If the conditions for peaceful reunification are completely lost, the grim situation in the Taiwan Strait will force the PLA to make the necessary preparations for resolving the Taiwan issue by all means.
Nearly 200,000 Taiwan troops have become a bargaining chip for the Taiwan authorities to "resist reunification by force." The density of Taiwan's military deployments today is rare in the world, and the key to cross-strait reunification lies in the annihilation of the 24 main forces of the Taiwan army.
Deployment of the Taiwan Navy, Army, and Air Force
After years of reduction, the total strength of the Taiwan army is about 170,000 people, distributed on the island of Taiwan, which is only 36,000 square kilometers, and the island has been fortified and fortressed in an attempt to prevent the PLA from landing across the sea.
Taiwan's air defense, surface warships, fighter wings, and ground mobile combat units are the anti-landing means that the Taiwan military relies on the most. It is also a great threat to our army.
The mobile combat strength of Taiwan's ground forces is composed of two army aviation brigades, four armored brigades, three mechanized infantry brigades, and two brigades of the Marine Corps.
Most of the Taiwan Army's tanks, armored transport vehicles, self-propelled guns, and other heavy equipment are concentrated in the hands of three armored brigades and four mechanized infantry brigades, and they are concealed and standby in areas where the PLA is likely to land, and they will launch tactical counterattacks against our landing troops while our army's foothold is not stable.
In addition to the 5th Fighter Wing, which is deployed at the Hualien base in eastern Taiwan, the remaining four tactical wings are deployed in western Taiwan and the Penghu Islands, and the IDF fighters of the 1st Wing of the Taiwan Air Force in the Penghu Islands are deployed in front to guard the movements of the PLA on the west coast of the Taiwan Strait. Taitung's 5th Wing relied on the Coastal Mountains and Central Mountains to evade key attacks by the PLA and preserve its combat strength.
The air defense brigade under the Taiwan Air Force is a key construction unit of the Taiwan military, and there are five subordinate air defense brigades, the 791st Air Defense Brigade equipped with the "Hsiung Feng 2E" cruise missile, the 792nd Air Defense Brigade in eastern Taiwan, the 793rd Air Defense Brigade in northern Taiwan, the 794th Air Defense Brigade in the south, and the 795th Air Defense Brigade in the central part of Taiwan.
The remaining four air defense brigades of the Taiwan military are equipped with a large number of US-made "Patriot" air defense missiles and "Tiangong" air defense missiles, and the attack firepower of the air defense missiles covers the Taiwan Strait and the entire island of Taiwan.
The combat ships of the Taiwan Navy are mainly concentrated in the hands of the three main forces of the 124th Fleet, the 131st Fleet, and the 146th Fleet, and are equipped with more than 20 destroyers and nearly 40 missile boats.
Now, does the PLA have the ability to strike at 24 key units of the Taiwan army?
What are the means of strike of the PLA
The PLA has the best effect of fighting against the Taiwan Air Force, suppressing the five major fighter wings of the Taiwan Army at the airfield and avoiding falling into a time-consuming battle in which the fighters of both sides seize air supremacy.
Our army's Dongfeng-15B missile and Dongfeng-16 conventional missile carrying submunitive warhead are the core means of striking at Taiwan's military airfields, and PHL-191 long-range rocket artillery can also perform such tasks.
A number of Dongfeng-16 missile brigades, Dongfeng-15 missile brigades, and long-range rocket artillery battalions of the PLA Rocket Force have been deployed on the front line of the Taiwan Strait for a long time, and are fully capable of accurately striking airfields on Taiwan islands.
After striking the runway of an airfield, our army's short-range ballistic missiles and cruise missiles, which are equipped with penetrating and high-explosive bombs, will swarm in order to achieve the combat effect of continuous suppression for a long time.
Since the beginning of its establishment, the PLA Navy has regarded anti-ship operations as its core capability, and on the front line of the Taiwan Strait, the PLA shore-to-ship missiles have undertaken the task of blockading, and multiple shore-to-ship missile regiments are sufficient to blockade the Taiwan Strait and the surrounding waters of more than 400 kilometers from north to south.
At present, most of our army's 22 missile boats are used intensively and can undertake mobile anti-ship tasks; recently, CCTV's military program openly reported a propaganda video of the PLA missile boat units carrying out their tasks, and a number of Type 22 missile boats were ordered to leave the port to carry out exercise tasks and carry out fire strikes against the enemy.
Of course, the anti-ship capability of a large number of main ships of the PLA Navy, such as 054A frigates and 052D missile destroyers, is more comprehensive and powerful, and various types of subsonic anti-ship missiles and supersonic anti-ship missiles have strong sea assault capabilities with the support of the system.
The Taiwan army's air defense missile positions and radar positions have been fully mastered by the PLA, and the survivability of the Taiwan army's fixedly deployed air defense missile positions is low; during the patrol of Taiwan, the PLA's Dongfeng-15 missiles hit the predetermined targets in Taiwan's eastern region under Taiwan's "Patriot" missiles, thus testing the actual combat penetration capability of our army's conventional missile forces.
Under the demand of long-term preparations for a military struggle against Taiwan, the PLA has intensively deployed DF-11A, DF-15B, and DF-16 short-range ballistic missiles on the front line of the Taiwan Strait to carry out deterrence and actual combat strike missions.
As for the Taiwan military's ground mobile combat units, it is necessary for our air force, air force, conventional missile troops, and artillery units to exert their precision strike capabilities, and to be able to inflict heavy losses in the stage of fire assault as much as possible, so as to reduce the pressure on the PLA landing force and ground combat units.
The remaining ground units of the Taiwan army need joint air-ground strikes by our unmanned aerial vehicles, armed helicopters, and ground combat units, and it is estimated that they do not have much confidence in whether the ground units of the Taiwan military will be able to reach the preset positions on the beachhead.
When the conditions for peaceful reunification are completely lost, the PLA will remain motionless and thunderbolt, and this will be the ultimate means to accomplish national reunification.
