TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — A video by a Chinese military buff channel last week called for an all-out war with Japan were it to try to defend Taiwan from an invasion from China, outlining plans for dividing Japan into four countries and a vassal state after a supposed defeat by People's Liberation Army (PLA) forces.
On July 13, verified military commentary channel "Liujun Taolue" (六军韬略) uploaded a video titled “The United States and Japan will jointly defend Taiwan? Interference with our unification of Taiwan means Japan’s Destruction!” Within one day, the video had garnered 1.94 million views, 24,000 comments, and 53,000 likes on the YouTube-like platform Xigua.
The video lists out six major strategy points in the event Japan tries to intervene during a PLA invasion of Taiwan. First, it says that a pre-war strategy will be utilized in which Taiwan and Japan will become the "two main directions of attack."

nice three gorges damn you have got, be a shame if sompting was to happen to it...
So let me get this straight, China’s strategy is an all out offensive on Taiwan AND Japan,
Without focus on that little friend of Japan, the USA, which has every obligation and intention to defend Japan.
What we have here is a desperate threat by China to try and keep Japan out of this.
If we think we might handle the Chinese navy on its way to Taiwan, how are they going to deal with a naval battle on two fronts and the long stretch to Japan backed by a superpower America and our other allies?
I’d bet more likely hours. The time it takes to assemble.
They have F-15’s. Americans have tested theirs with nukes.
Japan can also launch Tomahawks that can also be “Specials”.
China will disintegrate if Beijing is turned into glass.
Three months? I say less than three days.
“how are they going to deal with a naval battle on two fronts and the long stretch to Japan backed by a superpower America...?
Give the big guy 10%?
Given the virus,I’d say the @#$&% fagotty ass chicoms would nuke themselves and claim victory.
Dear China, remember the last time you mixed it up with Japan?
There’s always the Three Gorges Dam. I wouldn’t imagine you’d need to go nuclear to take it out.
Backed by superpower America. Right. Just not the US Navy, which China will eliminate in a few hours, at most.
My question is, will Japan do anything without the US? If not, China takes Taiwan, even if it’s a bloody mess, while the US and China sit on the sidelines.
If the US does come in, somehow, they better not lose. Think how many countries they would divide the US into. Which I think is the real message of “the Chinese buff site.”
>>Imo, china won’t go nuclear.
>>There are enough chinese to attempt an overwhelming shock and awe land campaign.
Plus, China has a large surplus of males they need to “reduce” for social stability.
Japan has the know-how. And the highly-enriched plutonium. And most likely the components on a shelf, hidden away for a threatening enemy like China or North Korea. Problem with North Korea is few valuable targets. Not a problem with China, a vast quantity of high-value targets to strike with nukes, in the event China attacks Japan.
I read somewhere that the Hiroshima Fat-Man bomb was crude and only converted 2 percent of it's fissile material to energy. The physics is better now on creating small nukes with less fissile material, and Japan has many tons of it. Bye-bye China, it'll get split up into a dozen countries if they attack Japan.
China has a ton of nice targets
Delusional hubris.
“There are enough chinese to attempt an overwhelming shock and awe land campaign. “
How would they land them in Japan?
“Just not the US Navy, which China will eliminate in a few hours, at most.”
Sheer ignorance.
Pretty heavy rainfall in parts of China. A couple of dams in inner Mongolia failed. Peking is getting some flooding.
The time it takes to create a nuclear weapon is almost proportional to the time it take to enrich enough fissile material to reach the desired weapon energy yield. Japan has the missile technology, but not the enriched fissile material which would likely take a great deal of time considering they don’t have the enriching facilities in place - at least officially.
