Han Yunhua himself also has a certain understanding of the puppet forces that were active in various places during the Anti-Japanese War, among which the largest Han annihilation puppet organization in the country is Wang Jingwei's puppet political axe that will be formed later, followed by which puppet Manchukuo in the northeast is full of taste, and then down to which puppet national provisional political axe in Yanjing. If you talk about the number of Han annihilation organizations at the provincial and municipal levels, there are too many Han Yunhua, so there are a large number of provinces and cities Han Yunhua is not very clear. But Han Yunhua knows a lot about this Xinmin Association, if nothing else, because what this Xinmin Association did for the Yue army during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression or played a role in the Yue army is too great.

In terms of organizational composition, status, and surname, the Xinmin Association itself is a puppet organization of Han annihilation. The Xinmin Association is nominally a so-called "people's organization" that believes in "the new Ming Dynasty, the construction of a new China, and the realization of the coexistence and co-prosperity of the three countries of East Asian culture and race." However, in reality it is not readable, and like all puppet organizations in China, the Xinmin Society is under the control of the Japanese army. The main role of the Xinmin Association is "a special organ for political axes to issue orders from above and report to the lower levels, and because of the relationship between cooperatives, it eventually becomes an organ for economic work".

As an organization, the Xinmin Association also has its own organizational program, and the original program of the Xinmin Association was: "Support the new regime in order to unblock public opinion"; "Develop industries to ensure people's livelihood"; "Carry forward the cultural morality of the East"; "Under the banner of suppressing the Communist Party and destroying the party, participate in the [***] front"; "To promote the realization of alliances of friends in order to contribute to the peace of mankind". Combined with the background of the times at that time, it is not difficult to see that this Xinmin Association is a puppet Han annihilation organization of two devils who completely serves the army. The history of the Xinmin Association is not very long, but it is famous in the history of China. On December 27, 1937, after the Yue army entered Jinan, the Han and Han annihilators of Jinan City followed the Xuanfu class of the Yue army to set up propaganda points in Jinan City, railway stations, and parks on important streets, organized language classes, and convened youth student meetings to publicize "the sacredness of the Great East Asian War" and "[***] coexistence and common prosperity". By February of the following year, most of Shandong had fallen. In the same month, he founded the Chinese newspaper "Qingdao Xinmin Bao" in Qingdao. In its founding declaration, the "Qingdao Public Security Maintenance Association" shamelessly declared that the invasion of the army was "an urgent need to remember the city's upside down, and sent a large army to stop it, so that the whole people could recover, and I was extremely grateful." "It is said that the friendly forces are dedicated to defending the locality and have no territorial ambitions for China," so it is of the utmost importance to demand that "all the people should keep order and provide convenience to the friendly forces." In March 1938, the puppet Shandong Provincial Office with Ma Liang as governor was established. In July, the Shandong Provincial Guidance Department of the Xinmin Association was listed in Jinan, and the "Shandong Xinmin Daily" was published at the same time. The Xinmin Association began to combine with the puppet regime in Shandong, carried out propaganda on enslavement and established local organizations in Shandong Province, ordered the county offices to set up propaganda classes, held a meeting at the Jinan Chamber of Commerce to "suppress the Communist Party and destroy the party", and marched in the city. In November, the "[***] Salvation Association" was established in Jinan. Subsequently, from November to December, the director, counselor, and propaganda personnel were successively sent to various provinces to hold the "[***] National Salvation" conference to publicize. According to the statistics of the work report of the puppet Shandong Provincial Office, within nine months after the establishment of the puppet provincial office, a total of 7 such meetings (parades), dozens of small meetings, and various propaganda and speeches, including radio propaganda, school speeches, street speeches, and speeches in entertainment venues, amounted to hundreds of times. In 1938, the puppet provincial office established 4 provincial Xinmin language schools, and the Jinan Municipal Office established 13 municipal Xinmin language schools. In February 1939, Tang Yangdu succeeded Ma Liang as the governor of the puppet Shandong Provincial Office and concurrently led the Shandong Provincial Guidance Department of the Xinmin Association. The activities of the Xinmin Association were expanded to include ideological education and the establishment and expansion of local organizations and the organization of training. The so-called ideological education mainly refers to the education of slavery, the distribution of newspapers and periodicals of the Xinmin Association, the cleaning up of anti-Japanese books, and the holding of various pro-Japanese lectures, film meetings, and lectures on the Chinese language. To this end, the following organizations have been set up: the "Rural Autonomy Seminar" (to train the actual staff of the seminar), the "Construction Guidance Committee" (to promote rural reform and prepare for the establishment of agricultural cooperatives), the Xinmin Association Information Office, the Xinmin Teahouse, and the Newspaper Reading Room (attached to the teahouse, which displays the newspapers and books of the Xinmin Association). The so-called establishment and expansion of local organizations is mainly to develop Xinmin associations in the newly occupied areas, especially the county guidance departments, and to be responsible for training work, opening youth training centers, setting up experimental villages, and guiding the formation of branches, organizing and supporting rural cooperatives. The Youth League, the Youth League, and the Girls' League are all under the jurisdiction of the Xinmin Association, and most of the rural cooperatives are also operated by the Xinmin Association, so as to unify the purchase and use of rural trafficking, financial business, and equipment and equipment, and strengthen control over the occupied areas. With the expansion of the puppet occupation area and the expansion of the organization of the New People's Association, the scope of activities of the New People's Association has become more extensive. Of course, Han Yunhua has nothing to say about such a Han annihilation organization, hoeing and annihilating it is necessary, but this Xinmin Association is a relatively difficult organization. The entire Xinmin Association has extremely large strength in Shandong. Although it is only an organization that has only been established for less than two years, it has received strong support from the military and the entire puppet Shandong Administrative Office, so the speed of development of this new people's association is extremely rapid.

