Recently, China's first straight-deck electric bomb aircraft carrier, the Fujian, was finally launched. The launch of this aircraft carrier inspired the hearts of countless Chinese people. Because from this moment on, China truly has an aircraft carrier that can compete with the U.S. Navy; from this moment on, the U.S. threat to China in the entire Asia-Pacific region will become smaller and smaller.

The aircraft carrier Fujian was launched

China's maritime power is becoming increasingly powerful, but what we should not forget is the various maritime threats launched by Western powers against us over the past 100 years, from the Opium War to the Sino-Japanese War of 1894, from the Vietnam War In response to the Taiwan Strait crisis, China faced interception from many countries at sea, but in order to safeguard the motherland’s maritime rights and interests, the Chinese people have never backed down.

Although more than twenty years have passed in the new century, this does not mean that we are far away from war. In the past twenty years, we have also passed by unimaginable wars, among which the most serious The first time was six years ago in 2016.

South China Sea sovereignty dispute

This serious incident occurred in the South China Sea in 2016. It can be called the largest military confrontation between the two most powerful countries in the world after the Cold War. If the gun goes off, it will be an inevitable event. Estimated World War.

Regarding this serious military confrontation, it was not that the news media at that time did not release news.

At the end of 2016, the Central Military Channel 7 broadcast an intriguing piece of news:

In July this year, war clouds were gathering in the South China Sea. The Rocket Force and the navy launched joint operations. Our navy was not afraid of powerful enemies and faced the difficulties. Thousands of miles away, a certain base of the Rocket Army received a joint operation order, and dozens of new missiles were ready to go...

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.

In the eyes of people who do not understand military affairs, perhaps this is an ordinary piece of news. But in the eyes of those who understand military affairs, this "exercise" is no small matter, as dozens of new missiles were actually used! Such a scale makes people wonder: What major events happened in the South China Sea at that time?

All this starts with the South China Sea dispute that has lasted for many years.

China Missile Force

The South China Sea has been China's territorial waters since ancient times, and the islands in the South China Seaall belong to China's territory without exception. Proven oil reserves under the sea can reach 12.5 billion barrels, and natural gas reserves can reach 5 trillion cubic meters. The fishery in this sea area accounts for 10% of the world's total.

Such an important area is enough to make many countries salivate.

But unfortunately, since Zheng He's voyages to the West, China has never set foot in the ocean again. Those feudal rulers did not pay attention to the management of the ocean, and even issued an order to move borders and ban the sea. The Chinese nation, which has always been deeply influenced by agricultural civilization, is generally very unfamiliar with the ocean, so much so that it missed the important era of navigation in human history.

Britain, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands ... Those European countries that used to be far behind China have caught up with China by going to the sea. At that time, China was still in a state of confusion, and people had zero awareness of sea power. , it was not until the Opium War was opened by the British in 1840 that the Chinese regretted it.

For more than a hundred years, foreign ships have been cruising around China's territorial waters. Until the founding of New China, our navy was still too weak and did not have sufficient capabilities to govern our territorial waters—especially the South China Sea, which is thousands of miles away.

Since the 1950s, those Southeast Asian countries have taken advantage of the crisis and occupied the islands and reefs in the South China Sea. At the beginning, our country showed a generous attitude, saying that it would jointly develop the South China Sea with Southeast Asian countries.

Wongxing Island in the South China Sea

This attitude did not lead to understanding. On the contrary, they believed that China was weak and could be bullied, and its navy's behavior of invading and occupying China's islands and reefs became even more serious.

But in the past, the Chinese navy was too weak, and there have been constant disputes over sovereignty issues in the South China Sea.

Among these countries, and the Philippines are the most troubled.

In March 1995, The Philippine Navy blew up survey signs on many islands and reefs in the South China Sea, and even sent patrol boats to attack Chinese fishing boats without authorization. Dozens of innocent fishermen were detained;

In April 1997, the Philippine Navy boarded Huangyan Island , blowing up the Monument of Chinese Sovereignty and planting the Philippine flag;

In April 2012, Philippine warships interfered with fishing boats operating normally on Huangyan Island. Chinese fishermen were stripped of their shirts by Philippine soldiers and placed on the deck in the sun. This triggered the confrontation at Scarborough Shoal that lasted for 17 days;

...

The reason why the Philippines dared to challenge China, which was much more powerful than it, was because there were people behind it.

Needless to say, I know who it is.

