Taiwan plans to invade PRC

[singveld]

What a pity, Chiang Kai Shek should try even if he lost a few hundreds men or thousands men. Hero are made by winning war. Not by humanitarian acts or peace making, people who perform humanitarian acts or peace are forgotten over time as do gooders.
While Hero are remember forever in monuments and statues.

Taiwan's plan to take back mainland

By Cindy Sui
Taoyuan County, Taiwan

Most people in China and Taiwan might think they know what happened after the long and bloody civil war between the Chinese Nationalist Party and the Communist Party ended in 1949.

But recently declassified government archives have revealed a previously unknown secretive plan by Taiwan's late President Chiang Kai-shek to take back mainland China.

Chiang and his troops had fled to Taiwan after losing the war to the Communists but, despite great obstacles, he was obsessed with the idea of taking back the land he had lost.

According to these newly-revealed government documents, by the 1960s Chiang thought the time was right to launch a counter-attack, given the devastating famine Mao Zedong's leadership had unleashed and the possibility China would soon have a nuclear weapon.

The US was fighting the Vietnam War then, and Chiang knew he needed US military assistance if he were to succeed so he offered to help the Americans fight the war in Vietnam in exchange for US support.

Washington objected to Chiang's suggestions, but Chiang went ahead with his preparations anyway.

Top secret

The declassified information - photocopies of which went on public display in Taiwan for the first time in May - show that Chiang's planned offensive, called the Guo Guang [National Glory] Project, involved 26 operations including land invasions, special operations behind enemy lines and raids against the enemy.


Chiang also instructed his son Chiang Ching-kuo to come up with a plan to launch an airborne attack on southern China's Fujian and Guangdong provinces.

All of this was top secret at the time.

In 1965, the plans were ready. Soldiers and officers drew up their wills, while the top brass were trying to choose the most suitable "D-Day" to deploy their troops, according to the archives.

But Beijing had discovered the plan. On 6 August 1965, two Taiwanese naval vessels assigned to transport troops on a reconnaissance mission were sunk by Communist forces. About 200 soldiers were killed.

In November the same year, another vessel sent to drop off supplies for soldiers stationed on one of Taiwan's outlying islands was hit by Communist torpedoes, killing some 90 soldiers.

The heavy loss of life surprised Chiang Kai-shek. He then realised China had significantly improved its naval capability. Chiang was forced to scale back and eventually abandon his plan.

But according to Gen Huang Chih-chung, who was an army colonel at the time and was part of the planning process, Chiang never completely gave up the desire to take back China.

"Even when he died, he was still hoping the international situation would change and that the Communists would be wiped out one day."

Shift in focus

The failure of Chiang's plan changed the course of Chinese and Taiwanese history.

The Taiwanese "shifted the focus to modernising and defending Taiwan instead of preparing Taiwan to take back China," said Andrew Yang, a political scientist specialising in Taiwan-China relations at the Taipei-based Council of Advanced Policy Studies.


Chiang's son, who later succeeded him as president, focused on maintaining peace between the mainland and Taiwan.

Details of this chapter in history were kept secret for 44 years, and were only revealed when the tourism department in Taoyuan County managed to convince the ministry of national defence and the national library to give it access to the archives.

"There were 26 planned operations, but the department of defence only kept documents on 10 of them. The others were all destroyed," said Hsieh Shyang-ling, a spokeswoman for the Taoyuan tourism department.

"Chiang Kai-shek didn't want people to know. What we have access to are only some of the documents."

It remains unclear how many soldiers died in the preparations leading up to the plan that was never actually carried out.

"To this day, some of their families might not even know how they died," Andrew Yang said.


The documents are now displayed in what was once a secret command centre in the scenic mountains of Taoyuan, which the tourism department opened to the public for the first time in May.

Hundreds of tourists visit the area each day, including some Chinese tourists.

"We feel that since this history existed, we should not hide it. We want to tell people there was this part of history," Ms Hsieh said.

The now elderly Gen Huang said he hoped lessons could be learned from history.

"Relations between Taiwan and China have totally changed now. I hope it will develop peacefully," he said. "There's no need for war."

Only one country is unhappy about all these, USA. With China and Taiwan becoming brothers, it is more difficult for USA to divide and rule.

