Why is the aircraft carrier No. 003 a national tragedy regardless of war or peace?
The launch of the third aircraft carrier of the Chinese Navy once became the biggest news in China. There are many online comments and threads saying that this is a carnival for many military fans, and that real men and families will drink and toast on the same day. I was very, very unhappy when I saw it. I know that every generation of young people with strong blood is a quasi-military fan, because weapons contain strength and conquest, as well as the unique disobedience of young people. Because they are particularly fascinated, there will be many young people who have far surpassed me, a member of the radio interest group and model aircraft interest group, in terms of military technology and weapon performance. It is understandable that such a big weapon is showing its sword again. excited.
But why am I, an old military fan, sad? The Chinese character has a lot of connotation, let’s just say the word for “wu” in your weapon. You say that Americans are still “wu”. 31 of the 45 presidents have served in the military, among them Grant served as the commander of the Union Army and Eisenhower served as the military commander. Allied commanders, one of them ended the Civil War and the other ended the Korean War; on the contrary, what is interesting is that US President Wilson who fought in World War I, and Roosevelt who fought in World War II, never served as soldiers, and now Biden Neither did he and his long-respected boss, Barack Obama, to fight the Islamic State, and the other was still in the midst of great uncertainty over the Russia-Ukraine war. Those who do not practice martial arts often invite conquests and disasters, and even start wars. Do you find my observation interesting?
What is the Chinese character for “wu”? The structure of the text is “to stop fighting and become martial”, which is the thinking of the ancients of China. The real strategy is to stop wars, stop wars, or even not fight.
What is the strategic need for an aircraft carrier? What type of weapon is it? Is it an offensive or defensive weapon? Undoubtedly an offensive weapon. So what military strategy has the CCP been adhering to over the years? Defensive strategic thinking. Even if it stretches its hands a little bit and its fists a little harder, it is actively defending, and it doesn’t run out of the defense system. Is it a huge contradiction in the defensive ideology to create such a high-profile offensive weapon, a “big power weapon” that can theoretically project troops from a long distance? Was it a huge strategic mess?
Pink-level military fans may soon be unhappy: Isn’t the US aircraft carrier also an offensive weapon? We have aircraft carriers in the rise of the Chinese nation. If you say that it does not guard martial arts, the United States will guard it? Yes, it is true from the standpoint of stopping the war. The global strike force of the United States is unmatched and deterred by any opponent. For those dictatorships and military powers that threaten regional peace and domestic harm, which lead to chaos in the country and thus affect international security, the existence of the US aircraft carrier is real effective anti-war tool. Iraq, Iran, Syria, Libya, Serbia, Panama, Afghanistan, in addition to these, has the US aircraft carrier threatened any democratic regime, a world-recognized civilized country, and a country that respects human rights? never.
What would the world be like if those dictatorships and military power were not suppressed? Not to mention anything else, didn’t the above-mentioned countries restore a relatively stable social order after the CCP took the lead and developed into a good brother of the “Belt and Road”? It also knows that the US aircraft carrier can do business on its own. In the hands of the United States, the aircraft carrier is a weapon to stop the war.
Then why is it completely wrong in the hands of the CCP? Why do I, Jiang Feng, feel so uncomfortable? Because the CCP’s aircraft carrier, especially the third one, has the advent of a modern aircraft carrier in a sense, its two states of war and war are national tragedies: war devours the lives of young soldiers of the navy and naval aviation. The devil; and, are the gold-sucking monsters that devour the resources of national development. This topic has been blocked with grief and anger since last Friday. Today, I am afraid that many people who should drink have also drunk, and those who should wake up should also wake up. Hangovers are very harmful, and you can’t stay awake all the time. Maybe this hot topic has passed, but I’ll talk about it anyway.
The Origin of the CCP’s Sea Power Thought and the “Coffin Theory at Sea”
Let’s tell a story first. After the disintegration of the former Soviet Union, the huge military armament quickly became a common burden for Russia and its former republics, especially those that do not meet the true level of military science and technology, have not been scientifically demonstrated, and do not conform to the overall strategic thinking. Columns, aircraft carriers are generally sold out as scrap steel.
