I recorded Mao Zedong’s experience from 1910 when he came out of Shaoshan at the age of 16 to when he was 33 years old in 1927 when he launched the Autumn Harvest Uprising. In this seventeen-year period, Mao Zedong went from an ambitious young man to a leader in his own right. In addition to his talents, Mao Zedong also had many experiences and acquired learning of his own. For example, he had experience as a soldier in Changsha, which helped him later deal with the collapse of the army, and also played a role in his future use of troops. For another example, Mao Zedong read extensively. For a period of time, he walked three kilometers every day to read in the provincial library, which enabled Mao to accumulate a lot of book knowledge and greatly expanded his horizons. Mao Zedong not only valued book knowledge, he also paid attention to wordless reading. During the summer vacation, he traveled to surrounding Ningxiang, Yuanjiang, Yueyang and other places to study. This also gave Mao Zedong the concept of combining book knowledge with practice. .
Mao Zedong used 17 years of accumulation to lay the foundation for his future development. Although he is a talented person, he also needs hard work.
