In October 1994, a vicious incident occurred in the Yellow Sea of China.
The US aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk intruded into China's territorial waters for no reason and besieged our army's Type 09 attack nuclear submarine for three days and three nights.
What is infuriating is that the Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier battle group has used China's nuclear submarine as a tool for military training on the ocean and has carried out seven simulated strikes against it. And such behavior is already commonplace for the US military!
After the end of World War II, Britain gradually handed over the scepter of world hegemony, and the strongest naval strength at that time was the United States and the Soviet Union, and some of the victorious countries of World War II more or less purchased some large warships such as aircraft carriers from Britain and the Soviet Union.
Countries on all continents of the world have launched a competition for marine resources, and countries in the middle and upper reaches of the comprehensive national strength have expanded their territorial waters to within 12 nautical miles, while most developing countries have only 3 nautical miles.
But by the end of the 50s, the Soviet Union was no longer satisfied with this range, and their ambitions were constantly expanding, and at one point they even expanded the number to 200 nautical miles.
In order to confront the Soviet Union, the United States united many of its allies and issued a "Freedom of Navigation on the High Seas" Convention at the United Nations, which was the predecessor of the so-called "freedom of navigation" of the United States.
Later, in 1982 and 1994, the United States amended the bill twice, proceeding from its own interests, formulating a definition of "territorial sea" and "archipelago", and stipulating the ownership of a country's exclusive economic zone, continental shelf, and seabed resources in the posture of the world leader.
China is reluctant to admit that the bill is a blatant act of aggression, such as in the South China Sea, where it has divided dozens of islands and reefs that originally belonged to China to the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia and other countries.
Later, the European Union and countries on several other continents joined forces to revise the maritime convention to make it more fair and just, but the United States did not do it, and they had already agreed to join it, but they have not been able to sign the convention for a long time, and it has been delayed until now.
What do Americans want?What they want is their own freedom of navigation.
In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to use its hegemony to restrain other countries from exploiting marine resources, and to ensure that the US fleet and their merchant ships are unimpeded around the world.
It is absurd that the Americans, who act on their strength as their guideline and act hegemonically around the world, but point fingers at the legitimate rights and interests of other countries, such as accusing China of excessive sovereignty in the South China Sea, have been able to traverse our Taiwan Strait with impunity in the past few decades.
They ostensibly recognize the one-China principle, but they do not recognize China's sovereignty over the Taiwan Strait, and it is clear that they regard the Taiwan Strait as an international waterway.
And back to earlier, the United States even carried out various military activities unscrupulously in the Lianyungang waters of the Yellow Sea, as well as in the waters of Shanghai.
You must know that the Yellow Sea is the most strategically important sea area in our country, and the United States has deployed a large number of military bases in the Republic of Korea across the sea
The nuclear crisis that erupted on the Korean Peninsula in 1994 plunged China into the specter of a war once again.
In 1993, the situation on the Korean Peninsula changed abruptly, and the CIA had conclusive evidence that North Korea was building a nuclear reactor, which made the United States feel like a great enemy.
Once North Korea has mastered nuclear power, it will be a huge blow to the US military bases in Japan and South Korea.
Since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, the world has faced a new crisis: the risk of nuclear proliferation caused by the collapse of the Soviet Union. For Clinton, who had just taken office at that time, how to resolve the nuclear crisis became his top priority.
In fact, it is no secret that North Korea is engaged in nuclear research, as early as the 60s, North Korea has begun to act, but under the economic blockade of the United States, in the end North Korea chose to take a step back and open the sky, and signed the "Non-Proliferation Treaty".
But for many years since then, the United States has not fulfilled its promise of economic assistance to North Korea, so North Korea has not completely abandoned its pursuit of nuclear power.
In order to defuse the crisis, Clinton personally went to the DPRK to make representations, but his efforts did not bring good results.
North Korea, which had already agreed to be conducted by UN atomic energy observers to conduct inspections in North Korea, suddenly turned around and expelled the IAEA.
A few days after Clinton returned home, the United States convened a special meeting, at which Clinton demanded that the US Department of Defense come up with a war plan against the DPRK as soon as possible, and war was about to break out.
As a matter of fact, the United States has long been prepared for this combat plan, and after many revisions, it finally came up with a combat plan codenamed "5026" against the DPRK.
According to this operational plan, the United States will carry out a large-scale long-range bombing of the DPRK in an attempt to wipe out the DPRK's vital forces through long-range firepower and minimize the consumption of its landing operations.
