The Northeast National Salvation Society was an organization formed by exiles from Manchuria,(the Northeast) in order to put pressure on the Chinese government of Chiang Kai-shek to end its policy of non resistance to the Empire of Japan that had invaded Manchuria after the Mukden Incident and to assist the volunteer armies,especially the Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army in Liaoning,led by Tang Juwu. One of its chief supporters was Zhang Xueliang who privately supported this resistance,despite his public obedience to the government policy of non resistance. Zhang was not publicly associated with the Society and never held office in it,but provided funds and allowed it to use his name when communicating with volunteer armies. [1]
The society was dissolved in 1933,under pressure from Chinese government in Nanjing. [2]
The Xi'an Incident was a major Chinese political crisis from 12 to 26 December 1936. Chiang Kai-shek,leader of the Nationalist government of China,was placed under house arrest in the city of Xi'an by a Nationalist army he was there to review. Chiang's captors hoped to end the Chinese Civil War and confront Japanese imperial expansion into Chinese territory. After two weeks of intense negotiations between Chiang,his captors,representatives of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP),and significant external pressure from Soviet leader Joseph Stalin,the two parties agreed to pursue a strategy of cooperation against future Japanese aggression.
