Hebei-Chahar Political Council
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hebei-Chahar Political Council, or Hebei-Chahar Political Commission, was established at Beijing under Gen. Song Zheyuan, December 8, 1935.
In 1935, under Japanese pressure, China signed the He-Umezu Agreement, which forbade the Kuomintang(KMT) from conducting party operations in Hebei and effectively ended Chinese control of that province. In the same year, the Chin-Doihara Agreement was signed and vacated the KMT from Chahar.
By the end of 1935, the Chinese central government had virtually vacated from North China. In its place, the Japanese-backed East Hebei Autonomous Council was established on November 24, and the Hebei-Chahar Political Council was established December 18, 1935.
The Hebei-Chahar Political Council rendered lip service to the Japanese effort to secure the secession of the five provinces of North China (Shandong, Hebei, Shanxi, Chahar, and Suiyuan) but made no vital concessions.
