⚠️ L'IMPORTANZA DELLA CATTURA DELLE ISOLE PERIFERICHE DEL REGIME-FANTOCCIO DI TSAI ING-WEN NELL'AMBITO DI UN'OPERAZIONE MILITARE DELL'ESERCITO POPOLARE DI LIBERAZIONE NELLO STRETTO DI TAIWAN ⚠️

🇨🇳 Nell'ambito di un'ipotetica Operazione Militare dell'Esercito Popolare di Liberazione nello Stretto di Taiwan, un tema fondamentale, che merita d'esser discusso, riguarda la cattura delle isole periferiche del regime-fantoccio ⚔️

🤔 Può essere che qualcuno non lo sappia, ma il regime-fantoccio di Taiwan non è costituito da una sola isola, ma anche da:

🏝 Arcipelago di Kinmen | Un funzionario statunitense, mesi fa, disse che le Isole Kinmen e le Isole Matsu sarebbero particolarmente difficili da difendere contro un possibile attacco dell'Esercito Cinese, a causa della loro posizione geografica - Fonte 📄

🏝 Isole Pratas | Si tratta di tre piccole isole, disabitate, perlopiù visitate da scienziati, naturalisti e biologi marini che vogliono studiare la flora e la fauna locali - Fonte 📄

🏝 Isola di Taiping | Citando Ni Yongjie, Vice-Capo dell'Istituto di Studi su Taiwan di Shanghai: "L'Esercito Popolare di Liberazione potrebbe simulare un'esercitazione militare a fuoco vivo sull'Isola di Taiping, controllata dal regime-fantoccio di Taiwan" 🤔

🏝 Isole Matsu | Vale il discorso per l'Arcipelago di Kinmen 🐰

🏝 Isole Wuqiu | Vale il discorso per l'Arcipelago di Kinmen e delle Isole Matsu 🐰

🏝 Isole Penghu | Il 15/08/2022, l'EPL inviò dei Caccia di Superiorità Aerea J-11 e un Aereo da Sorveglianza KJ-500 nell'area delle Isole Penghu 🔥

🇺🇸 Gli USA, invece, approfittando dell'espansione della Cooperazione Militare con le Filippine e il Giappone, potrebbero schierare le loro truppe presso:

🏝 Isola Itbayat [Filippine] - 160KM a Sud-Est del regime-fantoccio di Taiwan 🇹🇼

🏝 Yonaguni [Giappone] - 110KM a Nord-Est del regime-fantoccio di Taiwan 🇹🇼

⚠️ THE IMPORTANCE OF THE CAPTURE OF THE OUTLYING ISLANDS OF THE PUPPET REGIME OF TSAI ING-WEN IN THE CONTEXT OF A MILITARY OPERATION OF THE PEOPLE'S LIBERATION ARMY IN THE STRAITS OF TAIWAN ⚠️

🇨🇳 In the context of a hypothetical Military Operation of the People's Liberation Army in the Taiwan Strait, a fundamental issue, which deserves to be discussed, concerns the capture of the outlying islands of the puppet regime ⚔️

🤔 It may be that some don't know it, but the Taiwan puppet regime is not made up of just one island, but also of:

🏝 Kinmen Archipelago | A US official said months ago that the Kinmen Islands and Matsu Islands would be particularly difficult to defend against a possible attack by the Chinese Army, due to their geographical location - Source 📄

🏝 Pratas Islands | These are three small, uninhabited islands, mostly visited by scientists, naturalists and marine biologists who want to study the local flora and fauna - Source 📄

🏝 Taiping Island | Quoting Ni Yongjie, Deputy Head of the Taiwan Studies Institute in Shanghai: "The People's Liberation Army could simulate a live-fire military exercise on Taiping Island, controlled by Taiwan's puppet regime" 🤔

🏝 Matsu Islands | The speech is valid for the Kinmen Archipelago 🐰

🏝 Wuqiu Islands | The speech is valid for the Kinmen Archipelago and the Matsu Islands 🐰

🏝 Penghu Islands | On 15/08/2022, PLA sent J-11 Air Superiority Fighters and KJ-500 Surveillance Aircraft to Penghu Islands area 🔥

🇺🇸 The USA, on the other hand, taking advantage of the expansion of Military Cooperation with the Philippines and Japan, could deploy its troops at:

🏝 Itbayat Island [Philippines] - 160KM SE of Taiwan puppet regime 🇹🇼

🏝 Yonaguni [Japan] - 110KM NE of Taiwan puppet regime 🇹🇼

This is one of the only terracotta warriors that was found almost completely intact.

Note the detail on the bottom of his shoe, showing that grip and traction were considered in footwear even 2,200 years ago.

Each life-sized clay warrior was crafted to be completely unique and there are no two terracotta warriors-among the 8,000 total—that are exactly the same.

