I managed to do it with 2 shiden kai ni, a model 21 skilled, hien, 3 saiun and the rest filled with model 52s. I was sitting on around 2k bauxite and 10 buckets, after I got an S at node A, so it was pretty desperate for me. For the land base defense, it was pretty difficult to get a white message with my planes.

Being very low on bauxite, I filled all my cv and cvl with only green guns, and 1 sauin for a cvl, so they don't require bauxite, and help me through node c and e. I also gave green guns to some of my other ships, instead of the red ones. Have atleast 1 slow bb in your team to go through node c and e, and have maya or a duck for aaci to get through them more reliably. I even sometimes get an s on those two nodes with this setup. I had depth charge plus sonars for my cl and dd to get through the first node more easily. After a base defense, I do the node and retreat. However, sometimes the base defense happens at node g which could damage my ships easily, as my cv have no planes and most of my ships have green guns. I only have around 10 buckets,  so if the base defense failed, I would sometimes refresh kancolle without doing node g (I try to not always do this, as it could get me banned). It costed me around 70-100 bauxite per run for the land base, and almost nothing for my cv. After a lot of runs, waiting for my bauxite to regen, some more runs, I unlocked the second starting point after the 4th white message. It was very frustrating for me with the resources and planes I had, but I managed to get through in the end. I wish you the best of luck.