At this time, Han Yunhua still clearly remembered some data about the Xinmin Association, and it was these data that evoked some memories hidden in Han Yunhua's brain. The provincial general meeting of the Xinmin Association has jurisdiction over the Jinan City General Association, 10 provincial general associations and 108 county, city and special district general associations. By September 1942, the Shandong Xinmin Federation had established a total of 5,056 branches, with 153442 full members, 1863766 associate members, and 2017208 members. The subordinate groups under its jurisdiction are: Youth League, with a total of 457 regiments and 123675 members; the Youth League, with a total of 302 regiments and 49,287 members; the Girls Regiment, a total of 152 regiments, 19,428 people; Women's Youth League, 3 regiments, 252 members; women's associations, 131, 37,989 members; A total of 1,063 regiments (meetings) with 230631 people. Such a huge amount of data is enough to show that the difficulty of the Xinmin Society's forces can be said to have penetrated the entire Shandong region, and it is impossible to eliminate it at once, and there must be a clear and complete overall plan.

Of course, Han Yunhua also knows how much harm an all-encompassing and complex organization like the Xinmin Association poses to the entire Chinese nation, and he knows even more clearly what a huge and invisible blow the existence of these people is to the anti-Japanese situation of the whole country. The means and channels of propaganda of the Xinmin Association are much wider than Han Yunhua imagined, and its tentacles extend to almost all aspects of the puppet ruling area in Shandong. It monitored and controlled the thoughts, speeches, and actions of the people under the pseudo-rule and undertook such tasks as grassroots political power such as neighborhood protection organizations, food rationing, and household registration, armed work such as training self-defense regiments and even standing guard with guns, and organizing production and consumption cooperatives. The criminal activities of the Xinmin Association have caused great harm to all the anti-Japanese organizations operating in Shandong, and the reason why the Yue army was able to wipe out so many large and small anti-Japanese forces of the National People's Political Axe and the Eighth Route Army in such a short period of time was that these Han annihilation forces did not make a small contribution. Now this bullshit Xinmin Association is targeting Han Yunhua's department, Han Yunhua is a vegetarian. Immediately ordered the intelligence department to start urgently collecting the criminal activities of the Xinmin Association in Shandong, and as long as it was involved, it should be reported to the Yanggu County Headquarters as soon as possible. At the same time, Han Yunhua also organized the Propaganda Department to widely publicize the criminal activities of the entire Xinmin Association, and he wanted all Shandong people to find out what kind of organization this Xinmin Association was.