At this time, Yingjiang will definitely find the right opportunity to jump up and down.

Eagle Sauce

Under the instruction of the United States, major media in Western countries have come out to speak out. They slandered the evidence of China's sovereignty in the South China Sea and fabricated it, and also advocated that the South China Sea should be jointly owned by neighboring countries.

But the Americans also know that it is impossible to bring the Chinese to submission by just relying on the Philippines. The military deployment with the aircraft carrier fleet as the core has long been carried out in secret.

Little did they know that they had always been like this for decades.

As long as the Americans think that your country poses a "threat" to world peace, they will send an aircraft carrier formation to your doorstep. You can understand what it means by yourself. The reason why the United States dares to be so unscrupulous is because people all over the world are anti-war, but they will not be anti-American.

Return to Asia-Pacific and South China Sea Arbitration

In the past two or three decades, the national destiny of the United States has not been smooth. They first fell into a quagmire of war in Afghanistan , and then encountered a financial crisis that made matters worse.

On the contrary, China has developed smoothly since entering the new century, and its international prestige is also increasing day by day. The rise of the Chinese nation has made the United States increasingly feel that it is powerless to deal with the situation in the Asia-Pacific region. They fought with the Soviet Union for decades, and finally disintegrated the Soviet Union. They also struggled with Afghanistan and Iraq for more than 20 years. The United States simply does not have enough energy to care about an increasingly powerful China.

American soldiers in the Iraq War

After Obama came to power, he found that the United States had completely ignored China in the past few decades. Moreover, the then U.S. Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta also proposed that the United States must return to the Asia-Pacific region, otherwise China will become a "big trouble."

This proposal was quickly approved, and the Americans were fully prepared to prevent the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Under the strategic layout of "returning to the Asia-Pacific", the South China Sea issue has become an important entry point for the United States to maintain its hegemony in East Asia and strategically contain China. Since then, strange things have happened one after another in the countries of East Asia.

In September 2012, two bizarre deaths occurred in Tokyo, Japan:

Japanese Finance Minister Tadahiro Matsushita hanged himself at home;

Japan's then ambassador to China Nishimiya Shinichi suddenly fainted near his home and later died.

By coincidence, these two people were the important promoters of the "China-Japan Currency Swap Agreement", and the interval between their consecutive deaths was actually less than a week.

Japanese Ambassador to China Shinichi Nishimiya (right)

The "China-Japan Currency Swap Agreement" is an idea thought up by China and Japan in order to weaken the hegemony of the US dollar in East Asia. This agreement can gradually free the Japanese yen from the control of the US dollar, and also It can lay the foundation for the RMB to go global. More importantly, it can also well expand the influence of the China-Japan-Korea Free Trade Zone established in 2007.

However, US interests will be seriously damaged.

In fact, the various disputes that have broken out between China and Japan in recent decades were actually caused by the United States.

The United States is eager for China and Japan to fall out over various issues, and then it can reap the benefits. If China and Japan bury the hatchet and join forces to fight the United States, the United States will completely lose its power in East Asia.

Therefore, the deaths of Matsushita Tadayo and Nishimiya Shinichi are definitely not accidents!

Sure enough, when their bodies were still cold, three congressmen from Ishigaki City, Okinawa Prefecture, Japan boarded the Diaoyu Islands . A dispute over the Diaoyu Islands broke out between China and Japan. The matter became so heated that Chinese people even organized a rare demonstration. This brought the Sino-Japanese relations, which had already been greatly eased, to an instant freezing point, and the "China-Japan Currency Swap Agreement" had to be abandoned.

uses the Diaoyu Islands as a guise to cause conflicts between China and Japan and maintain hegemony in the Asia-Pacific. Needless to say, the United States is behind all this!

China's Diaoyu Islands

The United States used the Diaoyu Islands to completely disrupt Sino-Japanese relations. China was unwilling to accept it. In 2013, it set its sights on Europe and Arabia and proposed the "One Belt, One Road" policy known as the "Maritime Silk Road."

The United States is completely at odds with China. They have just messed up Sino-Japanese relations, and now they want to mess with the "One Belt, One Road" initiative.

While collaborating with India, which has deep grievances with China over border issues, they are trying to completely mess up the "Belt and Road Initiative" in the Indian Ocean. At the same time, they are instigating the Philippines to frequently stir up trouble for China in the South China Sea and unilaterally hand over the South China Sea issue to " The Hague International Court of Justice Arbitration.

