The newly formed Third Infantry Brigade of the Anbin Column and Jia Yonggen's 361st Division continued to develop and grow in the southern eastern region of Xing'an Province, and soon captured all the residents' gathering points. The population of the local government reached more than 20,000, reaching the first high point in the column's history.

The Central part of the Second Route Army Zhouwei controlled the northeastern region of Xing'an East Province and established the first base with more than 30,000 people. The situation was encouraging.

Ma Zhanshan led the main force of the 361st Division to occupy the western half of Xing'an East Province, and the population under his rule reached more than 40,000. In just half a month, the Anti-Japanese United Army and the Ma Zhanshan Army jointly controlled more than 100,000 square kilometers of mountainous areas. Anti-Japanese troops were active from the Outer Mongolia border to Dagaoyazi (now Gagdachi), presenting a scene of rushingness.

The anti-Japanese military governments in various places redistributed the land forcibly occupied by the immigrants in a timely manner. Those with the original owner returned to the original owner, and the unclaimed land was distributed to tenant farmers without land or with little land, and issued land photos solemnly according to the rules.

In view of the fact that some poor tenants had no land to separate after the distribution of mature land, the military government issued a new government order in a timely manner, allowing farmers to open up land on their own, and promised to return to their own land after one year of farming, and reissue land licenses according to the regulations.

In order to avoid the danger of the Japanese searching mountains and burning crops in the future, most of the newly opened land areas stipulated by Ma Qian'an are in deserted mountains. Although the location is remote, it still cannot stop the enthusiasm of landless farmers.

The new policy was like a spark thrown into the oil pan, bursting into the hearts of the masses, causing an unstoppable raging fire to ignite in their chests. For a moment, the masses who heard the news came to consult filled the simple offices of the military government.

Under the slogans and slogans of "Labor is glorious!" "More labor and more income" and "More production is the front line", the people's enthusiasm for labor was unprecedentedly inspired. One after another, people took their families and led the large livestock for arable land that the local government of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces to get, happily heading towards the designated location.

Although there is only a short time to open up this year and there is no time to make fine land. There must be weeds and bushes on the arable land, the fertile ground force will never disappoint people. Everyone knows that in this treasure land, a stick can grow into towering trees. As long as you are willing to sow seeds and prevent bears and sparrows that harm crops, you can lie in the grain stockpile in autumn.

Looking at the farmers with smiles on their faces, they seemed to have golden soybeans and sorghum all over the mountains and fields before Ma Qian'an, and he couldn't help but sigh. According to this development, after the arrival of autumn, the local Anti-Japanese Allied Forces will no longer be troubled by food shortages. There are three necessary conditions for a force to develop: people, food, and weapons. As long as the survival difficulties are solved, and with sufficient food, the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces will be invincible.

"Only the people, only the people are invincible!"

He wrote a poem if he was not careful! Ma Qian'an suddenly realized what he had just said. This was not his own words. This was what the Chairman said many years later, but it seemed that only this famous saying by the Chairman was in line with the current artistic conception.

After expelling the R-nation immigrants, a large number of dynasties remained. The local dynasty immigrant population even exceeded the real dynasty immigrants. In 1940, the "Kant 7th Annual Provisional National Trends Survey Report" compiled by the "State Council" of the Puppet Manchukuo conducted a statistics on the population of the Puppet Manchukuo. As of 1940, the total population of the Puppet Manchukuo was: 43202880 people (divided into the Chinese and Japanese), of which the Chinese population was: 40858473 people, and the Han population in the Chinese system was: 36870978 people (occupying the Han nationality).

The Chinese population of the puppet Manchukuo is 90.2%, accounting for 85.3% of the total population of the puppet Manchukuo), and the remaining population is Manchu (Manchu, descendants of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty), Mongolian, Hui and other ethnic groups. The population of r is: 2271,495, of which r is: 819,614, Koreans (because North Korea was annexed by r bank, so the population is counted in r bank branch) 1450,384, Taiwanese Han (Taiwan was annexed by r bank branch, and the population is counted in Japanese branch branch) 1497. In addition, there are third countries (3,732 people) and stateless population (69,180 people).

The immigrants of the Korean tribe are different from the R-nation immigrants. They are the targets they can fight for. There are many traditional people with the concept of "restoring the country". Under the propaganda and instigation of the Anti-Japanese Allied Army officer Park Jisong and others, most of the immigrants chose to stay and be with the Anti-Japanese Allied Army. This is a good sign, beyond the most optimistic expectations Ma Qian'an had made.

Ma Zhanshan's work on the upper class of Mongolian people has also achieved results. Since the two movements of Mongolian offerings and privileges, these former Mongolian princes have lost all their rights and wealth. Although he himself acted as a compensation, he set up a foundation and distributed a certain amount of money to these princes and princes on an annual basis. He once promised that these tactful princes and princes would have a "decent" life, but in actual operation, it has completely changed. The specific officials responsible for operating this matter completely ignored these princes and princes who had lost their power and delayed the deduction of the "decent gold" that was already pitiful, resulting in the lives of these princes and princes being completely incomparable to the past.

