东部战区多军种多方向成体系出动兵力，在台湾海峡及南北两端连续组织实战化演练

东部战区新闻发言人张春晖空军大校称，近日，中国人民解放军东部战区多军种多方向成体系出动兵力，在台湾海峡及南北两端连续组织实战化演练，进一步检验提升多军种联合作战能力。

近来，个别大国在涉台问题上消极动向不断，向“台独”势力发出严重错误信号，严重威胁台海地区和平与稳定。台湾是中国领土神圣不可分割的一部分，战区部队组织的巡逻和训练活动，是针对当前台海安全形势和维护国家主权需要采取的必要行动。战区部队将时刻保持高度戒备，采取一切必要措施，坚决回击一切制造“台独”、分裂国家的挑衅行为，坚决捍卫国家主权和领土完整。

I called it already last week:

The American health secretary Alex Azar will visit Taiwan this month. China will conduct massive dual aircraft carrier battlegroup exercises on the eastern coast of Taiwan in response.

It looks like USA is about to establish diplomatic relations with Taiwan very soon. Probably before the November election. Secretary of State Pompeo will go to Taiwan to establish diplomatic relations. Then China will launch air and missile strikes directly on Taiwan targets.

List of China's enemies and their spanking:

Xinjiang separatists -- defeated in 2017 using reeducation camps

Hong Kong separatists -- defeated in 2020 using mass arrests

Taiwan separatists -- to be defeated in late 2020 using air and missile strikes

Philippines -- defeated in 2020 after Scarborough Shoal navy exercises

Vietnam -- defeated in 2020 after oil companies abandoned exploration

Malaysia -- defeated in 2020 after oil companies abandoned exploration

India -- defeated in 2020 after Galway Valley clash

USA -- mortally wounded by coronavirus, dollar hegemony weakened in 2020

The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Eastern Theater Command recently systematically sent troops from multiple military branches into multiple directions and organized consecutive, realistic drills in the Taiwan Straits and its northern and southern ends, the command announced on Thursday.

The drills further tested and improved the troops' joint combat capability, said Senior Colonel Zhang Chunhui, the spokesperson of the PLA Eastern Theater Command.

Recently, "a certain major country" has been continuously making negative moves on the Taiwan question, which has sent seriously wrong signals to "Taiwan independence" forces and severely threatened peace and stability across the Taiwan Straits, Zhang said.

Taiwan is a sacred and inalienable part of Chinese territory, and the patrol and exercise activities by the PLA are necessary operations aimed at the current security situation in the region and safeguarding national sovereignty, the spokesperson stressed.

The troops will always be on high alert, take any necessary measures, resolutely counter any provocative actions that could result in "Taiwan independence" and separate the country, and resolutely safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity, Zhang said.

Taiwanese president signals stronger security ties with US to counter Beijing

• Tsai Ing-wen says island will seek a ‘constructive security relationship’ with the US
• Tsai calls on Beijing to recognise Taiwan as a self-governing, fully functional democracy

Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen has stressed the need for “like-minded democracies” such as the United States to help safeguard the island’s security as she urged Beijing to recognise Taiwan as a self-governed democracy.

In a virtual address to the Washington-based Hudson Institute on Wednesday, Tsai said the top priority for her second term was to bolster the island’s military defences, including seeking a “constructive security relationship” with the US.

“Our 23 million people have the right to determine our own futures, which is [the] antithesis to the position Beijing has taken,” she said. “Upholding these principles requires us to be able to defend Taiwan against coercive actions. It entails backing up words with actions.”

The US has to realise once the first Chinese bullet is fired on Taiwan, that island will have to get used to daily or regular Chinese bombardment until the Taiwanese surrender.

So, what will the US do? What or where is US going to bombard? It'll be pointless sending anything to Taiwan as Taiwan will never be the same, just a shooting practice ground for the PLA until it surrenders.

