Taiwan will always be an inseparable part of China.
In May 1950, Su Yu, the god of war, was fully responsible and carefully commanded. A total of 800,000 troops of the three fields gathered on the southeast coast, ready to go, ready to liberate Taiwan in one fell swoop.
Unexpectedly, in June of the same year, the Korean War broke out.
The US military took the opportunity to dispatch the Seventh Fleet , occupying the ports of Kaohsiung and Keelung, and patrolling the Taiwan Strait unscrupulously.
Because the navy and air force are too disadvantaged, and the country also needs to concentrate its forces, give priority to defending the country, and winning to resist the US aggression and aid Korea . Therefore, the action against Taiwan can only be temporarily delayed.
But I did not expect that this slowdown would lead to the split of Taiwan for more than 70 years.
I have to say, this is a huge regret. Whether it is on the spiritual level or on the benefit level!
After all, Taiwan can be called the keyhole of the first island chain in the Pacific.
From a strategic point of view, it is not only a natural barrier for my country's southeast coast, but also a gateway for the powerful navy to the blue sea, so its importance is beyond doubt.
Conversely, it can also be said that if there is an ill-intentioned enemy country who wants to use Taiwan, then it is an "unsinkable aircraft carrier", which can directly threaten the most prosperous South China, Southeast China and East China, so its harm is also not mentioned. Metaphor.
Taiwanese writer Li Ao once used an analogy for this: "Taiwan is China's testicles, it hurts when you touch it."
This description is really vivid.
Just imagine,Whose " testis " has been out of the body for 70 years, and some people want to pinch it from time to time. How does it feel?
can only be said to be true " egg hurts ", I am afraid I have the heart to die!
Li Ao’s description is bold and sharp
Welcome to continue reading, stay tuned to learn more!
01
"Liberation of Taiwan" has always been a basic national policy.
As early as the Fifth National People's Congress, this requirement was clearly written into the Constitution.
The country’s determination to unify Taiwan has never changed.
It's just that in different historical periods, different measures have different opinions on how to unify Taiwan.
On January 28, 1979, the first day of the Lunar New Year, Deng Xiaoping, then Vice Premier of the State Council, was invited to pay a grand state visit to the United States.
The main purpose of the trip, there were two at that time:
①Make full preparations for reform and opening up, and strive for a peaceful environment, advanced technology and overseas funds;
②Explore some kind of cooperation to fully respond to the northern military threat.
During his time in the United States, Deng Xiaoping won the goodwill of the media and the public with his unique frank, humorous and tough style, and generated extremely widespread attention.
No matter where it goes, there are waves of "Deng's whirlwind".
Deng Xiaoping's visit to the United States
The famous geopolitician Brzezinski,Appointed by US President Carter , he is responsible for accompanying and receiving the Chinese delegation throughout the process.
At the welcome dinner, he said half-jokingly: "The French and the Chinese have one thing in common, that is, they always think that their civilization is the best."
This sentence seems flattering, but it implies mystery. .
After all, all countries in the world have recognized one thing, that is, the Gallic rooster is too arrogant and difficult to deal with. The relationship between France and the United States was also very complicated at the time.
Therefore, Brzezinski simply used France to make an analogy with China, which not only contained a slight ridicule, but also secretly tested China's attitude.
Deng Xiaoping was confident, smiled and replied: "Of course, you can say that! In East Asia, Chinese food is the best. In Europe, French food is the best!"
This answer is really too good. That's great.
First of all, Deng Xiaoping did not get angry because of the extraneous meaning, but remained calm and polite, which is very decent in diplomatic situations. It fully proves that Chinese leaders are very mature in diplomacy and are very responsible international players.
Secondly, Deng Xiaoping replaced Brzezinski’s term “civilized” with the term “cooking”. By only secretly changing a concept, he easily resolved the opponent’s provocation and implicitly showed China’s standing in line. This reflects a high degree of diplomatic wisdom.
In the end, Deng Xiaoping did not deny Brzezinski’s words and considered more comprehensively.
If you change people, your response may not be so perfect.
Then you will really fall into the discourse trap. After the media with ulterior motives announce the report, you will really make an international appearance.
For example, in order to make an easy answer, Chinese and French are actually different. Then this sentence will undoubtedly offend the French.
or just be humble,Declining that the Chinese are not proud and do not think that their civilization is the best. So obviously in addition to offending the French, it will also be a manifestation of cultural unconfidence.
So, only Deng Xiaoping’s answer is the best.
is not only humorous, but also intelligent, and even took the time to promote Chinese restaurants and attract traffic.
No wonder Brzezinski nodded and smiled at the scene. After listening to the broadcast, all Americans were very impressed.
After all, they have become accustomed to Khrushchev’s diplomatic method, which is to knock on the table with big leather shoes when speaking at the United Nations.