Many friends have heard that Khrushchev said that aircraft carriers are “living coffins at sea”, but they are not very clear about the reasons for his predecessor Stalin’s opposition to the construction of aircraft carriers. Stalin believed that aircraft carriers were useless in the Baltic and Black Sea Fleet, because the maneuvering space was too small; the Pacific Fleet had air bases in Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands, making aircraft carriers less necessary.
The CCP media directly stated that Khrushchev’s “coffin theory” was a pretext for the Soviet Union’s national strength far inferior to that of the United States, so it did not dare to build an aircraft carrier. That means that the CCP is now strong in national strength, and of course it can build an aircraft carrier. He will not be more rational, thinking about the thinking of Stalin, the top leader of the Communist Party.
First of all, the CCP’s idea of sea power originates from the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union’s sea power has nothing to do with free trade or the spirit of freedom at all, but the snatch of sea ports caused by the envy and jealousy of the maritime civilizations of Britain, France and the United States. Therefore, its sea power is based on the ideology of continental hegemony and the desire to control land resources, so it does not understand the true vitality of the mobility of the ocean. Therefore, even with the access to the Pacific Ocean, an aircraft carrier combat model that fully reflects the tension in the larger dimension of the ocean has not been created.
Second, Stalin’s reference to the Kuril Islands and Sakhalin’s aviation is a real problem. When the combat radius of road-based aviation is large enough, and the combat capability of the aircraft carrier’s extended aviation must depend on its own endurance and the supplement of overseas bases, Stalin could not see such a future, so it would be better not to waste money and let land-based aviation Just buy more planes and train more pilots.
In fact, the CCP is facing the same dilemma today. The aircraft carrier cannot run far without nuclear power, and there is no overseas base. It is said that the one in Djibouti, Africa, can provide support for the aircraft carrier. The CCP dug a 1,100-foot-long wharf locally, which is obviously tailor-made for the aircraft carrier. But that was under the nose of the Lemonnier military base in Djibouti, USA.
What’s interesting is the official media propaganda, you have to be careful with all the words of the CCP media, it’s tricking you. It said: Our military base in Djibouti has three protective walls, but the US military base opposite has only sandbags. So I was laughed at by the pink people. Just like the residents of the window city visiting the United States, the joke is that the United States is full of big bungalows and big rural areas. Strange, people only use sandbags in the place of war! Who are you defending against with three walls? Prevent the Djibouti government from collecting rent in advance? It’s just that the strength is put there, no one dares to move, the sandbag is enough.
Besides, how long did Djibouti rent you to the CCP for so much money? 10 years, due in 2027. How much does it cost? One hundred million dollars! At that time, Djibouti will not rent it to you because of international pressure, and the bamboo basket will be empty.
The CCP’s No. 003 aircraft carrier, plus outfitting, commissioning, and going to sea, will not be able to fight without three years. If you can use the dock for the remaining two years, you can get wet feet in Djibouti. Two photos of Xi Jinping standing on the bow Of course, if the 20th National Congress goes well and you are still alive, you can do it. America, Lemonier, by 2044. That’s why Stalin didn’t want to build an aircraft carrier. The first one is not far, and the second is that he can run far. Even if there are several overseas bases, he can’t bear to fight.
Maintaining the combat effectiveness of an aircraft carrier requires a complete and coordinated more complex, advanced, and more expensive formation and combat system, including advanced carrier-based fighter jets and early warning aircraft, more advanced surface ship venting systems and underwater anti-submarine capabilities, as well as a global early warning system .
Which one of these links is missing is what Khrushchev called a “living coffin.”
The aircraft carrier development plan was coerced by the princelings into an embarrassing development path
Why is Stalin’s words not enough to arouse the CCP’s attention and deep thinking? Even the aircraft carriers that were eliminated by the former Soviet Union have to go after them? There are two key figures here.
One is Xu Zengping, a big man from Shandong, specially recruited by the Guangzhou Military Sports Engineering Brigade, and later served as the captain of the Guangzhou Military Region basketball team. He really doesn’t have any royal family background, and his wife also plays basketball and belongs to the national team. In the 1980s, he went to the sea early and started trading. He also used some connections from the Guangzhou Military Region to do some import business of mechanical and electrical products. Friends who have gone through that era know that car smuggling has become an early capital accumulation. Xu Zengping was the direct operator of the CCP’s purchase of the Varyag from Ukraine.
