Speaking of the United States, everyone knows that it likes to "shine its muscles" on the global stage. But recently, the world has witnessed a situation that has embarrassed the United States itself:

The Pentagon released a report on China's development of the Australian military port, claiming that it would "lock the western Pacific", with rare high-ranking expressions of the U.S. military, while the public opinion was downward "preoccupied with China's threat".

But the fact is, the more the United States screams, the more it exposes its "paper tiger" colour.

The Pentagon is "crying wolf" again

Why does the United States always "pretend to be cruel" in front of China? How much energy does Sandu'ao Military Port have? Will the bluff of the United States in turn make China "win hemp" in the end?

The logic and reality behind this is actually more direct and interesting than many people think.The Pentagon suddenly issued a report, referring directly to China's Fujian-built Three-Town Australian military port, saying that China is expanding its military port and upgrading its facilities here.

Even exciting words such as "locking the western Pacific" were put on the table. The attitude of the U.S. military this time is very rare. The words used in the report are heavier than the other, such as "threatening the freedom of waterways" and "changing the balance of regional power" and so on.

The American media immediately followed up on the hype and described the Sandu 'ao Military Port as a "new dragon bone in Asia," as if the United States would "fail" in the Asia-Pacific if China took one step forward.

What is the actual situation? Sandu'ao is indeed a deep-water port of great strategic value on the southeast coast of China, with a superior geographical location, a vast hinterland and a good natural barrier. It is one of the modern bases that the Chinese navy has focused on in recent years.

What the United States is most afraid of is that once China's surface fleet and submarine forces use Sandu 'ao as a springboard and cooperate with the Dongfeng missile system, they will directly form a strong deterrent to the entire Western Pacific.

By then, even if the US aircraft carrier is driven in, it will be difficult to "walk sideways" like before. The tension in the U.S. military this time is real.

The report even bluntly stated that once the upgrade of China's Sanduao military port is completed, coupled with the island and reef bases in the South China Sea and East China Sea, the actions of the US military in the first island chain will be greatly restricted.

American public opinion even began to advocate a "new cold war between China and the United States", and various voices discussing "how to fight against China's rise" came one after another. Looking at the reaction of Americans, even ordinary netizens laughed: Isn't the United States scaring itself?

The nature of the paper tiger is a bit exposed.

In fact, it is simple, because the United States has discovered that the previous set of "high in the top, say one" international pattern, has long shaken.

Over the past few decades, the United States has firmly suppressed major global opponents through military, financial, scientific and technological means, but now, China is pursuing it, especially in the fields of military industry and infrastructure, and has directly threatened the "leading position" that the United States considers itself.

Sandu 'ao Military Port is just a microcosm. The reason why the United States is "fried" this time is because China is becoming more and more determined in its actions and responding more and more confident. It is not afraid of your sanctions or threats, and even takes the initiative to show its trump card and show its strength.

Americans actually know very well that their own "paper tiger" tricks can only temporarily scare and scare people.

The United States flourishes all over the world¡¯s military bases, the aircraft carriers are full of world flight, but in the end, the U.S. military has been in trouble for years: Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Ukraine, which is not a mess?

Military spending has been sky-high, but morale has been repeatedly hit. Americans have watched the "low-key surge" of China's military in recent years and the rise of strategic ports such as Sandu 'ao, and they cannot hide the panic in their hearts.

The U.S. this "building momentum", in addition to wanting to scare China, is more important still "to show its own people", so that the allies follow together tension. but the problem is, the world has changed, everyone knows that the U.S. "paper tiger" set is almost useless.

In terms of Australia, the Americans, although verbally ¡°warned China,¡± but really let them do it, they are clearer than anyone: China today is not the ¡°Eastern Asian sick man¡± that was figured out a few decades ago.

The more the U.S. is ¡°crying and killing,¡± the more it is indicating that their position in the Western Pacific is being shaken.Our China has always said ¡°crying and killing¡±, now directly put the bottom of ¡°doing something.¡±

The United States forced China to take action, and finally found itself the passive party.

The American ¡°paper tiger¡± is no longer good.

In fact, people who understand it understand that it is not just a port, it is also a symbol of the modernization of the Chinese navy. In the past few decades, the Chinese navy has been plagued by "near-sea defense" and the scope of activity is restricted by people.

But now, with the completion of a series of modern military ports such as Sandu 'ao, Yalong Bay in Hainan, Zhanjiang, and Qingdao, the ocean-going activities capabilities of China's surface fleet and submarine forces have long since changed.

What the United States fears most is that China has got rid of the "passive defense" situation and truly has the ability to "go global and escort the ocean."

The integration of natural deep water, input and output, maintenance, command and integration can fully support large-scale operations.In addition to the surrounding railway, high-speed, oil warehouse all supports, the three-way has become China's Southeast Sea defense "Seaside Needle".

The more Americans shout, the more they panic, but the whole world has seen a truth clearly: China is no longer the country that was bullied by others in the past, and China is now taking every step with confidence, discipline and courage.

The incident directly led many countries to see China's hard power and strategic layout.China is no longer the kind of role that "only negotiates and does not handle", but "speaks to do, dares to fight."

The more the United States hypes up the "threat theory", the more it lets the world see its strong nature on the outside but tough on the inside. The "paper tiger" nature of the United States is also reflected in its "self-contradiction".

While talking about maintaining world peace, he provoked trouble, sent troops and imposed sanctions everywhere, and as a result, he dragged himself into the quagmire. Every time I "shine my muscles" in front of China, it ends up becoming a "self-slap in the face".

In the future, as long as China continues to adhere to its own path, the "paper tiger" of the United States will be increasingly without deterrence.

The United States is not able to change China's "winning" trend, but the real strong is a country that dares to face pressure, dares to break the blockade, and can grow in adversity.

American paper tiger tricks, in the end, will only let themselves jump more and more tired, finally thrown behind by history.
