The Battle of South Guangxi (Traditional Chinese: ; Simplified Chinese: }}}; pinyin: ), was one of the 22 major engagements between the National Revolutionary Army and Imperial Japanese Army during the Second Sino-Japanese War.
In this battle the Japanese successfully cut off Chongqing from the sea, effectively severing foreign aid to China's war efforts by the sea, rendering the Burma Road and The Hump as the only way to send aid to China for quite some time.
The Chinese were able to launch several major offensives that maximized Japanese casualties. Majority of the conflicts occured in the contention for Kunlun Pass. By November 1940, Japanese force were essentially driven out of Guangxi.
