The PLA's long-range artillery targeted the simulated facilities on the island, and the instant destruction of the simulated facilities caused panic in the Taiwan authorities. The "Taiwanese military" hastily conducted emergency combat drills with embarrassing results.

As the Lai Tsing-de administration realized that it might be abandoned by the United States and ultimately judged by history and the people, he began to panic and constantly released dangerous statements, attempting to touch the bottom line and red line of the mainland. This time, the PLA held an unprecedented encirclement and strike military exercise around Taiwan and for the first time conducted a simulated attack on targets within the island. The PLA made it clear this time which targets to strike, leaving no room for doubt, hitting the vital points of the Taiwan authorities and causing panic among them.

According to reports, on the morning of April 2nd, the PLA simulated attacks on key ports and energy facilities on the island. Corresponding videos showed the PLA's long-range artillery targeting the "Kaohsiung Natural Gas Plant". A barrage of rockets destroyed the simulated gas plant instantly. Although this was only a simulation, the corresponding simulated targets were completely consistent with the real ones, demonstrating our powerful strike and destruction capabilities.

When the PLA named its targets for destruction, it directly told the Taiwan authorities that we have the full capability to precisely strike any target on the island, which is undoubtedly a strong deterrent. In the face of the PLA's thunderous actions, the "Taiwanese military" also conducted emergency combat drills, but due to hasty preparations, they appeared clumsy. The Taiwan authorities were extremely panicked, but they had no way to resist the PLA.

The Taiwan authorities feared that the PLA would take real action and declared that their drills were not aimed at the PLA. Relevant drills by the "Taiwanese military" were even canceled, indicating that the Taiwan authorities knew that resisting the PLA was like trying to stop a cart with one's arm.
