Here, Duke is in full swing developing both domestic and export products, and is very busy.

On the other hand, in the face of the attacks and provocations encountered by the large-scale oil and gas development in the South China Sea, the military suddenly announced that the PLA would hold a large-scale maritime exercise in the South China Sea "Determination-2019" and set up a high-standard Nansha military base at the same time.

Immediately after the diplomatic spokesman's strong and high-profile demand that all relevant parties in the South China Sea immediately stop infringing on China's interests in the Nansha Islands, as well as provoking and interfering with China's oil and gas development in the South China Sea, otherwise the PLA will take decisive action to solve the problem.

The People's Liberation Army (PLA) is about to use force, and the Filipino maid and the representative of the Vietnamese monkey to the UN General Assembly, who have the most frequent and minor activities in Nansha, submitted relevant proposals to the UN General Assembly overnight, asking the UN General Assembly to stop China's unilateral military action from taking the risk and asking the international community to take necessary peacekeeping actions in the South China Sea.

Not surprisingly, their proposal received strong support from the Yankees and imps and was included in the scope of discussion in the Security Council, but due to the resolute opposition of the Chinese representative to the UN General Assembly and the use of veto power, the proposal did not enter the UN General Assembly's voting scope.

However, what is intriguing is that most of the European countries except the British have remained silent about this, and as a latecomer to the oil interests in the South China Sea, China's large-scale development of the South China Sea has also benefited major European countries in this large-scale construction, because such a large-scale construction has to be completed within a year, and it is obviously a bit difficult to rely on domestic strength alone.

In the first batch of construction and exploration orders announced by the Chinese side, major European companies have won a lot of shares, and for Europe, which is in an average economic situation, getting tens of billions of dollars in orders is obviously much more important than shouting slogans.

Europeans will not forget that during the Sino-European trade war, the United States and Japan stood by and watched, so that the European side was unable to do anything and finally lost both sides and compromised.

Without any substantial support at the United Nations, the countries of the South China Sea were dumbfounded. Originally, they thought that the Chinese side was talking about the South China Sea and would not really use force to solve the problem, but under the guidance of this kind of thinking, of course, the more Nansha occupied, the greater the advantage of future negotiations, and gradually, after occupying a large amount of territory, even the Chinese side's proposal to shelve disputes and jointly develop ignored it, thinking that the Chinese side would not do anything to them.

Although China's resolute takeover of the Diaoyutai frightened these monkeys for a while, they saw that China did not take any military action in the future, and their hearts slowly put it back, and after the two American aircraft carrier formations were stationed in Subic Bay, they even thought that it was time for the internationalization of the South China Sea issue, and they even began to attract large-scale investment and invite American capital to develop oil in the South China Sea.

It's just that their steps are much slower than those of China, and China has actually invested trillions of dollars in development, so these monkeys have begun to constantly friction and provocation to obstruct China's rational development and utilization.

However, when China's two huge aircraft carrier formations were cruising the Nansha Islands, the South China Sea countries that had invaded the Nansha Islands began to jump, but no one had the courage to jump out and say ruthlessly that they would fight a decisive battle with the PLA.

Not to mention that they alone cannot fight, even if they add up. What's more, now they are still scattered in the military, and it is impossible for them to risk being crippled and letting their neighbors pick up the cheap. Therefore, it is no problem to sneak around and make some small moves, but it is a matter of blatantly standing in front of the PLA and hitting a stone with an egg.

Amid verbal protests from the South China Sea countries, the PLA's mixed fleet participating in the "Determination-2009" exercise set sail for Nansha with little disruption and prepared to carry out the scheduled combat mission.

The commander of the U.S. Task Force in the Field, George Brown, who has been closely watching. Rear Admiral Bridge, through reconnaissance satellites and Global Hawk, discovered that there were two large amphibious landing ships accompanying the PLA fleet in the Nansha Islands, which indicated that the Chinese really had the tendency to sweep the Nansha Islands.

The main anti-aircraft anti-submarine ships that follow the two aircraft carriers of the PLA are 2 Modern-class destroyers, 3 052D destroyers and 2 Kidd-class destroyers, as well as 4 054A missile frigates.

This force is of course an overwhelming superior force for the countries of the South China Sea, but it is not enough for the US military fleet stationed in the Philippines, so when Bridge received this reconnaissance result, he asked the country to lead the fleet to attack, on the one hand, to observe the exercises of the PLA aircraft carriers Chongqing and Tianjin aircraft carriers at close range, and to understand the strength of the PLA Navy; On the other hand, when the Philippines and Vietnam are attacked, they are preparing to see if they are waiting for an opportunity to carry out a devastating blow to the PLA's aircraft carrier group to prevent China from recovering the South China Sea and destroying the main force of the PLA Navy.

Rear Admiral Bridge now has in his hands a task force composed of two carrier strike groups, the USS John Stennis and the USS Ronald Reagan, nearly 100 attack F/A-18E/F Super Hornet fighters of 8 squadrons of 2 carrier-based air wings, more than 70 other auxiliary combat aircraft, 2 sea destroyer escorts, 8 large Aegis destroyers and cruisers, and 4 nuclear-powered attack submarines. All of them far surpassed the PLA's Chongqing and Tianjin aircraft carrier formations.

Far from Chinese mainland, the air power that the PLA can use now is only 60 J-11Cs of the two air regiments on Taiping Road and Dongxing Island, in addition to the 60 or so carrier-based J-15 Flying Shark fighters on the aircraft carrier, and Rear Admiral Bridge has two squadrons of F-35 fighters as the backing. The only thing to worry about is the elusive submarines of the PLA.

Seeing the information sent back by Rear Admiral Bridge, this balance of power made the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the three armed forces of the US military, Sham Grant, and Secretary of Defense Carter Karen see an opportunity, and they authorized Rear Admiral Bridge, if he felt sure, to consider launching a decisive attack to deal a devastating blow to the PLA task force.