But there were two very different views in the United States about going to war with North Korea, such as then-U.S. Secretary of Defense Perry.
He was extremely jealous of China's involvement, thinking that in the 50s, China's national strength was less than one-tenth of that of the United States, and the United States still lost when the gap between the two sides was so big, not to mention that in the 90s, China's combat power had increased by I don't know how many times.
Perry**, if China enters the war, the United States coalition forces will have at least 500,000 casualties, and this war is even likely to turn into World War III.
And the most opposed to war is actually South Korea.
At that time, South Korea was wailing, because after the battle started, they South Korea would definitely not be better than North Korea, and it was very likely that it would be the end of the country's destruction.
At this highly sensitive moment, the former American ** Carter stood up, saying that he was willing to go to North Korea to contact Kim Il Sung for the sake of peace, try to do Kim Il Sung's work, and get North Korea to abandon its nuclear research program.
On June 16, 1994, Carter arrived in Pyongyang, North Korea.
After a long talk with Kim Il Sung, Carter achieved the satisfactory result he wanted, and just when the three US armed forces were on standby and ready to go, Kim Il Sung dialed Clinton's **, and in just one minute of phone call, the war that was about to break out was stillborn.
As a condition for North Korea to abandon its nuclear tests, the United States promised to help North Korea build two light-water reactors in the next few years, and provide a large number of **.
Just when people thought that the matter was over, there was another moth on the American side.
In fact, the so-called nuclear threat is nothing at all in the eyes of those who are actually in power in the United States, it is just a bargaining chip in negotiations, and the result that the Americans want is war.
As we all know, since World War I, the United States has relied on their military industry to make a fortune, and this country, which has a history of only 200 years, has been waging wars against foreign countries every year, except for one year because of the outbreak of civil war, because only war can bring benefits to the military industry on which they depend
Therefore, in the months after Clinton and Kim Il Sung signed the agreement, the United States did not fulfill their promises, and the North Korean side was very annoyed by this, thinking that the United States was playing tricks on them, and in a fit of rage, they expelled the investigation team of the United Nations Atomic Energy Agency.
This is exactly the response that the Americans wanted, and then the United States once again launched their war plan against North Korea.
However, before the start of the war, a large number of anti-war demonstrations broke out in the United States, and in view of the rising waves of domestic opposition to the war, the top level of the United States had to once again evaluate whether to start this war.
As a result of the assessment, an aircraft carrier battle group was sent to China's Yellow Sea to test China's response.
At the end of September, the USS Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier battle group arrived in South Korea from **, and this time they did not send a full aircraft carrier formation, but only 3 destroyers, plus 3 cruisers, as well as 1 frigate and two strategic nuclear submarines.
However, all of them are the highest combat power of the US military, and if they really want to fight, China is obviously not an opponent.
Although this was a "sneak attack" by the United States, it did not use its air force to cover it, in fact, it was to make the Chinese side react.
As a result, on the same day, I happened to encounter a Chinese Project 403 nuclear submarine.
At that time, the 403 had just finished a training mission and had just surfaced to return home, because the area where the incident occurred was in China's territorial waters, so the 403 did not expect to encounter enemy troops.
After the U.S. military encountered No. 403, their top brass immediately thought of a despicable ghost idea, and even launched a lightning attack, surrounded No. 403, and then forced No. 403 to change course.
At the same time, because the US military put a large number of sonar devices around No. 403, the signal was completely blocked, so that our submarine could not get in touch with the headquarters at the first time.
What is even more excessive is that since then, the US military has conducted a total of 7 simulated strike experiments on No. 403, which is equivalent to using No. 403 as a live target for training.
However, the Chinese naval forces did not discover that No. 403 was missing until the afternoon of the third day, and China's Qingdao Port Naval Base immediately sent Su-27 and two J-8 fighters to the sea area where the incident occurred.
Before departure, ** also gave an order:"In case of emergency, you do not need to ask for instructions, you can directly report to the US military**.
After the two sides met, the US military also sent an F14 fighter team to respond, and the situation came to a stalemate.
After our Su-27 issued a warning to no avail, it decisively locked onto the F14, and when it was about to launch missiles, several F14s on the other side saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly turned the nose of the plane and fled.
This test made the United States understand that once they start a war with North Korea, China will definitely not sit idly by.
Even if our military strength is inferior to theirs, there are many factors that determine a war, and I believe the Americans have a deep understanding of the strength of the squadron!
