Xi Jinping tells People’s Liberation Army to be ready to win regional war

[INDIAPOSITIVE]

BEIJING/NEW DELHI: Chinese president Xi Jinping has promoted three People's Liberation Army (PLA) generals known to be close to him and also asked his troops to "improve their combat readiness and sharpen their ability to win a regional war in the age of information technology".

While this is not the first time Xi has made such a statement, it has raised eyebrows as Indian and Chinese troops are engaged in a high-altitude military face-off at Chumar in eastern Ladakh.

Reports said the promotions were ordered after XI summoned 15 top generals to Beijing on Sunday and spoke to them in PLA chief Fang Fenghui's presence. Significantly, Xi also said military commanders should "have a better understanding of international and domestic security situations".

"All PLA forces should follow the instructions of President Xi Jinping, also chairman of the central military commission (CMC), and update their operations to meet new goals and missions set by the CMC," Xinhua news agency quoted an official statement as saying.

The statement highlighted the president's unhappiness with the military and underlined the need "to improve efficiency of military command under new circumstances".

"The meeting focused on streamlining the operational headquarters of all PLA forces with information technology and revised several important protocols."

Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunyin separately insisted on Monday that there was no need to have "unnecessary suspicion" on both sides on the border issue.

She said the leaders of the two countries have reached an important consensus on politically resolving the border issue through friendly mechanism.

"China and India have sufficient capacity and confidence to maintain peace and tranquility in the boundary areas," she said.

The developments indicate the president, who is also the supreme commander of armed forces, is trying to further reinforce his authority.

The PLA had publicly vowed to accept the authority of the ruling Communist Party after Xi became its general secretary following his ascent to power last year.

Xi's crackdown on corruption, which also targeted former military officers, is believed to have made his position unassailable in all sections of the country.

china will take ladakh and AP and Pakistan army will take Kashmir two sided attack to crush india and take revenge for 1971

China can have regional war with India, Vietnam, Japan or Phillippines. Since he is talking to the Army Generals so I assume Japan and Phillippines are ruled out. Now its either India or Vietnam. In the recent history China has been unable to defeat Vietnam despite engaging in several wars. Vietnam demotivates chinese soldiers who wont be interested in ground battle with Vietnam. However, after their win in 1962, china has ensured that the victory does not fade away. They immediately retreated after getting a bloody nose in 1967, so that a full fledged war is averted. On the other hand, being engaged by Pakistan, India could not feel confident about matching up to China and avoided all confrontations. Our politicians were too meek to have a confrontation on Mcmohan Line.

However, things started changing since y2k. India tamed Pakistan and made her get caught in her own cobweb, the economy boomed and world order changed. The indian generals started getting the comfort of dealing with pak-china threat together. All India needed was a strong leader which she got after 25 years. This has unnerved China. The world is trying to assess Modi and he is sending very strong signals by not speaking in english. His enigma is intact. I hope Xi 's statement was only a rhetoric to motivate his soldiers. After 1962 debacle, india left china with a bleeding nose in 1967 and is now ready for anything. Indian army can defeat PLA in border conflict, if this escalates India can match up missile to missile, in the ocean and in the sky. India can prolong the war and make china more miserable than she will suffer herself. But a war across Himalayas from north to south curve will not be a regional war. China will be more under stress from Japan and Vietnam than her ally in south Asia can do for India. Sorry China, you are late by 15 years for any adventures with India.

china will take ladakh and AP and Pakistan army will take Kashmir two sided attack to crush india and take revenge for 1971

Do you have any idea where the next Indo-Pak war will be fought...... No, not in Kashmir, the next Indo-Pak war will be fought on Durand Line.

Please tell me what are you smoking?

Wishful thinking ... Its better that your army takes care of terrorist inside your own home rather than daydreaming of attack on India... Have been defeated three times.. yet has a wish of getting defeated 4th time...

1. Indian Air Force has a squadron of fighter jets stationed in Tajikistan.
2. India has been purchasing arms from Russia and seeking the delivery in Afghanistan.
3. Indian Army is training Afghan military officers and soldiers.
4. India is investing in a so called long term "war infrastruture" in Afghanistan.
5. Afghans are resenting being backyard of Pakistan.
6. Afghanistan is building several dams and reservoirs on rivers that flow into Pakistan further choking the Indus River system.
7. Both afghan and pak security forces keep firing into each other's territories.
8. Afghanistan has still not accepted the sanctity of Durand Line.
9. India-Pakistan being nuclear weapons will avoid direct confrontation. Pakistan has been using jihadis as proxy while Afghanistan is the best bet for India as proxy against Pakistan.

These are not my thoughts but hard facts. It does not take Einstein's brains to draw inferences.

Guess what? ISI has support from the Afghan Taliban, the Pakistan Taliban are very open-minded into attacking India and also several Indian states don't want to be part of it, take Assam for example. Russia supplies arms to China and Pakistan, therefore both have a good idea about India's military inventory and China knows very well to crack Russian technology and it's softwares (J-20, J-31 are both examples). Did I forget to mention we Bangladesh hate India too and thus China has increased it's "assistance" to both Bangladesh military and economy, trying to become a more supportive trade partner. If Hasina falls you can say goodbye to the alliance and expect a much hostile attitude from the BD military after all India's RAW helped Hasina with the BDR mutiny (for which no army was deployed during the election). Also China wants to help finance the Sonadia Islands (deep sea ports) which can give India a Gwadar like headache.
