Communist China joins the Allies. Japan drives towards Chengdu to flank the Chinese positions and prevent any reinforcements from shifting north.

The Communist Chinese are cut off and stuck in Yenan. It appears just an army and engineer unit are remaining to defend the path to Lanchow.

The Chinese northern front is completely collapsing as even HQs are now exposed and being attacked.

Thoughts
GG. Quick turns back and forth by Elvis.
So I was a bit surprised by the early surrender. China was in bad shape but most players at least play out Barbarossa to see how it goes. China probably would have surrendered in late 1941 or early 1942 allowing Japan to then pressure the USSR from the east in 1942.
The Allies were incredibly passive which given some of the games Elvis posts, was surprising as well. I was expecting some crazy moves and invasions and really the UK did almost nothing. Didn't really contest France. Hadn't finished off Africa even against minimal Axis garrisons. Didn't attack the Axis navies. Didn't invade anywhere. Not really sure what their plan was but unless they did something soon the USSR was doomed by Germany alone. Germany had built all the tanks and bombers and was planning to invade in Apr/May once weather cleared. China also was very passive, mostly running behind the US mobilization line and sitting in the south watching the Japanese push right through in the north.
Kind of felt like I was playing the AI! Seems the Legend was no where to be found...
