just do it and do it for real! "The People's Liberation Army will conduct exercises to seize Dongsha"
html On May 11, news came from the Maritime Safety Administration of the People's Republic of China that our army will conduct a two-month military exercise in the Jingtang Port Area of Tangshan Port.People's Daily Overseas Edition once again issued a warning on Taiwan independence on May 12: "Don't say it was unforeseen."
Immediately afterwards, Japanese media reported that the People's Liberation Army was planning to attack Dongsha in order to establish an air defense identification zone in the South China Sea.
Especially as soon as the report that the People's Liberation Army was going to attack Dongsha came out, coupled with the first two explosive news, it caused a great shock in Taiwan. In particular, the Taiwan military repeatedly gave various explanations, and the result was that the more it was smeared, the darker it became. The whole of Taiwan is even more panicked.
The Taiwan military attaches great importance to this report. At the regular press conference of Taiwan's "Ministry of Defense" on the morning of the 12th, Taiwan's "Ministry of Defense" spokesperson Shi Shunwen emphasized that "the national military uses joint intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance operations to monitor the surrounding communist military exercises and military developments. Fully grasp and respond promptly.” Currently, Dongsha and Taiping Islands are garrisoned by Taiwan's Coast Guard. The officers and soldiers stationed on the islands are trained by the Taiwan Marine Corps. They are equipped with mortars, rapid-fire machine guns and other artillery, and have the strength of light infantry.
(Note, this troop strength is too small)
Lin Wenhuang, director of the Joint Operations Division of Taiwan's "Ministry of Defense" Planning Office, declared that the Taiwan military has relevant response mechanisms and support plans for outlying islands, and the combat readiness of troops stationed on the islands Duty, artillery shooting, combat skills and logistics maintenance, and related combat readiness work "have the same strong combat capabilities as the Marine Corps and can ensure the safety of the island." Taiwan's "United Daily News" stated that the mortar positions on Dongsha Island are hidden under the surface and are "solid and usable." Taiwan's "Coast Patrol Administration" stated on the 12th that the Coast Guard garrison in Dongsha is expected to conduct a fire drill in June to "verify the firing effectiveness of various mortars and machine guns on the island."
In addition to speculation that "the People's Liberation Army's seizure of Dongsha is intended to open up domestic aircraft carriers to the Pacific Ocean", Lin Yingyou, assistant professor at the Institute of Strategy and International Affairs at National Chung Cheng University in Taiwan, also believes that the People's Liberation Army's exercise area is incompatible with the widely rumored "South China Sea Air Defense" The "South China Sea Air Defense Identification Zone" partially overlaps, so it may also be preparation for the next step of setting up the "South China Sea Air Defense Identification Zone". News about
is flying all over the sky. The mainland is happy to hear it, and Taiwan is starting to get excited.
Speculations from all sides are even more eye-catching
It is said that the most important thing in a war is surprise and quick resolution. Before we even take action, all kinds of gossip are already flying all over the sky, and it was the Japanese media that spread the news. Of course, Mainland China is far more powerful than 4V. Even if someone finds out, there is no fear that he will be able to do something wrong, but what is the purpose of doing this?
Dongsha is indeed important. It is the throat from the Pacific Ocean to the South China Sea and is exactly the center of the narrow sea area. We won't just capture Dongsha. We want to attack the outer islands of Taiwan. It's best to attack Taiping Island, Kinmen, Mazu, and Penghu together.
In addition, the capture of Dongsha poses no threat to the main island of Taiwan, but it is of great significance to the control of the South China Sea. This should be related to the legendary air defense identification zone in the South China Sea. Even if the islands are not taken, the airspace of the Dongsha Islands must be actually controlled. It is very Big, Taiwan dares to say no and take the main island together.
There is another theory:
This news should be a smoke bomb to cover up the news of direct attack on Taiwan Island. The strategic significance of regaining and reunifying Taiwan is not greater than occupying Dongsha Island. After regaining Taiwan, the Dongsha Islands surrendered without a fight. The first island chain will be destroyed without attack. What's the point of going out of the Bashi Strait to the east?
