Background and overview

Two Chinese conflicts

In China during the Second World War, the National Party Army led by Chiang Kai-shek and the Communist Party Army led by Mao Zedong jointly fought with the Japanese army as a “country co-operation”, but after the Japanese surrender, a civil war situation that was controversial over the administration It became.
After that, the KMT forces were gradually under pressure, defeated in the civil war, abandoned the continent and fled to Taiwan. In October 1949, at the Tiananmen in Beijing, the Communist Party led by Mao Zedong declared the formation of the People's Republic of China (hereinafter China), and at the same time the Chiang Kai-shek National Party also established the People's Republic of China (hereinafter Taiwan).
Since then, there have been two Chinas. However, the powerhouse and China, who are also members of the United Nations Security Commission, did not accept “two China” as Taiwan was part of China, but began to encourage the world to sever diplomatic relations with Taiwan. . Initially, the KMT government planned a counter-attack operation on the continent based in Taiwan, but this clever foreign policy of the Communist Party government cut off diplomatic relations from many countries, and the United Nations was the only country in China. It came to admit that it was a government, and now I had to give up a counter-attack operation that could be taken as “invasion”.
[One Chinese Communist Party consistently unifies China with armed forces, that is, does not deny the possibility of armed invasion against Taiwan until now. In fact, in August 1958, as a stepping stone for the invasion of Taiwan, a large-scale military action was undertaken in order to occupy Kinmen Island, where Taiwan was fortified as a base on the continental coast. By the way, former Japanese military officers called "Paidan" were active at this time, but they moved from occupied Japan to Taiwan in the defeat, and the military advisory team for the Taiwan army for the next 20 years Contributed as.
After that, until 1968, the Chinese troops continued to bombard Kinmon Island and the Maso Archipelago, another Taiwanese base on the continental coast. In 1995, he continued to intimidate Taiwan by repeatedly performing extensive landing exercises and ballistic missile launch experiments with a view to landing in Taiwan.

Possible invasion of Taiwan

At present, the realistic view is that the Chinese military does not have enough ships to invade and land in Taiwan.
However, the People's Liberation Army is pursuing rapid modernization, and its military expenditure has increased significantly. It is also said that actual military spending is three times the published military spending. Also, the use of “private company” vessels and aircraft should significantly improve landing logistics. In other words, aside from politics and diplomacy, from a technical perspective, the possibility of an invasion of Taiwan cannot be denied.
Furthermore, the fact that Kinmon Island, which once played the role of a breakwater, has been converted into a tourist destination, and the fact that the garrison has shrunk from 100,000 people at the time of the invasion to 10,000 people is also anxious. It has become.
Taiwan has gained rapid economic power, especially since the 1980s, and has been recognized as a democratic country with the president elected democratically. For this reason, even if formal diplomatic relations with the Taiwan government are cut off, many countries maintain economic relations and maintain informal relations, and in fact, as a nation in many countries. In the event of a war, the UN is more likely to support Taiwan than its permanent member, China.
In contrast, China oppressed the people seeking peaceful discussions in the Tiananmen incident in June 1989, and conducted rigorous military exercises off Taiwan before the 1996 presidential election in Taiwan. Having a non-democratic image all over the world, he continues to make big points.

Unstable elements in China

Although Taiwan has a small population and land, per capita GDP has already reached the level of developed countries.
China has also grown rapidly with an annual GDP growth rate of over 10% since the 1990s, but when combined with industrial production statistics from each province, China has somehow surpassed China's overall GDP, including personal consumption. Regardless of the statistics, even the central leadership of the party has not been able to accurately grasp its own economic situation. In order to do business smoothly, bribes and connections to Communist Party leaders are always necessary.
In addition, the income gap between Primorye and inland is widening due to the rapid distortion of high growth. In China, self-evident migration is forbidden in Japan, but the number of people who come to work from the inland to Primorye without permission for living, the so-called `` blind flow '' has increased rapidly, the urban population has expanded, infrastructure Maintenance cannot keep up. Furthermore, not only income disparities between rural and urban areas, but also unreasonable taxes are collected in rural areas where vague grounds are collected, which has led to a surge in armed uprising and troubles by farmers in rural areas.
In addition, there are many foreigners in urban areas, and as much information from other countries can be freely obtained, criticism of the current Communist Party administration is gradually increasing.

