On August 13, an American Navy destroyer illegally entered the territorial waters of China's Huangyan Island and was forcefully driven away by the Chinese Navy. On August 7, the US Navy's Higgins destroyer entered the Sulu Sea through the Leyte Gulf waterway, and on August 12, it entered the South China Sea and headed directly for Huangyan Island. From a temporal perspective, this was a sudden decision by the US Navy to provoke at Huangyan Island, supporting the Philippine authorities. A cold fact is that several years ago, we could not even occupy Huangyan Island; the Philippine military had been occupying it for a long time. Now, the Philippine authorities and the Philippine military can no longer control the island. Previously, it was always the Chinese Coast Guard that drove out, with the Chinese Navy standing by. With the interference of external forces in the region, especially the interference of the US Navy, the Chinese Navy has also joined the task of driving away. The US and the Philippines are jointly committing acts of aggression, trying to catch us off guard. After seizing Huangyan Island, we will complete the last point of the South China Sea big triangle. Using this joint provocation incident by the US and the Philippines, we can further control the South China Sea, forming a small and large triangle of the South China Sea islands, choking the throat of the US and the Philippines. This is a wise strategy. The formation of the small and large triangles of the South China Sea into a fortress is truly appealing for us. The US Navy's Higgins destroyer "spontaneously" deciding to act shows the strong power logic of the powerful country, who only plays in favorable conditions. The so-called "freedom of navigation" of the United States is severely constrained by the communication mechanism between the Chinese and American militaries. If the United States is really confident, it should cancel the communication mechanism and imitate the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force's Asagiri destroyer, directly entering the Chinese territorial waters, even the territorial waters of Huangyan Island, and see whether China will treat the US Navy warship the same way as it treated the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force's Asagiri destroyer (two cannon shots scared the captain of the Asagiri destroyer). As a pure colony of the United States, the Philippines is clearly within the first island chain of the US. Now, the PLA ships are so close to Manila that the US military should be clear that if a war breaks out, the shells from the Chinese Navy warships will definitely sink all the Philippine Navy, Philippine Coast Guard, and US Navy vessels, patrol ships in the ports of the Philippines!