Really fight, how to fight?
Regarding the "theory of military unification", although most academic circles in Taiwan believe that the possibility is low, because considering the state of the great power game between China and the United States, a sudden military unification of Taiwan will cause a sudden change in the stable state of the game, especially at present. Taiwan is at a high level of contact with the international community because of the COVID-19 epidemic, which will have a strong impact on the existing international order. However, since ancient times, it has been said that there is no fear of war and deceit. It is not impossible to liberate Taiwan at this time.
The Eastern Theater Command published three articles in a row "Preparing for War", which shows that there is an arrow on the string. Otherwise, what would be the point of having a strong army?
The People's Liberation Army has long had no illusions. All it wants to do is take back the island, and taking back the island is technically not difficult.
Therefore, all combat preparations are to crush the interference of the US military. If the US military dares to invade, then I think the People's Liberation Army will be happy to compete again. Otherwise, just for the small island, there is no need to make so many preparations. Mainland China and Taiwan The comparison of military strength is no longer what it used to be.
For example, if the People's Liberation Army really wants to seize Dongsha, facing several islands and reefs guarded by hundreds of people, the People's Liberation Army Marine Corps only needs a small landing fleet to complete the task perfectly.
In November 1999, the "Marine Corps" Dongsha Garrison Area Command of the Taiwan military stationed on Dongsha Island (with the 414th Battalion of the 658th Regiment of the 99th Marine Division as the backbone of the garrison force, with a strength of 5 37 people), transferred the defense to the Southern Patrol Department under the Ministry of Military Control and the Coast Guard, and established the Dongsha Command; on February 1, 2000, the department was transferred to the Dongsha Command of the Southern Patrol Bureau under the Coast Guard of the Coast Guard, Executive Yuan So far.
In Dongsha, the Taiwanese army returned with only a few manned guns, mortars, rapid-fire machine guns and other artillery, and only had the strength of light infantry.
At that time, two 071 dock landing ships plus two 052Ds will be used. First, the 130 naval guns on the two 052Ds will carry out a devastating attack on the fortifications of the Taiwanese troops stationed on the island. The two 071 dock landing ships will take off 4 The Zhi-10 armed helicopters launched follow-up fire at the remaining Taiwanese troops at close range, completely suppressing the remaining firepower of the Taiwanese troops. In addition, 071 Wudeng and 052D are also equipped with integrated surveillance and attack armed helicopters, which can monitor the battlefield for a long time and attack Taiwanese troops when they show up. In the final stage of the battle, Dock 071 launched six Type 726 hovercrafts and more than a dozen ZBD-05 amphibious infantry fighting vehicles. It was basically a battalion of amphibious armored troops to land on the beach and win the battle in one fell swoop. The outcome of this victory was nothing. Questionable.
The battle can be divided into the stage of persuading surrender. As long as the Taiwan army surrenders, prisoners will be treated preferentially according to our army's policy. If you struggle to the death and resist desperately, our army will constantly change tactics and increase firepower depending on the intensity of the resistance. If you don't give in, you will be annihilated on the spot!
Another strategy used by our army is to "encircle the point and provide reinforcements". The war in Dongsha is tense, and Taiwan is arrogant and sends a large number of ships to rush for reinforcements.
That just suited our military's appetite. The South China Sea Fleet immediately organized a force to encircle and suppress it. The Air Force's H-6K was under the cover of the J-20. By the way, it tried to see if the YJ-12 supersonic anti-ship missile prepared for the US aircraft carrier was as good as Taiwan's Xiong. Three awesome. The ending of
can be imagined!
As for whether this battle will be a "pretend to the east to attack the west" or "Zhang Fei deceives the horse", pretending to attack Dongsha, and then focusing on the main island. . . . . .
can only be developed and watched.
