The Tibetan Plateau is a good place, but at the same time, it is also a focal point for us and India. As we all know, on the border issue, India has always been unable to get along with us, although since the Yuan Dynasty, we have the sovereignty of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, but India is very unrecognizable to this, and has to take the so-called Tibet-India treaty left by the British colonial era to force us to cede to them the land south of the McMahon Line, which does not exist on the map, where can we endure, after the founding of New China, we will not easily give up any inch of land, even in some barren land on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, this is the assets left to us by our ancestors, and we cannot give him to India。

In order to ease relations with India, we have negotiated with India several times since the 50s of the last century, and we have shown good faith. However, India insisted on going its own way, believing that with the advanced weapons left by the British and the covert support of the United States and the Soviet Union, it could successfully defeat us on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, especially after the end of the Goa War in 1961, when India easily defeated the old imperialist Portugal with the strength of a developing country. This allowed India to obtain Goa land, but also made Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru overestimate his own strength, a little fluttering. The attacks on the Tibetan region of the mainland are becoming more and more intense.

At that time, the Indian government even demanded that we withdraw all our troops on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to Chengdu, so that the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau could be surrendered to each other, so that there would be room for peace with us. This is simply bullying us home, and millions of square kilometers of land are handed over to others, and who can endure and dare to be this sinner of the ages? So in 1962, when the United States and the Soviet Union were unable to come to India's aid because of the Cuban Missile Crisis, the war of self-defense and counterattack we prepared against India began. The Indian army claimed to be invincible, but tens of thousands of people were defeated by tens of thousands of our border guards, and a border self-defense counterattack almost turned into a battle to defend the Indian capital. If it weren't for the sudden change in the international situation, the entire Ganges Plain would probably have been taken by us, and there would be no room for India to go wild now.

After that battle, India exercised great restraint on its borders, and for decades it did not dare to start a large-scale war, despite the skirmishes. This trend continued into the 21st century, when India felt like it was hugging its thighs as the United States began to pivot into the Asia-Pacific region. India thought to itself, of course, that it is no match for China, but with the addition of an American, even if it is as powerful as the Chinese Army, it should tremble, right? The two old foxes hit it off, and the United States made things happen along our southeast coast and set off a storm in the East and South China Seas. India, on the other hand, seized the time to infiltrate our southwestern border. This time, India has learned its lesson and is no longer fighting alone, but wants to draw Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and other countries between India and China to stand in India's camp.

And of course, we can't show weakness, since India is doing things on our borders, we can't let India get better, he is forming a gang on our borders, and we will go to his backyard to develop friends. The essence of guerrilla warfare is to pull the battle line into the enemy's backyard.

It just so happens that some countries in India's backyard have also suffered from India for a long time. India is an ambitious country, and although India's comprehensive strength has not yet risen, they have always regarded themselves as Asia's little overlords. The Indian Ocean is big enough, nearly 70 million square kilometers, the Indian Navy regards this place as its own back garden, there is a big mountain that I opened, this road is planted by me, no matter who passes through the Indian Ocean, it has to report to India, the Indian Ocean is almost too big to fit India. And some small countries around the Indian Ocean, of course, are regarded by India as their vassal states.

Sri Lanka is one of them.

Sri Lanka, known as Ceylon in ancient times, Sri Lanka and India belonged to two independent systems in the British colonial era, both sides had their own independent flags, so India never really ruled Sri Lanka in history, but Sri Lanka's geographical location is very important, he held the throat of the Indian Ocean, when Zheng He went to the Western Ocean, Sri Lanka was regarded as his own supply place. India is only a dozen nautical miles from Sri Lanka, and it can be said that if anyone controls Sri Lanka, it means that he can blockade all military ports along India's entire eastern coastline. Such an important place, India, of course, will not put it in someone else's pocket. In recent years, Sri Lanka has been threatened and lured by India, and there is no way to be independent, not only that, India also instigated the Tamils in Sri Lanka to start a civil war in the last century, a civil war lasted for decades, Sri Lanka's economy was seriously damaged, and the once rich treasure island has now become the world's first sovereign bankrupt country, and all this is due to India's so-called credit.

