Following McCaul, chairman of the House of Representatives, visited Taiwan, a number of US arms dealers also visited Taiwan, bringing new hope to the Taiwan military and emboldening them to "seek independence by force." However, the mainland's reaction made everyone understand: the United States and Taiwan are happy too early!
This time it is a group of 27 U.S. arms dealers, including many U.S. arms dealers who have been sanctioned by China for their frequent arms exchanges with Taiwan.
McCaul promised to ship weapons and equipment to Taiwan as soon as possible, and arms dealers appeared in Taiwan on the back foot, just to discuss with the Taiwan authorities what weapons and equipment should be transported and how to transport them.
When these weapons and equipment are transported to Taiwan, the overall combat strength of the Taiwan military will be qualitatively enhanced, and it will be able to better realize the goal of "seeking independence by force."
However, the mainland has long been prepared for this, and has set up a pocket array at the sea and air at the same time. None of these weapons from US arms dealers are trying to be shipped into Taiwan. As long as we dare to enter the Taiwan Strait, we will confiscate one of them, and truly realize that "not a single bullet can be transported to Taiwan", and at the same time, these American-made weapons and equipment will not want to return to the United States!
The United States wants to send advanced weapons and equipment to Taiwan, and the Chinese side is ready
During McCaul's visit to Taiwan, he made it clear that the weapons and equipment that had not been delivered for a long time would be cashed in in the near future and shipped to Taiwan as soon as possible, including Patriot-3 air defense missiles, F-16V fighters, "Harpoons," "Stingers," and AGM-888 anti-radiation missiles.
The United States is suddenly in a hurry, which is related to the "Joint Sword-2024A" launched by the People's Liberation Army at the end of last month. The suddenness and intensity of this exercise have given the United States and Taiwan a serious sense of crisis, for fear that one day they will wake up and Taiwan will be reunified. Once Taiwan is reunified, the United States will lose its best trump card to contain China. Therefore, the United States has recently become particularly active in cashing in all the weapons and equipment that have not been fulfilled before.
According to McCaul's meaning, the weapons and equipment that the United States will ship to Taiwan next will be different from the previous ones, and in the past, the United States will give the Taiwan military some obsolete copper and iron, which is not a cause for trouble. Obviously, the United States does not intend to perfunctory Taiwan this time, because they know that once it continues to be perfunctory, the combat effectiveness of the Taiwan military will not be improved for a long time, and in the end it will only be reunified.
However, the United States has been sanctioned by China for interfering in the Taiwan issue and frequently selling arms to Taiwan, restricting the export of many military materials, and the latter foot has come to militarily package the Taiwan military.
Although the United States is not affected by China's sanctions, this does not mean that China is helpless against them. If the United States chooses to commit crimes against the wind, it will inevitably bear the corresponding price.
As for the Taiwan military, it is naïve to think that with these weapons and equipment from US arms dealers, it will have the strength to compete with the PLA, but in fact it is nothing more than a clown jumping off the beam. At the same time, the Chinese side will not allow the United States to transport these weapons and equipment into Taiwan, so it has long set up a pocket formation in the Taiwan Strait, waiting for the US military to throw itself into the net.
China's coast guard and navy have completely "blockaded" Taiwan, and there will be no return for the weapons and equipment shipped by the United States
The "Joint Sword-2024A" military exercise launched in the Eastern Theater not only demonstrated the PLA's determination and action to take over Taiwan, but also demonstrated that our military has absolute air supremacy, sea supremacy, and electromagnetic supremacy in the Taiwan Strait.
The United States wants to transport weapons and equipment to Taiwan, not only by air but also by sea. Just as demonstrated in the military exercise, the Continental Army planes have surrounded the airspace over the Taiwan Strait layer by layer, and the US transport planes want to transport things to Taiwan from the air, which is simply a fool's dream.
And because air transport aircraft have strict requirements for load, in addition to ammunition, air transport can carry some light equipment, which is not to be feared by the PLA.
The real thing you need to guard against is sea transportation, but you don't have to worry about that either. When the PLA conducted exercises in the Taiwan Strait, it not only tested its actual combat capability, but also tested its interception capability at sea.
In addition to the People's Liberation Army, the mainland coast guard has also carried out relevant exercises in the waters east of Taiwan since May 24. The main content of the exercise was boarding and inspecting the ship and various interception methods, which was obviously aimed at inspecting and intercepting the weapons and equipment transported by the US side to Taiwan.
Recently, the China Coast Guard issued an announcement saying that it will strengthen patrols and security inspections around Taiwan, especially in the waters east of Taiwan.
In other words, the China Coast Guard will step up inspections of the waters around Taiwan to ensure that not a single bullet from the United States can be transported to Taiwan.
Of course, considering that the coast guard's water cannons are not very powerful, the Chinese side announced that when faced with "contraband", the Chinese coast guard must "confiscate" them in accordance with the law, and absolutely must not allow them to enter Taiwan. If the other side does not listen, the Chinese coast guard has the right to warn with high-pressure water cannons. If you still don't listen, you can use the ship's fire weapons.
What is obvious is that China will completely "blockade" Taiwan and will absolutely not allow the US conspiracy to support the Taiwan military to succeed. As for the weapons and equipment shipped, they will all be confiscated by the Chinese side, and the final outcome of these weapons and equipment will most likely become "specimens" to be studied by our side. In short, if the United States dares to bring weapons and equipment, we have the ability to make these weapons and equipment come and go.
However, the new hope that the Taiwan military and the Taiwan authorities have in their hearts and minds is definitely gone. It is hoped that the Taiwan authorities will understand that "seeking independence by force" will not come to a good end, and that an obedient return is the best policy.
