If you’re China when it comes to military build up you’re stuck in a dilemma. If you build up your military of course your rivals aren’t going to like that. But if China doesn’t build up its military then it can be exploited by others. This isn’t even speculation, just look at China during the 1800s and 1900s. Warlords took control of the country, foreign powers established their spheres of influence, British opium planted in India flooded their black markets, and then of course Japan invaded numerous times. In other words, if China builds up its military it will be called a threat and if it doesn’t it will be threatened.
@Apple.CC.technomail
@Apple.CC.technomail 9 месяцев назад
There could be a simpler solution though. For example, instead of an aggressive build up they could try a steady and slow military buildup. Diplomatically speaking, aggressive wolf warrior tactics isn’t really helping them. Having a friendly and looking as non threatening as possible for as long as possible would’ve given them more time.

They had Soviet assistance, but only the air force, and Soviet assistance to the Chinese military was so reluctant that it was minimal.

I hope Indians can read carefully and experience with their hearts. The huge difference in the founding of China and India determines the biggest difference between India and China. Just look at the modern history of both countries and you will understand. India has been colonized by Britain for more than 200 years. In 1947, Britain experienced World War II, its strength declined significantly, and its status was replaced by the United States. India achieved independence through non violent and non cooperative means. In other words, India's independence has not undergone the test of blood and fire. Such an independent country lacks cohesion, willpower, and a sense of national identity. Now let's talk about China. Since the British defeated the corrupt and incompetent Qing government in 1840, the Chinese people have been living in dire straits. Various disasters and wars followed one after another. At that time, China was very poor and backward, suffering various humiliations. Including the cession of Hong Kong and Macau, Taiwan becoming a Japanese colony, the Eight Nation Alliance setting fire to the Old Summer Palace, and subsequent Japan's comprehensive and brutal invasion of China. In 1931, Japan launched a full-scale invasion of China. From 1931 to 1945, the war lasted for 14 years. The Chinese military and civilians rose up to resist, fought with blood for fourteen years, and suffered 30 million casualties, ultimately achieving victory. Do you know why there are so many casualties in China? There are hundreds of reasons, and I will only give an example of one phenomenon: Chinese troops are in conflict with Japanese troops. Often, if the number of Chinese soldiers participating in the war is 100, they only have 20-30 firearms. The remaining soldiers did not give up resistance or surrender. They bravely fought against the Japanese machine guns and cannons with machetes, steel forks, and wooden sticks until they sacrificed themselves. This spirit of facing death as if returning home and never retreating is the Chinese spirit. 30 million casualties! Do you think this can happen in India? For India, it is zero casualties because their knees are soft. India will soon give up resistance. Do you know why there was the Nanjing Massacre? Due to the desperate resistance of the Chinese military and civilians, they will never surrender or give up. After Japan captured Nanjing, firstly to vent its anger, and secondly to scare off other Chinese soldiers and civilians in resistance. However, the Nanjing Massacre not only did not deter any Chinese people, but also further aroused the resistance of the Chinese people. The establishment of New China has gone through the test of blood and fire. Do you know why the Chinese national flag is red? That's because the establishment of New China was bought with the blood of countless Chinese ancestors, and we Chinese people will always remember it. From 1945 to 1949, during the Chinese Civil War, the Kuomintang fled to Taiwan. Originally, the Chinese people thought they could live a peaceful life they had longed for, but in 1950, the Korean War broke out, lasting three years. The Chinese People's Volunteer Army successfully resisted the northward route of the United States without air superiority, sea superiority, outdated army equipment, and extremely poor logistics, at the cost of losing hundreds of thousands of brave People's Liberation Army soldiers. As for India's unforgettable and shameful 1962 Sino Indian War, in the eyes of us Chinese, it was not a war at all. Firstly, it only took 32 days. Secondly, from 1959 to 1961, China experienced the most difficult three years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, during which many people starved to death. In 1962, India's economy far surpassed that of China. Both the United States, the Soviet Union, and Britain support India. At that time, India implemented a "forward policy" and attacked China with elite troops. We Chinese people really don't want to go to war. The Chinese troops that participated in the war with India in 1962 were ordinary border defense forces, not regular People's Liberation Army. In China, soldiers are known as the "cutest people". There is a Chinese proverb: without a country, there is no home, and soldiers are the backbone of the country. Thank you to our brave soldiers of the People's Liberation Army who are always ready to defend the borders of our motherland. No matter how India develops its military, it cannot surpass China. Whether in the past, present, or future, China can always defeat India. This is determined by the history and culture of both countries. Chinese people value the spirit of dedication and sacrifice. Do not surrender, do not surrender, vow to resist to the death, and face death as if returning on the battlefield. If Chinese soldiers surrender on the battlefield, it would be a great shame, and the spirit of dying rather than giving up is deeply engraved in the bones of every Chinese person. These are all things that Indians do not possess. So, even now or in the future, India will never be able to defeat China. Now, do you think India can stand tall in the world like China? Absolutely impossible.

