Recently, the Philippines' actions in the South China Sea have attracted much attention. Although they claimed that the operation was for the so-called "Christmas Caravan in the West African Sea", China already knew what they were trying to do. Before the Philippines could enter Ren'ai Jiao, the Chinese ship Changsha blocked their way. The 052D Changsha ship, with a displacement of 7,000 tons and a large number of missiles, quickly appeared in front of the Philippines, making the Philippines dare not take a step forward. In fact, the Philippines has already announced their plans on the **, so China has already prepared various measures to deal with it. Long before this operation, Western satellites had already photographed a number of Chinese ships docked at Mischief Reef, which also showed that China had already left a trail and incorporated the possible intervention of the United States in this operation. If it is only against the Philippines, the Chinese People's Liberation Army will dispatch 3-5 022 missile boats at will to defuse any trouble. If the tonnage is insufficient, Type 054A frigates can also be dispatched. According to Western satellites, the medium-sized ships docked at Mischief Reef include Type 052C and Type 052D destroyers, Type 072 landing ships, Type 053H3 frigates, Type 022 missile boats, and other Chinese Sea ** boats. This huge naval formation is undoubtedly very formidable. The Changsha ship, which blocked the way to the Philippines, is one of the main ships of the Chinese Navy, with a displacement of 7,000 tons, equipped with a domestic H PJ-38 130 mm single-barreled naval gun, with 64 vertical launch units, and equipped with a 346A active phased array radar, which can launch various missiles such as Haihongqi-9, YJ-18, and Yu-8. Neither for the Philippines nor for any Southeast Asian country, there are no ships comparable to it.
The Philippine "West African Sea Christmas Caravan" operation is said to have entered the South China Sea with more than 140 Filipino "civilian volunteers" aboard the maritime training ship "Captain Felix Oka" and escorted by three Philippine Coast Guard ships through a coordinated cooperation between the civilian and coast guards, with the aim of defending so-called "civil rights and interests". However, in the case that the broken ship stranded on Ren'ai Jiao in the Philippines could disintegrate at any time, these more than 140 so-called Filipino "civil volunteers" are not just to deliver food and water, but also deliberately carry out simple repairs to the broken ship. When they saw the Chinese Changsha ship approaching, they immediately retreated, and no longer had the courage to venture forward.
China's determination to safeguard national sovereignty and maritime rights and interests in the South China Sea has been recognized by the world. The actions of the Philippines and its supporters were in vain. China's coast guard is strong enough to respond to provocations by the Philippines. The Philippines' actions in the South China Sea will not have any impact on China's control of the overall strategic situation.
Although the United States has always shown a strong interest in the situation in the South China Sea, China still does not want the situation in the South China Sea to deteriorate further. As a result, China has exercised restraint in response to provocations by the Philippines. However, if the United States intervenes in this operation, the situation in the South China Sea will change completely. China must maintain deterrence, not only for the Philippine ships stranded on China's Ren'ai Jiao, but also for nine islands and reefs, including Thitu Island, which was illegally occupied by the Philippines. China's determination and strength have made it difficult for the United States to intervene lightly. The large size of the Chinese Navy, as well as the large number of ** types, are enough for the United States to reassess its strategy in the South China Sea.
To sum up, the Chinese giant ship Changsha blocked the momentum of the Philippines and demonstrated the strength of the Chinese Navy. The gorgeous ** formation and powerful equipment make the Philippines dare not take a step beyond the thunder pool. China has responded to the Philippines' provocations with restraint, but if the situation deteriorates, it will certainly take more decisive action. China's strategic control of the South China Sea has not been affected by the Philippines' provocations. Whether it is a conspiracy or a conspiracy, everything will be in vain in the face of absolute power.
