Traskott,
You should be sure that I will try... Chinese will be under panic after the next massive offensive in three fronts... Northern Area Army (>6000 AV) in the Sian frontline, XV Army in the Western border (Burma/Chinese) with more than 500 AV and XVI / XXIII Armies (about 1.000 AV) offensive in the South to capture Liüchow. All of them supported by heavy air close support (3rd, 1st and 2nd AirDivisions)

Best wishes
Ramón

Hello Fletch
Just looked at New Gwinea map. You have some planes at Woodlark Is. but AF and Port are 0.
So do you really use them?? What mission?? if may I now :)
............. and awaiting your massive offensive at Sian, it will be hard woods-fighting there is no good flanking moves

Sly,

Thank you for your question !
About Woodlark Island, take note.. I have a JNAF Coy (with 8 AV support squads) and 17th Ku K-1 chutai with 4 E13A1 at ASW missions. They are Floatplanes, and an airfield is not needed :)
About Sian offensive, absolutely agree, 4 tank regiments are moving to north-northwest for a flanking move to support 41st I.D. and cut Sian north railway. Chinese army at Sian frontline is huge with 23 units in the front and another 20 units spotted at Sian itself, another 7 or 8 units are in the northern bank of the river. I will start another offensives in China with the redeployed XVI Army at South and XV Army detachment at West (Burma/China border).
Thank you very much.
Best of wishes
Ramón

This time, 3 B17E and 3 LB30 were intercepted at night time by 38 Ki-43Ic alerted at night to avoid this kind of attacks.

Nanking, Anking, Hankow and Canton are riverine ports in the screeshot map of Southern China, as you can see there. Note the thinner dark blue river line.