Once the shooting starts, the US will lose all and any influence, interaction it has with Taiwan for good.

It's the exactly the same situation as Hong Kong. Both Taiwan and Hong Kong benefited greatly from China's economic growth in the past 40 years. Instead of being grateful, they feel like they are superior. This feeling is manipulated by local elites, who are themselves bought out and controlled by foreign powers especially by the United States. The Hong Kong elites comes from pre-1997 colonialism and Taiwan elites come from post-1949 civil war split.

Eventually the local elites tell the masses of stupid Hong Kong and Taiwanese that they are superior because of "democracy and freedom" and send them on a collision course of geopolitical confrontation with China to prove their sense of superiority. Eventually, Beijing tires of the game and reduces the Hong Kong / Taiwan to rubble in retaliation. Hong Kong is pretty much in a state of managed chaos after Beijing started mass arrests. Taiwan will be the same after air and missile strikes. The long term end result will be Hong Kong and Taiwan will become as poor as they were in the 1970s to take away the sense of entitlement.

Tibet, Xinjiang, Hong Kong, obviously Taiwan is next!

 

[Easy When]

Yes sooner the better as the current situation is only increasing tensions and more weapons are flooding in to Taiwan courtesy of Uncle Sam. Taiwan could be invaded under the guise it was about to acquire Nuclear weapons from the US.

PLA’s ‘unprecedented drills’ in Taiwan Straits for deterrence, actual combat: observers

https://www.globaltimes.cn/content/1197716.shtml

The Chinese mainland openly warned Taiwan secessionists by conducting massive military drills in the Taiwan Straits on Thursday. Chinese experts said this is a clear and unprecedented deterrence toward secessionists of the island as well as the US, as the Trump administration has increased its links with the Taiwan secessionist authority, and the possibility of peaceful reunification is decreasing sharply.

Analysts on Taiwan affairs and national defense from the mainland said the drills are not just to deter the provocative and dangerous connections between the island and the US, but also to train the forces for massive military operations. If the Taiwan secessionists and the US cross the bottom line set by the mainland's Anti-Secession Law, the mainland needs to take actions to solve the problem immediately.

The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Eastern Theater Command recently sent troops from multiple military branches and organized consecutive, realistic drills in the Taiwan Straits and its northern and southern ends, the command said on Thursday.

The drills further tested and improved the PLA troops' joint combat capability, said Senior Colonel Zhang Chunhui, spokesperson of the PLA Eastern Theater Command.

Recently, "a certain major power" has been continuously making negative moves on the Taiwan question, which has sent seriously wrong signals to "Taiwan independence" forces, and severely threatened the peace and stability across the Taiwan Straits, he said.

The mainland experts said the drills are a resolute response to the US and Taiwan secessionists. The PLA seldom makes public the aim of its exercises, and by announcing the aim this time being "a certain major power," which almost directly points at the United States and "Taiwan independence" forces, it is sending a very clear, direct and strong warning to the US and Taiwan secessionists.

According to the spokesperson's statement, the drills covered large areas of the Taiwan Straits, and featured many military branches in a joint operation. This means the drills must be of a large scale and could have involved warplanes, warships, amphibious troops, artillery and missiles, observers noted.

A Chinese mainland military expert told the Global Times on Thursday on condition of anonymity that the drills showed the PLA can launch attacks on Taiwan secessionists from any direction of the Taiwan Straits. And unlike some predictions from the US and the island that the PLA will only concentrate on striking a few key strategic locations on the island, if and when the operation is launched, all places in the region will become battlefields.

Chinese mainland military expert Song Zhongping told the Global Times on Thursday that the most important task for the drill is to enhance and normalize military drills around the island of Taiwan.

The PLA drills are not staged only to deter the secessionists on the island, but to train the troops and gain the capability to turn the exercises into real military actions when necessary, Song said.

