Well, I tried a Qing Conquest. If you are fortunate, you can get your Army in HK, while the RAJ trudges through western China. If not, you can invade ( research transports) the southern ports or join the trudge. Unfortuantely I kept the Opium War going ( mabe you have to) so just when Beijing ( the last part of China) was about to fall the hard-wired white peace fired and I lost all my gains. so maybe I will try without the Opium War.
