SUBJECT: ENEMY ENGAGE
DATE: JAN 30th, 1942.


Yesterday at afternoon we receive an incoming message from HIJMS CHITOSE AT KOEPANG reporting an enemy light cruiser 240 nm north-northwest of Timor Island. Decision to turn to south was taken at night and we are bearing 160, speed 15 with naval search air missions in 0-240 arc.

Radio message from HIJMS MYOKO Floatplane reported "two enemy warships 120 nm north of our positions, bearing 330, speed 12 knots", due poor visibility our aircraft can not report class or type.

Thinking in the posibility of a light cruiser was heading Soerabaja we launched an attack unit with 12 B5N2. One and half hour later our aircrafts reported two enemy minesweepers were sunk near Mataram island. These ships were identified like AMc Smeroe and AMc Merapi.

I am heading south, bearing 160 searching enemy light cruiser in the vecinity of Timor.

Long Live to the Emperor !!

SUBJECT: NORTH CHINA OFFENSIVE (Ist Army)
DATE: Jan 30th, 1.942

Yesterday, Jan 29th, 1942, our North China Area Army have launched a massive struggle against Chengchow to liberate this city from chinese bandits. In our first assault 110th Infantry Division with 7th, 9th and 15th Mixed Brigades supported by 32nd Div (A Det) smashed enemy positions defended by 15th, 40th and 98th Corps. The enemy fortification level was downed to size 2. Enemy losses were reported 2.362 vs 442 IJA casualties. 185 enemy squads were reported destroyed at ground.

Today, I can annouce the capture of Chengchow and destruction of three enemy corps with the lost of 4.410 chinese vs 328 IJA casualties. Another 160 enemy squads were reported destroyed. Our forces will head to Loyand to capture this base at once supported by pincer movement by our armoured units.

Status: offline 		Hi Traskott, for sure , but I will must to fight for Mandalay-Shwebo in the next month. I will probably need two month to get Indian frontiers (that I will no cross, it´s out of my target). I will need to improve my logistical support (garrison units, AA, Av.Support, Construction units to fortify as much as possible) to defend my conquests and keep them impenetrables

I took an eye on your AAR and I must to say you did an excellent work !.
Best wishes

Status: offline 		Hi fremen !
I take borrowed from you when I played like allied.
It´s a good idea to avoid Palembang Coastal Defenses and save time to the future assault to North Java. A direct assault over Palembang is so risk. Soft enemy engineers is a must.
Light changes, I prefer to use all my paratroopers in this operation and backbone of XVI Army to land at Oosthaven (XVI Army, 38th I.D., 8th Tank Regiment, 19th & 20th Ind.Engineer Regiment, 10th Mnt Gun Reg, 20th Mnt Gun Bn, 4th Mortar Bn, 17th Medium F.A.Regiment and several support units -AA and AvSupport-). When Singapore and Palembang falls, a lot of them will be shipped to Java.
For the other hand, I prefer to support this ops with main body Combined Fleet.
Best wishes
ramón