Xu Guangyu, a senior adviser to the China Arms Control and Disarmament Association, told the Global Times on Monday that if the US and Taiwan secessionists go further, the PLA could take more countermeasures, including live-fire missile drills east of Taiwan island and near Guam. Some Chinese mainland military observers also suggested the PLA can send warplanes through the airspace of the island.

'First battle, last battle'

The Taiwan separatist authority is still adding its defense budget for next year, but observers said the overwhelming military advantage of the PLA is unshakeable, and increasing the island's defense budget would only waist taxpayers' money and make Taiwan a "cash machine" for the US defense industry, as well as arms dealers or lobby groups in Taipei and Washington.

Taiwan media reported that Taiwan's defense spending next year is set to rise 10.2 percent compared to this year. The regional leader of the island Tsai Ing-wen's cabinet on Thursday proposed NT$453.4 billion ($15.42 billion) in military spending for the year starting in January 2021, versus 411.3 billion for 2020, the island authority said in a statement.

Zhao Lijian, spokesperson of the Chinese Foreign Ministry, said at a routine press conference on Thursday that the island is "a tiny region," and no matter how much money the separatist authority would spend for defense against the reunification with the mainland, it would be ridiculous, just like "ants trying to shake a big tree."

Former leader of Taiwan region Ma Ying-jeou Ma Ying-jeou said on Mondayat a speech that if the Chinese mainland decides to reunify the island by force, "the first battle is the last battle," and the US military will not come to the island's rescue, and that there won't be time for the US to come either, Taiwan media reported.

Ma's statement reflects the mainland's and island's comprehensive military strengths, as the PLA can destroy almost all of Taiwan's forces without letting them leave the ground or harbor in just the first battle, Song said, noting that this will leave no time for the US military to help the Taiwan secessionists. And even the US military does come, it will suffer asymmetrical disadvantages, which favor the PLA near the Chinese mainland's coastal waters.

A Beijing-based Taiwan affairs expert who requested anonymity told the Global Times that many secessionists on the island are trying to downplay the mainland's determination to reunify the island, as they believe the military deterrence from the mainland has existed for decades. They said the mainland dares not take real action, and "with worsening China-US ties, many of them doubt that the mainland would attack, and even believe the US will let American soldiers fight and die for Taiwan separatism."

That's why the Taiwan authority is getting more and more hostile to not only the mainland government but also the mainland people, and so the PLA needs to make new moves to increase the deterrence to make the warning effective; otherwise, the consequences would be serious, he noted.

"Ma is also a senior member and former chairman of the Kuomintang (KMT), so he and the KMT are worried that Tsai and the separatist Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authority would underestimate the mainland's determination. But the DPP is unlikely to listen to him," the expert said.

During US Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar's Taiwan visit from Sunday to Wednesday, the USS Ronald Reagan aircraft carrier was lurking near the island of Taiwan, according to publicly available reports. Experts said the US aircraft carrier's movement did not affect the PLA's drills at all, and any country who dares to touch China's territory will meet military strikes.

The island of Taiwan is reportedly in discussions with the US over the purchase of cruise missiles and sea mines, and claimed they will potentially be deployed as coastal defense and amphibious landing deterrence. The intention to purchase these weapons only emphasized Taiwan's outdated war concepts and military technologies, and their potential deployment can be easily countered by the PLA, Chinese mainland experts said on Thursday.

China announces five escalation steps to Taiwan attack!

https://baijiahao.baidu.com/s?id=1674902783438456833&wfr=spider&for=pc

解放军可以继续施加的军事压力还有很多，包括军机绕岛飞行，过“海峡中线”，直至飞越台湾岛上空，弹道导弹试射飞越台湾岛上空，以及在台湾东部海域开展军事演习等等，直到台湾被战争随时可能爆发的危急气氛完全笼罩。

