Introduction
The PLA's combat capability is second to none. The picture shows a synthetic brigade of our army wearing a new starry sky camouflage
How big is the gap between the Taiwan army and the PLA:
There are always Taiwanese people who say how the Taiwan army is. Many people don't understand how big the gap between the Taiwan army and the PLA is. Whether it is weapons and equipment or fighting will, Taiwan's " Strawberry Soldier " is at an absolute disadvantage. It can be said that the armies of both sides are no longer on the same level. Today we will take a look at the strength gap between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait.

1. Comparison of weapons and equipment between the two sides
Martial weapons and equipment have been updated
Today's People's Liberation Army has all achieved mechanization, and the construction of information technology has also made significant progress, and the military weapons and equipment have been completely renewed. First of all, the army's equipment has been greatly updated. Chinese Army is no longer the traditional infantry that relied on "Xiaomi plus rifles" in wars and two legs. The overall equipment of the army has basically been modernized.
The 72nd Army has made outstanding achievements in the military
Take the 72nd Army on the Taiwan Strait in the Eastern Theater Command for example. The former was the 6th Column of the Central Plains Field Army, which made immortal contributions to the complete annihilation of Huang Wei's Corps in the Huaihai Campaign. fought with the US military head-on in the Battle of Shangganling, , causing major damage to the US military (Hangganling, position was stationed by the 15th Army in the early stage, and later the 12th Army took over). The battle between the two armies of China and the United States has made the US military lingering fears. Today, the army is stationed in , the eastern coastal area of , responsible for combat missions in the Taiwan Strait. A heavy synthetic brigade of the army has completed the dressing.

04A infantry fighting vehicle gives infantry firepower
04A infantry fighting vehicle can be called the world's most powerful infantry fighting vehicle, equipped with 1 100mm main gun and 1 30mm vehicle-mounted artillery. Western countries infantry fighting vehicles mostly use 30mm machine cannon . From here, we can see that the firepower of the 04A infantry fighting vehicle is very strong. What is this? Our army's synthetic battalion can get direct aiming fire support from 56 vehicle-mounted artillery.
armored conveyor vehicle equipped by the Taiwan Army has only one 12.7mm machine gun
Taiwan Army Mechanized Infantry Brigade's main weapon is a 12.7mm Browning M2 heavy machine gun. The firepower gap between the two sides is too big, and it is not a match of the same level at all.
Eastern Theater Command Air Force has strong strength
Recently, an aviation brigade stationed in the Yangtze River Delta region has undergone a major change of clothes. The entire brigade has replaced the latest "bomb truck" J-16 heavy twin-engine fighter from the backward second-generation J-8F fighter. This news is very informative, which means that all the aviation brigades in the Eastern Theater Command have been replaced with more than three generations of modern fighter jets.
J-16 fighter is an important equipment for the modernization and upgrading of the Air Force. Its maximum range exceeds 3,000 kilometers, its combat radius reaches 1,200 kilometers, and it can carry 8 tons of ammunition for ground strikes. The latest fighter equipped by the Taiwan military is still the F-16V fighter jet introduced from the United States. The light fighter cannot compare with the heavy fighter in terms of combat radius and ammunition load, and the maximum ammunition load of F-16V is less than 5 tons, and the strength gap is obvious.
modern-class missile destroyer equipped by a destroyer detachment (Iron Fist Detachment) in the Eastern Theater Command main task is to provide maritime fire support to
our army landing troops
East China Sea Fleet 2 The main destroyer detachment was fully upgraded
The modernization of the Chinese Navy The process has shocked some foreigners. Take the East China Sea Fleet facing the Taiwan Strait as an example. The two main destroyer detachments ( are the Iron Fist Detachment, and the other is the first surface ship unit of the Chinese Navy.) has been replaced. The two detachments of are equipped with a total of 27 modern surface combat ships, most of which are domestically produced 052C/052D missile destroyers.
The strongest navy in Taiwan is the introduction of four Kid-class destroyers , which are more than 30 years old. Whether it is the missile vertical launch device, anti-ship missile , or the information level, has surpassed the "Kidd" class destroyer 20 years or more.
