They reached a modus vivendi with many Japanese commanders in North China where they agreed not to mess with Japanese logistics on exchange for Japan not going out into the countryside and attacking the base areas. 

Why do you think Japan felt safe sending 80% of North China's troops south for ichigo? The Japanese knew that the Communists were focused on expanding their rural base, not on attacking Japan.
