RE: Test 5 ALPHA China Cease Fire Negotiations

Post by el cid again »

It has been tentatively agreed to turn this into a "quiet China" scenario for one year starting
1 January 1942. This will involve a cease fire in theater on that date, except for clearing
designated pockets of isolated units. Generally movements will be cooperative thereafter.
IJA and JAAF will withdraw major offensive units for operations in other theaters, as political
points and movement render feasible. Neither side will engage in offensive operations in China
until either the agreement ends, or either side declares an intent to break the agreement, which
must include notice of at least 4 days (which has been agreed to in order to implement the deal).

The tentative terms as proposed by IJA include the following:

The deal requires something close to the following IF the stated intent is to be achieved.  
While generally hostilities will cease and lines will remain as they are in the crudest sense,
some units will have to move (and indeed need time to move), some locations need to changehands,
and some isolated pockets will be rounded up (because we have no way for them to surrender until
attacked with overwhelming force).

We start in the North.  This is the one major place the Japanese are going to have to give up both
ground and the potential for a significant victory:  Commander First Army probably is not at all
happy to have the drive on Sian ended, and its ability to function fully restored, as well asit
being in a situation where a serious buffer against future offensives can be built to protect it.
This in spite of a record rate of advance into the area, and on more than one axis.  This area also
is the historical heartland of China, where modern civilization was born, including the sites of the
oldest institutions in the world.  It is ALSO an area in which the RIVER is the primary LOC - a river
dominated by the ROC Navy - and where that river's tankers, not just transports, are vital to theeconomy. 
In no case could Japan export from this region effectively, even if it captured it all.

1) Japanese units at 89,38 Feng Yang must withdraw, leaving the Upper Yellow River connection between
Yennan and Sian uncontested.  

2) If Japanese units reach 86,41 Huo Ma - which seems likely - they must retreat Eastward all theway to
the mountains at 88,41 Huo Hsiang.  This is a position very hard to capture - and First Armydoes not want
to have to pay for it again if/when the war in China resumes.  But the retreat DOESgive Sian a
considerable buffer - including three hexes that can be fortified.  It also includes significant economic
assets, including some oil production.  

3)  The Chengchow area (88,44 Chengchow itself;    87,43 Loyang;  and 88,42 Tsiaotso must be evacuated.
However, although the RR and road connections are now enemy occupied, and it is likely to be evenmore
isolated by 1 January, BOTH the ROC units AND every bit of supplies, fuel and resources the primary RR can
evacuate are to be allowed to escape.  This compromise makes sense because it took major battles tocapture
these hexes, and these destroyed much of the industry, and many IJA units were decimated in the process. 
So Japan must OPEN the RR / secondary road connection to Sian to allow the ROC units (and whatever the RR
can carry supply wise) to escape.  That is, turn stockpiling to no for supplies, fuel, oil and resources in
all three hexes - and turn it on at Sian or any/every other hex along that RR.  Once the hexes are no longer
ROC occupied (if they don't automatically change sides) IJA will move in and capture them.  But it will NOT
advance down the RR or river LOC toward Sian.

4) Nanyang will become the new ROC front line.  If any units remain in 86,46 (no name) they will withdraw
into the city.    The same for any units at 85.47.  These hexes protect the North South RR, one hex to their
East.  Japan will NOT keep a major field army in this area and ROC will defend in depth rather than
concentrating forward at Nanyang - which is a significant base and logistical center.  84,46 Deng Hsien IS
allowed to generate resources to feed the industry at Nanyang, and Nanyang's small oil industry WILL export
its oil via the primary road to Sian - which can refine it.  Nanyang will have to import resources down that
same road - so set stockpiling resources to Yes, and stockpiling Oil to No.

5) The unit at 85,48 which successfully (and improbably) fought its way out of a strategic encirclement IS
classified as escaped.  It CAN withdraw to Nanyang UNMOLESTED even BEFORE the cease fire takes effect.

6) Units at 87,48 and 88,46 retreated the "wrong way" and have no path to a ROC supply center.  They will
be reduced as "bandits" UNLESS you can show they have a path to such a supply center.  The same applies to
two units at 90,49 - these retreated out of the swamp onto the RR in that hex and they have no path to any
supply source.

7)  A (more or less historical) ROC "pocket with major supply sources is created in SE China.  In particular,
its production centers are 89, 58 Wenchow; 86,57 Napping, and 81,57 Kan Hsien.  Units in the area may retreat
toward them, either into them or to protect their approaches and road nets.  But units on the East West RR at
86,55 and 88.56 Chu Hsien must withdraw (as the RR is part of the deal).  2 units at 86,56 - which threaten
the RR route - will also withdraw.  [In many of these cases, the units may no longer be present on 1 January,
so these statements are contingent on those hexes being ROC occupied.]  These movements -  and all others
unrelated to "reducing bandits" - will not be harassed by air attacks.

8) The primary ROC concession is clearing the RR lines from Changsha to Hong Kong, Changsha to Shanghai, and
Changsha to Indochina.  This means units must withdraw either to the West into the forests and mountains in
front of Chunking, or into the pocket described in (7) above or (9) below.  

