On November 22, Global Network quoted the Hindustan Times as saying that China is strengthening its defense in the border area of Leh (India’s so-called Ladakh). According to senior Indian military officials, the PLA is not only building more than a dozen bomb shelters in Samar Palon, about 30 kilometers east of the Karakoram Pass, but also comprehensively strengthening its defense from the Galavan Valley to Lake Bangong Lake.
Indian media said that the Indian border guard found that a large number of PLA trucks carrying tanks were moving towards the border. At the same time, the People’s Liberation Army also set up a large number of observation devices on the Chinese side of the China-Indian actual control line, so that PLA infantry did not have to go out to patrol in the cold, but only need to use observation equipment to closely monitor. Every move of the Indian army.
From the perspective of national law, in fact, there is no real border between China and India. Since the Tang Dynasty, China and India have formed a “traditional customary line” along the natural trend of the Himalayas, Karakoram Mountains and other high mountains. However, in order to expand the sphere of influence of British India, the subsequent British colonists unilaterally transferred our southern Tibet and Aksaichin areas to British India in order to break the long-standing traditional customary line. After India’s independence, it inherited the practice of the British and Indian colonial government, unilaterally using the two illegal border lines forcibly demarcated by Britain as the border between China and India. Strictly speaking, the “actual line of control” between China and India can only be called, not the border line.
Because the border between China and India has not been officially demarcated, India has always had territorial ambitions for China. Even the defeat of the border war in 1962 did not break India’s dream. Since this summer, India has been provoking border conflicts in the Galwan Valley, Bangong Lake and other areas. After being hit head-on by the People’s Liberation Army, India not only did not learn lessons, but intensified its efforts to send more troops to the conflict areas. In the more than three months from June to September, he mobilized a large army to reinforce the Ladakh region, and put on an aggressive posture, trying to rely on the superiority of force to “intimidate” the PLA, and benefited from the negotiations.
However, not only are all India’s dreams now completely destroyed, but India itself is still in the embarrassment of riding a tiger. Because India originally mobilized troops to the plateau in an attempt to force the PLA to make concessions at the negotiating table, but the Indians did not expect the PLA to confront each other. Instead of giving in, they also gathered troops in the plateau area. Although the strength of the People’s Liberation Army is much lower than that of the Indian army opposite, the firepower and support of the People’s Liberation Army are much higher than that of the Indian army.
The emergence of tank transport vehicles means that the PLA has deployed a considerable number of main battle tanks in a very advanced position in the border area, which India can’t do at all. Most of the tanks currently deployed in India’s Ladakh are deployed in Lex and Shyok. The front line is only infantry fighting vehicles. It is not that the Indians do not want to deploy tanks on the front line, but are subject to India’s technical level and transportation capabilities. Their tanks can’t be driven to the front line at all.
The People’s Liberation Army continues to strengthen the deployment of the border. The Indian army, which was originally transferred to the plateau, is now completely afraid to withdraw, because India knows that the level of firepower of the Indian army is not comparable to that of the People’s Liberation Army in the first place. If it loses its superiority, it will be completely impossible to compete at the border. The troops that originally attempted to “intimidate” the PLA can now be deployed on the spot for the winter.
The situation of the Indian army is very bad now. First of all, there is a serious shortage of cold-proof clothing, so that even the sweaty second-hand coldproof clothing in the United States will not be spared. However, even so, there are still tens of thousands of coldproof clothing gaps that cannot be filled. It is certain that people will freeze to death on the plateau this year, the difference is only how many.
Compared with the Indian army, the PLA side is obviously much easier. Although the climate in the plateau area is bad, the oxygen content of the air is only half that of the plain, and the lowest temperature has reached -50 °C, the PLA has sufficient logistical support conditions, and has prepared sufficient food, cold protection supplies, heating equipment, etc. for each border post, and many posts have been renovated and built. A large number of new camps with oxygenation and insulation have been built, providing better security conditions for PLA soldiers. Therefore, some netizens said: The People’s Liberation Army is warm and hospitable. This is not intended to let the Indian army go, but to stay with the Indian army for the Spring Festival.
In fact, there is great economic complementarity between China and India. As a developing country, India urgently needs strong infrastructure investment, industrial investment and the establishment of its own industrial system. These are precisely China’s strengths. China is the only industrial country in the world. From bridge-building and road construction to the entire industrial system, China Both can invest in India and help India achieve faster development.
Unfortunately, India’s elite has been brainwashed by the early British and Indian colonial government for too long and completely unclear about the situation. What’s more, in the face of the severe epidemic and economic recession at home, the Indian government chose to distract the attention of the domestic people by provoking neighboring countries abroad. This idea can only ultimately damage India. Advantage of your own national interests. Now more than 100,000 Indian troops are trapped on the Ladakh plateau and can’t get back and out. It’s hard to ride a tiger!
