Hu Liren: Xi Jinping has no foundation in the military, advises all citizens to stock up on 3 months of food and wait for the CCP to change before the end of August!

In this video, Hu Liren analyzes the power crisis of Xi Jinping within the military, arguing that Xi, by purging the Zhang Youxia system and its related military networks, has offended a large number of veteran officers, red families, and old military forces. Hu points out that Xi himself lacks genuine military experience, and his confidants such as Cai Qi, Li Xi, and Li Qiang also lack a military foundation, relying only on the Beijing Garrison system and a few trusted allies to maintain security. The video further judges that the CCP’s high‑level struggle is no longer just an internal party‑government fight, but may involve a "civil war" risk within the armed forces; if the situation spirals out of control, rapid lockdowns, troop deployments, and interruptions to urban food supplies could occur. Therefore, it advises domestic citizens to stock up at least until the end of August, awaiting the reopening of Mao Zedong Memorial Hall and the clarification of the Zhang Youxia case.

Alright, hello everyone.

Let's continue talking about Xi Jinping.

Xi now has no foundation in the military. He has committed too many crimes and offended almost all veteran officers.

These veteran officers have descendants. Many of their descendants are still in the military. Some families have left the military system, but they still have influence and mobilizing power. Most importantly, for the CCP internally, they have "legitimacy" and internal legitimacy.

Do you understand this sentence? The CCP as a whole certainly lacks legitimacy, but for those inside it, these veteran officers and old families possess legitimacy.

They believe that during the Mao era everyone already suffered losses. Almost every family suffered setbacks and was toppled. Now Xi is walking the same path, which they see as a deep‑seated threat.

So these people have already begun to rise; Beijing has let the wind out. This is the challenge Xi currently faces.

Xi is now hiding under the table, afraid to speak out, because all the officials he promoted have no real roots in the military.

Does Cai Qi have roots? Does Li Xi have roots? Does Li Qiang have roots? None of them do. These people can be taken down at any time.

Only Zhang Shengmin has roots. Zhang Shengmin is a cousin or close relative of Xi; they are essentially in the same camp. You could also view him as an extension of Xi. Xi himself has no foundation, and he has offended everyone.

Now, Xi Yuanping has already become fearful and fed up, because Xi Yuanping usually interacts with these people. In their regular conversations, they can already feel that these people are turning against Xi and are dissatisfied.

What is their internal discourse? Clearly, after Deng Xiaoping's reform and opening, everyone had food to eat. Let's set aside anti‑CCP rhetoric and look at their own language.

From their perspective, the Deng era meant food, prosperity, a shared world, no threats, and both power and profit. What is the situation now? Power is gone, profit is gone. The so‑called power means our heads can be manipulated at will. You can manipulate us however you like.

Including Zhang Youxia. Everyone should know that Zhang Youxia's downfall and arrest did not affect only him; hundreds of people under him were also arrested. These people had direct ties to Zhang.

So think about it: Xi is now striking hard. Those people will also strike hard.

To prevent trouble for himself, Xi gathered all the families in Beijing, because Beijing is his territory and the Beijing Garrison is the position he can still firmly control. However, peripheral units are much harder for him to control.

Have you heard that Xi recently dared to inspect the Eastern Theater Command? Or the Western, Southern, or Northern Theater Commands? He does not dare.

He used to dare. He used to wear camouflage, act like a drama, issuing orders everywhere. Now he does not dare.

One could say Xi's moves are all blunders. Every step he takes now plants a landmine for himself. He can barely move.

This episode is a reminder: from now until the end of the month, until the final decision on the reopening of Mao Zedong Memorial Hall, what will happen? In this scenario, if the CCP enters an internal war—not just a factional fight, as I mentioned in other programs—it is an internal war. Xi has reached the point of civil war.

For example, between party and government, you might call it a factional fight. South American countries also have factional fights. But now Xi has offended the military. He has no foundation in the armed forces. In this case, it is definitely not a ordinary factional fight, but a civil war.

If such a situation occurs, do you know what will happen?

All highways will be completely blocked, just like the lockdowns before. All roads will be sealed by troops; only military vehicles can travel, everything will be requisitioned by the army. Food supplies will disappear; civilians' food, especially in big cities, will face shortages.

Therefore, I have told my domestic friends to stock up for three months, until the end of August. Once the Mao Memorial Hall reopens and the decision is set, the situation will stabilize. That's the timeframe.

Moreover, in July the Zhang Youxia case is likely to become public. Everyone is waiting to see how it will be judged.

Since Xi came to power, disasters have spread everywhere. Ordinary people can no longer get by. The people have no weapons; even if they had weapons, they would be used against him. So the Communist Party cannot allow the people to have weapons.

Where are the weapons? The weapons are in the military.

The veteran officers I mentioned may already have some ammunition, or they may carry weapons regularly. These people are also hard to stop.

Look at China in the past: such a huge country, how could anyone control it? Does Xi think he can control the army and the people just by bragging? Can he manipulate troops at will? Absolutely not.

He was wrong. He treated the troops as if they were part of the party‑government system that he could manipulate at will. Now he has brought trouble upon himself.

He is now waiting there, not knowing which day something will happen. So he can only retreat to Beijing.

Now Xi has been turned over. How? He is awaiting judgment. He is no longer the one manipulating others; now others will manipulate him.

People gather together. He thinks that because he once held the title of Chairman of the Central Military Commission, he is truly a soldier. He is actually a fake soldier. Do you understand? A fake soldier. He has no genuine military experience. The troops have no connection with him. His previous political career has no link to the armed forces.

You need to know that in China the military is a highly independent institution.

For example, a unit stationed in Jiangsu cannot be mobilized by the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee or Government. It ignores them. If the party‑government wants the unit to cooperate, they must comply.

How powerful are the troops?

In the 1980s, when China lacked supplies, these troops and military officials engaged in corruption. What did they do? They smuggled domestic supplies abroad.

The early wealth of Shenzhen came from this. These people set up a trading company in Hong Kong and told Hong Kong businesses, "Tell me what you need, I have it. As long as it exists in China, I can get it."

What did they rely on? Military procurement orders. They would directly approach provincial or local governments, say, "Give me X tons of supplies, we need it for the troops."

At that time you had no choice. The military's control over supplies was enormous. Military representatives would stand inside factories, and nothing could leave the factory except for the troops' orders.

That is the military.

Therefore Xi cannot manipulate the troops. He originally relied on Zhang Youxia to control the army. Now Zhang has been cut off by Xi himself, and everyone is watching his downfall.

So I advise ordinary Chinese citizens to stock up for three months. I keep saying the same thing: just like during the pandemic, I told my family to prepare at least three months to half a year, and they never lacked food or supplies.

Now Chinese people should do the same.

Remember, by the end of August, the Mao Memorial Hall will reopen, confirming whether the Xi dynasty will continue or become a Xi dynasty.

If it becomes a Xi dynasty, why can't they move Mao?

Mao is a symbolic tablet for hundreds of families. These families derive power and profit from Mao's legacy. Without Mao's tablet, they would have to beg Xi: "Give me a meal, and I will have food; deny me food, and I will go to prison."

Mao has become a virtual entity. He will no longer capture or seize them. These families hold Mao's tablet and feel safe.

But if they follow Xi, they become like the ordinary Chinese people, turned into ducks in a cage, ducks that can be pressed and manipulated by anyone.

So remember, my series of programs has been warning: something big is coming. Xi will have to face these veteran officers. I call them veteran officers, and they call themselves veteran officers.

Alright, that's all for this episode. Thank you for watching, and see you next time.