要一个和平发展的台湾，还是要一个两岸严重军事对峙、直到最后战争只差一个火星子就可能点燃的台湾，这要由台当局做出选择。过去是台海演习，今天是台海加南北两端演习，明天台湾再往前走，就是海峡加两端加台湾岛东部的环岛大演习，再接下来是解放军战机出现在台岛上空的演习，局势走到哪一步，球在台当局一边。

东部战区的这次演习显示，解放军有能力从台海的各个方向发起总攻，这是短时间、以小时计拿下台湾岛的战略态势。民进党当局需要保持最后的理性，他们要知道，做美国战略的棋子，是最容易被“吃掉”的。当他们忘乎所以的时候，那一天有可能突然到来。悠着点吧。

Step 0 (today): north south Taiwan straits multi-direction live fire exercises.

Step 1: east coast of Taiwan multi-direction live fire exercises.

Step 2: multi-direction live fire exercises and ballistic missile crossing Taiwan airspace.

Step 3: multi-direction live fire exercises and PLAAF fighter jets crossing Taiwan airspace.

Step 4: amphibious attack on Taiwan and occupation with hours.

I expect we will see the remaining 4 steps before end of 2020.

Chinese H-6J bomber's S. China Sea deployment 'to suppress US provocations'

https://www.globaltimes.cn/content/1197697.shtml

The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy's newly revealed bomber, the H-6J, was recently deployed on Yongxing Island in the South China Sea for the first time, foreign media reported on Wednesday. The move will enable the PLA to suppress and jam provocative US military activities in the region, and its weapons load, potentially including anti-ship ballistic missiles, provides a huge deterrence to US aircraft carriers, experts said on Thursday.

At least one H-6J bomber was seen landed on Yongxing Island in an undated photo on foreign social media, US news outlet the Drive reported on Wednesday.

If confirmed, this will be the first time the bomber has been deployed on the island, the report said.

The H-6J bomber is one of China's latest weapons, and was revealed only in July.

During July's routine press conference by China's Ministry of National Defense, spokesperson Senior Colonel Ren Guoqiang announced that H-6J bombers, together with its predecessors, H-6Gs, recently conducted intensive round-the-clock drills in the South China Sea, completing training exercises, including takeoffs and landings, long-distance strikes and attacks on surface targets.

Beijing-based naval expert Li Jie told the Global Times on Thursday that the H-6J bomber's deployment in the South China Sea is of significance in terms of suppressing the US' military provocations in the region, thanks to its outstanding naval combat capabilities.

High definition photos of the H-6J bomber, which were not taken on Yongxing Island, were revealed by media affiliated with the Chinese military in the past week.

Judging from the photos, the bomber is likely equipped with the new air-to-surface search radar on its nose, and has one extra electronic warfare pod on each side of its wings, Li said, noting that this will allow the H-6J to suppress and jam enemy planes and ships which operate electronic radar and communication devices.

Another distinctive feature of the H-6J bomber is its large weapons load against maritime targets, as it can carry six missiles under its wings, and potentially one more in its belly, Li said.

In addition to anti-ship cruise missiles like the YJ-12, the bomber can potentially also carry anti-ship ballistic missiles, Li predicted.

At Airshow China 2018 in Zhuhai, South China's Guangdong Province, China revealed the made-for-export CM-401 anti-ship ballistic missile, which can be launched into a near-space trajectory, and is capable of hypersonic maneuverable flight. Upon reaching above its target, the CM-401 can conduct a terminal diving attack at extremely high velocity on medium to large vessels, vessel formations and port targets, according to a description at the air show.

This kind of missile could be a viable option for the H-6J, and the bomber, particularly flying in groups, can become a huge threat to hostile aircraft carrier groups, Li said.

The US military has been stirring up trouble in the region with dual aircraft carrier exercises in July, and frequent close-up reconnaissance with large reconnaissance aircraft on South China's coastal regions from the South China Sea in the past few months.

An H-6K bomber, the H-6J's Air Force counterpart, conducted takeoff and landing training on Yongxing Island in 2018, media reported at that time.
