  First, the strategic characteristics of united front work in southern bet365 mobile.With the development of the Anti-Japanese War,The jurisdiction of southern bet365 mobile Province has changed several times according to the geographical area,The general location is "east of Pinghan Road、West of Jinpu Road、South of Cangshi Road、North of Zhanghe River,The Cross-Wei Canal includes the northern part of Shandong,More than 40 counties in total,Area about 2.80,000 square kilometers,Population nearly 8 million”。("Construction of the Revolutionary Base Area in Southern bet365 mobile" Part 1,Chinese Communist Party History Press 2018 Edition,Page 3) The southern bet365 mobile base area has strategic advantages。First,From the perspective of properties,Jinan serves as the material supply base in the Taihang Mountains,Fertile soil、Rich resources,Is an important grain production in bet365 mobile、Cotton、Salt Area,Among them, "cotton accounted for 80% of the cultivated land before the war... 40% of the cotton in North China used to be produced here... the whole region produced a lot of nitrate and salt,Take soil and pour salt,You can get salt,You can also get saltpeter,The military needs food and the people need it”。("Detailed Map of Shanxi-bet365 mobile-Shandong-Henan Border Region",North China Xinhua Bookstore 1947 edition,Page 25-26) Secondly,In terms of location,Looking to the west of southern bet365 mobile Province and close to Taihang,Bordering Shandong in the east,Northern Henan in the south,North of Jizhong,Served as a bridge connecting various anti-Japanese base areas in North China。Not only that,The southern bet365 mobile base area directly threatens the enemy's rule in northern China,As Yang Xiufeng pointed out,Jinan “has become the heart of the enemy and puppets,North can go straight to Pingjin,The East and West can control two important traffic lifelines in North and Central China - the Ping-Han-Jin-Pu Railway...Today's southern bet365 mobile...occupies an important position in the future strategic stalemate and counter-offensive phases."。("Yang Xiufeng Wencun",People's Court Press 1997 Edition,Page 122)

After the outbreak of the all-out war,In response to the complex domestic political and military situation,August 25, 1937,The enlarged meeting of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee adopted Mao Zedong’s report on “Mobilizing All Forces to Struggle for Victory in the War of Resistance”,And requested: “On the basis of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party,Establish an anti-Japanese national united front of all parties, factions, all walks of life and all armies across the country,Leading the Anti-Japanese War,Sincere unity,We went to the national crisis together。” ("Selected Works of Mao Zedong" Volume 2,People's Publishing House 1991 Edition,Page 356) In order to better implement the central government’s united front work spirit,November 15, 1937,The Northern Bureau of the Communist Party of China in the document "Decision on the Current Situation and the Tasks of the North China Party",Proposed that “our party should qualify as the largest political party in North China,The democratic anti-Japanese regime and the new anti-Japanese armed forces came out to establish a united front。Establish border region governments in various guerrilla war bases、The transformation and establishment of military region headquarters and county, district and township governments”。(Part 2 of "Selected Documents of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on the Anti-Japanese National United Front",Archival Publishing House 1986 edition,Page 58) April 21, 1938,According to the development of the Anti-Japanese War,Mao Zedong、Zhang Wentian、Liu Shaoqi composed "About bet365 mobile"、Instructions for the massive development of guerrilla warfare in the Shandong plains》,And requested: "The Party and the Eighth Route Army troops are in bet365 mobile、Shandong Plain Area,We should resolutely adopt the policy of developing guerrilla warfare as widely as possible,Try to mobilize the broadest masses to engage in open armed resistance against Japan。" ("Compilation of Historical Materials from the Shanxi, bet365 mobile, Shandong and Henan Anti-Japanese Base Areas",bet365 mobile People's Publishing House 2015 Edition,Page 170)

United front work in the southern bet365 mobile Anti-Japanese Base Area,Obey the decision-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee,Serving the strategic needs of the Anti-Japanese War。In order to unite the masses to resist Japan and save the country,The 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army sent Sun Jixian one after another、Xu Guangyi led the advancing detachment and Chen Zaidao、The eastward column led by Li Jingyu heads to southern bet365 mobile。August 14, 1938,With Yang Xiufeng、The Administrative Office of Southern bet365 mobile Province with Song Renqiong as the deputy director was announced,marks the basic completion of the establishment of the southern bet365 mobile base area。Subsequently,Jinan Administrative Office promulgated eight major policy policies,Demand to “consolidate and expand the anti-Japanese national united front,Unite all compatriots,Establish a strong anti-Japanese base area in southern bet365 mobile,Fight to the end”。("Selected Historical Documents of Southern bet365 mobile",Chinese Communist Party History Press 1994 Edition,Page 16)

