In the West, this question was not answered, or even raised, for sixty years after the Communists took over China in 1949. This book examines the Communists’ revenue and supply system during the Japanese occupation in Shandong, a coastal province in northern China. It explores how the Communists manipulated currency exchange rates to turn trade within the occupied zones into their principal source of revenue and transform the Japanese army and navy into their most important customers. Thus enabling them to stockpile the materials needed for the race against the Nationalists into Manchuria, China’s only industrialized area, immediately after Japan’s surrender.China studies (Leiden, Netherlands) ;v. 19.Sino-Japanese War, 1937-1945ChinaShandong ShengSino-Japanese War, 1937-1945Economic aspectsShandong Sheng (China)Politics and government20th centuryShandong Sheng (China)History, Military20th centuryShandong Sheng (China)Economic conditions20th centuryChinaMilitary policyChinaEconomic policy1912-1949Electronic books.Sino-Japanese War, 1937-1945Sino-Japanese War, 1937-1945Economic aspects.940.53/5114Lai Sherman Xiaogang951072MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910461840403321A springboard to victory2150108UNINA
