The 100,000 who escaped headed to southern Hunan, first crossing the Xiang River after heavy fighting, and then the Wu River, in Guizhou where they took Zunyi in January 1935.

In January 1935, over 90 per cent of the people of the Saarland, then under League of Nations administration, voted to unite with Germany.
