日媒称，登陆演习“规模前所未有”。
日本共同社12日发布的一篇独家报道在台湾激起千层浪：“解放军计划在8月举行以‘夺取台湾下辖东沙群岛’为假想目标的登陆演习”。台湾军方当天紧急声明“能确保东沙安全”，岛内专家纷纷猜测解放军此举是“意图打通航母通向太平洋通道”“为南海防空识别区做准备”。

共同社引述消息人士的话称，解放军计划8月在靠近海南岛的南海区域，举行以夺取“台湾下辖东沙群岛”为假想目标的大规模登陆演习。登陆演习将由负责南海防卫的南部战区实施，动用登陆舰、气垫船、直升机和海军陆战队，“规模前所未有”。
据介绍，东沙群岛位于从解放军海军设有基地的海南岛经台湾南方的巴士海峡前往太平洋的路线上，对解放军进入太平洋而言具有重要的战略意义。去年12月入列的中国首艘国产航母山东舰也部署在海南岛的基地，“对解放军而言，确实有控制东沙的必要”。

此外报道还提到，美军电子战机为收集解放军情报，在东沙附近空域频繁飞行，“仅4月就飞来13次”。报道称，“解放军对美军在南海的军事活动日益活跃感到焦躁，该演习有可能导致与美国、台湾之间的紧张加剧”。
台军方面对该报道极为重视。12日上午在台湾“国防部”例行记者会上，台“国防部”发言人史顺文强调，“对周边共军演训与军事动态，国军运用联合情监侦作为，对周遭情况都能充分掌握、及时应处”。目前东沙与太平岛归台湾“海巡署”驻守，驻岛官兵由台海军陆战队负责训练，配备迫击炮、速射机炮等火炮，具有轻装步兵实力。
台湾“国防部” 作计室联合作战处长林文皇宣称，台军对外离岛都有相关应处机制与应援计划，驻岛部队的战备执勤、火炮射击、战斗技能与后勤维保，相关战备整备工作“具有等同陆战队坚强战力，能确保岛上安全”。台湾《联合报》称，东沙岛的迫击炮阵地隐藏在地表下，“坚固可用”。台“海巡署”12日表示，东沙驻防海巡部队预计6月将实施火力演习，“验证岛上阵地各式迫击炮、机炮射击效能”。
除了猜测“解放军夺东沙是意图打通国产航母通往太平洋要道”之外，台湾中正大学战略暨国际事务研究所助理教授林颖佑还认为，解放军这次演习区域跟外界盛传的“南海防空识别区”有部分重叠，因此也可能是为下一步设置“南海防空识别区”做准备。
军事专家宋忠平12日对《环球时报》记者表示，东沙群岛处在东南沿海的战略要冲，又连通着南海和西太平洋，位置非常关键。如果东沙群岛由台湾当局租借给美军实施一些军事侦测活动，比如安置侦测器或反潜设备，对解放军的影响较大。台当局已有人主张把太平岛租借给美军，不排除未来租借东沙岛的可能。宋忠平认为，台海局势越发紧张的根本原因在于蔡英文当局不断搞“台独”，甚至要通过制宪的方式来实现法理“台独”。在这种前提下，解放军做好军事斗争准备，包括联合军演，意图“敲山震虎”，警告“台独分子”不要跨越红线和底线。他表示，“解放军的夺岛演练已是常态化科目，夺岛演练顾名思义就是针对岛屿，东沙群岛是岛屿，澎湖列岛也是，台湾本岛是一个更大的岛屿。如果‘台独分子’一意孤行搞分裂，军事演习随时可以转化为军事行动。”

Original title: Japanese media exposed "The PLA exercised in August to seize Dongsha", the Taiwan army is nervous!
Japanese media said the landing exercise was "unprecedented in scale."
An exclusive report released by the Kyodo News on the 12th stirred up thousands of waves in Taiwan: "The PLA plans to hold a landing exercise with the imaginary goal of" taking the Dongsha Islands under Taiwan "in August." The Taiwan military ’s emergency statement on the day “can ensure the safety of Dongsha”, experts on the island speculated that the PLA ’s move was “intent to open up the aircraft carrier to the Pacific Channel” and “preparation for the South China Sea air defense identification zone”.