This so-called "International Court of Justice in The Hague" is called the International Court of Justice, but in fact the regulations it promulgates are recognized by less than 70 countries.

Philippine President Benigno Aquino III is not as friendly with China as his mother, Mrs. Aquino, but is willing to serve as a pawn for the American elder brother. With the "support" of his elder brother and the "award" of the South China Sea arbitration, he tried to openly violate China's sovereignty.

The smell of gunpowder in the South China Sea is getting stronger and stronger.

The United States and its allies called for China to accept arbitration, but this discordant voice only lasted for one day. The United Nations issued a statement announcing that the international arbitration tribunal does not belong to the United Nations and that its trials have no legal effect. Moreover, other countries are not without understanding people. Brazilian legal experts have also written articles: supporting China's rights and interests in the South China Sea, criticizing the United States for using territorial issues to create disputes, and thus suppressing China's ambitions.

The South China Sea arbitration case of former Philippine President Aquino III

has constituted an ultra vires trial. There are obvious errors both in fact and in law. This seriously violates the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea and is simply a political farce of wishful thinking by the United States and the Philippines.

This kind of ruling is naturally invalid and is just a piece of waste paper in the eyes of China.

China and the United States Chen Bing in the South China Sea

From 2015 to 2016, until before the arbitration case was announced, the situation in the South China Sea heated up step by step.

In 2015, the United States gave the Philippines US$79 million in military aid with a wave of its hand;

On October 27, 2015, the USS Lassen guided missile destroyer invaded my country's Mischief Reef and Subi Reef 12 nautical miles away to provoke the incident. The prelude to the game between China and the United States in the South China Sea;

On December 10, 2015, a US military B52 bomber broke into a range of 12 nautical miles over Huayang Reef in the South my country Sea. China's game in the South China Sea further escalated;

In March 2016, the Philippines opened 5 doors to the US military. A military base close to the South China Sea paves the way for the U.S. Navy aircraft carrier to invade the South China Sea;

The U.S. Subic Naval Base in the Philippines

In June 2016, there was only one month left before the "arbitration results" were announced;

......

Before the results of the arbitration were announced, the Chinese government made a strong statement: "The arbitration result is nothing special, it is just a piece of waste paper! No one or any country can force China to implement the award!"

China will not relent at all on the South China Sea issue, and the United States and the Philippines are also ready to take action. The two of them hit it off and decided to give China a little "color".

Soon, the Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Navy’s Pacific Fleet, Harry Harris, issued an order: the dual aircraft carrier battle group immediately invaded the South China Sea to severely deter China.

Harris is an American and Japanese general with a tough and arrogant personality. He has participated in many military operations and is the first Asian commander-in-chief of the U.S. Pacific Command.

Among the hawkish officials in the United States, Harris has the most harsh words against China. He has even put pressure on Obama in public on many occasions, declaring that "the U.S. government must give the green light for the fleet to sail freely in the South China Sea.".

The Japanese Commander-in-Chief of the United States in the Pacific——Harry Harris

In early July 2016, Harris personally led two nuclear-powered aircraft carrier battle groups, the "Reagan" and the "Stennis" plus more than ten warships, carrying Ten carrier-based aircraft squadrons with about 150 fighter planes and 12,000 soldiers headed towards the South China Sea in a mighty manner.

The "Reagan" and the "Stennis" are both elite American aircraft carriers. The combat effectiveness of these two aircraft carrier fleets is enough to eliminate the maritime power of any medium-sized country in the world within two days.

Americans do whatever they say, and Harris is not a soft-hearted guy.

The United States has assembled two aircraft carrier formations to prepare for a forcible invasion of the South China Sea. It has two purposes: first, to use this action to test China's bottom line, and to test the waters for the countries surrounding the South China Sea, and to tell them the feasibility of further invading the South China Sea; second, It flexes its muscles in front of Southeast Asian countries and acts as a deterrent to prevent them from being included in China's sphere of influence.

China also knows very well that the United States is simply standing up for its younger brother this time, because there is no need for them to go to war with China over the South China Sea, because the ownership of the South China Sea has almost no impact on the interests of the United States.

But the South China Sea is China’s core interest.

Looking back on 1999, NATO led by the United States brazenly attacked our embassy in Yugoslavia. We tolerated it at that time because we were not strong enough and had no impact on China's development. But China will never tolerate this step in the South China Sea!