It can be said that the People's Liberation Army's army, navy and air force weapons and equipment have been comprehensively improved. The troops' weapons and equipment are basically modern weapons. Such equipment level is first-class in both the Taiwan Strait and even the world.
Taiwan Army's M-60 tanks are already seriously lagging behind
Americans also know that arms sales to Taiwan cannot be too much played. Even if the Taiwanese army can purchase the US military's weapons and equipment, the weapons and equipment they get are basically second-rate, which is seriously lagging behind compared with the People's Liberation Army. Compared with the People's Liberation Army, the gap between the Taiwan Army is not only in terms of weapons and equipment, but also in other levels.
The instructor of the machine gun company of the 3rd Battalion of the 338th Regiment who participated in the battle recalled the battle scenes
2. The battle will between the two sides was very different
The Second Battle of Resisting U.S. Aggression and Aiding Korea Our army made the world amazed
0 In the Western Front Operation of the Second Battle of Resisting U.S. Aggression and Aiding Korea, the task of the 38th Army of the Volunteer Army was to capture Tokugawa, and then it was interspersed into Sansouli to block the US military's journey to escape south. After accepting the order, the 338th Regiment of the 113th Division of the 438th Army forced its troops to march 72.5 kilometers within 14 hours, setting a world record in the history of human light infantry . 338 Regiment was only 5 minutes earlier than the US military, but it was nailed into the three stations like nails. The US military used the firepower of aviation and artillery to shoot wildly, but still could not shake the blocking position of the Volunteer Army. In this battle, the 38th Army killed, wounded and captured more than 8,000 US troops. After the Second Battle, the title of "Long Live Army" of the 38th Army was well-known throughout the army.
Today, the 113th Division is still retained in the combat sequence of our army. After the military reform, the 113th Division transformed into a medium-sized synthetic brigade. The brigade is equipped with the Type 08 wheeled armored vehicle tribe, and the troops' firepower, maneuverability and protection capabilities have reached world-class level.
0 The 15th Army troops who hold the Shangganling position
The Battle of Shangganling gave the 15th Army "in a battle of gods"
What is the combat effectiveness of the People's Liberation Army? The US military has the most say. During the Battle of Resisting U.S. Aggression and Aiding Korea, the 45th Division of the 15th Army of the Volunteer Army defended the 537.7 and 597.9 highlands on the frontier of Shangganling. The US military dropped 1.9 million artillery shells on the position less than 4.3 kilometers of Shangganling and plowed the Shangganling position back and forth several times. The surface positions of the 45th Division in Shangganling have been completely lost. We dug tunnels on the back slope of the mountain to avoid the US artillery fire.
Shangganling tunnel combat
The most serious problem with the volunteer army tunnel positions in Shangganling is water shortage. Many soldiers have been unable to drink water for several consecutive days. Later, they found that apples can quench their thirst. The 15th Army took out all the procurement funds and purchased 20,000 apples in Pyongyang . The 15th Army set a standard for meritorious service. As long as a basket of apples is sent, they can remember their personal second-class merit.
A single apple is enough to tell everything
The US military set up an artillery blockade between our frontier positions and the second-line positions. It is difficult for the troops to pass through the "death zone" up to 800 meters. Most of the soldiers died under the US artillery fire. Only one soldier rushed through the artillery blockade. Before entering the tunnel, the soldiers grabbed the apples on the ground and rolled into the tunnel.This apple was passed on to the 8th Company warriors many times, and no one could bear to eat it. Finally, the company commander gave the order that the seriously injured would eat it first, then the slightly injured would eat it, and the combatants would eat it. an apple was passed on to the 8th Company warriors three times before they finished eating it.
Today's "Eighth Company of Special Practice" has grown into an airborne company
The US military has never understood why the US military used 8 battalions of troops, with casualties of up to 25,000, but could not capture the two small high grounds of the Volunteer Army. After the war of , the 8th Company was awarded the honorary title of "Shangganling Special Merit 8th Company", and has now been adapted into an airborne force.
