CF160-CAPP Ch04 87 4. Compensating for Deficiencies: Doctrinal Evolution in the Chinese People’s Liberation Army: 1978–1999 By Paul H. B. Godwin198 Everything in war is simple, but the simplest thing is difficult. —Carl Von Clausewitz Past as Prologue Immediately following the Korean War, China began, with extensive Soviet assistance, to develop the military capabilities of a great power. China’s military leadership was seeking to overcome the challenge they had faced since the Red Army of Workers and Peasants was founded on 1 August 1927: How to defeat an adversary superior in the means of war? Defense modernization programs initiated in the mid-1950s were to ensure that a future Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA—as all four services are collectively named) would never again face an enemy equipped with superior arms. To meet this challenge, Beijing sought the entire panoply of modern weaponry from nuclear- tipped ballistic missiles through long-range bombers to fighter aircraft, tanks, armored vehicles, artillery, destroyers, and submarines. When in the late-1950s the USSR refused support for nuclear-powered attack and ballistic missile submarines (SSN/SSBN), China initiated its own programs. Doctrinal adjustment followed the weaponry being acquired. By the late-1950s, Marshal Ye Jianying would dub these changes “People’s War Under Modern Conditions.” Mao Zedong’s domestic and foreign polices brought these modernizing ambitions to an end. His 1950s clash with an officer corps that he believed too willing to accept an expensive, technology-heavy Soviet military doctrine and to reject his principle of “man over weapons” has been thoroughly examined in ________________ 198The author is Non-Resident Scholar, Asia-Pacific Program, Atlantic Council of the United States. 88 Ellis Joffe’s now-classic study.199 This initial conflict with his military chiefs must be seen in the larger context of Mao’s split with the USSR and his radical domestic policies to build a revolutionary society. Following a series of foreign policy disagreements and growing distrust between Mao and Khrushchev, Moscow sought to bludgeon Beijing into accepting the USSR’s leadership and policies. The Soviet Union canceled its support for Beijing’s nuclear weapons program in 1959 and in the summer of 1960 severed essentially all of its assistance programs—both civil and military. With the exception of the nuclear weapons programs, succeeding years saw Chinese defense industrial base and research and development (R&D) infrastructure erode inexorably into obsolescence. By the mid-1970s, China’s defense industries were capable only of building weapons and equipment based on Soviet technologies of the 1950s. The defense R&D infrastructure was equally harmed and incapable of designing and developing weapons and equipment meeting the demands of late- twentieth-century warfare. Eroding defense industrial and R&D capabilities were paralleled by the PLA’s years of involvement in Mao Zedong’s monomaniacal domestic political campaigns, especially the Cultural Revolution of 1966 to 1976. Over a decade of less-than-adequate training reduced China’s armed forces to an ineffective fighting force. Deng Xiaoping’s mid-1970s assessment that the PLA had become an aging, overstaffed, arrogant, obsolescent giant incapable of conducting modern warfare200 was borne out by its poor performance during the 1979 incursion into Vietnam.201 On the eve of the reform period in the late- 1970s, therefore, the modernization and doctrinal evolution of the PLA were at a historic low point. This chapter analyzes the developments in these two realms since 1978 and is divided into the following three sections: general war with the USSR; limited, local war; and post-Desert Storm high-tech war. In each of these three time periods the assessment of the security environment and the PLA’s doctrinal evolution confronted serious deficiencies in equipment, personnel, and training and required corrections that relied more on creative workarounds than on technology. ________________ 199Ellis Joffe, Party and Army: Professionalism and Political Control in the Chinese Officer Corps 1949–1964 (Cambridge: Harvard East Asian Monographs, 1967). 200Deng Xiaoping, “Speech at an Enlarged Meeting of the Military Commission of the Party Central Committee” (14 July 1975), in Joint Publications Research Service, China Report (hereafter JPRS-China Report), 31 October 1983, p. 19. 201See Harlan W. Jencks, “China’s ‘Punitive’ War on Vietnam: A Military Assessment,” Asian Survey, Vol. XIX, No. 8 (August 1979), pp. 801–815. 