I have a couple of questions regarding Vietnam/Indochina during WW2.
1)How many troops did the IJA have in Vietnam? Where were they concentrated? Some research I have done seems to indicate the majority of the IJA was based in Tonkin. Tonkin is/was the extreme northern region bordering China.
2)If the Allies were going to invade Indochina, please don't worry about the
how and why, where would they land? I was looking at the area around Hanoi and Haiphong. There was a railroad running from Haiphong to Kunming, China. The object would be to link up with RoC Army and fight the IJA in south China.
I don't expect exact numbers or details. A rough educated guess would be good.
Thanks for reading and responding
