The Counter-Japanese Army for the Salvation of the Country was a volunteer army led by Li Hai-ching resisting the pacification of Manchukuo. It had about 10,000 guerrilla troops described as being equipped with light artillery and numerous machine guns. They operated in the south of Kirin—now Heilongjiang—province. Li established his headquarters at Fuyu and was in control of the territory around there and southward as far as Nungan.

  1. 中央编译局:“抗日”不宜译成“anti-Japanese”. xinhuanet.com (in Chinese). 2015-08-20. 我们认为,,除在特殊语境,"抗日"不宜译成"anti-Japanese"。首先,英文"anti-Japanese"是"反对日本""反对日本人"的意思,并不包含"侵略"等信息。如果将"抗日"译为"anti-Japanese",国外读者自然就会把所有与此相关的表述都理解为"反对日本人",而不是反抗日本侵略者,如"抗日民族统一战线""抗日根据地""抗日救亡运动"等,都会被理解为"反对日本人",而不是正义的"反抗侵略"的活动。
    其次,英文前缀"anti-"(即"反")后面加上民族或人民构成的复合词(如"anti-American" "anti-Chinese"等),经常与非理性的、情绪化的事件或行为搭配,如"anti-Japanese protest"(反日游行)、"anti-Japanese flag burning"(反日焚烧日本国旗)等。
    我们建议,"抗日"可以采用两种译法:resistance against Japanese aggression或者counter-Japanese。
    译法1:resistance against Japanese aggression或者resistance
    与"anti-Japanese"不同,"resistance"(反抗)包含着非常正面的内涵,一看便知指的是"反抗侵略"。例如,"中国人民抗日战争",翻译为"the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression",国外读者可以很清楚地看到哪一方是侵略者,哪一方是正义方。而在世界反法西斯战争期间,其他同盟国开展的各种反法西斯、反纳粹活动,英语的表述也经常用"resistance"。因此,将"抗日"一词译为"resistance",跟其他同盟国用同样的术语,有利于加强外国读者眼中中国作为同盟国重要成员、维护世界正义力量的形象。
    译法2:counter-Japanese
    与"resistance"相似,"counter-Japanese"一词也意味着对方的行为发生在先,己方行为是应对性质的,如"counter-attack"(反攻)。因而该译法能够表明抗击的对象是侵略行为,而不是日本民族。此外,该译法比"resistance against Japanese aggression"更简短,所以在部分语境里比前者用起来更加灵活,如"counter-Japanese guerrilla force"(抗日游击队)等。
