Planimetric map of China

http://www.loc.gov/rr/geogmap/guide/gmillcon.html This planimetric map of China is a surface map that lacks relief features. It appears to be a section of a larger, gridded map, and indicates what look like roads and maybe a railroad, possibly bodies of water, and divisions of the landscape (these could be territories, property lines, or something else entirely). Without being able to understand the language, it is hard to tell what the shaded sections are.
