About what I expected from the Russians, still looking for payback from 1904-5. With the XXIInd's back to the Russian border and receiving supplies from them, they're in no danger of being cut off. If we push then across the border, then legally, they need to be interned until the end of the war, but the Russians will probably skirt the legality by releasing them back to China. The only solution is to fight a decisive battle against a prepared and numerically superior foe.
Unless we allow the 3rd Corps' right flank to "collapse" and let the Chinese "break out" to the South. Keep them hemmed up against the coast, and then they run into entrenched reinforcements. Once they are in this new pocket, cut their line of communication near the Russian border. Then their backs are to the sea, and we can actually starve them out.
Ideally, I'd have the 2nd along the Yalu remain defensive, and pull some of their stronger divisions for a concentrated assault force to break the Chinese flank near the headwaters of the Yalu. Then, if we could screen them from the IXth, the 4th Corps could race for the Yellow Sea and cut off the peninsula.
Not enough divisions. There's never enough divisions. Actually, aren't Japanese divisions hilariously over-sized? Something like 20k-25k men? Wehrmacht divisions were 15-16k men, but that included non-combat troops and logistics. Red Army divisions were 11-12k men, but had more combat troops, since they kicked non-combat and logistical units up to corps and army level. Maybe it's something we can work towards post-war.