Kyodo News quoted sources as saying that the PLA plans to hold a large-scale landing exercise in August in the South China Sea area near Hainan Island with the imaginary goal of seizing "Taiwan Islands under Taiwan". The landing exercise will be carried out by the southern theater responsible for the defense of the South China Sea, using landing ships, hovercraft, helicopters and the Marine Corps, "unprecedented scale."
According to reports, the Dongsha Islands are located on the route from Hainan Island, where the PLA Navy has a base, to the Pacific Ocean through the bus strait in southern Taiwan, and are of strategic importance for the PLA to enter the Pacific Ocean. The first Chinese-made aircraft carrier Shandong ship listed in December last year was also deployed at the base of Hainan Island. "For the PLA, it is indeed necessary to control Dongsha."

In addition, the report also mentioned that in order to collect PLA intelligence, the US military electronic fighters frequently flew in the airspace near Dongsha, "13 times in April alone." The report said, "The People's Liberation Army is anxious about the increasingly active military activities of the US military in the South China Sea. This exercise may lead to increased tensions with the United States and Taiwan."
The Taiwan military attaches great importance to this report. At the regular press conference of Taiwan ’s “Ministry of National Defense” on the morning of the 12th, Taiwan ’s “Ministry of National Defense” spokesman Shi Shunwen emphasized, “For the joint military exercises and military developments in the surrounding areas, the National Army has used joint intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance to be able to respond to the surrounding conditions. Fully grasp and timely response ". At present, Dongsha and Taiping Islands are stationed by Taiwan ’s "Sea Patrol Administration". The officers and men stationed on the island are trained by the Taiwan Marine Corps, equipped with mortars, rapid-fire machine guns and other artillery, and have the strength of light infantry.
Taiwan ’s “Ministry of National Defense” Chief of Operations Office Lin Wenhuang declared that Taiwan ’s military has relevant response mechanisms and response plans for outlying islands. The preparation work "has the same strength as the Marine Corps and can ensure the safety of the island." Taiwan ’s United Daily News stated that the mortar positions on Dongsha Island were hidden under the surface and were “sturdy and usable”. Taiwan's "Sea Patrol Administration" said on the 12th that the Dongsha Garrison Patrol Force is expected to conduct fire drills in June to "verify the shooting effectiveness of various mortar and machine gun positions on the island."
In addition to speculating that “the PLA ’s seizing Dongsha is intended to open up the domestic aircraft carrier to the Pacific route”, Lin Yingyou, an assistant professor at the Institute of Strategy and International Affairs of Taiwan ’s Chung Cheng University, also believed that the PLA ’s exercise area and the outside world ’s popular “South China Sea Air Defense Identification Zone” There is some overlap, so it may also be to prepare for the next step of setting up the "South China Sea Air Defense Identification Zone".
Military expert Song Zhongping told reporters from the Global Times on the 12th that the strategic location of the Dongsha Islands on the southeastern coast, which connects the South China Sea and the Western Pacific, is very critical. If the Dongsha Islands are leased by the Taiwan authorities to the US military to carry out some military detection activities, such as installing detectors or anti-submarine equipment, it will have a greater impact on the PLA. Some people in the Taiwan authorities have advocated leasing Taiping Island to the US military, and it does not rule out the possibility of leasing Dongsha Island in the future. Song Zhongping believes that the root cause of the increasingly tense situation in the Taiwan Strait is that the Tsai Ing-wen authorities continue to engage in "Taiwan independence," and even to achieve the legal "Taiwan independence" through the constitution. Under this premise, the PLA prepares for military struggles, including joint military exercises, and intends to "knock the mountain and shake the tiger", warning "Taiwan independence elements" not to cross the red line and the bottom line. He said, "The PLA ’s exercise to seize the island is a normal subject. As the name suggests, the exercise to seize the island is aimed at islands, the Dongsha Islands are islands, the Penghu Islands are also islands, and Taiwan ’s main island is a larger island. Military exercises can be transformed into military operations at any time. "
