Li Jishen laughed, the Japanese were very nearly defeated. Their strategic islands were secured and only one final strategic location remained to conquer—Hainan.
The island hopping campaign was a success, no Japanese ships were present to interfere in the operations. Tinian fell, as did Palau, Yap, Ulithi, Truk, Kwajalein, and Enitewok—the rest were minor islands that did not need to be taken. There was no resistance on any of them, all the garrisons had been sent to Japan to fight the Chinese.
Golukjin continuing his long island hopping campaign, landing on Tinian.
When Ulithi fell the Japanese government panicky pushed for peace again, promising all their islands in addition to their old mainland territories. Wang JingWei had simply laughed in their faces.
Yet another Japanese peace offer.
On the Home Islands, Li Jishen decided to push on to Hiroshima even though it was not a strategic location. His army, twelve divisions, smashed into the nearly-as-strong but disorganized Japanese force holding that last foothold and shattered them. Ten Japanese divisions, of which most were fortress divisions, were destroyed. Only two Japanese strongholds remained, Jeju and Hainan. Only Hainan remained to be secured before Japan could be formally annexed.
The victorious assault on Hiroshima.
Quit this 3-divs landings on undefended islands. You can use 1 div on each island and land in few places at the same time.
So if you have the famous five research slots China is now a "Grande Puissance" and would quickly ask some changes in international relations
Hummm... Anxious to see which would be your next target, for the Good of the Great Nation and Best Civilisation in the world, naturelly!

I also wonder where the Dragon's wandering eye might settle once the Eastern Sun has set and the Chrysanthemum has wilted?
Earth's Savior said:Silly Japanese. They can't surrender.
they can't properly fight first and then they can't properly surrender...wow, all thumbs up for Guangxi!
Li Jishen sat down. He almost felt empty. It was June 12, 1940; China had been at war with Japan since August 15, 1936. It was just sixty-three days short of a full four years of war between the once fragmented China led by the Guangxi Clique and the Empire of Japan. It was, however, over.
There had still been one island, one stronghold that remained to be taken: Hainan. Tired, Li Jishen simply authorized an all out, massive attack on the island. Zhang Xueliang took care of the actual tactical battle, commanding the immense force of one hundred and four divisions against the twenty-six defending Japanese divisions.
The final battle: Hainan.
The Japanese could not hold. Their front buckled underneath the sheer weight of Chinese fire- and manpower and the twenty-six divisions were destroyed. Hainan lay free for the taking.
The last victory.
But somehow, none of the units sitting in Zhanjiang had the honor of setting foot on Hainan first. That distinction went to Golukjin’s corps, which was transported all the way from Enitewok and hit Hainan’s undefended beaches, arriving before those men who had for so long protected Zhanjiang. Li Jishen smiled; it was the last island, after all.
The last amphibious assault, against the last undefended beach.
At 18:00 on June 12, 1940, Li Jishen announced to the world the annexation of Japan. The navy refused to believe it and scuttled their ships, turning Hainan Strait and the Inland Sea into massive ship graveyards. Li Jishen closed his eyes. Now that peace was upon China again, it was time to return to administration. He had directives to issue and a cabinet meeting to schedule for the end of the month.
Annexation, at last.

Simply brilliant. We tryed a China Warlords GC with a friend of mine (MP that is)... But we got nowhere near this.

i never would have thought you would get so far.
could we have a tech, army, navy, air update?

Didn't he already say a few posts back that Yunnan would be magically assimilated into china as soon as the war with Japan was over? Why on earth would he combat them for the privilage?

OK, I know Beethoven is not precisely appropriate for the Clique, but it's the thought that counts!
