According to information from Taiwan's defense department, when the Taiwan military was firing various types of precision ammunition at the East Jiupeng base, a PLA armed helicopter that took off from a warship rushed directly into and flew 24 nautical miles away from the sea off Taitung, causing the Taiwan military to panic for a while.
Cai Zhengyuan, a former representative of the Kuomintang, said in light of the recent situation in the Taiwan Strait and the Middle East that if the green battalion provokes, it will be liquidated by the PLA.
The Taiwan military has quickened the pace of resisting reunification by force, and the Taiwan military has conducted a comprehensive test launch of missiles
In order to strengthen the Taiwan military's ability to "resist reunification by force," the Taiwan military has comprehensively launched an "annual missile precision firing training" and test-fired a variety of missiles and artillery, including various types of air defense missiles and rocket artillery.
Pingtung Jiupeng base
The live-fire training was mainly held at the Jiupeng base in Pingtung. Located in Pingtung County in southeastern Taiwan, this Jiupeng base is one of the three mysterious units of the Taiwan military, and is also touted by Taiwan media as the largest missile base in Asia.
It is said that the Jiupeng base is Taiwan's only test launch site that can launch medium-range ballistic missiles, artificial satellites, and rockets, so the Taiwan military's test launch of a new type of missile and artillery at the Jiupeng base this time is also in accordance with the previous "common practice."
The Taiwan military test-fired the "Land-launched Jian-2" surface-to-air missile
In fact, this is a modified version of the "Tianjian-2" radar-guided medium-range air-to-air missile (mainly equipped with a national fighter) independently developed by the Taiwan Air Force.
To be sure, the "Tianjian II" is actually a product of 20 years ago, and the missile's performance is only equivalent to the US military's AIM-120B medium-range air-to-air missile, which is not much an advanced weapon at present.
"Tianjian-2" radar-guided medium-range air-to-air missile
Therefore, one can imagine what the level of the "land-launched Jian-2" ground-to-air missile developed on the basis of the "Tianjian-2" is; according to the Taiwan military's own data, its effective range is 15 kilometers and it can hit helicopters, unmanned aerial vehicles, cruise missiles, and other targets.
Taiwan's military mainly replaces its "Xiaoxieshu" air defense system with the "Tianjian-2" surface-to-air missile, which is a land version of the AIM-9 close-range combat missile.
"Lujian-2" surface-to-air missile launcher
The main reason is that in recent years, the mainland's air force has become more and more powerful, and the Taiwan military believes that its air defense means are seriously insufficient in the face of the PLA, and it must develop a new generation of low-cost mobile land-based air defense systems.
Upon hearing the news, the PLA helicopters came and the Taiwan military was on full alert
According to Taiwan media reports, just as the Taiwan military was test-firing missiles, it was discovered that a PLA helicopter gunship had taken off from a naval ship off the eastern coast and flew only 24 nautical miles off the coast of Taitung, causing a certain panic among the Taiwan military and putting the air defense units on full alert.
Straight 9
However, Taiwan's defense department did not give a clear message, and the specific types of ships and planes dispatched by the PLA were uncertain, and only indicated that they were PLA carrier-based armed helicopters. Then there are two possibilities, the first is that the PLA is operating in the vicinity of the 054A or 052D drive, sending carrier-based Z-9 helicopters to the east of Taiwan Island.

The second is a joint naval and air exercise of the PLA Army and Coast Guard in Taitung, in which the Wuzhi-10 of the PLA Army Aviation will go to the waters of Taiwan Island for training, land on the prefabricated platform of the Navy ships on the way, circle around Taiwan Island again after refueling, and then return to the mainland.
In any case, however, the fact that the PLA helicopter flew in the vicinity of the Taiwan military when it was test-firing a missile revealed a clear signal that the mainland side is well aware of any action of the Taiwan military and that the Taiwan military has no secrets to speak of in front of the PLA.
However, many Taiwan media, especially green media and netizens, do not think so, thinking that the PLA is just "showmanship" to scare the Taiwan military, and the mainland often deploys missiles to "scare" Taiwan, and no matter how many missiles the PLA has, it is useless, because Iran has fired hundreds of missiles and drones at Israel before, and Israel's interception rate has reached 99%, and Taiwan's air defense system can be called "impregnable".
However, the so-called 99 percent interception rate is an out-and-out lie, and it can be determined that more than a dozen Iranian missiles have hit three Israeli military targets, and Israel, with the support of the United States, Britain, and Jordan, has only 60 percent interception rate for Iranian missiles, and this is when Iran has only launched less than 50 missiles.
It can be said that the "information cocoon" of the green media is enough to fool the people on the island into "stupid people".
All in all, cross-strait relations have continued to decline since the DPP came to power, and the Taiwan authorities have been engaged in the trick of "resisting reunification by force," including the current test firing of missiles at the East Jiupeng base against the PLA.
Cai Zhengyuan warned Lai Qingde: Be careful of being liquidated
At present, Lai Qingde is about to succeed Tsai Ing-wen to continue to "govern," and in this regard, Tsai Zhengyuan clearly warned Lai Qingde about the situation in the Taiwan Strait and the Middle East, and Tsai Zhengyuan said that if Lai Qingde dares to make "Taiwan independence" remarks in his 520 speech, he will finish the game and the mainland will inevitably be liquidated.
Cai Zhengyuan
Cai Zhengyuan believes that if a war breaks out between the two sides of the strait, the PLA's missiles will be extremely accurate and extremely fast, and the Taiwan and US militaries will not be able to stop them.
Second, the tremendous power of the PLA's missiles will also be unbearable for the Taiwan military to cause war damage, and the PLA's missile targets will mainly focus on the party, government, and military media in the green battalion, and the casualties in the green battalion will be very heavy, so it is better for the politicians in the green battalion to avoid provoking the other side.
The density of PLA rocket artillery and missile strikes far exceeds the imagination of the Taiwan military
It can be said that Cai Zhengyuan's remarks are not unreasonable, and once a military conflict breaks out between the two sides of the strait, the generals of the Taiwan military will learn the largest and most intensive large-scale precision strike operation since the Cold War.
It can be said that given the distance between Taiwan and the mainland, the range of the PLA's long-range rocket artillery battalion in the event of a conflict will be able to cover the Taiwan area, plus the PLA has a large number of short-range ballistic missiles and cruise missiles in stock.
In wartime, tens of thousands of rockets and missiles can basically be fired at the island, and the density of firepower is unprecedented; as far as the Taiwan military's air defense system is concerned, it can only be said that it is a drop in the bucket, and wherever the PLA rockets and missiles go, there will be a sea of fire.
