In the face of a thrilling confrontation in the South China Sea, our ship is not afraid of a twice-sized Philippine ship, and in the face of safeguarding the sovereignty and dignity of China's territorial waters, would rather risk being hit and sunk than open fire? What the hell is going on? In a fierce confrontation, our ship showed its main gunsJust as China was celebrating the Spring Festival, there was a scene of fierce confrontation between ships in the South China Sea. According to the information released by China's coast guard, from February 2 to 9, the Philippine coast guard ship 9701 repeatedly illegally invaded the waters adjacent to China's Huangyan Island. When repeated warnings were ineffective, China's coast guard vessels adopted professional compulsory shipping control for Philippine vessels in accordance with the law to drive away Philippine vessels that trespassed into China's waters.
In particular, at the scene on February 8, the Philippine Coast Guard 9701, which was patrolling the islands and reefs in the South China Sea, quickly took measures to defend China's sovereignty, and the Philippine Coast Guard 9701, which was twice as large as itself, quickly took measures to place its hull in front of the Philippine ship to prevent it from moving forward according to the established route, violating China's sovereignty and security. In view of the volume gap between the two sides that cannot be ignored, cutting directly into the front of the other side's route is actually very dangerous for our 3105 ship, and it is likely to cause devastating damage. Even though the gun jacket on the 3105 ship has been removed, and the main guns are directly exposed, which can form a direct threat and deterrent to the other side, in fact, the naval guns on the 3105 ship are not aimed at the Philippine ships. In other words, if the Philippines ignores the collision, China's coast guard 3105 ship is still in a dangerous state, and even has the risk of being hit and sunk, this move shows the firm determination and sacrifice of the Chinese coast guard, but why would it rather take such a risk than fire?
Profound considerations behind ChinaFirst of all, the China Coast Guard insists on putting the overall situation first. The Philippines' frequent provocative actions are aimed at attracting the attention of the international community and garnering more support, especially the involvement of the United States and other countries, in order to effectively seize its interests in the South China Sea. However, as a responsible major country, it is our responsibility and obligation to maintain regional peace and stability, and it is also where our interests lie, and we do not want the situation in the South China Sea to deteriorate further, let alone other countries to interfere excessively in the affairs of the South China Sea. As a result, the CCG ship chose to exercise restraint to avoid escalation. Secondly, not firing the first shot is always an important principle. In terms of overall strategic development, we remain conservative and minimize the possibility of war with other countries. This move reflects China's responsible attitude and pursuit of peace and stability. As long as there is no **, we will be able to better grasp the development of the situation.
Finally, based on the above two points, the task of the Chinese coast guard ships is still to stop Philippine ships from violating our sovereignty, so that their plot will never be realized. In other words, the China Coast Guard does not need to directly destroy the other side, as long as it can effectively prevent the other side from acting in order to defend the country's sovereignty and security.
The effectiveness of this series of professional operations has been proven, and the Philippines has failed to live up to its intentions. In addition, the display of the main guns of China's coast guard 3105 ship is enough to deter Philippine ships and make them dare not increase the degree of chaos. You must know that the PJ-26 76mm naval gun on the 3105 ship has extremely strong fire suppression and destruction capabilities, while the Philippine Coast Guard 9701 ship is only equipped with small-caliber naval guns, and the level of firepower is not as good as that of the Chinese Coast Guard 3105 ship. Therefore, even if a fierce confrontation breaks out with the Chinese side, the Philippine ships will not dare to make serious moves with the Chinese coast guard ship at all costs.
