Japan makes one attack in central Manchuria (61,152). Current odds is 46:4, or +19. Japan has one winterized unit that might add +1 to the attack.
Will USSR add any defensive air? Japan has two FTR2 available.

I forgot to mention that the Japanese Special Naval Landing Force (SNLF) retreated from the advancing Chinese further into the mountains.

Stalin is concerned about the German troop build up on the Polish border and would like to know if Adolf intends to honor the Molotov-Ribbentrop 10 year non agression treaty.
