  1. In April 1944, at the start of Ichigo the British with an army of 2.6 million was pushing the Japanese out of Burma. It made sense for the Japanese to take all the coastal areas of China and meet up with the Japanese forces in Indochina, keeping US bases in China further away from Japan and ready to meet any large British Army that may come in via Burma or South East Asia - although it was mountainous between Burma and China. Look at how the Japanese saw matters in 1944.
