By Edwin F -

China has released a TV documentary that showcases its army's ability to attack Taiwan. The documentary, titled "The Great Bay Exercise," was aired on state television on July 1, 2023.

The documentary shows footage of Chinese military exercises, including live-fire drills and amphibious landings. It also features interviews with military experts who discuss China's plans for a potential attack on Taiwan.

The documentary has raised concerns in Taiwan and the United States, as it comes amid rising tensions between China and Taiwan. The United States has pledged to help Taiwan defend itself against a Chinese attack, and it has warned China against using force to take control of the island.

The documentary begins with a map of China and Taiwan, with a red line drawn across the Taiwan Strait. The narrator explains that the red line represents China's "bottom line" on Taiwan, and that any attempt by Taiwan to declare independence would be met with military force.

The documentary then goes on to show footage of Chinese military exercises. This includes live-fire drills, amphibious landings, and air force exercises. The narrator explains that China is building up its military power in order to deter Taiwan from declaring independence.

The documentary also features interviews with military experts who discuss China's plans for a potential attack on Taiwan. One expert says that China could use a combination of air, sea, and land forces to attack Taiwan. Another expert says that China could also use cyberwarfare to disable Taiwan's defenses.

The documentary ends with a warning to Taiwan. The narrator says that China will not hesitate to use force to take control of Taiwan, and that Taiwan should not underestimate China's resolve.

The release of the documentary has raised concerns in Taiwan and the United States. The United States has pledged to help Taiwan defend itself against a Chinese attack, and it has warned China against using force to take control of the island.

The documentary is a reminder of the growing tensions between China and Taiwan. It is also a reminder of China's growing military power. The documentary is likely to further increase tensions between China and Taiwan, and it could make a conflict more likely.
