The meeting focused on rectifying the left-leaning errors in military and organizational affairs, put an end to the domination of Wang Ming's leftist adventurist line in the central leadership, established the correct leadership of the new Central Committee, as represented by Mao Zedong, and saved the Red Army and the Party from destruction at a critical juncture.