How does the fighting will of the Taiwan Army
Today's Taiwan Army inherit the mantle of the Kuomintang army, but the earlier achievements of the Kuomintang army were too "touching". Today's Taiwan Army is just a tool for some "Taiwan independence elements" in Taiwan to achieve their personal political goals. The Taiwan Army's fighting will is low and is nicknamed "Strawberry Soldiers". This is an army that is not even willing to sweat too much. When it comes to war, do you still hope they will bleed and fight to the death?

Taiwan military "embarrassing things"
Taiwan media exposed a photo of a Taiwanese infantry shooting target. A Taiwanese soldier was lying on the iron frame in a lie-down position, with a layer of cushion on the iron frame. What's even more incredible is that there is actually a parasol above. The delicate Taiwanese military "Strawberry Soldier" conducts military training under such superior conditions. I wonder if he is adapted to the real battlefield environment? Now when the Taiwan military conducts outdoor military training, officers must carry thermometers with them. If the temperature exceeds 32 degrees, they must stop training, because the high temperature will affect the training effect.
How to train Taiwan’s army
The training intensity of the Taiwan army is very low. The physical fitness test of the Taiwan army’s recruits requires the number of push-ups to be reduced from 80 to 30. The passing standard for 3 kilometers of running is lightweight for 19 minutes. The PLA infantry training outline requires that the combatant assessment of the five-kilometer armed cross-country pass line is 21 minutes. It should be noted here. First of all, the People's Liberation Army runs 5 kilometers, and secondly, it is required to be fully armed and carry a load of 20-22 kilograms. From this we can see that Taiwan’s “Strawberry Soldiers” have a very poor combat effectiveness. Some Taiwanese media have compared the Taiwan military to the national army back then, and the Taiwan military is far worse than the national army back then.
Eastern Theater Command equipment has been given priority replacement. The picture shows PCL-191 long-range rocket launcher equipped by a brigade of the Eastern Theater Command
3, the traditional army of both sides
Eastern Theater Command 3 armies are all heroic troops
00 People's Liberation Army is an army that emphasizes historical heritage. After many disarmament, those who can be retained are heroic troops with outstanding achievements. Take Eastern Theater Command Army as an example. The predecessor of The 71st Army was the old Eighth Route Army unit of Taiyue Military Region , which is affiliated with Shanxi, Hebei, Shandong and Henan Military Region . The predecessor of the 72nd Army was the 1st Column of the Northwest Field Army. is a heroic force developed on the basis of the Hunan-Hubei-Western Red Army. It participated in the Fumei Battle and the Xifu Battle, and made great achievements in the liberation of the Great Northwest.
The 73rd Army was predecessored by the 13th Column of the East China Field Army. Its history can be traced back to the old Eighth Route Army of Shandong Military Region . During the Jinan Battle, the 109th Regiment of the 37th Division of the 13th Column was awarded the honorary title of "Jinan Second Regiment", which shows that the troops have very strong combat effectiveness. The 71st Army and the 72nd Army are both ace troops fighting for the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea.
Taiwan Army Table
How is the history of the Taiwan Army
Taiwan Army also emphasizes historical heritage, but the history of the Kuomintang army is really not very brilliant. During the three-year Liberation War, more than 4 million regular troops were annihilated and adapted by the People's Liberation Army. The national army that escaped to Taiwan by chance had basically been surrounded and annihilated many times and then reorganized. It has no inheritance relationship with the original national army, such as the "Lion Force" of the 269th Brigade of the Army stationed in northern Taiwan. The predecessor of was the 207th Division of the Youth Army that was completely wiped out in Liaoshen Campaign. The 333rd Brigade of the 6 was the first teaching regiment of the Whampoa Military Academy. After experiencing the Great Wall War of Resistance, , it is known to the "Puguang" troops to the outside world. The teaching regiment that year has now become a pawn who has worked for Taiwan independence, which is very regrettable.
4. Conclusion
Today, there is a huge gap between the Taiwanese army, both weapons and equipment, and fighting will and the People's Liberation Army. Under the instigation of "Taiwan independence elements", the Taiwanese army has become the "private armed forces" of some politicians. The People's Liberation Army is a people's army. As long as the country needs it, the People's Liberation Army is still the tiger and wolf army that crossed the Yalu River with great confidence.