Khrushchev holding leather shoes
During the summit meeting, President Carter posed a difficult problem, saying that he hoped that China would declare freedom of immigration to help obtain the most-favored-nation status of the United States.
In fact, this is not only to look for trouble, but also to increase the bargaining power of the United States.
But Deng Xiaoping smiled and easily blocked it: "Immigration is no problem for China. China has 1 billion people. How much does the United States want? Give you 10 million, is it enough?"
10 million people? If 10 million people are not enough, what about 100 million people?
At that time, I am afraid that the United States will become Chinese.
So this question, Carter couldn't answer, so he had to laugh and conceal the past.
Of course, at the end of the picture, the most difficult issue is Taiwan.
It is strange to say that the talks between the two countries should be about major issues between the two parties, but some people always like to take care of other people's household affairs.
02
During Deng Xiaoping’s visit to the United States,Become the focus of the world's major media.
The reporter who interviewed Deng Xiaoping's visit to the United States exceeded the scale of covering the Olympic Games, reaching more than 1,100 people.
The three major television stations of ABC, NBC and CBS in the United States also prioritized their arrangements during the prime time of the evening, where they covered every meeting without fail.
The atmosphere is very lively, and negotiations are still arduous.
In order to bridge the difference in core interests, Deng Xiaoping and Carter held three consecutive talks.
Regarding the international situation, Deng Xiaoping said that Vietnam, which invaded Cambodia, was a local hegemonist in Asia and expressed great concern about the possible alliance between Moscow and Hanoi.
This has undoubtedly attracted the attention of the United States.
Regarding the Taiwan issue, Carter expressed the hope that Deng Xiaoping would speak publicly during his stay in the United States, mentioning the Taiwan issue and using the words "peaceful" and "patient".
Deng Xiaoping thought for a while and made a comprehensive explanation.
Deng Xiaoping talks
It's just here that the United States may have played a "little trick".
When Deng Xiaoping talked about Taiwan, there was a "big oolong" incident .
A section of Deng Xiaoping's conversation was directly transmitted outside through the speaker, and was heard clearly by all the waiting reporters.
In the speaker, Deng Xiaoping said:
"Some people are concerned about the way we will solve the Taiwan issue. Regarding the normalization of Sino-US relations, it is mainly the issue of Taiwan's return to the motherland, but it is because this matter has been resolved that it will be realized. Normalization of relations.
I’m sure you have noticed that we no longer use the term "liberate Taiwan", but renamed "We want to solve the problem of Taiwan's return to the motherland and complete the great cause of reunification."
If there is a return of Taiwan to the motherland One day, we will respect the current reality and Taiwan's existing system."
did not finish speaking, and the broadcast was cut off.
Everyone has heard it, and China no longer uses the phrase "liberate Taiwan".
However, some of the retransmitted words did not actually reflect Deng Xiaoping.
When President Bird of the US Senate and Deng Xiaoping met with Deng Xiaoping, Bird asked: "Does China promise to resolve the Taiwan issue in a peaceful way?" "
Deng Xiaoping replied firmly:
" We refuse to rule out the possibility of using force to solve the problem , but as long as Taiwan returns to the motherland and recognizes one China, we will allow Taiwan's existing system and the current life of Taiwanese people .
The local authorities in Taiwan can maintain the relationship between people and people with foreign countries. We hope to solve this problem peacefully, but China cannot promise not to solve it by other means, because if we make this promise, it will be detrimental to peaceful reunification."
Therefore, Deng Xiaoping has drawn the bottom line on the Taiwan issue.
①The settlement of the Taiwan issue is the prerequisite for to establish diplomatic relations between China and the United States. The United States cannot support Taiwan and cannot station troops in Taiwan.
②The Taiwan system can be discussed Yes, but “one China” cannot be changed.
③If Taiwan seeks independence, it means “resolve by force.”
In the last meeting with President Carter, Deng Xiaoping made a joking warning.
He said that although he hopes to solve the Taiwan issue peacefully, there will be war in two situations:
One is the Soviet invasion of Taiwan;
The other is Taiwan's own independence.
Think about it seriously, will the Soviet Union invade Taiwan?
US Seventh Fleet
On February 5, Deng Xiaoping concluded his visit to the United States, and the two sides signed a number of cooperation agreements.
①Science and technology cooperation agreements and cultural cooperation agreements were signed between the leaders of China and the United States;
②Science port, signed a memorandum of understanding on cooperation in education, agriculture, and space;
③Energy, signed high-energy physics
④Diplomatically, signed an agreement to establish consular relations;
⑤Economically, signed an agreement on trade, aviation and shipping.
Deng Xiaoping took the initiative to mention Taiwan again in an answer to the reporter's question afterwards.
A reporter asked: "China and the United States have normalized relations and signed so many agreements. Have they encountered strong resistance at home?"
