The Communist increased their influence among the workers and peas an obtained recruits for their army.

 The Communists  led  by Mao  retreated into  the wild  mountain  where they stayed for seven years.

 The campaign  against  the communists  was distracted as Chiang  Kai  Shek had  to deal with the constant threat from Japan and also the attacks from war lords.
