Why did we take the countryside as the base and why did we not take the cities as the support base?The cities could not be the base. True, the population there is large, but the city is small, the enemy is all over it. The Assembly, the courts, the prisons, the police, the Army - they were all there. The networks of the enemy's repressive apparatus were concentrated there, and the social composition of the town is very complex.By contrast, the countryside is vast. The enemy is spread thin there. In some villages, there is not even the shadow of the enemy, militarily or otherwise. In some communities, there are only one or two soldiers or police. This means the enemy forces in the countryside are weak. The peasants there are very numerous. The class composition is good. (it) |
