Not quite. They had to sneak in supplies and reinforcements from Rabaul on fast destroyers. Nicknamed the “Tokyo Express”.

The Shanghai Express will be thousands of kilometers long, not hundreds.

Yes. Later on our submarine fleet made the other thousands of kilometers of Japanese supply lines dangerous. A similar situation to what the Chicoms would face.
