Since 024, the Philippines has caused many conflicts in the South China Sea, including sending a small aircraft to the "beached" Philippine ship at Ren'ai Jiao on January 21 for air resupply! The Philippines' provocative actions continue and the China Coast Guard responds decisively, demonstrating China's determination and ability to safeguard sovereignty and stability in the South China Sea. On February 11, the China Coast Guard issued an authoritative statement: From February 2 to February 9, the Philippine Coast Guard 9701's Teresa Magbanua repeatedly illegally entered the waters near China's Scarborough Shoal. In the face of the provocation of the Philippine vessel, the Chinese coast guard responded decisively in accordance with the law, demonstrating strong professionalism. When the Chinese Coast Guard's verbal warning failed to work, they implemented route control and external forced eviction of the Philippine ship in accordance with the law, and implemented professional handling standards on the spot!
Authoritative China Coast Guard announcement.
According to the authoritative statement issued by the China Coast Guard, we learned that the Philippine Coast Guard ship No. 9701 has been active in the direction of Scarborough Shoal in the South China Sea for many days, and has repeatedly tried to enter the waters near Scarborough Shoal! This successive provocations cannot help but raise doubts about the intentions of the Philippines. If it is said that the Philippine operation in the direction of Ren'ai Jiao was to provide necessary supplies to the "beached" Philippine ship, then the continuous operation of the Philippine coast guard ship No. 9701 in the direction of Scarborough Shoal is a provocation, because there is no "beached" Philippine ship on Scarborough Shoal, and the Philippine coast guard ship cannot find a reasonable reason or excuse for its actions in any case.

In the face of the provocative behavior of the Philippine Coast Guard vessel, the Chinese Coast Guard has taken necessary and powerful countermeasures! According to the Philippine release on the ground**, when the Philippine Coast Guard ship 9701 tried to enter the waters near Scarborough Shoal, the Chinese coast guard ship 3105 bravely blocked the front of the Philippine ship. In the face of the Chinese coast guard's strong interception and dispersion, the Philippine coast guard ship 9701 had to change course and finally failed to enter the waters near Scarborough Shoal. The CCG's firm stance has made the Philippines realize that Scarborough Shoal is not territory they can easily covet. It is no exaggeration to say that the interception operation of the Chinese Coast Guard not only successfully stopped the Philippine Coast Guard's attempt, but also sent a clear warning to the Philippines: We are willing to pay any price to defend the sovereignty and security of Scarborough Shoal!

After witnessing the scene at the scene, we are really nervous and worried about the China Coast Guard Ship 3105! It is important to understand that the Philippine Coast Guard ship 9701 is one of the few large coast guard ships in the Philippines. The ship was built on the basis of Japan's Kunigami-class marine protection vessels, with a full load displacement of up to 2,600 tons. In comparison, the China Coast Guard Ship 3105 has a displacement of just over a thousand tons. Moreover, the Philippine Coast Guard ship 9701 directly rammed the starboard side of the Chinese Coast Guard Ship 3105 with its sturdy bow. If the Philippine Coast Guard ship did not change course at that time and directly rammed the Chinese Coast Guard ship, then from the perspective of the impact angle and the displacement of the two ships, it would obviously be very unfavorable to our coast guard ship!
The 9701 belongs to the Philippine Coast Guard.
From this, we can observe that the 3105 Coast Guard ship is likely to be prepared for a strong collision that may result in injury or even death in the process of intercepting the Philippine Coast Guard ship! However, in order to protect the sovereignty and safety of China's Scarborough Shoal, the 3105 Coast Guard vessel showed fearless courage and sacrifice, and resolutely countered the provocations of the Philippine Coast Guard vessel even in the face of great danger. This courage to dare to fight with bayonets at sea deeply moved and moved us!
The Chinese Coast Guard 3105 ship continues to fight in the direction of Scarborough Shoal.
If you look closely at the scene, you will notice that the China Coast Guard ship No. 3105 at that time had taken off the gun jacket of the main gun, which indicates that the No. 3105 Coast Guard ship was ready for a worse situation, such as a possible collision or direct conflict! I won't repeat it here, so let's take a look at which ** this coast guard ship is equipped with. It is worth mentioning that the Haijing 3105 coast guard ship I piloted was actually a Type 056 frigate that was modified after being decommissioned. Although the tonnage of this ship is not huge, it is a converted ** after all. In terms of seaworthiness, maneuvering speed and impact resistance, it all performed quite well. In addition, the ship is armed with a 120mm automatic naval gun with a maximum rate of fire of 76 rounds per minute, and its ** configuration is also quite powerful.
The beauty of Scarborough Shoal is intoxicating.
If the Philippine Coast Guard vessel had dared to collide directly with the Chinese Coast Guard vessel 3105, the Coast Guard vessel would undoubtedly have been able to respond to such a serious provocation. Although the tonnage of the 3105 coast guard ship is only half of that of the Philippine 9701 coast guard ship, if the Philippine coast guard ship dares to directly cause a conflict through ramming and other means, then the Chinese coast guard ship 3105 is absolutely capable of relying on its own performance and configuration to effectively suppress the Philippine coast guard ship! This is the responsibility of the China Coast Guard, who has lived up to its mission, sacrificed their lives and forgot their lives, and always stuck to their posts to defend the dignity of the country. At this moment when all Chinese are immersed in the Spring Festival holiday, we express our highest respect to those coast guards who have always been on the front line and constantly protecting China's territory and territorial waters!
