how to annex mengkukuo
hello,

i just played my first japanese campaign (still waking the tiger) and my aim was to annex all of china (as we know it today).

unfortunatly, since mengkukuo does not possess any convois i was not able to decrease their autonomy with lend leases in order to annex them. infrastructure and factories are already maxed out but i still need 1000 points to annex them.

...is it worth to build airports and forts to decrease the autonomy? does that work?

send them guns, tanks, planes, whatever. When you annex them you'll get all the equipment back

OP literally said they couldn't do this because Mengkukuo has no convoys with which to pick up and transport the equipment.

even for sending covoys you need convoys... so if they have zero it does not work.

Will take some time probably because the focus i like -1 per day und you probobly go to through multiple autonomy stages with euch a few hundred points

that's untrue, it doesn't require convoys to send them

You don't need convoys to send gear. Convoys are for naval delivery and a land locked country does not need convoys to receive gear. They share a border with you, roads exist...

How does Japan send a land-locked country equipment if convoys are not used?

They have both Mengkukou and Manchuko as puppets. They likely send it through the puppets. They own Korea and simply pass it through Manchuko, which then goes to Mengkukou. I'm not a paradox employee or hardcore HOI4 player, I don't know how they justify this nonesense...

They don't need convoys to get their lend lease considering where they are at. If you play Mengkukou you realize they will send you gear throughout!

From my experience this isn't the case, I'm pretty sure it's based on where your capital is in relation to theirs. Trying to annex a puppeted Canada despite owning Nefoundland right on their border still required them to slowly move across all the equipment I was sending them because they didn't have enough convoys.
