Military Corruption and Incompetence: Four Cases as Promised

Last September, I discussed the issue of corruption in the military and promised to provide specific examples in the future. Today, I fulfill that promise.

Here are four cases, covering the army, navy, air force, and strategic support forces. They are representative examples—not the sensational gossip variety, but instances that any discerning observer can recognize as genuine internal secrets, complete with units, names, and events that are verifiable for those with the means.

To protect my sources, I’ve processed the images. Last time I spoke about this, I immediately received phishing emails—ABC even checked some, disguised as official work emails. Hilarious. Over time, more phishing emails trickled in, the most recent just this past December. It seems military-related matters are among the most sensitive. Some people must be in a panic at the thought that my reach might extend into the military. Some might have even made promises to their superiors. Well, stop persistently sending me phishing emails. I’ve participated in such tactics myself in the past. Trying this on me is a waste of both our time and damages your image.

Today, I’m releasing internal information. Ordinary netizens might not feel much, but the military counter-espionage system is bound to be thrown into turmoil. That’s fine—keeps them busy. The CCP loves to use overkill, and we’re far from being mere “chickens.” Since you like inflating minor issues into major ones to justify your budget, I’ll give you a reason to embezzle some funds. But let me make it clear: if you harm any of our people, your fate will change. Our response to you will not be constrained by time or location. If our people’s families are affected, your families will not remain untouched.

No more nonsense. For safety reasons, I won’t release complete details but will summarize the four cases in text:

1. Case 1: Army Corruption** Hou Shoujun, director of the comprehensive warehouse of the Eastern Army, was suspected of bribery. From August 2017 to November 2019, Hou helped seven soldiers secure promotions and occupational skill certifications, receiving a total of 405,000 yuan. In March 2021, the Central Military Commission’s Discipline Inspection Commission (CMC-DIC) approved an investigation into Hou and placed him under detention.

2. Case 2: Navy Corruption** Wang Mingqiang, a staff sergeant with the security and services company of the Third Radar Brigade of the Navy’s Air Force, was suspected of embezzlement. Between December 2017 and December 2018, while serving as a staff officer in the brigade’s management department, Wang inflated procurement quantities and prices, embezzling 60,100 yuan for personal expenses and loan repayments. In April 2021, the CMC-DIC approved an investigation into Wang and detained him.

3. Case 3: Air Force Corruption** Du Sen, former finance section chief of the Air Force’s Xiangyun Station, violated financial discipline. Between January and April 2018, Du instructed subordinates to falsify invoices, embezzling 15,700 yuan for purchasing sportswear and personal items. In July 2020, Du was severely reprimanded by the Party and received a major demerit.

4. Case 4: Strategic Support Forces Corruption** Xu Shidong, an engineer (technical grade 8) at the 10th Division of the Northern Technical Reconnaissance Base of the Strategic Support Forces, was suspected of embezzlement and bribery. Between April 2015 and May 2019, Xu embezzled 226,200 yuan by inflating project costs and falsifying invoices. From June to October 2018, Xu helped a local company secure a project with his unit, receiving a bribe of 40,000 yuan. In December 2020, the CMC-DIC approved an investigation into Xu and detained him.

These cases span all branches of the military and focus on mid-to-lower-level officers, making them fairly representative. I’ll leave other cases for another time.

In terms of rank, these individuals are far below the likes of Xu Caihou and Guo Boxiong. In terms of sums, they’re nowhere near those high-profile central-level “tigers.” But compared to such colossal cases, this widespread corruption among mid-to-lower-level officers is the real bane of the CCP’s military.

Such a military has long lost the sharp edge of its founding days and has sunk into a lethargy indicative of a doomed regime. Against any truly sharp and spirited force, this military’s performance may not surpass that of Assad’s forces in Syria, and their defeat might come even swifter.

But even the most decayed military requires another force to bring it down, right?

This is akin to the CCP and the so-called “Party-State” system—like an old, crumbling house. You can talk about how rotten it is, how it’s just one step away from collapse. But if you don’t lift your foot and deliver that final kick, the house will keep teetering there, waiting out you and your son’s lifetimes.

All our strategies and actions—whether protests or propaganda—must ultimately be paired with military efforts to deliver that decisive blow.

Otherwise, no matter how much money or time you spend, another 30 years will pass, and all you’ll have done is squander another generation’s ideals, energy, and time.

If, after the advantageous period post-1989, resources and manpower had been invested into an uncompromising military struggle, the situation in China and the world today would be entirely different.

Similarly, if today’s anti-CCP activists continue to avoid or shy away from military struggle, focusing all their energy on monetizing online traffic while waiting for the CCP to collapse, then the chance of victory will be nil.

To those willing to take a different path, follow me.

In a showdown, victory belongs to the brave!