89 Definitions Three terms are at the center of this analysis: military doctrine, strategy, and operations. Doctrine consists of the fundamental principles guiding those who plan the use of military forces. These principles are drawn from experience, analysis of past wars, and speculative analysis of potential future wars. Strategy defines the way in which military forces are employed to achieve the desired outcome of an actual or potential conflict. Doctrine and strategy are intimately linked, for doctrinal principles have a strong determining effect on a chosen strategy. Operations are the campaigns conducted or planned to achieve a strategy’s objective. Operational doctrine consists of the principles guiding the use of military forces to conduct the operations. For the past two decades, Chinese military journals have focused primarily on analyses of operational doctrine. Defense Modernization Strategy in 1979: Walking on Two Legs Deng’s approach to defense modernization was part of a much broader strategy to bring China into the ranks of the world’s leading powers early in the twenty- first century. In the mid- to late-1970s, China’s military security community had sought to raise the threat of Soviet invasion to crisis proportions. Deng’s defense programs, however, were not focused primarily on improving the PLA’s ability to defend against a possible Soviet attack. He viewed Moscow’s “threat” as neither imminent nor dangerous enough to warrant the massive diversion of resources from civil to military requirements sought by much of China’s security community.202 Defense modernization therefore followed a two-part strategy that in Maoist terms could be called “walking on two legs.” The long- term strategic objective was to create a largely self-sufficient defense establishment capable of developing and sustaining modern forces sufficient both for defense and to grant China the military status of a world power. A second objective was to improve the PLA’s near-term combat effectiveness using the weapons and equipment in its current inventory. These two processes were intimately related. If the PLA was to become capable of effectively using its current and then more technologically sophisticated weapons and equipment as they were introduced in the future, the groundwork ________________ 202For a thorough discussion of the debate over defense and security issues for the years 1973 through 1978, see Harry Harding, “The Domestic Politics of China’s Global Posture, 1973–1978,” in Thomas Fingar, ed., China’s Quest for Independence: Policy Evolution in the 1970s (Boulder: Westview Press, 1980), pp. 43–96. 90 had to be laid before more advanced weaponry entered the inventory. In short, defense modernization was to be incremental and slow. Limitations on Doctrinal Change There were six constraints on doctrinal change. First, with investment priorities placed on the civil sector of the economy, defense budgets would be fettered. Second, China’s obsolescent defense industrial base was incapable of placing modern weapons and equipment into serial production. There could be no quick upgrading of PLA weapons and equipment. Third, the bulk of the PLA officer corps (referred to as cadre because there were no formal military ranks until 1987) was over-aged, undereducated, and incapable of understanding and conducting modern warfare. Fourth, the armed forces themselves were neither organized nor trained for contemporary warfare. Fifth, the logistics and command and control systems were incapable of supporting the operational doctrine of a modern battlefield. Sixth, the doctrine, strategy, and concepts of operations directing the armed forces were as antiquated as the PLA’s arms and equipment, requiring Beijing to rebuild the armed forces’ centers of research and professional military education.203 These constraints meant there was no capability within China’s defense establishment to rapidly transform the PLA into a modern combat force. Even if modern arms were available, China’s armed forces were incapable of successfully undertaking the doctrinal, organizational, logistics, maintenance, and training changes required to transform the PLA into an effective, late- twentieth-century combat force. It was thus understood from the very beginning that doctrinal change could not be successful without reconstructing and reforming China’s entire defense establishment. Discussions in China’s military journals and official statements supported the principle that doctrinal change would be cautious. Change was to ensure combat capabilities using existing arms and equipment were maximized and not undermined by doctrinal demands that could not be fulfilled. In the fall of 1979, China’s defense minister, Xu Xiangqian, and Xiao Ke, who was charged with revitalizing the PLA’s research centers and professional military education, laid out the problem. Both were undoubtedly reflecting on ________________ 203In 1979, Xiao Ke, President and Political

This was followed by information disseminated by the Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan on the departure of the military personnel and equipment of the Nakhijevan Combined Army of Azerbaijan to Turkey to take part in the joint military exercise. According to the Turkish media reports, the planned exercise is expected to be one of the largest winter military drills of recent times aimed, among others, at improving cooperation and coordination during joint military operations and testing combat capabilities under extreme weather conditions. Reportedly, the military exercise will involve tank divisions, heavy artillery, sniper teams, helicopters and special forces. At the previous meeting of the FSC we drew the attention of the participating States to this exercise. In response to our inquiry Turkish delegation here in Vienna insisted that the exercise was not notified under the Vienna Document because of the small number of the military personnel and equipment to be engaged in it.

