After the "September 18th Incident", Li heard from Ba Yesun in the "Yifayuan" coach shop in Ning 'an that the Japanese army had occupied Shenyang and was occupying three northeastern provinces in the north. Li formed a peasant team, named "Anti-Japanese Self-Defense Force", with Li as the captain. The team soon expanded to dozens of people.
1932 In February, the Salvation Army led by Wang Delin came to Ning 'an from Dunhua. Li's team was incorporated. He is the company commander of the 26th Brigade, 2nd Battalion, 6th Company. He led a team to block Ueda's team in Tatoudian, Songyigou, to cover the Salvation Army's retreat. He also personally led the death squads to attack Ning 'an County for the first time. Shortly after receiving the order to "retreat to Dongning County", Li decided to pull the team out and defend his hometown Ning 'an by himself. After this team is pulled out of the Salvation Army, it must have a team name, named "Pingnanyang Anti-Japanese Guerrilla", with Li as the team leader and the rest as the deputy team leader.
The banner of "Ping Nanyang" rang around Ning 'an for a while. Attacking Ning 'an County, persuading Wang to resist Japan, intelligently killing Japanese detachments, attacking Tokyo City and burning Japanese barracks greatly boosted the military strength of "Gan Nanyang" and frightened the enemy. Based on this, the Japanese army once put forward the slogan of "specializing in Nanyang, not playing the mountain forest team". However, due to the complex composition of the recruits, they rob things indiscriminately and harm the interests of the masses. The Japanese army took this as a rumor and blamed all the bad things done by bandits on "Pingnanyang". In order to recover the political influence, Li and Yu Hong were appointed to rectify the military discipline and decided to rename the "Pingnanyang" Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Corps as "Jidong Workers and Peasants Anti-Japanese Volunteers", with Li as the team leader and Yu as the deputy team leader.

Since then, he has survived under the cover of underground party member Tao Jing. After the incident, the Ning 'an County Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China believed that the Workers and Peasants Volunteers were influential in Ning 'an and were one of the founders of the Allied Forces. At the beginning of September, it was rebuilt, and the captain was still Li. Later, this team quickly developed into a very effective team.

After the recovery of Northeast China, Li was appointed as the commander of Mudanjiang Military Region by the Northeast Bureau of the Central Committee, and took Tan Wenbang and Christine to Mudanjiang to take over the Mudanjiang Municipal Government, with Li as the mayor.
On May 5th, 1935, Li Guangrong successfully joined the China * * * Production Party. Soon, Ning 'an Volunteers of Workers and Peasants established a Party branch, and Li served as a member of the Party branch. Since then, Ning 'an Volunteers of Workers and Peasants have become an anti-Japanese armed force under the direct leadership of the Party and played an important role in Ning 'an's anti-Japanese struggle.
