Not bad for some quick hits against his shipping. Doesn't mean much but still it is something.

CHICKIE LAD--You need to pick a NUMBER between 1 and 9.

May 25, 1944

The Chinese moved into Liuchow about 12-14 days ago. There have been several attacks but no real results. That changes THIS DAY! Japan makes a limited attack on the 24th that gets a 1-2. On the 25th it appears that the Chinese units are withdrawing NW. Well...hmmm...order a SHOCK ATTACK!

We've maintained command of the air with roughly 100 Japanese bombers hitting the Chinese every turn.

The assault goes over the top and CRUSHES Chinese resistance. A net 4-1 attack occurs and over 900 Chinese Squads are destroyed with a total of 13,667 troops entering the casualty list. Add 40 guns and the Japanese have some reason to smile. Japanese Casualties are fairly good at 1,490 and 14 Vehicles.

Two units did not retreat with the other six so we'll hit them again on the 26th.

Nice to see a ground victory in China!

It's probably pretty important for you-if you want to use the 'magical highway' for fuel and oil through China to get those Allied running dogs off of the Liuchow-Kweilin rail link. I'd run up the highway link and liquidate each of those Chinese groups in turn.

Chickenboy-san NUMBAH ONE!

And I will take what's behind curtain number 7.

I really like those independent mountain gun units. Most are completely air mobile, giving a little artillery muscle to Japanese defenses.

Sure, they are pea shooters, but they end up being damage soaks and add just a little extra. Especially useful in island defenses because they can be flown all over.

Nice attack in China, and you should clear that road/rail line if you can.

Think I shall take those two ID in Liuchow and move NE to try to knock those Chinese units right there back some...

You could have started much before - piling victories in China.

for now I'm not optimistic regarding the situation in China. In few months odds and table could be reversed much in Japan's detriment. But maybe I'm wrong.

[John 3rd]

The biggest help I had in Liuchow was the clear terrain as well as bomber support with no Allied Fighters or Bombers in opposition.