  • Elite Politics and the Fourth Generation of Chinese Leadership
    Elite Politics and the Fourth Generation of Chinese Leadership ZHENG YONGNIAN & LYE LIANG FOOK* The personnel reshuffle at the 16th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party is widely regarded as the first smooth and peaceful transition of power in the Party’s history. Some China observers have even argued that China’s political succession has been institutionalized. While this paper recognizes that the Congress may provide the most obvious manifestation of the institutionalization of political succession, this does not necessarily mean that the informal nature of politics is no longer important. Instead, the paper contends that Chinese political succession continues to be dictated by the rule of man although institutionalization may have conditioned such a process. Jiang Zemin has succeeded in securing a legacy for himself with his “Three Represents” theory and in putting his own men in key positions of the Party and government. All these present challenges to Hu Jintao, Jiang’s successor. Although not new to politics, Hu would have to tread cautiously if he is to succeed in consolidating power. INTRODUCTION Although the 16th Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Congress ended almost a year ago, the outcomes and implications of the Congress continue to grip the attention of China watchers, including government leaders and officials, academics and businessmen. One of the most significant outcomes of the Congress, convened in Beijing from November 8-14, 2002, was that it marked the first ever smooth and peaceful transition of power since the Party was formed more than 80 years ago.1 Neither Mao Zedong nor Deng Xiaoping, despite their impeccable revolutionary credentials, successfully transferred power to their chosen successors.

  • International Security 24:1 66
    China’s Search for a John Wilson Lewis Modern Air Force and Xue Litai For more than forty- eight years, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) has sought to build a combat-ready air force.1 First in the Korean War (1950–53) and then again in 1979, Beijing’s leaders gave precedence to this quest, but it was the Gulf War in 1991 coupled with growing concern over Taiwan that most alerted them to the global revolution in air warfare and prompted an accelerated buildup. This study brieºy reviews the history of China’s recurrent efforts to create a modern air force and addresses two principal questions. Why did those efforts, which repeatedly enjoyed a high priority, fail? What have the Chinese learned from these failures and how do they deªne and justify their current air force programs? The answers to the ªrst question highlight changing defense con- cerns in China’s national planning. Those to the second provide a more nu- anced understanding of current security goals, interservice relations, and the evolution of national defense strategies. With respect to the ªrst question, newly available Chinese military writings and interviews with People’s Liberation Army (PLA) ofªcers on the history of the air force suggest that the reasons for the recurrent failure varied markedly from period to period. That variation itself has prevented the military and political leaderships from forming a consensus about the lessons of the past and the policies that could work. In seeking to answer the second question, the article examines emerging air force and national defense policies and doctrines and sets forth Beijing’s ra- tionale for the air force programs in light of new security challenges, particu- larly those in the Taiwan Strait and the South China Sea.

