Chinese Orders, Turn 51. Establish new alternate sources of covert funding and operation in Taiwan, to replace those assets burned in the previous failure.
2. Temporarily close the North Korean border, allowing food aid and refugees to cross the border. Reduce all oil shipments to North Korea, along with steel, iron, machined goods, and the such, by 25%, to avoid preventing the North Korean population from being able to heat their homes or fuel their power plants. Redeploy military forces to the Shenyang Military Region in order to enforce this mandate.
2A. In order to "deter accidental airstrikes" against the food aid shipments, offer to the North Koreans (RE:
Erils, include a note in your orders if you accept) to allow Chinese guards to escort the aid shipments, so long as it remains outside of the warzone.
2B. Begin establishment of refugee camps at the Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture to temporarily house refugees from North Korea, with an eventual aim at their return home once the war ends.
2C. Warn North Korea that any use of nuclear, biological, or chemical weaponry may result in a reconsideration of those goods permitted to cross into North Korea.
3. Move naval forces into the Yellow Sea. Punctiliously observe the maintenance of our national waters, and declare Chinese waters and airspace inviolable by any war combatants to either side.
4. Continue expansion of submarine forces.
5. Offer to send civilian relief (food and temporary housing) to South Korea to aid the refugees from Seoul, including the deployment of our remaining two Type 071 amphibious docks to Mokpo and Incheon, along with sufficient military escort to confirm their security in a warzone. Stress to North Korea that this is not military aid.
6. Accelerate funding in China's space program.
7. Establish an international commission with Vietnam, the Philippines, Brunei, and Malaysia to determine the status of the Spratley and Paracel Islands. Continue to maintain claims to the entirety of the Paracel Islands (which are Chinese-controlled in their entirety
de facto as well) in order to maintain the military security of Hainan Island and Chinese interests in the South China Sea, but signal a willingness to negotiate on the long-term status of the Spratley Islands. Propose as well a possible extension of the 1978 economic agreements regarding the exploitation of South China Sea oil between Vietnam and China to a possible multinational consortium comprising all of the affected nations to govern mineral and oil rights in the region for all of the involved nations. Offer the potential for economic investment in the other nations in return for coming to an agreement, pointing to our fruitful partnerships with Central Asia and Mongolia.
7A. Should negotiations on the South China Sea succeed, begin steps towards the implementation of the proposed military alliance with the ASEAN nations.
1. If the North Koreans accept the offer for Chinese guards, use elite forces as our guards, and have them scout the terrain as they move.
2. Continue training our covert agents for attacks on DPRK WMD facilities
3. Pursuant to Public Order 2, deploy sufficient forces to invade North Korea should the need arise
4. Begin mass-production of the anti-ship weaponry for broad deployment to the PLAN, should the prototypes have been completed. If not, encourage its completion as the time estimate has arrived.
1. Amphibious Ships/Submarines: 10/11 months
2. Carriers: 19/20 months
3. Astana Pipeline: 11/11 months
OOC: And remember, people who take the middle road are open to enfilading fire from both sides. ^_^
