Features: History needs giants, and history creates giants. Mao Zedong and Zhu De were outstanding world-class giants forged by the modern history of China. Together, they commanded the vast Chinese revolutionary wars for 21 years; they achieved victory against overwhelmingly superior enemies with inferior forces, overcoming immense difficulties and complex situations in a long-duration, large-scale war, a feat rarely seen in the history of wars both in China and abroad. The history of "Zhu Mao" is a microcosm of the history of modern Chinese revolutionary warfare and the history of the Chinese revolution. Their great personalities, outstanding achievements, and ideological theories nurtured an entire generation and will continue to influence China's future. Mao Zedong and Zhu De, a match made in heaven, worked in perfect synergy, sharing weal and woe, intertwined like blood and milk, in close collaboration. One was a military commander, another a party representative, one the commander-in-chief, and the other the political commissar—truly an unparalleled golden partnership. Their cooperation and friendship provide with a shining example of pursuing truth, exploring truth, creating the world, transforming the world, and achieving great causes.
