Many action slogans can easily reflect people's psychological wishes at that time. A slogan that touches people's hearts often has an inspiring effect. Having people's hearts united is more important than anything else.
Revolution is always full of blood and full of difficulties and obstacles. How much effort did our revolutionary ancestors put in to overthrow the Qing government and end the autocratic monarchy system for so many years?
In the course of China's history, China in the 20th century and China in the 21st century are two stark contrasts. It is difficult for us in the 21st century to imagine the hardships of our ancestors.
