As for the disputes in the South China Sea, there has been no end for some time. Since the U.S. military deployed intermediate-range ballistic missile systems on Luzon, with the support of the U.S. military, the Philippines' provocation against China has also reached a new level.
But before it could be truly complacent, China's countermeasures had already come!
The Philippines has falsely accused China of land reclamation in the South China Sea
Long after the United States deployed the Typhon medium-range missile system on Luzon, its strike range directly covered many coastal cities in mainland China, which in itself threatened China's bottom line.
After all, the fact that missiles that can threaten the homeland is naturally worth taking seriously. Before this, many people did not know how the mainland should respond.
The solution that many people can think of is to improve China's radar air defense system, in a vain attempt to prevent enemy missiles from falling on the mainland through a powerful air defense system.
But it's a defensive gesture after all! In fact, the mainland has always been a peace-loving country, and it has never taken the initiative to target any country, and everything it does is just to fight back.
But many netizens still forgot after all that the clay figures still have three points of fire, not to mention that China has never lacked tough hawkish representatives.
However, China has not yet made a clear counter-attack, and who would have thought that the Philippine side would start spreading rumors that China is reclaiming land at Sembin Reef for the purpose of targeting the Philippines.
And it's a bit of a thing!
Senbin Reef is located about 124 nautical miles from the Philippine island of Palawan, one of the larger islands in the Philippines, located halfway between the islands of Luzon and Kalimantan.
And if the mainland reclaims land at Xianbin Reef, it can be turned into a military airfield and even a forward base.
The U.S. military deployed medium-range missile systems on Luzon Island, covering coastal cities on the mainland.
If the reclamation of Sembin Reef completes the deployment of the forward base, then a missile system will be deployed in this area, and it will not only cover Luzon, but even the entire Philippines.
I have to admit that the Philippine side is really quite good at false accusations!
After all, China has not yet made relevant measures, and the Philippines has not only made false accusations, but even listed their feasibility and pertinence!
If it weren't for the timely response of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, saying that this is a rumor and slander, I am afraid that our own people would have believed it.
The Philippines' series of methods of first making false accusations and then condemning them has really shocked many people.

The Philippines sent ships to monitor land reclamation on the mainland
Combined with the practice of the Philippine side, it really makes people say that this is the case! Or will the Philippines play!
The Philippine side first said that China is preparing to start a new "land reclamation" activity around the newly emerged coral sandbar in the waters of Sembin Reef in the Spratly Islands.
Later, they claimed that in order to maintain the current state of Xianbin Reef, they immediately sent a ship to monitor it, and at the same time, they also made a research ship to investigate the nearby waters!
This kind of operation really makes the international community stunned! On the bright side, he grabbed people first, and secretly played the trick of dark Chen Cang.
This made many people react, it turned out that the Philippines was not over staring at Ren'ai Jiao, and even wanted to meddle in Xianbin Jiao.
Xianbin Jiao has always been located around the Spratly Islands, and it has been one of China's inherent territories since ancient times.
But with such a play, it is obvious that the face is also better. But more people are still curious, playing such a play at the door of China, the Philippines is so bold?
The reason for this is that the Philippines thinks that it has the backing of the US military, so it feels that it is not afraid of China and can provoke China, and even try in vain to seize China's territory to achieve its own interests.
But provoking China is clearly a wrong decision for the Philippines. And this wrong decision was already made in the Philippines once in 2016.
Facts have proved that the Philippine side does not have a long memory, and the most important point is that China is no longer the China it used to be.
In 2016, China obviously still had a big gap in naval strength, and the era of only relying on an aircraft carrier to defend the country has passed.
Today's China is about to enter the era of three aircraft carriers, and the Philippines is still vainly trying to provoke China, which is obviously an extremely stupid decision.
On the point that the Philippines has framed China for land reclamation in the South China Sea.
It is true that China has carried out several land reclamation activities in the South China Sea, and this behavior is also aimed at better controlling the South China Sea so that mainland fighter jets can have sufficient supply points.
As an infrastructure madman, China naturally has mature technology in land reclamation.
Some islands and reefs can take off and land aircraft, and some islands and reefs have deployed Beidou navigation base stations, and the completion of these infrastructure facilities has created a solid foundation for the mainland to further protect its territory and curb provocations by external forces.
In fact, more people are curious, China's land reclamation in the South China Sea has not actually stopped, why is the current Philippines suddenly hyping up such a thing?
If China really makes a move to reclaim land from the sea, it will naturally not hide this from the international community, and it will naturally take the initiative to admit it.
But if you don't do something, you will naturally not take the blame, especially in the face of a country like the Philippines that goes back on its word.

A Chinese diplomatic spokesman called the accusation false
At a regular news conference on May 13, Reuters reporters raised Philippine Coast Guard remarks, claiming to maintain the current state of the reef and organizing China's land reclamation.
For this reason, mainland Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin specifically pointed out that all these are rumors spread by the Philippines, and the Philippine side's accusations against China are groundless and pure rumors.
In fact, since the Philippine defense secretary denied the former gentlemen's agreement and the content of the high-level phone calls between the two sides, the reputation of the Philippines in the international community has been discredited.
And now the Philippines is still smearing and spreading rumors about China in the international community, trying to mislead the international community, all in vain.
China's image in the international community is evaluated by the international community, and everyone has a scale in their hearts.
On the contrary, the Philippine side has reversed itself, and such a villainous act is truly despicable!
As for the topic of the South China Sea, all words and deeds are inconsistent, which makes people laugh and be generous.
On many issues related to the South China Sea, the Philippine government has tried to put itself on the moral high ground by defending itself and criticizing China for its land reclamation in the South China Sea.
For this, the mainland has not bothered to pay attention. After all, justice is at ease in the hearts of the people, and the eyes of the masses are bright, and it is clear who has always had very big ambitions.
The South China Sea has always been China's inherent territory, and whatever China does in its own territory, not to mention normal scientific research activities, even if it is really land reclamation, it is China's own business.
However, the fact that the Philippines has frequently shown such concern for the mainland's South China Sea Islands has long been known to everyone in Sima Zhao's heart.
From the Philippines' point of view, everything is still based on gaining benefits from China, whether it is the Sierra Madre on Ren'ai Shoal or the Sembin Reef today.
The Philippine side of Ren'ai Reef can still use the Sierra Madre to defend itself, but the Philippine side is too broad in the matter of Xianbin Reef. This is blatant interference in the internal affairs of the mainland!
The Philippine side has repeatedly claimed that its actions are in line with the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea, but in fact it has committed various provocative acts that run counter to the core concept of the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea.
The core purpose of China's various infrastructure construction and land reclamation on some islands and reefs is to better fulfill China's international responsibilities and obligations in maritime search and rescue, navigation safety, and marine scientific research.
It is also exercising its own jurisdiction over its own territory, which has nothing to do with other countries, and the Philippines is paying so much attention to this, which seems to have a lot ulterior motives.
China's diplomatic spokesman also stressed once again that he still hopes that the Philippines can earnestly implement the South China Sea Declaration and make efforts to maintain peace in the South China Sea, instead of provoking the situation in the South China Sea as it is now.
China has always adhered to the principle of friendly and peaceful exchanges with other countries, and hopes that the Philippine side will recognize the facts clearly and that following the United States is doomed to no good end.
Maintaining a good relationship with China does no harm to the Philippines! China doesn't cause trouble, but it's never afraid of things either!