THREE PRINCIPLES OF THE PEOPLE
TO RULE CHINA

三民主義

The Principle of Mínzú
(Min²-tsu², 民族主義 "The People's Relation/Connection" or "Government of the People"): Nationalism. By this, Sun meant freedom from imperialist domination. To achieve this he believed that China must develop a "civic-nationalism", Zhonghua Minzu, as opposed to an "ethnic-nationalism", so as to unite all of the different ethnicities of China, mainly composed by the five major groups of Han, Mongols, Tibetans, Manchus, and the Muslims, which together are symbolized by the Five Color Flag of the First Republic (1911-1928). This sense of nationalism is different from the idea of "ethnocentrism," which equates to the same meaning of nationalism in Chinese language.


[edit] The Principle of Mínquán
(Min²-ch'üan², 民權主義 "The People's Power" or "Government by the People"): Democracy. To Sun, it represented a Western constitutional government. First, he divided political life of his ideal for China into two sets of 'powers':


[edit] The power of politics
(政權; zhèngquán): These are the powers of the people to express their political wishes, similar to those vested in the citizenry or the parliaments in other countries, and is represented by the National Assembly. There are four of these powers: election (選舉), recall (罷免), initiative (創制), and referendum (複決). These may be equated to "civil rights".


[edit] The power of governance
(治權; zhìquán): these are the powers of administration. Here he expanded the European-American constitutional theory of a three-branch government and a system of checks and balances by incorporating traditional Chinese administrative tradition to create a government of five branches (each of which is called a yuàn or 'court'). The Legislative Yuan, the Executive Yuan, and the Judicial Yuan came from Montesquieuan thought; the Control Yuan and the Examination Yuan came from Chinese tradition. (Note that the Legislative Yuan was first intended as a branch of governance, not strictly equivalent to a national parliament.)


[edit] The Principle of Mínshēng
(民生主義; mínshēng): This is sometimes translated as "The People's Welfare/Livelihood," "Government for the People," or even socialism, although the government of Chiang Kai-shek shied away from translating it as such. The concept may be understood as social welfare or as populist ("for the people", "to pleasure the people") governmental measures. Sun understood it as an industrial economy and equality of land holdings for the Chinese peasant farmers. Here he was influenced by the American thinker Henry George (see Georgism); the land value tax in Taiwan is a legacy thereof. He divided livelihood into four areas: food, clothing, housing, and transportation; and planned out how an ideal (Chinese) government can take care of these for its people.

That there existed a plan to counter-attack the mainland was widely known in Taiwan. Chiang Kai-shek offered to send troops to help US and South Korea take North Korea, obviously an attempt to open a backdoor for himself back into China. However, US was in no mood for an all-out China war, and rejected Chiang.

The plan to counter-attack the mainland (known in Taiwan as 反攻大陆) never officially stood-down, just standing by awaiting the next opportunity. However, as years have gone by and the cold war ended, it's getting more and more remote.

where got? they made very cheap laptop and good motherboards and decent video cards and excellent computer casing for the whole world.
and our army still use taiwan, not PRC. Which means if China attack taiwan and USA go in, singapore will go to taiwan to help by command of US president.

basically the vietnam war have affected taiwan. so instead of getting china back, they want to make cheap computer chips to rule the world.

During the Vietnam War, Taiwan was still very much a tense war zone with millions of men under arms and standing by to fight. As it happened, the chief economic beneficiary of the Vietnam War was the newly independent Singapore, its ports and industries being pivotal to US supply lines.

yes, japan profit massively from korean war, and singapore profit massively from vietnam war.

war is money.

if there is no war, there will be no money to be made.

for someone who's "wars" are most probably Command and Conquer or Shogun: Total War, you sure talk big.

Dun play any of those games.
Who's talking big mofo? If you're not a taiwanese shithead yourself or their asslicker, then you'd know that taiwan scumbags never regarded themselves as Chinese but as "enlightened" japenis fucked over race & in their minds, better than any other non-jap asians.

Only one country is unhappy about all these, USA. With China and Taiwan becoming brothers, it is more difficult for USA to divide and rule.

I agree, but the taiwanese shitheads only talk cock like this & will never forge closer ties with anyone non-jap or non-white. They're deceitful cunts, like their masters, the japenis empire.