  Second, the policy connotation of united front work in southern bet365 mobile.The united front policy in southern bet365 mobile Province generally shows an evolving trend of mutual integration,The connotation is mainly reflected in the following aspects: first,Jinan base area is "fighting for、The policy of "reform and attack",To the Kuomintang、The Japanese puppets and local armed forces carry out military united front,Thus maintaining regional political stability,Guarantee the order of people’s lives,This is a prerequisite for the implementation of the united front policy。Secondly,The southern bet365 mobile base area implements the "three three systems" policy in politics。September 18, 1940,Party committees at all levels in Jinan District “resolutely implement the ‘three-three system’,Gradually transform the elements of government,Make sure that only 1/3 of the members are Communist Party members。("Letter of Instructions from the Party Committee of Jinan District of the Communist Party of China to Party Committees at All Levels in Southern bet365 mobile","Plain Plains" Issue 43) while granting democratic rights to the broad masses,Fully unite and mobilize the strength of all classes,Comprehensively build a democratic regime in the base area,This is the institutional guarantee for the implementation of the united front policy。Again,The southern bet365 mobile base area implements the "double reduction and double exchange" policy in the economy,“On the one hand, we decided to implement the ‘May Day rent reduction’,The method of giving interest half and half,To unleash the people’s enthusiasm for the war,On the other hand, it was announced that "it has been reduced",It is an order not to default on non-payment of arrears" ("Southern bet365 mobile in Hard Struggle","Liberation" Weekly Volume 4 Issue 71,Page 17),Thus reducing the tax burden on the people,Won the support of the masses,This is the material basis for the implementation of the united front policy。Finally,Implementing the “culture and education” policy in the southern bet365 mobile base area,Unite the broad masses of intellectuals to participate in cultural propaganda,Establish a newspaper and magazine,Publishing various reading materials,Promote the rapid development of cultural and educational undertakings in southern bet365 mobile,“More than fifty kinds of newspapers and periodicals,Popular in the vast plains,Lithographic Jinan Daily,Anti-Japanese War Monthly,Soon to have thousands of readers...More than 1,400 kinds of posters,More than one hundred county newspapers,Continuous telecommunications news every day,Educating the masses who have not cared about state affairs for thousands of years,Improving the political and cultural level of the masses in the war of resistance"。("Jinan Base Area Grows in the Battle","Eighth Route Army Military and Political Magazine" Volume 2 Issue 9,Page 163) at the same time,Jinan base area adopts literary and artistic works that are popular with the masses,Promote the situation of the Anti-Japanese War to the masses,Enhance their consciousness of saving the nation,Meet the cultural needs of the people,This is the spiritual motivation for the implementation of the united front policy。

In summary,The policy connotation of united front work in southern bet365 mobile is to center on the interests of the people,Based on the military united front policy,Using the political united front policy as a system guarantee,Taking the economic and cultural united front policy as the material basis and spiritual power。These four links are integrated into one、Inseparable,Together constitute the overall pattern and historical context of the united front work in the southern bet365 mobile base area。

  Third, the strategic effectiveness of united front work in southern bet365 mobile.First,The CCP’s united front work in southern bet365 mobile is based on safeguarding the fundamental interests of the masses,And realize that "the workers and peasants are the main and fundamental force in persisting in the war of resistance behind enemy lines"。(Part 2 of "Selected Documents of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on the Anti-Japanese National United Front",Page 182) Jinan party organizations unite and rely on the masses,Improving poor peasants and laborers、The life of small craftsmen,Reducing the burden on middle peasants,And raise the awareness of the masses,Make them the masters of the countryside。Deng Xiaoping once affirmed the achievements of the united front work of the masses in southern bet365 mobile,And believes that "the Chinese National People's Congress united the mass movement in southern bet365 mobile",The political significance of these developments cannot be underestimated”。(Volume 1 of "Selected Works of Deng Xiaoping",People's Publishing House 1994 Edition,Page 69) It can be seen from this,The united front policy in the southern bet365 mobile base area has laid a solid mass foundation for the CCP to win good political prestige in the southern bet365 mobile region。

Next,Under the leadership of the Party, the Jinan Administrative Office gives full play to the advantages of the democratic regime,Insist on the war of resistance,Restore sovereignty,Leading the military and civilians to overcome famine and social disorder。Deng Xiaoping pointed out the importance of the united front policy: “Because Southern bet365 mobile has more than 10 years of struggle experience,With considerable mass organization strength,With strong government leadership,With the Eighth Route Army and friendly forces who are rich in combat experience,Especially with the unity of all strata,So we can cope with today’s situation,And you can seek favorable opportunities,To counterattack the attacking enemy to consolidate the anti-Japanese base area in southern bet365 mobile。” ("Liberation" Weekly, Volume 4, Issue 71,Page 19) Therefore,The practice of united front work in southern bet365 mobile has stabilized the regional political situation。

 Finally,Jinan Base Area Party Committee、Administrative Office、The military region unites the military and civilians,Keep fighting,Smash the enemy's continuous "sweeping", "clearing" and "cannibalization" of the base area,Breaking the enemy's "cage" and "three lights" policy and the "security strengthening campaign"。On the one hand,The Eighth Route Army in Southern bet365 mobile dealt a major blow to the Japanese and puppet troops,“From the beginning of 1938 to the advance into southern bet365 mobile to the first half of 1945,According to incomplete statistics,More than 13,400 large and small battles in total,More than 12,170 Japanese soldiers were killed and injured、More than 29,580 puppet troops,Captured 90 Japanese soldiers、23519 puppet troops”。("War History of Southern bet365 mobile Military Region",Blue Sky Publishing House 1993 Edition,Page 296) On the other hand,The people provided a large amount of manpower support for the Anti-Japanese War in southern bet365 mobile region,Promoted the process of the Anti-Japanese War in North China。“According to incomplete statistics,During the eight years of the Anti-Japanese War, there were a total of 180,000 young and middle-aged people in southern bet365 mobile who participated in the army and politics。At War,The general public, regardless of gender, old or young, actively participated in the frontline work。In the Hundred Regiment War alone, as many as 250,000 people participated in breaking the road”。("War History of Southern bet365 mobile Military Region",Page 298) Anyway,The united front work in the southern bet365 mobile Anti-Japanese Base Area not only promoted the development of the anti-Japanese war cause in the region,And effectively cooperated with the situation of the Anti-Japanese War in North China。
