There was an eerie calm in the room, as Zhu De continued the introduction to his speech. Afterwards, he proceeded to launch a scathing attack on Mao, accusing him of various excesses. Simultaneously, a group of PLA troops moved to arrest Mao Zedong under the leadership of Zhou Enlai. Many of Mao's subordinates, proteges and associates were also arrested. Three People's Liberation Army divisions moved into Beijing to secure the capital and to prevent forces loyal to Mao from rescuing him. There were also other PLA deployments across the nation to prevent possible armed uprisings. In a planned move, the People's Daily released a article announcing the retirement of Mao Zedong from active politics, citing health and a need to "move away from active politics."

Malatose Posted September 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 A United China is a Prosperous China! After ascending to the position of Paramount Leader of China, Deng Xiaoping launched a great cultural revolution. "A United China is a Prosperous China!", Deng would declare in a public address to the Chinese people. The Cultural Revolution was designed to unite the Chinese people and dispel rumors of disunity in the Communist Party. Restoring China to it's old historic borders was also one of the main subjects of the Cultural Revolution, which was supported by numerous Party officials. While Deng Xiaoping did not comment on the extension of Chinese borders, he was busy working behind the scenes. As Chairman of the Central Military Commission, he had already given the order for the People's Liberation Army to prepare for combat operations in Tibet, Turkestan, and Shandong. Xiaoping would state to some of his closest advisers, "This will be the perfect test for the new People's Liberation Army." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malatose Posted September 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 (edited) TOP Secret! Report on the Current Status of the People's Liberation Army Mission Statement Consolidate the ruling status of the Communist Party Help ensure China's sovereignty, territorial integrity, and domestic security in order to continue national development Safeguard China's national interests Help maintain World Peace Central Military Command The command and control of the People's Liberation Army (Chinese armed forces) is exercised in name by the 'State CMC', supervised by the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress. The State CMC is nominally considered the supreme military policy-making body and its chairman, elected by the National People's Congress, is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. In reality, command and control of the PLA, however, still resides with the Central Military Commission of the Chinese Communist Party Central Committee—the 'Party CMC'. Both commissions are identical in membership, thus actually forming one identical institution under two different names, in order to fit in both state government and party systems. Both commissions are currently chaired by Deng Xiaoping. The 11-man commission issues directives relating to the PLA, including senior appointments, troop deployments and arms spending. Almost all the members are senior generals, but the most important posts have always been held by the party's most senior leaders to ensure absolute loyalty of the armed forces and to ensure the survival of the regime. The CMC is housed in the Ministry of National Defense compound ("August 1st Building") in western Beijing. Unlike in most countries, the Central Military Commission is not considered as just another ministry. Although China does have a Ministry of National Defense, headed by a Minister of National Defense, it exists solely for liaison with foreign militaries and does not have command authority. The most important chain of command runs from the CMC to the four General Headquarters (General Staff Department, General Political Department, General Logistic Department, General Armament Department) and, in turn, to each of the service branches (ground, navy and air forces) and military regions. Branches of the CMC: PLA General Staff Department PLA General Political Department PLA General Logistics Department PLA General Armaments Department Ministry of National Defense The Ministry of National Defense (MOD) of the People's Republic of China (PRC) is a ministry under the State Council. It is headed by the Minister of National Defense. In contrast to practice in other nations, the MOD does not exercise command authority over the People's Liberation Army (PLA), which is instead subordinate to the Central Military Commission (CMC). Instead, the MOD itself only serves as liaison body representing the CMC and PLA when dealing with foreign militaries in military exchange and cooperation. Its official responsibilities had been to exercise unified administration over the development of the armed forces of the country such as recruitment, organization, equipment, training, scientific military research of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) and the ranking and remuneration of the officers and servicemen. However, in reality these responsibilities are carried out by the four General Headquarters of the PLA, which are under the control of the CMC. The People's Liberation Army The People's Liberation Army Ground Force is the land-based military service branch of the People's Liberation Army and it is the largest and oldest branch of the entire Chinese armed forces.

Agriculture would be the first part of reforms, with the government announcing a collectivization campaign. Reforms were also implemented in urban industry to increase productivity. For example, the central government placed a great deal of resources into the nation's fledgling automotive industry. "Every citizen must own a car in the new China.", a number of officials stated. A dual price system was introduced, in which state-owned industries were allowed to sell any production above the plan quota, and commodities were sold at both plan and market prices, allowing citizens to avoid the shortages. Private businesses were also allowed to operate for the first time they gradually began to make up a greater percentage of industrial output. Price flexibility was also increased, expanding the service sector. The reduction of tariffs, trade barriers and regulations, reformed the banking system, and, large-scale privatization, in which all state enterprises, except a few large monopolies, were liquidated and their assets sold to private investors. In addition, Deng re-opened the Shanghai Stock Exchange. A large number of construction projects were also initiated around the country.
