Historical significance:

The Xi incident and its peaceful settlement have played an important historical role in the social development of China and an irreplaceable role in the social development of China.

Its occurrence and peaceful settlement basically ended the ten-year-long civil war and started a new stage of the second cooperation between the two parties, which contributed to the establishment of the anti-Japanese national United front, greatly inspired the anti-Japanese enthusiasm of the people of China, laid the foundation for the national War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, and became a turning point from the civil war to the anti-Japanese national war and a hub for the change of the situation.

This is the turning point of social contradictions in China. The national contradiction between China and China became the main contradiction in Japanese society, and China entered a state of war with Japan ahead of schedule. It is the turning point of China from civil war to War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, China from division to unification, and China from autocracy to gradual democracy. This series of turning points laid the foundation for War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory.

At the same time, China's * * * production party has obtained the opportunity of legal survival, respite and growth, which has opened up the prospects for the development and growth of China people's revolutionary forces led by China's * * * production party and established the leading position and core position of China's * * production party in China's social development. Shortly after the Xi incident, Mao Zedong said at the the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee meeting, "We actually achieved a leading position in the Xi incident.".
