Baby Kido Butai operates near Manado. I have to retreat to safety again. Since I have enough PP I try to download every available unit. About half of the defenders have been boarded from Manado, but I fear the ships will be sunk. Japanese reconnaissance discovered them.
I tried to surprise the enemy in North China, but I can't do it in Kweisui or Paotow. He's brought in reinforcements and I'd rather try to retreat. The two main attacks will apparently be directed at Changha and Nanyang.
A convoy of five ships from Hong Kong was sunk