Another key figure is He Pengfei, the son of He Long, the deputy commander of the navy and one of the former ten major marshals of the CCP. I just mentioned the disintegration of the Soviet Union, and the sale of aircraft carriers that do not conform to the strategic thinking that cannot be afforded to the outside world is really like scrap metal. South Korea’s Daewoo Group bought two, and later one was bought by China, and later became the Minsk aircraft carrier exhibition hall in Shenzhen Sea World.
The Ukrainian Varyag that Xu Zengping was eyeing, he himself went to Ukraine to drink with the director of the naval base with enthusiasm. It turned out that according to the Korean business idea, it was estimated that several million dollars could be won. The more he drinks, the more he drinks. I’m happy, after drinking, people stretch out their fingers, 20 million! Xu Zengping is stupid, how come Ukraine is also cooked! Help He Pengfei. How could Xu Zengping have done such a big business alone? It’s not just about money, because after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the United States and NATO have been very concerned about nuclear proliferation and the loss of major military equipment. Ukraine bought aircraft carriers and sold them as scrap iron. There are also rules. In addition to a bunch of commercial conditions, the necessary conditions for purchasing can not be arranged by the state, but the state must agree to set up the project; the port of the purchasing country must issue a license in advance, and it cannot drift on the high seas at that time. Who has to go.
He Pengfei, as the deputy commander of the navy, guaranteed the ticket. How could He Pengfei, a deputy commander of the navy, make a guarantee? Is he rich? Does he have the power to approve the project? nothing. He Pengfei himself was the head of the equipment department of the General Staff. He is very aware of the oil and water in arms procurement. He is a typical princeling. His father, He Long, has been the director of the National Sports Commission for a long time. The starting conditions are met.
Now Xu Zengping is about to go bankrupt, what should I do? He Pengfei found Ma Weihua, the later founder of China Merchants Bank, the so-called Godfather of China Merchants Bank, who was then the president of the People’s Bank of Hainan Province. However, his subordinates in Hainan’s financial sector are terrible. In addition, what should the central government do if Hainan Province has made this money? Ma Weihua knew very well that He Pengfei’s rhythm of the princelings was a “great cause that benefits the country and the people”. Then he peeled the oranges for you and said, “You also have a share.” Finally, the white wolf took the money. Walk.
Ma Weihua had his own way, and he was fine, so he found Shao Chun, chairman of Huaxia Securities, and Huaxia Securities started a financing company to get the money. At that time, there were many smugglers in Huizhou and land dealers in Shenzhen. Money, there is no upper-level relationship, when I say that I want to buy an aircraft carrier for the country, I am very excited. The 20 million US dollars that Xu Zengping drank from a meal of baijiu has gone.
Later, there was a robbery by Turkey, and then He Pengfei used his connections. Isn’t He Long guilty of persecuting Zhou Enlai during the “Cultural Revolution”? Strait released.
But what I want to tell you is the other side of the story. He Pengfei has no money, and in fact, he has not set up a project. Varyag has been controversial since the beginning. The country does not have a top-level design at all. The opinion of the vast majority of people is that an aircraft carrier is not needed, because it is necessary to take a peaceful route, not to mention the confrontation between China and the United States today, and there is no military expert to introduce the military thinking embodied by the aircraft carrier in detail. What does the country need? The comprehensive national strength of the United States to maintain the existence of this behemoth is not only money, but also talent reserves, national defense scientific and technological strength, naval and air force equipment upgrades, and the formulation of national strategies of the United States, Europe, Russia, Japan and other countries. There is no such thing at all.
Finally, using the daughter of the old army chief Liu Huaqing to do the work, let Liu Huaqing come forward to finalize the navy to pay for the purchase of the Varyag. Why does Liu Huaqing speak with weight? He was forced by Deng Xiaoping to Jiang Zemin in charge of the work of the Military Commission, and he was equivalent to a “supervising team”. Legend has it that Liu Huaqing’s sentence “China has no aircraft carrier, I will not rest my eyes when I die.” Think about how much pressure was placed on the supreme power holder at that time. Therefore, in Cantonese, it is called “killing a dog and bargaining,” and he brought Varyangela back and asked the central government to admit it. This is the moment when the dust settles on the Liaoning.
