Information II
The explosion of this electromagnetic pulse weapon immediately confused the attacking PLA -- although the Taiwanese defenders in Nantou City served as bait. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 After losing contact with the front-line troops, the General Command received even more chilling news: according to satellite images, a large number of enemy reinforcements were moving along the Jiji Line Railway from the Muddy Water Railway Station to Nantou City. Everyone in the headquarters understands that once these reinforcements arrive in Nantou City, the consequences will be unimaginable!
……
They still insisted on holding off the enemy for four hours, providing valuable time for the troops in the city of Nantou to recover. It is simply impossible to imagine how a modern army can do this under conditions where all electronic equipment is almost completely destroyed, communications cannot be guaranteed, and there is a huge disparity in strength. It's nothing short of a miracle.
……
Until now, we still have no clue where that EMP weapon came from. The level of military technology of the Taiwanese determines that this weapon was certainly not manufactured by them themselves, so where did it come from? Some scholars believe that it was the assistance of the Americans, while others believe that it may be the support of the Europeans, and some even say that this weapon is very likely to have been made by the Japanese, who had already secretly mastered nuclear technology. Unfortunately, most of the people we know of who could have known about it have already died in the war, and the rest are either missing or have applied for political asylum abroad, and the matter will surely remain an open question.

The Communist Party's state media and publications shamelessly trumpeted the role of this EMP weapon in combat. They claim that this weapon is the main reason for the defeat of the PLA, but completely ignore the effect of their actions on the hatred of the Taiwanese people. Anyone with a mind should understand that this is not possible. How can Taiwan master the technology of manufacturing electromagnetic pulse weapons? If electromagnetic pulse weapons exist, how can they have such small casualties compared with the losses of the Taiwanese? This is simply nonsense.
The new classes in Beijing have come up with this madness to cover up their defeats. For such a regime, our government is still sitting back and watching the Chinese continue their actions. These bureaucrats are truly a shame on us.
