Plans
The armour at Paoshan will head to bolster the defenses at Warazup, will take about 2 weeks to get there.
Infantry will move forward to bolster defenses.
At Chungking, 12 divisions are immediately available. 2 will be tasked with eliminating isolated Chinese groups which will free up garrison units. 1 will stay as a garrison. 2 will be sent to be bought out and sent to the Kuriles. 3 will be sent to be bought out and bolster defenses in the Pacific and DEI. The other 4 will be sent to Burma and should free up a couple of unrestricted divisions to move to Sumatra.
Some of the artillery at Chungking will be sent back to Manchuko, other bits will be distributed among defensive positions in Malaya and Burma.
In Burma, there is the option to launch an attack once the divisions have arrived. I suspect this will get nowhere.