The South China Sea is China’s territorial waters, and its surrounding countries are our importers of raw materials and our important business partners. If China gives in to this step in the South China Sea, not only will the "One Belt, One Road" be impossible , and the international status that China’s revolutionary ancestors fought so hard for will be gone.

The most important thing is that China now has the strength to compete with the US Navy.

Then, an order from the Central Military Commission appeared on the desk of the Navy Commander: From 8:00 on July 5, 2016 to 8:00 on July 11, 2016, the Chinese Navy will hold military exercises in the designated waters of the South China Sea.

The commander immediately realized: The fewer words, the bigger the matter.

This time, China has no retreat. It must take the attitude of accomplishing all its efforts in one battle and concentrate its powerful military power to compete head-on with the US military.

In an emergency in the South China Sea, Zhanjiang, Guangdong first sounded the combat readiness alarm, and the South China Sea Fleet immediately entered combat status. But a fleet in the South China Sea alone is not enough to deter the invading U.S. Navy.

Immediately afterwards, the East China Sea Fleet stationed in the Zhoushan Islands in Zhejiang was immediately dispatched to reinforce the South China Sea via the Taiwan Strait ; even the farthest North Sea Fleet also pulled anchor from Qingdao and Dalian and set sail at full speed. Rush southward from the mouth of the Bohai Sea to help.

This time, China is ready to use all its maritime power to defend its territorial waters to the death!

Chinese Navy Fleet

The People's Navy in 2016 was not as powerful as it is now, and there was only one aircraft carrier. However, in order to ensure the safety of the South China Sea, we have displayed all the weapons that can be used to deal with the US military.

The latest 052D guided missile destroyers at that time were all present, plus more than 100 ships such as 052C destroyers, 054A and China’s maritime power is becoming increasingly powerful, but what we should not forget is the various maritime threats that Western powers have launched against us over the past hundred years, from the Opium War to the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War, from counterattacks  - DayDayNews56 frigates , and J-11B, H-6K, and J-12 missiles mounted with Eagle 12 missiles . Dozens of fighter jets, including the H-7, fought against the menacing U.S. aircraft carrier battle group .

Deep in the ocean, Type 093B and Type 094A strategic nuclear submarines have also been deployed, threatening the United States at all times.

The Rocket Force has also joined the battle order. The Dongfeng 21D missile, known as the " aircraft carrier killer ", immediately entered the launch position in the mountains; intercontinental missiles with a range of thousands of kilometers have also targeted the United States.

In this military operation, China has unprecedentedly sent four generals to take command on the front line. The naval commander, at the age of 71, has put on his armor again and is ready to roll up his sleeves and fight with this arrogant guy and .

China has entered the first level of and is preparing for .

When things have developed into this situation, the Chinese government has prepared for the worst. If the US aircraft carrier dares to invade the South China Sea without permission, it will turn the South China Sea into a graveyard for the US fleet, and they will never come back!

If the following thing is used, then the US aircraft carrier will at least be towed home.

The focus of heated discussions in the world's major media is all on the South China Sea sanctions results that will be released on July 12.

The most dangerous moment

On July 12, 2016, the International Court of Justice in The Hague made a "final ruling" on the South China Sea arbitration case. The court declared that the Philippines "won the case" and also declared that China had no "historic ownership" of the South China Sea.

China’s attitude can be summarized in twelve words: no acceptance, no participation, no recognition, and no implementation!

Anyone with a keen sense of smell can tell that something big is going to happen.

In an instant, the governments of China and the United States suddenly fell silent. Reporters from various media outlets who had previously reported extensively on the incident also fell silent. The United Nations also remained silent. Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.

No one knows what will happen next, but they know exactly what will happen next.

The smell of gunpowder in the South China Sea is getting stronger and stronger, but neither the Chinese or American navies dare to act rashly. They have only launched actual military exercises in their respective waters. This is like two boxers warming up before a match, but in this warm-up both sides are very wide, and their fists are almost touching their noses.

Chinese warships and US warships

According to the order of the Central Military Commission, the exercise of the Chinese fleet was chosen to end the day before the arbitration case was announced. If the US military launched an attack on the Chinese fleet at this point in time, it would appear to be too hasty, and the Chinese navy would have a preemptive strike. Opportunity.

At this moment, a piece of news came: The US military aircraft carrier disappeared, and the mainstream media completely lost any source of information!

So someone said: "The US fleet was scared and they ran away!"