Xu Zengping finally received 120 million Hong Kong dollars from the CCP’s purchase funds. Although he did not make any money, from a legal point of view, the title certificate of the Liaoning was owned by Xu Zengping. Of course, the CCP regime firmly denies this. Although the CCP Central Committee has suffered a dumb loss, the party’s face cannot be lost. Therefore, the propaganda of “aircraft carrier raises our country’s prestige” began to be planned, a top-level national strategic plan with no top-level design at all. The aircraft carrier development plan that meets the development needs of the Chinese nation has been coerced into an embarrassing development path by the princelings.
Of course there is a sequel. In 1999, the Xiamen Yuanhua Lai Changxing incident broke out, involving Liu Huaqing’s daughter, Jiang Zemin took full revenge on Liu Huaqing’s supervision of the war; Zhu Rongji also began to clean up the forced establishment of the project and the forced state funding. Zhu Rongji said: For a securities company to buy an aircraft carrier, he must personally benefit. 10% is an international practice. Then a joint investigation team of 6 ministries and commissions was dispatched to investigate for a while. At that time, they also approved a 16-character instruction: “Be bold, investigate and deal with it seriously, and treat the country with respect and emulation.”
He Pengfei later died. His secretary, Song Xue, who used to be the deputy minister of the armament department and the deputy chief of staff of the navy, was arrested in 2021. He is the last pusher of the CCP’s aircraft carrier plan, including the establishment and construction of the current 003 Fujian ship. facilitate.
The fundamental flaw of the No. 003 Fujian ship; the aircraft carrier is a huge deformed child of the CCP
This is the story I want to tell my friends, especially the many pinks who are excited to drink because of the new aircraft carrier. I don’t want to continue discussing electromagnetic catapults with you. Your pursuit of military technology is not wrong, but remember to analyze, the CCP media said that the US Ford’s electromagnetic catapult had so many spray points, it was still based on powerful nuclear power. On the basis of energy; the conventional power of the CCP’s aircraft carrier has to take care of the rotation of the radar, the elevator, and the rotation of the large propeller. The power source of electromagnetic ejection must be very insufficient. This is fundamentally hard. hurt.
And don’t say that the United States is the original of the technology, you are an imitator, don’t say that the United States has been adjusting in practice and it has taken several years, you have never used technology and equipment, a plagiarist, dare to say You’ve already achieved technological transcendence over the United States, so you’re still excited to drink? Think about it, if the next aircraft carrier really achieves nuclear power, Ma Weiming’s electromagnetic catapult will not be able to blast the J-35 to the moon all at once?
Why am I sad? Because the families you are talking about drinking include the families of the pilots of the Naval Air Force who are going to board the ship? How many machine crashes will the instability of electromagnetic technology cause? Under the CCP’s propaganda system, they may always be unknown martyrs, insignificant victims of the “dream of great power rejuvenation”.
You can judge the specific technical issues by yourself. I don’t want to discuss with you about whose aircraft carrier is the best. I just want to tell you that the aircraft carrier is not what our nation wants, or even what the Chinese government originally wanted. It is a huge deformed child. , and because of the CCP’s system, it has to continue to carry the absurdity to the end, a typical historical record.
The No. 003 Fujian aircraft carrier was launched. Maybe we should be more concerned about the fate of another ship. Its name is “Jumbo Seafood Square”. It is a seafood restaurant that appeared on the edge of Hong Kong Bay in 1976. witness.
Last week, it left Hong Kong, which has never been colonized by the “National Security Law” and was governed by “patriots”, and went to Southeast Asia to find a new foothold. However, because of the storm, it sank in the South China Sea. Coincidentally, the same waters witnessed the CCP-backed Viet Cong occupied South Vietnam and the difficult journey of hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese refugees, including overseas Chinese, escaping overseas. Many of them went to Hong Kong, which has always been free and tolerant.
