Absolutely nothing i can do vs these raids, and as Offenceman has already indicated the chinese are reverting to dynastic level of technology , so we can happily produce lovely vases and bronze gongs but little else

In the Phillipines , only Cebu remains as a defensive base and it was reduced down to forts 0 today but the seagulls flying from there have finally got enough experience to actually hit and damage japanese AK's . They have damaged a good 1/2 dozen so far into the war with O47's flying naval search ,they have been harassing japanse shipping for weeks. Sadly that appears to be ending as i am sure the base will fall very soon.
The allied 4E heavies took to the skiea today after a long absence , and hit kendari in 3 uncoordinated waves , damage is unknown at this stage but i suspect a few jap bombers and recons were knocked out with medium damage to the runways. they also managed to hold off upto 14 zeros and most likely shot 1-2 down for no allied loss. the additional training seems to have paid off as previously we lost 6 heavies trying this 3 weeks ago.