But is this really the case?

In fact, on July 5, the first day when the Chinese Navy announced the exercise, the US aircraft carrier was still operating in the waters off Scarborough Shoal. In the following days, the US aircraft carrier quietly turned eastward, leaving the South China Sea and sailing in the ocean east of the Philippines. At the same time, the US military implemented media control and radio silence, and aircraft carrier-based aircraft also reduced the number of takeoffs.

Although the aircraft carrier has a huge body of more than 300 meters, it is extremely difficult to be discovered at sea, because being discovered means being sunk. This is an iron law of modern naval warfare.

The disappearance of the US aircraft carrier shows that they have hidden the coordinates of the aircraft carrier to avoid exposure; no news has been released, which shows that they have initiated wartime news control.

That’s right! The US fleet has entered combat mode!

The most dangerous moment in the South China Sea has finally arrived!

The hearts of the whole world are in their throats, because once China and the United States go to war, everyone knows what it will mean.

It is now the hot summer in China. People are blowing on the air conditioner in the dog days, scrolling through entertainment gossip on their mobile phones, and enjoying delicious barbecue and cold beer. The students at school have already had their summer vacation, enjoying rare free time after intense study.

Relaxing and interesting variety shows are being broadcast on all major online platforms in China. The most popular movie "Big Fish and Begonia" is being shown in the packed cinema. CCTV is repeatedly replaying the excitement of the European Cup . In an instant, even the most authoritative CCTV station went out of its way and played the children's favorite cartoon "Bear Bears".

In short, everything is as ordinary as usual.

Thousands of miles away, the South China Sea is covered with war. The two major military powers, China and the United States, are engaged in an extremely dangerous military confrontation. The scale and tension of the situation are unprecedented since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis.

Veterans are returning to the army from all directions, and all frontline soldiers have written suicide notes.

The four admirals of the Chinese navy are staring at the electronic map, paying close attention to the movements of the US fleet; the US fleet is wandering around the South China Sea, and Harris is like a bad wolf that keeps peeking into people's homes, ready to rush at any time. Get in there and bite.

China's Liaoning aircraft carrier formation

Everyone's hearts jumped into their throats, and both sides were waiting for orders.

The US military fleet is waiting for the order from the White House: Should we invade the South China Sea or not?

The Chinese Navy is waiting for the order from the Central Military Commission: Everything is ready, when will it start?

This is like a tug of war, whoever lets go loses.

At this critical moment, the US fleet commander Harris actually issued an attack order to each ship.

The US military captains all wondered whether their ears had heard wrongly. Do we really want to go to war with China over a small country like the Philippines?

Fortunately, one of the captains was thoughtful and knew very well what kind of person Harris was, so he directly reported to the White House, saying that Harris ordered them to attack the Chinese fleet. Was this what the White House meant?

Immediately, there was a roar from the White House: "Who gave you the order?! Who said they were going to attack the Chinese fleet?!"

It turned out that the attack order just now was actually carried out by Harris. He had no idea at all. Authorized by the White House!

The U.S. military captains suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, what a danger! Fortunately, I had a foresight, otherwise it would have been a disaster. After

, the US fleet is still cruising outside the South China Sea, while the Chinese fleet shows no sign of retreating at all. If the United States wants to test China's attitude, then this attitude is already obvious: it does not want to give up the South China Sea at all, and if it wants to fight, it will fight!

The situation took a turn for the worse

At this moment, a piece of shocking news suddenly reached Harris's ears: A Chinese H-6K bomber was discovered off the coast of the Philippines, and its location was beyond the scope of the Chinese Navy's exercises.

At the same time, the Chinese media, which has been silent for a long time, released a photo of the H-6K cruising Huangyan Island.

Now it is the Americans' turn to be nervous, because their aircraft carrier is nearby.

What the Chinese mean is: The coordinates of the US aircraft carrier have been exposed. If you don't retreat, you will bear the consequences!

This unprecedented tough attitude greatly exceeded everyone's expectations. It turns out that the Chinese navy has already weaved a big net for the Americans. The aircraft carrier is exposed, why not withdraw quickly!

With desperation, the US fleet had no choice but to stay away from the attack range of the Chinese navy and turn around and sail toward the depths of the ocean.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

In this way, the United States’ conspiracy to invade the South China Sea was completely shattered by China’s carefully planned psychological warfare and information warfare strategies.

