The 1996 first-level combat readiness refers to the highest level of combat readiness that China entered throughout the country during the Taiwan Strait crisis, that is, war may start at any time, but many PLA soldiers lost sleep all night on the eve of military Xi, and even wrote suicide notes to their families in the dormitory, which shows how huge the psychological pressure is. The crisis stemmed from the visit of the leader of the Taiwan region to the United States and his supportive remarks on several occasions. The incident has sparked global attention and led Chinese mainland to take a series of measures to deal with the crisis.
Level 1 combat readiness refers to a state of comprehensive and high-intensity military readiness adopted by a country when it faces the threat of war or has entered a state of war. In this state, the state will mobilize a large amount of human, material and financial resources to strengthen national defense construction and improve military combat capabilities to ensure national defense and territorial integrity.
The words and actions of the leader of the Taiwan region, these words and deeds are tantamount to lighting a bomb in the world. His behavior not only intensified the contradictions between Taiwan and the mainland, but also caused *** to fall into a tense situation. In the face of such challenges, in order to firmly safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity, China has resolutely adopted large-scale military exercises and Xi declared that it has entered a state of first-class combat readiness. It's like a lion showing determination and strength in the face of provocation.
Looking back at history, in April 1949, the Chinese People's Liberation Army successfully liberated the vast area south of the Yangtze River, marking the founding of New China. Soon after the founding of New China, our army began to plan to march into the coastal islands of Taiwan and Fujian. In October 1949, our army decided to attack Kinmen and Xiamen and launched a series of combat operations.
Although our army suffered a certain amount of ** in this operation to land on Gulangyu, in the end the People's Liberation Army successfully occupied Xiamen Island and Gulangyu Island. This victory not only demonstrated the great strength of our army, but also laid a solid foundation for the further liberation of Taiwan.
In April 1950, the Communist Party of China once again put forward the idea of "liberating Taiwan as the most important combat task of the whole party." The liberation of Taiwan has become the most important task of the new China, and in order to achieve this goal, our army has successively set up naval and air force units, and has assembled 150,000 elite troops.
However, the US attempt to ** Taiwan has once again aroused the anger of the Chinese people. In view of this situation, after a year's rest, our army once again raised the slogan of "liberating Taiwan." In September 1954, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) shelled Kinmen twice, expressing its resolute condemnation of the United States' meddling in China's affairs.
Since then, the PLA has continued to conduct a series of military exercises and demonstrations in the Taiwan Strait Xi These actions not only demonstrate the strength and determination of our military, but also remind the world that any attempt to challenge China's reunification is bound to be met with resolute counterattack.
On 18 July 1995, the Chinese People's Liberation Army conducted ground-to-surface missile launch exercises and Xi training in the open waters of the East China Sea, demonstrating to the world our military's advanced technology and combat capabilities.
In March 1996, in order to combat the provocative acts of the Taiwan authorities, our military continued to conduct military exercises Xi show China's determination to safeguard national reunification.
Looking back at history, the victorious course of the Chinese People's Liberation Army in liberating the vast areas south of the Yangtze River and the KMT's defeat and retreat to Taiwan is a heroic and glorious battle history. It not only verifies the correct leadership of the Communist Party of China, but also demonstrates the powerful military strength of our army. In the face of challenges, the Chinese People's Liberation Army will always resolutely defend national unity and sovereignty and fight for the interests of the Chinese people.
Therefore, in the 1996 Taiwan Strait crisis, China took a series of measures to deal with the "remarks" of the country. First of all, China expressed its strong dissatisfaction and opposition to the United States through diplomatic channels, and demanded that the United States restrain its behavior. At the same time, China** has also strengthened its military preparations, including mobilizing troops and strengthening the defense of coastal areas.
Against this background, China ** declared a state of combat readiness at the first level. This means that China has made comprehensive preparations to deal with the war, including the deployment of troops, the reserve of materials, and the mobilization of civilians. At the same time, China has also sent a clear signal to the outside world that China will not tolerate the behavior of any country, nor will it give up its determination to safeguard its territorial integrity.
In this crisis, China's response has been widely praised and supported at home and abroad. Many countries expressed support for China's position and called on the United States to restrain its behavior. At the same time, public opinion in China is also highly supportive of the action, believing that it is a necessary measure to safeguard national dignity and territorial integrity.
Generally speaking, the Taiwan Strait crisis in 1996 was an important crisis event in China's history, and it was also an important practice for China to adopt a first-level state of combat readiness. This crisis not only tests China's ability to respond, but also demonstrates China's firm determination to safeguard its territorial integrity.