Defend Kinmen Island assault on China Taiwan

Scenario status settings

The Chinese People's Liberation Army called large exercises on the Taiwan Strait coast as exercises, and both the Tokai and Yellow Sea fleets were aiming for the strait. Has been attacked by. The Taiwan government, on the other hand, declared complete independence from China and became a full war.
The background to this war is the problems caused by the economic stagnation in China. China has been advocated as “the world factory” and “the 21st century is China's era”, but as the WTO joins, the yuan rate has been optimized and exports have fallen, resulting in a huge number of unemployed people in state-owned enterprises Has become apparent. Many farmers were unemployed because they could not compete with imported crops in large granaries such as the United States and Canada. In addition, security has deteriorated in urban areas due to an increase in the number of farmers who illegally migrated to large-income urban areas and the rapid increase in the number of unemployed due to excessive competition. Unplanned industrialization has caused droughts and air pollution in the Yellow River and the Yangtze River (Yangzi River), and factory operation, especially in industries such as semiconductors and steel that require a large amount of water, the utilization rate has dropped dramatically. .
On the other hand, with the expansion of domestic consumption, imports of raw materials and energy increased, and the shortage of foreign currency became serious. Non-performing loans of state-owned companies that have been concealed have been revealed one after another.
Due to the economic downturn, income disparities between Primorye and other regions, which had been regarded as a problem for some time, began to be accused, and demonstrations and riots against the Communist Party's inadequacy were taking place in various places. Taking advantage of this opportunity, terrorism against the Communist Party government has also increased in autonomous regions of ethnic minorities such as Uyghur Autonomous Region.
[To avoid this sense of blockage and criticism of the central government, the Communist Party planned an invasion operation in Taiwan to pass the internal affairs issue outside and tighten the country.
Kinmonjima and Maso Archipelago have been fortified for many years, and in the 1950s there was a history of repelling Chinese landing attacks, and Taiwan military authorities are confident in defending these coastal islands.
However, the number of guards on both islands was drastically reduced compared to that time. At one time, the garrison, which counted 100,000 people on Kinmon Island alone, is now less than one fifth. In addition, the PLA's military has greatly improved the performance of its weapons due to the modernization of equipment in recent years, and its destructive power and range have greatly increased. In addition, there are few aircraft such as Su-30, but the latest operational aircraft is available. In addition, the landing capacity has improved dramatically.
Although the Taiwanese army has greatly surpassed in terms of aircraft performance and pilot training, in order to secure air control over both islands on the continental coast, it is necessary to advance into the continent, and the flight time is limited . In fact, the PLA has mobilized even old-fashioned aircraft with short legs and launched saturation attacks. Many military analysts believe that the fall of Kinmen Island and the Maso Archipelago, which were exposed to a violent Chinese attack, is a matter of time.
Currently, the US opposition party is demanding the president to support Taiwan, but the US is exhausted in the war against terrorism with Al-Qaeda, and the State Department said, “I want to watch the situation change. But if China uses nuclear weapons, "The US will take appropriate measures accordingly."

From a reasonable perspective, air and naval vessels should be used to support Kinmon Island rather than the Maso Islands. Anyway, if Kinmen Island falls, it will be easy to invade the strategic base, Penghu Islands, with Taiwan's main island. For this reason, the key to victory is to delay the fall of Kinmonjima as much as possible even if it falls into a state where Kinmonjima cannot hold. In fact, some Chinese troops have landed and secured a beachhead, but the first priority is to eliminate it.
If you can secure air control over Kinmon Island and Taiwan Strait, you can send Airborne and Marine Corps as reinforcements. However, since China will try to secure the right to control the Nankai Fleet and Tokai Fleet, it is necessary to strike these fleets thoroughly before reinforcement.
It is important to make good use of the Maiko Port in the Lake Biwa Islands located between Kinmen Island and Taiwan Main Island as a relay point.

China Taiwan assault and Taiwan main island defense battle

Scenario status settings

The Chinese army occupies Kinmen Island, the Maso Archipelago, and the Lake Biwa Islands, and built a bridgehead on the coast of Kibun on the main island of Taiwan. Also, large and small transport ships are dispatching reinforcements and supplies.
[It was the US government that was initially expecting the defense capabilities of the Taiwan army. The US government first went through diplomatic procedures and demanded a ceasefire within 24 hours against China, followed by a retreat from Taiwan territory within 78 hours.
However, the Chinese army that had built a foothold on the main island of Taiwan would not be fooled, and the US government had to issue a declaration of war against the Chinese government. The US government also announced that if the Chinese army used nuclear weapons, the US military would immediately retaliate nuclear weapons. Proposed.
The US military has already started moving Okinawan and Air Force units. However, if China provides Okinawa as a logistical support base, the Japanese government will be deemed to have automatically entered Japan. If Okinawa is attacked, negative public opinion about the survival of the US military base may even lead to the complete withdrawal of the US military from Japan. At the request of the Japanese government, assuming the worst situation, the White House made a political decision to avoid direct operations from Okinawa. As a result, US Air Force units and headquarters were forced to move to bases in northern Taiwan.
The 7th Fleet also departed Yokosuka base early and rushed to the main island of Taiwan. The 7th Fleet intends to regain control over the Taiwan Strait while playing mainly in the northern Taiwan area.

About maps

This is a defense battle on the main island of Taiwan, and not only the Taiwan Strait but also the waters and islands around the main island of Taiwan will be the key to victory.
It is also important to destroy enemy units that landed directly, but it is also efficient to hit enemy reinforcements and supplies while moving on the sea. In fact, the Taiwanese army expects to destroy most of it when it is aimed at the main island landing by the Chinese army.
In this scenario, the US Army will be added to the Taiwan side, but the destructive power of the US Army will be surprised again and you will feel that you are good with your friends.