In this confrontation, there is no doubt that China is the biggest winner. This not only allowed the world to see China's execution ability in responding to crises, but also profoundly affected the world pattern in the next few decades.

The Philippines was completely dumbfounded. You must know that they spent a full 30 million US dollars on the arbitration, and now it is all in vain.

The new President of the Philippines Duterte

On July 14, 2016, the newly elected President of the Philippines Duterte shelved the results of the South China Sea arbitration and said that he would send pro-China former President Ramos to China for a goodwill visit. This is equivalent to leaving the United States aside and handling South China Sea issues amicably with China.

At this time, the Philippines has realized that the United States, the big brother he has always relied on, is not reliable. No matter what promises he has made in advance, as long as he feels that he will suffer a loss, he will immediately put oil on his feet.

After all, this kind of thing is like a boyfriend cheating on you, there are countless times after the first time.

Some people say that if China and the United States really get to that point in the South China Sea, at least the US military will never be able to defeat the People's Liberation Army in the first round of competition. One is because the Chinese Navy is fighting at home after all, and we have used all the weapons to deal with the US aircraft carrier; the other is because the South China Sea is actually a "closed water" within an island chain. As soon as the US aircraft carrier breaks in, we will Block the openings everywhere, and then you can catch them all.

If China and the United States really start a war in the South China Sea, the Chinese navy can use the entire south as a base, and the air force, naval aviation and rocket force will launch attacks on the U.S. navy and air force under the guidance of the Beidou navigation system. China has shown all its assets in this battle. Even though the US military has advantages, it is not overwhelming. Neither side can afford the consequences of a war between the permanent members of the United Nations.

But one thing is certain - the American retreat is inevitable. Because this South China Sea dispute is essentially a political show, if the US fleet fights with China's control of its movements, it will be completely like a sheep in a tiger's mouth.

However, why did Harris order the attack? Was he really out of his mind? His intention is probably to strike first and destroy part of China's naval power in the first wave of attacks, greatly reducing China's ocean combat capabilities and tilting the advantage in the South China Sea issue to the Philippines.

But he only has two aircraft carriers in his hands, so it is obvious that he cannot achieve this goal. China's Dongfeng missiles can counterattack quickly. One Dongfeng 21B can sink or cripple an aircraft carrier, let alone more than a hundred warships of the Chinese Navy. What can the US military do?

Harris wanted to imitate the general who invaded China Ishihara Wanji and disobeyed his superiors, but his orders were also disobeyed by his subordinates. It is not that there are no understanding people in the US Navy.

China’s maritime power is becoming increasingly powerful, but what we should not forget is the various maritime threats that Western powers have launched against us over the past hundred years, from the Opium War to the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War, from counterattacks  - DayDayNews

Having said that, with China’s military strength at the time, it was not completely sure that it would fight the US Navy to the death even in its home territory of the South China Sea. Therefore, the outcome of the war between China and the United States is really hard to say.

Harris’s unauthorized order almost led to a war between China and the United States that neither one could afford.

After the US fleet retreated, it is estimated that both China and the United States hated Harris. After the

incident, Philippine President Aquino III, who deliberately provoked the South China Sea arbitration, was imprisoned for dereliction of duty. The previous two days happened to be his first anniversary; and Harry Harris, who acted recklessly and issued the attack order without authorization Woolen cloth? Anyway, he can no longer be the commander of the fleet. The US government sent him to South Korea as ambassador to South Korea.

As a result, Harris was still uneasy after arriving in South Korea. He even used his Japanese genes to grow a mustache. This provocative move was directly scolded by Korean netizens and became an international hot search.

The military confrontation in the South China Sea in 2016 was like a strong wind blowing on the lake. Although it caused more or less waves, it soon returned to calm. If people who have never seen waves walk by the lake, they would think that nothing happened!

The Chinese people are still living and working in peace and contentment as usual. No one thought that just a few days ago, everyone was on the verge of World War III. It was not until someone later made the incident public insinuatingly on the Internet that everyone knew what happened in the South China Sea at that time.

Later, the first domestically produced aircraft carrier was put into service, the 055 large destroyer was put into service, and then the recent launch of the Fujian ship continued to inspire people... The Chinese Navy is catching up at an extremely fast speed.

There is no doubt that we can definitely wait until the day when the Chinese naval fleet gallops across the vast ocean!

There are no peaceful years, but there are people who carry the burden forward for us.

The ancients said: Be prepared for danger in times of peace.
