Chapter 601: Military Exchanges on
Of course, in order to show sincerity, the military specially invited Taiwan military figures to lead a team to visit the main equipment of the PLA, and more generously said that in addition to taking the initiative to display the main equipment, the military said that it could also meet the observation of any designated equipment temporarily proposed by the Taiwan side, except for the nuclear arsenal, of course.
This extremely rare gesture has made the Taiwan side completely unsure of the mainland's intentions. After watching the Indo-Pakistani war, they had an extremely strong interest in the other side, but the information obtained from secret channels was quite lacking, so that the Taiwan side could only estimate the results of the India-Pakistan confrontation, and even so, the result of the speculation was enough to make the Taiwan military frightened, that is, with the current strength of the Taiwan army, even if it dealt with the Pakistani army, there was no chance of winning, and the real confrontation between the two armies, the Taiwan military would not do better than the A-3 military, because from the perspective of combat power, the F-16A of the Taiwan military / The B modification fighter is far inferior to the SU-30MKI and Rafale fighters of Asan.
This is an extremely shocking conclusion, because according to known intelligence, the strength of the Continental Army is at least several times that of the Pakistani army, and although it is scattered due to its vast territory, the strength that can be concentrated on the front line of Taiwan Island is by no means comparable to that of the current Taiwan military, so they urgently asked the United States to purchase new F-35 fighters.
It is a pity that Taiwan is not the only one with a sense of crisis, but the entire Northeast Asian countries and regions that are hostile to the mainland are feeling heavy pressure.
Now, the other party actually invited the Taiwan side to find out, is this a threat or a show-off?
Judging from the opinions of the military on Taiwan Island, this is a good opportunity that is rare in the ages, and no matter what the other side of the strait may do, it is absolutely impossible to miss it, and it is always a good thing to have more intelligence information.
Because when the other side proposed transparency, it did not ask the Taiwan side to do this reciprocal thing, which means that this observation can be completely unseemly. As for whether the other side asked the Taiwan side to give the truth, now that they have not taken the initiative to put it forward in the exchange plan, now everyone should pretend to be deaf and dumb, anyway, this kind of thing is liar, and it is not the first time that the Taiwan side has done it, and it can get some practical things, even if it is cheeky in their pockets.
When formulating the corresponding action plan, the General Staff Department had long taken into account these reactions of the Taiwan side, and this was a thorough conspiracy, and the General Staff Staff, who had insight into the thoughts of the Taiwan side, certainly knew that this was not a temptation that the Taiwan side could refuse at all, so when Taiwan was secretly discussing countermeasures for this matter for several days, the top military leaders of the mainland were not in a hurry at all.
Sure enough, after waiting for about a week, the Taiwan side shyly replied that it was willing to send a visiting group to the mainland for sightseeing, and the mainland side could be responsible for the travel arrangements.
This kind of petty approach really inherits the tradition of the Taiwan side, and also makes enough superficial efforts for the Taiwan side to play tricks in the future. Hopefully they can keep a good mood. Chief One said with some sarcasm. After so many years, he still acts like a petty family. ”
When the US side received this news, it was also quite puzzled by the mainland's approach, but the CIA felt that this was a good opportunity to understand the strength of the Continental Army, so the director of the CIA bureau personally contacted the personnel stationed in the United States on Taiwan Island and asked that the delegation be mixed with CIA personnel to enter the delegation.
However, this time the Taiwanese flatly rejected the CIA's request, although the Taiwanese did a little bit of petty to prevent the other side from making any difficult requests to refuse in the future, but they blatantly mixed sand into it, which is a bit shameless, really when the mainland side is a fool, and the national security and military intelligence systems are vegetarians?
Such an opportunity is inherently very difficult, how can the people of Taiwan allow the CIA to stir up the situation when their own interests are not guaranteed, and it is not a big deal to share the information they get with the CIA.
Soon, a delegation of more than 50 people, including elites of the navy, army, and air force on Taiwan Island, flew to the mainland to observe the mainland's main battle equipment.
Qiu Xinzhong, the head of the regiment led by the Taiwan side, is a retired major general of the Air Force, and although his rank is not too high, he has a wide range of knowledge and contacts, and is an extremely active figure in Taiwan's military commentary. Being able to observe the main battle equipment of the Continental Army up close is something he has been longing for for a long time, so he is looking forward to this trip to the mainland.
Sure enough, the mainland side did not hide this time, but first took them on a tour of the mountains and rivers, but directly sent them to the depths of the grassland; since it had only been the Chinese New Year for a short time, it was still white for hundreds of miles here, and it looked particularly barren and cold; since the mainland had not notified the delegation of the detailed schedule in advance, the members of the Taiwan delegation who were accustomed to living in warm places were obviously a little caught off guard in the face of this situation.
As soon as he got out of the car, he was blown by the cold as a knife in the north, and he felt that the down jackets on his body were obviously a little thin, and seeing that these members of the Taiwan delegation were shivering a little from the car to the base room, Senior Colonel Chen Yifei, the mainland reception representative, smiled slightly, and said to Qiu Xinzhong, "Commander Qiu, there will be some field work later, and we have some training uniforms suitable for the cold climate in the north, if you don't mind, you can change them into for the members of the group." ”
careless, Qiu Xinzhong heard Chen Yifei say this, and sighed secretly in his heart, he didn't expect to be on the issue of clothes. However, in the current situation, it is obviously unreasonable to reject the other party's kindness.
"Thank you, Colonel Chen, this matter is our negligence, we didn't expect to come to such a cold place in advance" Qiu Xinzhong said with a smile, although he said it politely, Chen Yifei still heard that he was obviously a little dissatisfied. But this is really not what the mainland did on purpose, it's just a set of clothes, and Taiwan Island is used to treating people with a small family, and Chen Yifei doesn't bother to explain.
Although the higher-level leaders did not say anything at this reception, they only stressed that in addition to showing the other side our strongest strength, he also particularly emphasized that we should try our best to let the Taiwan delegation recognize our true strength, so any request made by them that could deepen this understanding can be considered and met.
