Decapitation Drills: China Builds Mock Judiciary and Secret Tunnel to Prepare for Taiwan Occupation

An exclusive analysis by the Japanese newspaper #SankeiShimbun reveals that the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) has constructed a replica of Taipei's "Judicial Yuan" and a secret underground tunnel, escalating training to capture and process Taiwan's political and military leaders in the event of an invasion.

A detailed analysis of satellite images, obtained by the "Institute for National Fundamentals" think tank, has shed light on China's advanced preparations for a potential invasion of Taiwan. The core of these maneuvers is located at the vast Zhurihe Joint Tactical Training Base in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, the PLA's largest training ground.

Beyond the already-known structures, such as the "Fake Presidential Palace" and the "Fake Ministry of Foreign Affairs" of Taipei, the latest discovery is particularly concerning. Satellite data confirms the construction of a new building simulating Taiwan's "Fake Judicial Yuan" (Ministry of Justice), positioned adjacent to the mock Presidential Palace.

Crucially, this new construction includes a 280-meter underground tunnel connected directly to the Judicial Yuan building. Analysts believe that by training within a structure that faithfully reproduces the real one, the PLA aims to strengthen "decapitation operations" against the Taiwanese President. By extension, this prepares forces for the capture, detention, and potentially the symbolic "trial" or processing of Taipei's key political and military leadership.

The depth of Beijing's planning extends beyond the Presidential Palace. The construction of a red-roofed building, which resembles the Ministry of National Defense Logistics Command (responsible for mobilization) located opposite the Judicial Yuan in Taipei, suggests meticulous planning to neutralize the entire command and logistics chain.

The simulated training area has expanded significantly, growing to almost three times its previous size since 2020. This expansion reflects an escalation in military effort.

Satellite imagery has documented assault exercises. During maneuvers, armored vehicles were observed overcoming obstacles (likely simulating Taipei roadblocks) to advance toward the Fake Presidential Palace. Counter-training exercises (likely by a brigade-sized unit) have been conducted against hypothetical enemy forces guarding the area, confirming that the training continues non-stop as of August of the current year.

While the previous deliberate reveal of the "Fake Presidential Palace" was interpreted as psychological warfare, the construction of the "Fake Judiciary Chamber" and the underground tunnel indicates that the PLA's planning has entered a phase of extreme detail, focusing not just on territorial conquest, but on the rapid dismantling of Taiwan's core leadership and institutions.