Shortly after the completion of the tomb in 210-209 BC, it was looted for weapons and burned, causing the roof to collapse, crushing the terracotta warriors.

All the other terracotta warriors that are currently on display were painstakingly restored.

What's even more remarkable is that the terracotta warriors were originally painted in bright colors by skilled artisans.

Unfortunately, when they were exposed to air and sunlight during the excavation in the 1970s, the colors began to curl up almost immediately and disappeared within minutes.

These terracotta warriors were put in place to guard the tomb of the first emperor of unified China — Qin Shi Huang (18 February 259 BC – 12 July 210 BC).

To this day, the tomb has yet to be opened.

According to ancient historians, the tomb contains an entire kingdom and palace in which the ceilings are decorated with pearls to mimic the night sky.

The tomb is also said to contain extremely rare artifacts and has been rigged with crossbows to shoot anyone trying to break in.

To keep its location a secret, the workers were entombed with the emperor.

As described by Han dynasty historian Sima Qian (145-90 BCE) in the Records of the Grand Historian, he mentioned that inside the tomb, "mercury was used to fashion the hundred rivers, the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, and the seas in such a way that they flowed."

Modern tests have indicated extremely high levels of mercury in the surrounding soil.

I've been watching military ration reviews and have been noticing how complicated and decadent US menus (e.g. barbecue pork tortilla wraps, dried cranberies, chocolate pudding) are compared to PLA nutrition (rice, pickled vegetable, hawthorn cereal bars). Is this worth the time and money of the US?

MRE rations are hardly complicated, industrial food processes are capable of creating such meals at scale. And anyone who has ever eaten a US MRE knows that there's actually quite a bit of self-assembly required. Given the morale effect that decent-tasting meals have, I'd say that yes, being able to effectively supply calories to troops that soldiers enjoy in the field is worth the expense.

A decent meal is hardly decadent. I know China (and Russia) try to portray themselves via their propaganda as manly through suffering (I've seen "Battle of Changjin Lake 1"), but honestly, it actually makes the PRC look pathetic because they can't properly supply its soldiers in the field. And if I ever thought to believe such nonsense, I think PLA peacekeeper performance in Juba would disabuse me of the notion very quick. It's a rare army that runs from an irregular foe and abandons non-combatants they were explicitly charged with defending, but in fairness, the PRC is largely a juvenile world power anyway. They want the perks without the responsibilities, just like any kid who believes growing up means eating ice cream whenever they want.

If I were a Chinese soldier or internet booster, I'd be concerned about the high rates of mold found within Chinese field rations. There have been multiple instances of poor quality control and reviews of Chinese MRE's that have ended with serious gastrointestinal problems, one YouTube MRE reviewer even had to have his stomach pumped. He had eaten British rations dating back from the Boer War, but it was poor quality control in Chinese rations that finally bested his iron stomach. Not only is that dangerous for a soldier's health but speaks poorly to quality control for the rest of PLA kit. If supply can't be bothered to make sure their field rations are in order, what does that say about armor, or weapons systems, or electrical wiring? What else is going to have a risk of failure due to poor manufacture and storage?

Also you should work on your English. Your sentence structure is bad. You should have said: "complicated and decadent US menus...to PLA nutritious ones," not "PLA nutrition."

Ah well, better luck next time.

⚠️ LA "TATTICA DELL'AFFETTARE IL SALAME" DELL'ESERCITO POPOLARE DI LIBERAZIONE NEI TERRITORI CONTESI CON L'INDIA NAZIONALISTA PORTA I SUOI FRUTTI | L'INDIA PERDE 26 DEI 65 PUNTI DI PATTUGLIAMENTO NEL LADAKH ORIENTALE ⚠️

🇮🇳 L'India ha perso 26 dei 65 Punti di Pattugliamento nel Ladakh Orientale, lungo il confine con la Repubblica Popolare Cinese 🇨🇳

📄 È quanto scaturito da un Rapporto di un Alto Ufficiale di Polizia alla Conferenza Annuale dei Massimi Ufficiali di Polizia dell'India Nazionalista, tenutosi a Delhi - alla presenza del Primo Ministro Narendra Modi, del Ministro dell'Interno e del Consigliere per la Sicurezza Nazionale 🇮🇳

💬 "Attualmente ci sono 65 Punti di Pattugliamento a partire dal Passo di Karakorum fino a Chumur che devono essere pattugliati regolarmente dalle Forze Armate. Su 65, abbiamo perso la presenza in 26 Punti, a causa di un pattugliamento restrittivo o assente", ha affermato l'ufficiale.