After a week's preliminary summary, Han Yunhua summarized the four major sins to the Xinmin Association. The first is to act as a royal machine for pseudo-slavery propaganda and to harm the minds of the Chinese. Han Yunhua This is not a mouthful, the Xinmin Association has carried out a variety of means and methods of enslaving propaganda in the past eight years of the Anti-Japanese War, mainly: publishing and distributing Xinmin Society newspapers and periodicals, such as "Xinmin Daily", "Xinmin Youth Weekly", etc.; Lectures, concerts, films, language workshops and celebrations; Organize various seminars and training centers, such as rural self-government seminars and youth training centers, to train propaganda backbones; opened the Xinmin Teahouse, and set up a newspaper reading room in the teahouse to display fake books; Essay contests and essay contests are held through affiliated organizations, newspapers and periodicals, the Education Bureau, radio stations, etc. The pseudo-puppet attempt is to instill the idea of pro-pro-saying into the common people in this simple and practical way. Secondly, the Xinmin Association also acted as the vanguard of the pseudo-[***]. It was the backbone of the Anti-Japanese War in North China and a great disaster for hypocrisy. In order to eliminate this great calamity, the army has constantly mobilized troops to carry out "sweeps." However, [***] not only has not been destroyed, but has grown stronger. This made the army realize: "In the matter of suppressing the communists, we cannot achieve results by relying only on force to carry out a crusade." "Because [***] is the trinity of the party, the government, and the military, and the relationship with the people is like fish in water. Therefore, [***] "It is necessary to focus on active and tenacious efforts and the unified use of the military, government, and civilian forces, the destruction of the enemy's organizational forces, and the enlisting of the people." The Xinmin Association, which is spread across the urban and rural areas, has adapted to this need, and for this reason, the army has put forward the task of "undertaking the mission of organizing the people" to the Xinmin Association. As a result, the Xinmin Association became the vanguard of the pseudo-[***]. From 1941 to 1942, the puppet puppets in North China launched five successive "public security strengthening campaigns" in an attempt to use the unified forces of the army, the government, and the parliament to deal with the party, government, and army trinity, and "fight a war for the people." While actively establishing and expanding grassroots branches, the Xinmin Association also actively established and expanded the Youth League, the Youth League, the Girls' League, the Women's Youth League, and the Women's Association, implemented the armor protection system, established rural autonomous self-defense organizations, organized rural armed groups, organized "Xinmin commandos" and "vanguards" of various names, and directly carried out [***] activities, which played a very bad role.

At the same time, the Xinmin Association also conducts intelligence gathering. The Xinmin Association not only has the role of "issuing orders from above," but is also a special organ for "reporting information from below," and intelligence gathering is one of its functions. The Xinmin Society is a huge spy intelligence organization. The investigation departments (offices and units) at all levels set up in the Xinmin Association are the full-time intelligence networks of the Xinmin Association system, and are one of the four major intelligence networks called pseudo-puppetry. The Xinmin Association has established two major intelligence organizations in Shandong: the first is an intelligence network based in the Jinan Branch of the Central Investigation Department of the Xinmin Association. The Jinan Branch of the Central Investigation Department of the Xinmin Association was established at the end of 1942 and ended with the surrender of the army, stationed in Nanshangshan Street, Jinan City, known as the Jinan Economic Survey Institute. There are three departments: the first department, which is responsible for personnel and general affairs; the second department, responsible for organization and supervision; The third department is responsible for intelligence collation and guidance. There are 31 key personnel. In addition, there are "workers" with professional cover in Jining, Huimin, Linyi, Mengyin, Zhoucun, Yidu, Zhucheng, Tancheng, Weixian and other places. The branch is directly subordinate to the Central Investigation Department of the Xinmin Association, and does not have contact with local Xinmin associations, and its main task is to collect local political, economic, and military intelligence under the cover of economic surveys. The second is the intelligence network with the investigation office of the Shandong Provincial General Association of the Xinmin Association as the backbone. The Investigation Office of the Shandong Provincial General Association of the Xinmin Association was established in April 1943 and ended with the surrender of the new people. The director is Wang Tiemin. This office is one of the internal organs of the Provincial Xinmin Association, which is divided into internal and field services, and is responsible for monitoring the staff of each department of the Xinmin Association and providing guidance to the investigation units of the province, city and county. However, this office mainly accepts the leadership of the Xinmin Association's Counselor's Office, and has working contacts with the Jinan City Military Police, so it is also a special intelligence agency attached to the Xinmin Association, and is mainly responsible for collecting [***] intelligence and compiling materials on the "suppression of the Communist Party." There are investigators in Changqing, Tai'an, Guangrao, Zhucheng, Mengyin, Yidu, Yishui, Weixian, Jining, Zhangqiu and other places. It is linked to the investigation units of the provincial, city, and county associations, and effectively constitutes a top-down intelligence system. Finally, the Xinmin Association also organized rural cooperatives to indulge the rural economy. It is said that the rural cooperatives promoted by the pseudo-institute are an organizational form that integrates political, economic, and military management with the combination of rural autonomy and armor protection systems. The Xinmin Association is the de facto indoleator of the cooperative. The Xinmin Association tried to make use of the unique functions of the cooperatives to completely indulge the rural people and the rural economy, and put them on the track of serving the puppet rule. In short, the Xinmin Association is an out-and-out Han annihilation organization, with the pro-name [***] as its vocation, it has gathered a large number of Han annihilation backbones, and its organization is extremely extensive, not only in cities, but also scattered in rural towns, and has established various forms of affiliated organizations, and its activities involve ideological, cultural, political, economic, and military aspects.