  • The Zuo Zhuan Revisited*
    《中國文化研究所學報》 Journal of Chinese Studies No. 49 - 2009 REVIEW ARTICLE Rethinking the Origins of Chinese Historiography: The Zuo Zhuan Revisited* Yuri Pines The Hebrew University of Jerusalem The Readability of the Past in Early Chinese Historiography. By Wai-yee Li. Cam- bridge, MA and London, England: Harvard University Asia Center, 2007. Pp. xxii + 449. $49.50/£36.95. The Readability of the Past in Early Chinese Historiography is a most welcome addition to the growing number of Western-language studies on the Zuo zhuan 左傳. Wai-yee Li’s eloquent book is the fruit of impeccable scholarship. It puts forward an abundance of insightful and highly original analyses and fully demonstrates the advantages of the skilful application of literary techniques to early Chinese historiography. This work is sure to become an indispensable tool for any scholar interested in the Zuo zhuan or early Chinese historiography in general. Furthermore, many of Li’s observations are likely to encourage further in-depth research on this foundational text. To illustrate the importance of The Readability of the Past, it is worth high- lighting its position vis-à-vis prior Western-language studies on the Zuo zhuan. Oddly enough, despite its standing as the largest pre-imperial text, despite its canonical status, and despite its position as a fountainhead of Chinese historiography—the Zuo zhuan was virtually neglected by mainstream Occidental Sinology throughout the twentieth century. Notwithstanding the pioneering (and highly controversial) study of Bernhard Karlgren, “On the Authenticity and Nature of the Tso Chuan,” which was published back in 1928, the Zuo zhuan rarely stood at the focus of scholarly endeavour.1 The only Western-language publication dedicated entirely to * This review article was prepared with the support by the Israel Science Foundation (grant No.

    Navy RPA Comments- through 12/18/2020 I object to the Navy’s proposal to use our State Parks for training. There are serious problems with the proposal. Allowing the Navy to use our State Parks for training would further militarize our society, taking over a large number of parks (29) for military training. We use our parks for peace, solitude, getting back to nature, getting in tune with our family and ourselves. There is no need to use these spaces. Stop, just stop. This is a terrible idea. I firmly object. This is wrong. Stop.1 The Navy has and continues to destroy our state and national parks, our homes, environment, wildlife and communities with toxic jet noise and war games. Our State Parks are for us the Citizens, not military war games. Just say no to the Bullish Toxic Navy.2 I OBJECT to the Navy’s proposal to use our State Parks for training! There are serious problems with the proposal. Allowing the Navy to use our State Parks for training would further militarize our society, taking over a large number of parks (29) for military training. One of the key responsibilities for civil authorities is to tell the military when enough is enough. Just say NO to using public parks for military training!3 In these days of great division in our civil society, we don't need stealthy men in camo uniforms toting toy guns around our State and County Parks. People frequent parks to escape tension, not to encounter more. Keep the Navy commando training out of our parks!4 Please don’t let the military train in our parks.5 I am vehemently opposed to allowing military training in our 29 public parks.

    “Train hard, fi ght easy.” The Russian 18th century General Aleksandr Norberg Johan toFight Training Vasilievich Suvorov (see cover) is said to never have lost a battle. The main idea of his dictum is clear. Armed forces train to fi ght. The more they train, the better they get. Exercises are primarily a way to develop capabilities in units, build the fi ghting power of a force and, ultimately, the military power of the state. How did military exercises contribute to the fi ghting power of Russia’s Armed Forces in 2011 – 2014? Based on reporting in Russian open sources, the main conclusion in this report is that the Russian Armed Forces exercises enabled them to train how to launch and fi ght large-scale joint inter-service operations, i.e. launching and waging inter-state wars Training to Fight – Russia’s Major Military Exercises 2011–2014 Johan Norberg FOI-R--4128--SE ISSN1650-1942 www.foi.se December 2015 Johan Norberg Training to Fight – Russia’s Major Military Exercises 2011–2014 Press Bild/Cover: TT/The Art Collector/Heritage.
