The incident that the Philippine Coast Guard failed to deliver supplies to the landing ship illegally "sitting on the beach" at Ren'ai Reef, and the Chinese Coast Guard boarded the ship carrying several Philippine Navy Special Operations Brigade soldiers to enforce the law is still fermenting. With the gradual disclosure of the details of the incident by the Philippine domestic media, it can be basically confirmed that many Philippine special forces who forced their way into the waters near Ren'ai Reef carried guns and other weapons, but these obviously failed to enable them to "protect themselves". In the face of several Chinese coastguard speedboats rushing towards them, the rigid inflatable boats taken by the Philippine special forces were firmly rammed into the ground, during which a Philippine soldier's finger was broken. In addition, the Philippine media said that the Chinese coast guard who boarded the Philippine speedboat also carried out "physical injuries" to this group of Filipino soldiers. To put it bluntly, these Filipino soldiers were beaten.

For the result of this game, domestic netizens naturally applauded, and the comment area of relevant reports was very lively. At the same time, however, some people made a confused voice: why were the distinguished Philippine special forces soldiers "overturned" by the Chinese maritime police as a paramilitary force? Why didn't the Philippine soldiers with guns dare to open fire? At first glance, this question is indeed on the point. As the "essence of the essence" of a country's armed forces, special forces soldiers turned their guns into useless "fire sticks" at a critical moment. They were not only easily disarmed by the other party on board, but even beaten by the other party. This is not what special forces should do. But in fact, as long as we think a little more, the reason is not difficult to understand.
Domestic large and medium-sized coast guard ships can generally carry speedboats
Regardless of the psychological factors of "guilty conscience due to illegal invasion of other countries' territorial waters", who says that these Filipinos are only facing front-line law enforcement personnel of China's maritime police? China's maritime police law enforcement speedboats with vast territorial waters, small tonnage, limited navigability and limited endurance can only perform tasks in coastal waters, and it is difficult to go deep into the hinterland of the South China Sea on their own. The maritime police law enforcement speedboats that appear in waters such as Ren'ai Reef and Huangyan Island in the South China Sea are basically carried by large and medium-sized maritime police ships with large tonnage and sufficient endurance. When large and medium-sized maritime police ships face some small boat targets with small size, good mobility and fast speed, they will send their own speedboats to deal with them.
The 76mm caliber main gun of the Chinese coast guard ship fires
That is to say, when the Chinese Coast Guard members handled this incident, the special forces on the Philippine ships saw not only the Chinese Coast Guard speedboats rushing towards them, but also the large tonnage coast guard ships cruising nearby. It is not ruled out that the muzzles of the 76mm caliber main guns and rapid fire guns of these coast guard ships have already targeted the Philippine ships illegally intruding into the adjacent waters of Ren'ai Reef. In the face of these powerful weapons that can easily "beat themselves to the ground", even if they are better than the Philippine special forces, they have to honestly surrender their guns and get beaten. Who dares to shoot at this scene?

In addition, from the successful disposal of the Chinese coast guard in the direction of Ren'ai Reef in the South China Sea, we may be able to read some deeper meaning, that is, China may have some changes in its foreign struggle strategy, from the slightly passive "waiting for the opponent to 'shoot first', then implementing defense and counterattack" to a more powerful "proactive defense". Although our goal is to defend, that is, to defend the territorial integrity of the motherland, the form of active attack will obviously give us more advantages in momentum and position, as well as more ideal coping means and results. As long as potential rivals dare not further escalate the situation, we will only hold the initiative in the struggle, they will have to follow the pace of China, and then gradually tired of coping, and the victory of the struggle will be ours.
China's foreign struggle strategy may change
It is believed that in the future, when facing similar struggles, we will still use this successful experience when necessary to take the initiative to solve problems, without even the opportunity to let the opponent "shoot first". The Philippines has become the first target to be used to test the water. It can only be said that the Little Marcos government deserves it.
