strategy 2. justify wargoal on nationalist china and finish it before japan attacks them. start preparing yourself for the invasion. join the battle when china lost most of the eastern coastal states. push hard. more losses = better cause u have more warscore. dont forget to join japan's faction so they give you most of the land in the peacedeal. in the peacedeal, you get most of the land(if not everything)). then u prepare to invade japan

u can use DEI manpower
whenever i have puppets, i make a garrison template using a subject' template