The princes who were struggling to live a life were extremely hated for R himself, but they were helpless. The individual resistance power was not his opponent. The princes who had fully estimated the consequences did not dare to act rashly. Suddenly, uninvited guests came to their families recently. The news brought by these uninvited guests made them both surprised and excited. What was surprised that the central government army had actually entered the territory of Xing'an East Province on a large scale. What was excited was that Ma Zhanshan extended an olive branch to them, the ex-dignified princes.

Although these princes and nobles have lost power in their current situation, and in their eyes, these princes and nobles have become insignificant figures, it is not.

On this land, feudal traditional habits have strong inertia. In the eyes of some old traditional herders, these declining princes still have deep-rooted authority and influence. What they say or do still receive attention. In some ways, they can still influence some herders, and these herders are willing to be driven by them. Therefore, fighting for their cooperation and support is to open the door to convenience for themselves.

The reason why Ma Zhanshan put in his efforts to win over these princes and nobles was largely influenced by the theory of national united front that Ma Qian'an told him.

Ma Qian'an once systematically talked about the importance and practices of the national united front and made a deep analysis of Ma Zhanshan. In view of the situation of Mongolian compatriots in the "Manchukuo", Ma Qian'an believed that it was necessary to strive for the upper class to win over the Mongolians to participate in the anti-Japanese struggle.

There are five main ethnic groups in the "Manchukuo": Han, Manchu, Mongolian, Korean, and, r themselves for the purpose of ruling, discriminating and suppressing the Han people, which account for the largest proportion of the population, while the other ethnic groups have correspondingly improved their rightful position, immersing them in the vanity of higher ethnic groups, thus achieving the despicable purpose of differentiating and utilizing the various ethnic groups in China.

In July 1933, the "Manchukuo" issued a "Guidelines for the Mongols" to determine the policy of the Mongolians with a population of less than one million and a residential area of ​​one-third of the entire Manchukuo. The basic spirit is to maintain the original old system, continue to use the Mongolian princes and nobles to rule, and use the fierce character of the Mongolian nation to serve the invasion of the Japanese army.

Under the long-term deception of R himself, in addition to some Mongolians who were deeply exploited by R himself and thus saw through R himself, a considerable number of Mongolians felt "proud" about their own situation, and at the same time they also felt alienated from the Han people. The energy spent directly trying to get these people to participate in the anti-Japanese struggle would be amazing, and it is something that the current Anti-Japanese Allied Forces cannot do.

On the contrary, it will take much less energy to directly win over the upper Mongolians to participate in the national anti-Japanese war, and the effect will be much better than to directly win over the people. If these princes and nobles who are resentful to themselves can be convinced, the cause of fighting against Japan will be twice the result with half the effort.

As today, in order to pay the increasingly huge war costs, I had no choice but to adopt the "enhancing productivity" approach, depriving the Mongolian princes and princes of various rights to facilitate the development of land and increase output value and increase taxes. It is understandable from an economic perspective, but in terms of governance, it is not worth the loss, and it is not helpful to destroy the original "stability and unity" situation and offend the Mongolian princes and princes. In Ma Qian'an's eyes, this is a style of killing chickens and getting eggs. I have always paid attention to immediate interests, and have no long-term plans to take one step at a time, and will eventually be killed by my short-sighted eyes.

Such a stupid mistake is really a waste of resources. Any move in the struggle against the enemy will take the initiative. Ma Qian'an has always been happy with the task of finding the enemy's weaknesses to attack his opponent.

The bottom line Ma Qian'an explained was that even if he could not win anti-Japanese cooperation between all the princes and princes, he had to obtain their guarantees not to be enemies with the anti-Japanese army, and he would not incite his followers to actively participate in the action of encircling and suppressing the anti-Japanese team. Ma Qian'an did not want to fight desperately with more than 20,000 Mongolians. They are our brothers, not enemies. Our enemy should be the invaders, and he himself.

The truth was broken and told to Ma Zhanshan. Ma Zhanshan, who was skilled in military governance, quickly understood all his themes and also deeply recognized Ma Qian'an's idea.

Ma Zhanshan sent a group of lobbyists to the residences of princes and nobles everywhere, and launched a powerful propaganda offensive for justice. There is only one theme: it is still time to participate in the Anti-Japanese War. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the National Government will reward you based on your merits and restore your righteous position. If you follow the invaders wholeheartedly, you will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history after the war, and you will choose your own choice.

At the same time, in order to let the increasingly poor princes and nobles taste economic benefits, Ma Zhanshan generously said: He welcomes princes and princes to do business with the anti-Japanese army. The anti-Japanese army needs a large number of horses such as fur, meat, milk, etc., and the purchase price will be twice the market price to ensure that the princes and princes have more than 100% profits to make.

Money is not a problem, Ma Qian'an agreed. If he could do big things with a small amount of money, he would be able to do big things.

The generous economic conditions of Zhengzheng quickly attracted the attention of princes and princes of all sizes. Gradually, one prince after another sent his confidants to Ma Zhanshan, and secret agreements filled Ma Zhanshan's desk.