Deng Xiaoping replied loudly and loudly: "Of course! In Taiwan, my country, I encountered a lot of resistance!"
The beginning of reform and opening up in the 1980s

Deng Xiaoping’s speech on Taiwan actually enriched the strategy of unifying Taiwan.
Although the United States hopes to maintain the status quo across the Taiwan Strait for a long time, in fact, at that time, there were also favorable conditions for the peaceful reunification of the two sides of the strait.
After Nixon's visit to China in 1972, , Chiang Kai-shek , Chiang Ching-kuo and his sons had to recognize the reality and completely abandoned the dream of "counter-attack on the mainland".
And although Jiang's father and son have a lot of shortcomings,But they are all "reunification factions."
Therefore voluntarily abandon the argument of "liberating Taiwan". From the American perspective, it is a success in exerting pressure. From the Chinese perspective, it is abandoning aggressive verbal statements. This will help to win the Taiwan authorities more easily to accept and complete the third cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. Pave the way.
Especially after the death of Chiang Kai-shek, Chiang Ching-kuo and Deng Xiaoping, who succeeded to the throne, had the friendship of classmates.
When he stayed in the Soviet Union in his early years, Deng Xiaoping was also the leader of the Communist Youth League, and he managed Jiang Jingguo's ideological progress.
And Jiang Jingguo also trusts and admires this "leader" who is not tall and humorous.
Both sides are related.
Therefore, there are many ways to unite the front.
Chiang Kai-shek, Chiang Ching-kuo and his son
In October 1980, Zhejiang took the lead in establishing the Taiwanese Compatriots Association.
In September 1981, Ye Jianying published "Policy on Taiwan's Return to the Motherland and Realization of Peaceful Reunification."
In October 1984, Deng Xiaoping delivered an important speech, formally putting forward the policy of "one country, two systems". He expounded on six principles, focusing on achieving the peaceful reunification of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party on the premise that foreign countries are not allowed to intervene.
In June 1985, Guangxi Film Studio started filming ": The Bloody Battle at Taierzhuang ", which positively promoted the Kuomintang’s contribution to the War of Resistance. When it was shown in Hong Kong, Jiang Jingguo took the initiative to request a copy of the film.
On private channels, Deng Xiaoping also commissioned Liao Chengzhi, the son of the Kuomintang’s important minister and childhood friend of Jiang Jingguo, to maintain active contact with Taiwan.
Jiang Jingguo quickly responded to this.
March 1986,At the Third Plenary Session of the 12th Central Committee of the Kuomintang, Jiang Jingguo said straightforwardly: "There is only one China, and the two sides of the Taiwan Strait must be unified!" (The author clicked 10,000 likes here!)
Then he told the Kuomintang secretary Chang Li Huan said: "We must take the initiative and embark on the road of China's reunification. Taiwan and the mainland must be reunified after all. If the two sides of the strait are not reunified, Taiwan is afraid that it will become increasingly difficult to survive." (here again by the author. 10,000 likes!)
In 1987, the Taiwan authorities announced the lifting of the "martial law" and officially opened Taiwan compatriots to visit relatives on the mainland.
The People’s Daily highly praised this and made a bold promise when reporting: Warmly welcome compatriots in Taiwan, guarantee freedom to come and go, and we will try our best to provide assistance and convenience.
It can be seen that in the late 1980s, with the rise of China's international status and the establishment of cross-strait communication and mutual trust channels, in fact, peaceful reunification and "one country, two systems" have a great chance to be realized.
It is a pity that Jiang Jingguo could not stand it at that time.
The fate of Taiwan, there can be no other choice
Gastrointestinal disease, high blood pressure, neuropathy and other serious illnesses, so that the elderly had to give up power and consider the issue of heirs.
In the second half of 1987, Jiang Jingguo was directly bedridden and basically unable to undertake work.
At the time of his death, Jiang Jingguo selected his successor Lee Teng-hui, and asked him straightforwardly: "What do you think of a China?" policy.
However, lying may seem too easy for some politicians.
As long as you abandon courtesy, justice and shame, what can you say? Treat it as a fart, and let it go. As long as you are not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.
Judging from Lee Teng-hui's performance afterwards, he is definitely not Chinese in blood, nor does he look like a pure-bred Taiwanese, but very much like a Japanese.
Iwali Zhengnan took the class of Chiang Ching-kuo. He could not see the national righteous trend, and he was also confused about the mighty world trend. It must be said that this is a tragedy of the times, and even more a tragedy of Taiwan.
At that time, Deng Xiaoping was also very worried about the possible changes in Taiwan's political situation.
He said: "If our generation cannot solve the Taiwan problem, what should we do. What if the Taiwan authorities never come to negotiate? "
Of course, as a decisive decision The old revolutionary of, he already has the answer in his mind.
As for this answer?
is very simple, with only one word!