⭐️ L'Esercito Popolare di Liberazione, nei Territori Contesi, e al confine con l'India Nazionalista (descritta come un paese-chiave su cui far leva per il sentimento anti-Cinese da Mike Pompeo) ha rafforzato la sua presenza - come si può leggere qui - e conduce una tattica definibile con l'espressione "affettare il salame", ovvero accaparrarsi - senza sparare un colpo - centimetro per centimetro, portando il nemico a perdere il controllo su certe aree 🪖

📟 Inoltre, l'EPL sta costruendo e posizionando sempre più apparecchiature di sorveglianza nelle "zone cuscinetto", con l'obiettivo di monitorare i movimenti delle Forze Armate Indiane 🇮🇳

🇨🇳 La scorsa settimana, Xi Jinping ha tenuto una video-conversazione con i soldati di stanza lungo il Confine Conteso tra Cina e India nel Ladakh Orientale, sottolineando l'importanza della preparazione e della prontezza al combattimento 🔥

⚠️ THE PEOPLE'S LIBERATION ARMY'S "SALAMI-SLICING TACTICS" IN DISPUTED TERRITORIES WITH NATIONALIST INDIA BRINGS FRUIT | INDIA LOSES 26 OF 65 PATROL POINTS IN EASTERN LADAKH ⚠️

🇮🇳India has lost 26 out of 65 Patrol Points in Eastern Ladakh, along the border with the People's Republic of China 🇨🇳

📄 This is what emerged from a Report by a Senior Police Officer at the Annual Conference of the Chief Police Officers of Nationalist India, held in Delhi - in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister and National Security Advisor 🇮🇳

💬 "Currently there are 65 Patrol Points starting from the Karakoram Pass up to Chumur that need to be patrolled regularly by the Armed Forces. Out of 65, we have lost presence in 26 Points, due to restricted or no patrolling," he said officer.

⭐️ The People's Liberation Army, in the Disputed Territories, and on the border with Nationalist India (described as a key country to leverage anti-China sentiment by Mike Pompeo) has strengthened its presence - how can read here - and carries out a tactic that can be defined with the expression "slicing salami", or rather grabbing - without firing a shot - centimeter by centimetre, leading the enemy to lose control over certain areas 🪖

📟 Also, the PLA is building and placing more and more surveillance equipment in the "buffer zones", aiming to monitor the movements of the Indian Armed Forces 🇮🇳

🇨🇳 Xi Jinping held a video conversation with soldiers stationed along the Sino-Indian Border in Eastern Ladakh last week, emphasizing the importance of preparedness and combat readiness 🔥

A Rare 2,000-Year-Old Sheep-Drawn Chariot Discovered Near China’s First Emperor

Only the sheep's skeletons remain, but such vehicles appear in Chinese lore.

Archaeologists have discovered the remains of what appears to be an ancient sheep-drawn chariot near the famous "Terracotta Army" in northwestern China.

The English-language website China Daily, which is owned by the Chinese Communist Party, reported that the remains were found in the "western tomb" at the site of Emperor Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum, a few miles northeast of the city of Xi'an in Shaanxi province.

Archaeologist Jiang Wenxiao, who is leading the excavations of the tomb, told China Daily that the main structure of the chariot had rotted away after spending more than 2,000 years in the ground. (The mausoleum dates to the third century B.C.)

But the team did find a row of six sheep skeletons wearing accessories used for pulling a chariot, so they inferred this was a sheep-drawn chariot, Wenxiao said.

Drawn by sheep

Horse-drawn chariots and ox-drawn carts were common in ancient China, but a sheep-drawn chariot is an extremely rare find, Wenxiao said.

They appear in Chinese history, however, as well as in Chinese lore. The founder of the Western Jin dynasty, Emperor Wu (or Sima Yan), who ruled from A.D. 266 to 290, is said to have ridden in a sheep-drawn carriage around his palace complex every night and would sleep wherever the sheep stopped.

His practice may be the origin of the modern Chinese phrase "seeking luck in a sheep cart"; it's said the emperor had a harem of 10,000 wives, and this seems to have been Sima Yan's method of choosing among them.

Wenxiao presented the discoveries at the Fourth Congress of Chinese Archaeology, which was held in Xi'an in October, according to the state-owned website ECNS.cn.

The team hopes laboratory analysis on the western tomb's burial chamber, which is currently underway, will help them determine who was buried there, the report said.

Chinese chariots

In addition to the six-sheep chariot, archaeologists unearthed a four-wheeled wooden chariot, presumably drawn by horses, equipped with an ornate rectangular umbrella. It is the oldest of its type ever found, according to Wenxiao.

They also found a wealth of copper chariot and horse-related artifacts, as well as iron tools and copper weapons, providing new insight into the period when iron tools first began to appear.

The mausoleum of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, who ruled from 221 to 210 B.C. and is considered the first emperor of a united China, is spread over about 10 square miles (26 square kilometers) and took 38 years to complete. Three immense pits in the mausoleum site hold more than 8,000 life-sized sculptures that depict the emperor's soldiers and their horses — the so-called Terracotta Army.