Sri Lanka has long been extremely disgusted with India, so when we launched the Belt and Road Economic Belt, Sri Lanka consciously joined this economic plan without our reminder, the purpose of which is to introduce Chinese influence and get rid of India's control

However, India is obviously not very happy with the rebellion in Sri Lanka, and in the eyes of the Indians, what you and mine, it is all mine. Since Sri Lanka does not listen to India's command, it is a proper rebellion. What's more, Sri Lanka has chosen to conduct economic and trade exchanges with India's imaginary enemy China this time, which has touched India's backlash even more, and always wants to make some stumbling blocks for us.

No, when our research ship docked at the port of Sri Lanka, India immediately became red again, and Indian officials immediately flew to Colombo, the capital of Sri Lanka, to educate Sri Lanka about what it said. We don't know the specifics, but immediately after the talks, Sri Lanka issued a statement that no Chinese research ships would be allowed to stop at Sri Lankan ports under any name within one year.

This statement is intriguing, in fact, our scientific research ship docked in Sri Lanka, which has no impact on Sri Lanka itself, and Sri Lanka has always had a reason for refusing to save our face, and since this reason is not his own reason, then there is only one possibility, that is, India does not allow him to do so.

This news can only make us angry and funny. Our cooperation with Sri Lanka has been going on for many years, and the research vessels have stopped here dozens of times. Almost every time we call to India, we have to stand up and make some trouble, for example, in 2020, India slandered our research ship and collected secrets of the Indian Navy in Sri Lankan ports, and that's it.

But in 2022, India actually slandered our research ship for stealing India's advanced ballistic missile technology in Sri Lanka. As far as India's ballistic missile technology is concerned, it is well-known for its ballistic missile technology, and the Indian Navy is only responsible for pressing the launch button, and as for the consequences after launching, the Indian Navy itself does not know whatever. Whether you can hit the target or not depends entirely on luck. Do we still need to learn Xi this kind of ballistic missile technology? I really don't know if the Indians themselves are too arrogant, or if they drink too much water from the Ganges

Besides, Sri Lanka's ports are not the only ones where Chinese ships dock here. Sri Lanka's geographical location is very important, from the Pacific Ocean across the Indian Ocean, European ships transporting goods basically have to dock in Sri Lanka, not only the United States, but also Europe and Russia, how can India tolerate it?

It can only be said that India is a drunkard this time, and it is not about drinking, but it is aimed at us.

So what exactly does India want to do?

India's motives are numerous, but the most definite ones are probably these two: first, India wants to assert its so-called sovereignty over the Indian Ocean. The Indian Ocean covers more than 70 million square kilometers and is a major transportation route connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. There are two most important economies in the world today, one is concentrated in East Asia, which is the base of manufacturing, and the other is concentrated in Europe, which is the concentration area of science and technology and consumption, and the most important thing connecting Europe and East Asia is the Indian Ocean.

This originally had nothing to do with India, but the Indian Ocean was named after India, and the speechless self-esteem of the Indians made them feel that all the places with the name of India were Indian, so under their other logic, the Indian Ocean became India's so-called territory. India does not look down on the power of the world powers to infiltrate the Indian Ocean, but the Americans do not want to offend, and Russia does not want to offend.

So we're unlucky.

And India doesn't want our strength to appear in India's backyard at all, Sri Lanka can be said to be a spasm of India, which is close to the Andaman Sea and the east coast of India, where almost half of the elite forces of the Indian Navy are concentrated. India's naval headquarters is located here, and on the side of the couch, others are not allowed to sleep soundly. If we get too close to Sri Lanka, or even simply come together, when we can set up a military base in Sri Lanka, it will be the end for India, so India also wants to use Sri Lanka as a knife this time, and show its authority in the Indian Ocean region by suppressing Sri Lanka, and at the same time, it can also suppress Sri Lanka's cooperation with us. Preventing Sri Lanka from becoming our friend would be of great help to India's defense interests.

In other words, the Sri Lankan government has absolutely no right to decide what is happening on its own soil, but it has to act according to the eyes of other countries, which can only be said to be the sorrow of a small country.

But then again, the docking of our research ship in Sri Lanka is intended to bring benefits to Sri Lanka, and it is entirely possible for both sides to achieve a win-win situation, and if the Sri Lankan government hurts us in order to curry favor with India, it will chill us. Then Sri Lanka's desire to get rid of India's control will not only fail to be achieved, but I am afraid that it will also lose our friend, and when the time comes, it will only end up in a chicken and a chicken.

If the Maldives dares to openly stand up against the Indian garrison, can't Sri Lanka be braver?
