During the period of invasion in China, Japan implements a large-scale immigration policy of aggression in Northeast China. In line with the continuation of immigration aggression, Japan implements the "Mainland Brides" policy. This paper mainly researches on the origin, establishment and implemental situation of the "Mainland Brides" policy.After Mukden Incident, in order to achieve long-term occupation of northeast China and defense of the Soviet Union, Japan sent the "armed immigrants" to Northeast China. Not only because the Chinese anti-Japanese guerrillas continuously attacked Japanese, but the "armed immigrants" were not suited to local climate and conditions, appeared other agitated symptoms, the "armed immigrants" suffered the so-called "Settlement Disease". In order to ease immigrants and let them settle in the local, Toumiya Kaneo proposed to recruit the "Mainland Brides" strategy.In 1936, Japan introduced "The Scheme of Sent One Million in Two Decades", therefore a large-scale migrates were sent to Northeast China. Then the" Youth Soldiers to Develop Manchuria and Mongolia" system was born. With the number of young singles in Northeast China is increasing, the Japanese government is bound to recruit more "Mainland Brides." 1938, the Ministry of National Recruitment and Ministry of Education have drew up plans to recruit millions of brides and recruited brides from the whole country since 1938. In 1939, "The Document on the Establishment of Office to Raise Women Migrants" was passed in the 74th Imperial Parliament, planning to let women accept colonization training in Japan. In the same year of December, the recruitment of "Mainland Brides" issue was written into the programmatic document for the implementation of large-scale immigration "Basic Policy of Colonizing Manchuria Program", implementing the recruitment of "Mainland Brides" policy officially, creating various facilities of training "Mainland Brides".In the end of 1941, the Pacific War broke out, so Japan's labor force was exhausted. However, the second five-year plan "Emigrate to Manchuria" didn't consider this problem, so the Japanese prefectures have to increase the Youth Soldiers to Develop Manchuria and Mongolia recruitment. Meanwhile, the "Mainland Brides" recruitment is also imminent. The prefectures of Japan and organizations had to launch activities, organize Office to Raise Women Migrants and Institute for Women's Colonization Training Workshops, and establish pioneering female private school in the "Manchuria" and so on, attracting a large number of Japanese women to go to northeast China. However, after the defeat of Japan, these "Mainland Brides" became "abandoned people", most of them died in the war or committed suicide, and some of them went through hardships, as a "residue women" survived.They "Mainland Brides" policy was a part of Japan's immigration policy of aggression in Northeast China, which supported Japan's immigration policy and Japan's war of aggression. "Mainland Brides" were not only victims of the war, but also the aggressors in the war. They aimed to multiply the population, support food production and relieve ethnic tensions. After the war, "mainland brides" were abandoned by the Japanese government and became casualties of war. Therefore, the Japanese Government's "Mainland Brides" policy served completely the interests of Japan.