9) The Southern Pocket has logistic centers at 73, 60 Kwangchowwan, 72,60 Tsu Wen, 72,58 Pakhoi, and 74,57
Quei Peng (also a more or less historical ROC stronghold for most of the war).  The status of 86,57 Wuchow and
76,58 Chow Ch'ing is contested at this time.  You may declare them uncontested and withdraw, or fight for them
until the cease fire, your choice.  They are a bit too close to Canton for comfort for 35th Army, but they are
not clearly going to fall by then either, hence the special case.

Test 5 ALPHA follow up to China agreement

Post by el cid again »

It was a surprise to see a "cease fire" take effect BEFORE the proposed and agreed date. Since you didn't tell me until after I entered my turn, we proceeded with different policies. For the record, I did not study and am skeptical that Japan can win an auto-victory without over-running all of SE and East China.  But I don't play to win.  [Japanese players essentiallycannot win, but it is nice to have hope it might happen].  However, the PURPOSE of this test is to have the assets in the fall to go to the Arctic.  We need to test the pwhexe.dat filesand a lot of other technical things in that area.  IF ops are possible or not determines a lotabout future development.  If not - we rip much of the special work out.  

Anyway - At Wuchow - I ordered Lt Gen Sano of the 38th ("Swamp") Division to go to the enemy HQ and congratulate the senior ROC commander on his stalwart defense.  He is to deliver notice that the IJA will leave IN MARCH ORDER (that is, unable to properly defend itself) - as a sign the city is now declared to be ROC for the truce period. 

To avoid other cases of mixed signals, attacks generally are disallowed to ALL locations exceptre isolated units with no path to friendly lines.  IJA units will begin movements to facilitate needed ROC movements.

The most significant location is hex 86,43 (no name, next to Loyang, on the railroad that connects Chengchow to Sian).    Lt General Nakano, commander of the Third Tank ("Taki") Division has beenordered to send a message to all commanders in Chengchow, Loyang and Tsiaotso that, althoughhis battle today insured the isolation of all three cities, ALL OF THEM are free to entrain and depart the area, together with as many supplies and resources (etc) as will move if stockpiling is set to no for all of them.  His unit, and the IJA 7th Independent Mixed Brigade which is supporting hisspearhead, will clear the RR hex as soon as feasible in march mode.  This hex is declared NEUTRAL territory and Japanese units will NOT enter it.  ROC units may set up defensive positions ANYWHEREto the NW or West of that hex, for the defense of the approaches to Sian. 

Similarly, 84,46 and 85,46 will not be entered so that 84,46 may feed via primary road the frontline city of Nanyang.  Nanyang may be garrisoned as desired - not that I like strong forces near the front - but to insure it is defensible - as IJA wants the one hex buffer between it and the RR line - ROC needs to feelconfident it won't be attacked by surprise by the garrison forces.

At 88,56 Chu Hsien, where ROC units were attacked while attempting to leave the hex,  13th Army commander Lt General Sawada has been directed to apologize based on orders from above.  He is NOT going to contestthe departure of other units.  Only that one hex of the East West RR from Shanghai to Nanchang is presently ROC controlled (one hex was cleared of units today) - but ROC units at Chu Hsien do NOT have to leave(as they are now doing) overland. They may use the PRIMARY ROAD in hex 87,56 instead - and this will not be contested.

At 82,38 - not previously covered - Sinn Sien is declared ROC held and units may retreat into it unmolested. The stray (guerilla?) unit at 93,36 (no name) may retreat SW into the city - crossing through what looks like Japanese lines.  Japanese units will withdraw faster, by road, to Tatung.  This is not so much a gift as realism: guerillas don't need a line of supply.

[Note RHS guerillas "live off the land" and cannot be isolated]

  Better to have them in front of the lines than behind them.  Unless theyfail to move and honor the cease fire, they will not be engaged, isolated or not. 

Recommend units at Chiu Chow entrain and leave by RR - it is faster - unless you WANT them pocketed.IJA will wait for the RR lines to clear.  Move two units off 82,59 (clearing a primary road otherwise Japanese controlled) - and we will move off83,58 - and not use that road to move into the pocket.  While the ROC unit at 83,58 appears to have 960 men, and be vulnerable to attack, it may stay (contesting rough terrain) if desired.  Once we leave we won't comeback down that road for the duration of the truce.  No other offensive operations will be conducted, apart from clearing up pockets of isolated units.No decision is made re 76,58, Chao Ching, but it is proposed to designate it as part of the Wuchow pocketarea, pending review and how the rest of the withdrawal goes.  It does not seem wise to mess up what seemed to be compliance with the agreement, even if it was premature.

Submarines have reported units at Lugainville for many days, and sank several ships.
But air recon did not reveal any units on land until yesterday. Today's recon reveals
6 units. This probably creates a problem for the invasion force nominally scheduled to
land tomorrow. The enemy likely was surprised because of savage fighting around Midway.
The impression may have existed all the Pacific Ocean carriers were there. They did
not fear carrier strikes in the south Pacific, possibly.
