Foreign media热议China's near-perfect performance in both ends of missile offense and defense, and the Taiwan independence forces are under great pressure.
The excellent performance of China's missile offense and defense capabilities has been widely hyped by foreign media. Tsai Ing-wen realized that the PLA's "decapitation" operation is almost impossible to prevent, while Taiwan's National Security Bureau's focus on preventing decapitation measures is still "low-end," as they are only researching how to deal with "close-range decapitation," with no response strategies for "long-range precise elimination." The White House and Pentagon of the United States were "shocked" by China's missile attack and anti-missile capabilities, almost dropping their jaws. Tsai Ing-wen's "political mentor" also urged him to adopt a "risk-avoidance" strategy instead of blindly advocating for a "democratic alliance." In other words, under the situation where China's strength is approaching that of the United States, the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), which relies on the U.S., may face betrayal and abandonment by the U.S.
Recently, three hotly discussed pieces of news, despite appearing to have different sources, all involve China's superlative missile technology, demonstrating nearly perfect performance in both offensive and defensive aspects. Today, Colonel Zhang Xiaogang, spokesperson for China's Ministry of National Defense, particularly responded to one of these pieces of news, which will likely make high-ranking officials at the Pentagon and "Taiwan independence" elements sweat coldly. So, what are the three pieces of news?
First piece of news, about China's missile attack capability. Heather Hegseth from the U.S. Department of Defense stated that China is building a specialized force aimed at destroying the U.S. military. China's hypersonic missiles can destroy all of America's aircraft carriers within 20 minutes, and every war simulation conducted by the Pentagon ends in defeat against China.
What to do? On April 23rd, Hegseth proposed the concept of "joint deterrence," meaning hoping to deter China together with allies. He expressed that the U.S. is promoting more forward military deployment in the Indo-Pacific region to deter China, calling on allies to strengthen their own combat capabilities. He specifically mentioned the Taiwan authorities, hoping regional partners could become a "multiplier factor" for American power.
Regarding Hegseth's statement about "China can destroy all of America's aircraft carriers," spokesperson Zhang Xiaogang made a response on April 24th, with three main points: first, this is the U.S. hyping up so-called "Chinese military threats," but China's military development is defensive in nature; second, China adheres to the stance of "no conflict, no confrontation, peaceful coexistence"; third, it is hoped that the U.S. does not suffer from persecution paranoia.
However, Zhang Xiaogang did not directly address whether China's hypersonic missiles can destroy all of America's aircraft carriers within 20 minutes, neither affirming nor denying it. In other words, believers and non-believers will continue to believe as they always have. To some extent, this is also a form of deterrence.
Second piece of news, about China's extraordinary anti-missile technology. Recently, the U.S. "Popular Mechanics" website and Hong Kong's "South China Morning Post" simultaneously reported that China conducted a live-fire simulation targeting "high-density ballistic missile attacks," testing a new anti-ballistic missile system. What was the result? —— Facing simultaneous attacks from 16 ballistic missiles, China successfully intercepted all of them, achieving an accuracy rate of 100% during the identification, locking, and prioritization process.
If true, this is not only a significant breakthrough in China's strategic defense capabilities but also directly shattered the myth of the American anti-missile system, laying down an important milestone for China's new generation of "strategic shields," once again demonstrating how China uses its strength to defend world peace and safeguard national security in complex international situations.
Third piece of news, about how Tsai Ing-wen "prevents decapitation." Huang Mingzhao, deputy director of Taiwan's National Security Bureau, revealed when questioned in the Legislative Yuan on April 23rd that in order to "prevent decapitation," bodyguards protecting Tsai Ing-wen undergo lie detector tests every six months to ensure their loyalty; more crucially, Huang Mingzhao believes that according to intelligence information collected by Taiwan's National Security system, if the mainland launches a "decapitation action," it should be through an "inside man" method, meaning "close-range decapitation."
From Huang Mingzhao's response, it can be seen how low Taiwan's National Security Bureau's decapitation prevention system is, which is why it has sparked ridicule among Taiwanese netizens. What era is this? With the PLA's strength, and with the mainland's BeiDou satellite positioning system and missile technology, "long-range surgical-style precise decapitation" and drone定点clearances are more than sufficient. A Taiwanese commentator openly said that just look at how Israel launches long-range precise decapitations to know that the PLA's "decapitation" technology will only be stronger.
The above three hotly discussed news items all involve mainland missile technology, and both offensive and defensive aspects. In fact, regarding our missile technology, often we say nothing, but outside reports are沸沸扬扬.
Analyzing Western media opinions, they basically believe that China has formed a strong "anti-access/area denial" capability through anti-ship ballistic missiles and hypersonic weapons, forcing U.S. aircraft carriers away from China's near seas. Some military analysts believe that multiple DF series missiles possess the ability to strike moving aircraft carriers, especially the penetration capability of hypersonic missiles may break through the U.S. "Aegis" system.
Russian media believes that China's military modernization has significantly narrowed the gap with the U.S., especially gaining an advantage in near-sea defense. The U.S. "Forbes" and other media warn that China's "anti-access/area denial" strategy might push U.S. aircraft carriers out of the "first island chain."
Particularly, China's "anti-access/area denial" is simultaneously built on a "multi-platform collaborative combat system," including satellite and reconnaissance networks, aerial and underwater立体strike networks, etc.
Now, China's anti-missile system has achieved a major breakthrough, making our deterrent power even stronger. Especially on the Taiwan issue, "anti-access/area denial" capability is crucial. This is also the confidence behind our saying that the inevitable reunification across the strait and that "Taiwan independence" is a dead end. The DPP authorities' reliance on the U.S. for independence will inevitably backfire.
These three pieces of news have also attracted great attention in Taiwan. Even Tsai Ing-wen's "political mentor," former Straits Exchange Foundation Chairman Hung Chi-chang, published an article today, urging Tsai Ing-wen to stop being one-sided in pursuing the so-called "democratic alliance" perception and actively establish a "risk avoidance strategy and resilience" for Taiwan's development. In other words, under the rapid growth of the mainland's strength, the U.S.'s support for Taiwan is powerless, and Taiwan will eventually face the issue of unification negotiations across the strait.
