Recently, Sino-US relations have continued to deteriorate. The two sides are 'at war' in the South China Sea. The US military has deployed various types of reconnaissance aircraft to reconnaissance in China's waters. The intensity is extremely rare. A retired major general of the Taiwan Army predicted that China and the United States will "inevitably fight" in the South China Sea. The location is Huangyan Island. Some Japanese media disclosed that the Trump administration secretly planned to bomb Huangyan Island and predicted that the US military is likely to act within 3 months.

Japan's "Yomiuri Shimbun" disclosed on 29 July 2020 that Trump secretly discussed a plan to bomb Huangyan Island.

The report said that the news leak came from the White House. Regarding the political, military, and diplomatic crises that may be caused by the bombing of Huangyan Island, the Trump team has conducted a "detailed sand table exercise." They are not afraid of the violent reaction of the CCP and the resulting anti-American wave in China because all this is under the control of the US government. The purpose of the United States is to create marginal opposition through the marginal policy of war in order to obtain the greatest marginal benefits.

According to Phelps Pangur, a White House correspondent for The Washington Post, said, “This news is unequivocal. For this reason, the staff of the Oval Office and the hardliners of the Pentagon have secretly formulated detailed the implementation plan which will be implemented immediately after Trump's order."

Japanese media predict that the US military is very likely to bomb the CCP’s islands and reefs in the South China Sea within three months.

Huangyan Island is an atoll of the Zhongsha Islands in the South China Sea. The island and adjacent waters have been controlled by the CCP since 2012. The CCP and the Philippines had a series of sovereignty issues and conflicts over the sovereignty of Huangyan Island.

The outside world was shocked by the news. However, judging from a series of recent moves by the Trump administration, the rumours are not groundless.


US military aircraft have operated more than 2,000 times in the South China Sea

Since the beginning of this year, Sino-US. relations have fallen sharply. As the trade war worsens, the CCP virus spreads globally, the CCP pushes Hong Kong’s national security law, and the United States and China have recently exchanged consulates, and tensions in the South China Sea have escalated. frequently.

On 29 July 2020, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin revealed that in the first half of this year, US military aircraft had operated more than 2,000 times in the South China Sea.

In mid-July, two U.S. aircraft carrier battle groups conducted exercises in the South China Sea. An unidentified flying object (UFO) with U.S. markings traveled at an altitude of 50,000 feet at a speed of 1,852 kilometers per hour from the Philippines through the provinces of eastern China, north to Russia and Russia. Arctic Circle.

Especially in the past month, the US military has dispatched various types of reconnaissance aircraft to conduct reconnaissance in the South China Sea waters dozens of times, and have repeatedly arrived in the waters of Guangdong, Shanghai, and Fujian for reconnaissance. The high intensity is really rare.

At the same time, the US military also dispatched two aircraft carriers to exercise in the South China Sea. The US Air Force’s more than 60 heavy strategic bombers, including B-2 Ghost, B-52H Stratofortress, B-1B Lancer, etc. The 6 US air force bases are on standby.

The US military seems to have done all the preparations for a large-scale local conflict.

Former major general predicted: China and the US will go to war on Huangyan Island

On 28 July, the Taiwanese Army’s retired major general Beichen predicted in an online political theory program that China and the US will engage in "inevitable war" in the South China Sea, and he speculated that the time of the war is most likely to be the month before the U.S. election, and the location is most likely. It may be the "Huangyan Island" closest to the Philippines.

He believes that Taiwan, the Philippines, and the Chinese Communist Party all call Huangyan Island their territory, so it has become the best place for the US military to start war. As for Taiping Island, which belongs to the Republic of China, the CCP also claims to be part of the territory. Therefore, choosing Taiping Island for war is no different from choosing the Taiwan Strait for war.

According to analysis by mainland military expert Wang Yunfei, the United States issued a statement denying China's sovereign rights and interests in the South China Sea on July 13 and "has established its own legal basis for attacking non-sovereign islands and reefs." And if the US military launches an attack on the South China Sea, it is most likely to choose Huangyan Island.

Taiwan's senior media person Huang Weihan said in a live broadcast that the US presidential election voted on November 3, and China and the United States are currently closing consulates with each other, slowly closing consulates on the periphery, and then may recall ambassadors, and there may be military conflicts.

He analyzed that September is the most dangerous because the US President can start a war, but within 60 days it must be approved by Congress. As long as a military plane collides, President Trump can order troops.

The founder of Citizen Force Yang Jianli also told RFA that the old balance point has been broken between the United States and China, and more conflicts may occur in the coming months, and even local military conflicts in the South China Sea are possible.

Ye Yaoyuan, a professor at the University of St. Thomas, told the Voice of America that the continuing deterioration of US-China relations is far from bottoming. The real bottom is that the United States interrupted diplomatic relations and started war with China.

Some US media said that Trump is self-proclaimed as the "President of War" during the epidemic. He once sniped and killed Iran’s second-ranked figure Qasim Soleimani. The future of the United States and China is like a gunfire or a military conflict. It is impossible, and the situation in the next 100 days is dangerous.

Sun Liping, a professor of sociology at Tsinghua University, said in an article that due to the United States’ advantages in technology, military, and finance, it is entirely possible for the United States to seek a strategy that is not an immediate decisive battle, but to turn it into a protracted war of attrition. The CCP enters into traps designed by itself. In the process, the CCP will be passive at all times and will be hard to deal with.