Great general rundown of China's modern military. The 2049 target to be a "world class military" was a general target, it has most kirkt been pushed forward due to USAs and the wests continued aggressive actions against China. From chip bans to Aukus/Quad to more military bases in Philippines etc. USAs increased aggression has forced China to respond and likely speed up its modernization. Just like China moved forward it's space program, especially the moon base. It used to be like 2040-2050, now pushed forward to around 2030-2040. So they will have started building moon base by 2030 at latest and continue building it over the following decade/s.

So many many mistake.Chinese volunteers have been described as relying on numerical superiority to defeat powerful enemies, but this is wrong. In fact, looking up the data, we can find that after excluding the Korean army, the war damage of the United Nations is still higher than that of the Chinese volunteers. And, after Dr. Gatlin's gadget, the crowd tactic has been proved to be useless. What is even more terrifying is that in the early stage of annihilating the intrusive regiment of the US military, the Communists were only armed with rifles, explosive cartridges and wooden grenades, and most of the soldiers were not even equipped with cotton-padded clothes (this caused a company of infantry to freeze to death in an ambush position, allowing an American army to escape). Now, OP is almost yelling at you on the loudspeaker, attacking the Communists is no different from eating a plate of French fries.

This somehow is translated to English to 'Army', which is not accurate since China classifies all top level military organizations to this word. So the more accurate translation should be 'military' or 'armed forces' which is exactly what they are. For comparison, see the Chinese names of the ROC military.

Love the video Griff. Was wondering if you have ever considered doing a video on the Mexican American War? Like your take on Mexico's Revolution and their history during WWI you did a few weeks ago. But a video on the Mexican American would be a great visual for my students if you ever do one.

0:15 Taiwan is just an island name and a geographical term. There is no country called Taiwan. It is also an unfinished part of the Chinese Civil War, which is why the Chinese military is still called the PLA.

Could you do a video on the battle of Alaska in World War Two? It was the Japanese invasion launched alongside the battle of Midway. It’s a hugely overlooked part of the pacific war. The American and Canadian forces were outgunned and under supplied, facing a vastly superior Japanese force while equipped with only ww1 gear and ships. If the Japanese succeeded they could have stopped lend lease to the soviets and raided the west coast.

Absolute masterpiece. I never thought I’d watch a movie I loved more than Road Warrior and was worried when I heard this was coming out but man I was blown away. I hear people complain about it just being all action and no story but that’s a terrible misrepresentation. It’s an amazing story told with a few words as possible and that sets it apart from most modern flicks. Love George Miller and I hope he keeps the story going!

China’s military is incredibly interesting, we still have to see if their military is up to task, China hasn’t fought a war since the 1970s, their military is either competent or not and the only way to know is for a war to break out

China spends roughly US$293 billion as of 2022, which is in contrast to the United States' $816 billion as of 2023. Most of america's budget is actually spent on payment and benefits to its 1,3 million members, the quality of which are much higher then that of the PLA. If China was forced to provide the same pay and benefits to its members as the US does, then China's budget would likely be much higher.

I'm glad to see the author of this video using his bias and ignorance of China to make a video to thank him for covering up China's defence capabilities. Still, I'm also sad for his subscribers, who are misled by misinformation. The Chinese threat theory that Americans have been preaching for a long time is nothing but the insatiable greed of the military-industrial complex, and the Americans also promote the theory of China's collapse, which is also for the benefit of politicians, I have always been curious, how China continues to threaten the United States while collapsing in the eyes of the Americans, if you want to understand China's military system, it is recommended to read "China's National Defense in the New Era", if you want to understand the history related to the origin of the PLA, it is recommended to read "Red Star Over China" by Edgar Parks Snow, I believe you have the critical thinking to deal with all of this.
