赣之交,千里罗霄之腹”之称。由于这里四面环山,地形好像一口井,旁边又有一条小溪流过,迁徙至此的广东客家人称溪为“江”,便把旁边的山叫“井江山”,村子也就叫做“井江山村”。又因客家口音“江”与“冈”同音,天长日久,人们就称之为“井冈山”了。 井冈山是革命的摇篮。井冈山革命根据地的建立,点燃了工农武装割据的星星之火,翻开了中国革命的新篇章,孕育形成了宝贵的井冈山精神,也留下了一大批经典红色故事和100多处革命旧址。自此,中国共产党逐步走向成熟,找到了正确的革命道路,实现了马克思主义中国化的伟大开篇,为党领导人民创造中国奇迹奠定了基础。2016年2月,习近平总书记考察江西时指出,“井冈山时期留给我们最为宝贵的财富就是跨越时空的井冈山精神。”“我们要结合新的时代条件,坚持坚定执着追理想、实事求是闯新路、艰苦奋斗攻难关、依靠群众求胜利,让井冈山精神放射出新的时代光芒。”
井冈山的历史
井冈山是一个山峰不高、地势险峻的山区,地处湖南、江西和广东三省交界处。在清朝时期,井冈山地区属于湖南省永州府、江西省吉安府和广东省韶州府的交界地带,是一个地理位置十分重要的区域。在清朝末年,由于外国列强的侵略和清政府的腐败无能,中国社会处于动荡不安的状态,各种民间反抗运动此起彼伏。井冈山地区也不例外,当地农民和矿工经常发生反抗土地贵族和官府的斗争,形成了一种具有强烈革命性质的民间运动。 1927年春天,毛泽东率领的秋收起义部队在湖南平江县一带发动起义,但不久被国民党军队击败。1927年10月,毛泽东等人被迫离开湖南,逃到了江西井冈山一带,创建以宁冈县为中心的中国第一个农村革命根据地——井冈山革命根据地,建立兰花坪。开辟了“以农村包围城市、武装夺取政权”的具有中国特色的革命道路,从此鲜为人知的井冈山被载入中国革命历史的光荣史册。当时的井冈山地区处于国民党军队的封锁和围剿之中,毛泽东等人的生活和行动都十分困难。但是,毛泽东并没有放弃革命的信念,他积极组织群众,开展游击战争,逐渐巩固了在井冈山地区的革命根据地。 在毛泽东的领导下,井冈山地区的革命力量逐渐壮大。他们在当地群众的支持下,开展了土地革命和反帝反封建的斗争,建立了一套完整的革命政权和军事组织,形成了井冈山革命根据地。井冈山革命根据地是中国共产党在南方地区的第一个较大的革命根据地,它的建立标志着中国共产党在南方地区的革命事业迈出了重要的一步。 在井冈山革命根据地的基础上,毛泽东逐渐发展了一支强大的游击队,并建立了一套完整的革命军事组织。他们通过游击战争,不断地打击国民党军队和地主武装,扩大了革命根据地的影响范围。同时,他们还积极开展群众工作,组织群众建立了农村革命委员会和工人运动委员会等群众组织,实现了对当地群众的全面领导。 1930年,国民党军队对井冈山革命根据地发动了大规模的围剿,井冈山革命根据地陷入了危机之中。毛泽东等革命领袖在极其困难的情况下,组织了井冈山保卫战,最终击退了国民党军队的进攻。井冈山保卫战是中国革命史上的一次重要战役,它标志着井冈山革命根据地的巩固和发展,也展示了中国共产党人顽强不屈的革命精神。
井冈山精神
井冈山精神是红色革命精神之一,诞生于土地革命时期的井冈山根据地。井冈山精神的内涵可以用五句话来概括:一是坚定不移的革命信念。二是坚持党的绝对领导。三是密切联系人民群众的思想作风。四是一切从实际出发的思想路线。五是艰苦奋斗的作风。
(一)坚定执着追理想是井冈山精神的灵魂
理想信念,是一个人的精神支柱,也是一个政党和一个国家的精神支柱。“‘坚定信念’,强调的是共产党人必备的思想素养,它是衡量党员干部思想是否合格的显著标志”。正是这种信念的坚守联结了中国共产党人和广大人民群众的内心,形成了血肉相依的密切关系,铸牢了井冈山精神的灵魂。
(二)实事求是闯新路是井冈山精神的核心
实事求是是马克思主义的根本观点,也是毛泽东思想的精髓。在井冈山斗争时期里,面对国民党反动派一次又一次的军事进攻,我党领导红军实行的“分兵以发动群众,集中以应付敌人”,以及“敌进我退、敌驻我扰、敌疲我打、敌退我追”等战略战术原则,给敌人以沉重打击,逐步取得战斗胜利。我党用实际行动表明这些虽然是在书上找不到的战术,却是红军行之有效的策略,彰显了从实际出发、实事求是的科学精神。
(三)艰苦奋斗攻难关是井冈山精神的基石
“自力更生,艰苦奋斗”是中国共产党的优良传统,也是中国共产党人的政治本色。1928 年,根据地种植的粮食终于获得了大丰收,但是食盐、布匹、药品的缺乏,依然是困扰红军的大问题,为此中国共产党带领军民用老墙上的土熬成硝盐,到山上采集草药,还用简陋的工具制成简单的武器用来缓解当时的物资缺乏情况,在困境中求生存。中国共产党人自力更生、艰苦奋斗的革命精神铸成了井冈山精神的伟大基石。
(四)依靠群众求胜利是井冈山精神的重要法宝
马克思主义群众观认为人民群众是历史的创造者。群众路线,就是一切为了人民、一切依靠人民。由于井冈山革命根据地地形复杂,克服艰难困苦的自然条件,抵御敌人的层层进攻,这一切都离不开人民群众的帮助与支持。我党正是因为有着与人民群众的血肉联系,坚持一切为了人民、一切依靠人民的人民观,才能在革命斗争中取得一次次的胜利。
