September，1926

Mao Zedong published his article "The National Revolution and the Peasant Movement,” in which he pointed out that “the peasant question is the central issue of the national revolution" and that “the workers, students and middle and small merchants in the cities should launch a fierce attack on the comprador class and direct their attack on imperial- ism; leaders of the progressive working class and of all other revolutionary classes must be aware that the warlord and imperialist forces will never topple unless the peasants in the rural areas rise to overthrow the privileges of the patriarchal feudal landlord class.”
