Hu Liren: Xi Jinping is in danger! The Zhang Youxia case has already led dozens of CCP military leader families to join forces against Xi.
In this video, Hu Liren continues to analyze Xi Jinping's dangerous position within the military regarding the Zhang Youxia event, arguing that the lack of a final verdict on Zhang Youxia indicates that Xi Jinping is now in a predicament when dealing with the old forces in the military. Hu Liren reviews the seniority and prestige of Zhang Youxia's father, Zhang Zongxun, in the CCP army, pointing out that Zhang Youxia was heavily used by Xi Jinping precisely to stabilize the old military leaders, the Red Army families, and military factions. The video further judges that the Zhang Youxia event affects not only individual fate, but the collective sense of security of the old military families, including the Ten Great Marshals, the Ten Great Generals, the Colonels General, and the Lieutenant Generals; if Xi Jinping handles it too harshly, it could trigger a systemic backlash within the military, escalating the struggle within the CCP high level from internal strife to a crisis at the military level.
Alright, hello everyone.
Today's first live stream has begun. Let's talk again about how dangerous Xi Jinping is currently.
Actually, after Zhang Youxia was arrested, there has been no final verdict up to now, none at all. It was only announced that this person disobeyed superior orders, which in fact means undermining the responsibility system of the Chairman of the Central Military Commission.
It is hard for everyone to understand now. You might not know about Old Zhang Youxia's father, Zhang Zongxun. Most people don't know him; he was very low-profile.
I'm telling you, after 1949, after the CCP took power, there were the Ten Great Marshals and the Ten Great Generals. Who came after the Ten Great Generals? Those were the Colonels General. Zhang Zongxun was a standout among the entire military circle of Colonels General.
Why was he a standout? As you know, because Zhang Zongxun graduated from Whampoa. Think about it, a person like him was a combat general, a figure with illustrious military achievements. He fought very fiercely in the war to defend Yan'an.
As everyone knows, a part of the CCP army came from Whampoa, meaning they came from the Kuomintang; another part were actually just 'earth hats' (local militia), like He Long, who carried cleavers and acted as bandits in the countryside. Zhang Zongxun and those people were completely different. Zhang Zongxun had a formal education, and his prestige in the entire CCP army was extremely high, extremely high. He came from a regular military background, unlike other people in the Communist Party.
As you know, it was like this: there were the Ten Great Marshals, ten Great Generals, 57 Colonels General, and 177 Lieutenant Generals. Among those 57 Colonels General, I'll mention a few names that everyone knows: Xu Shiyou, he was a Colonel General, not a Great General or a Marshal; Song Renqiong, as you know, also; Hong Xuezhi, Zhang Aiping. Everyone knows Zhang Aiping, the former Minister of National Defense. Zhang Aiping in the 80s, during the Deng Xiaoping era, was once a Great General.
So Zhang Zongxun and Zhang Aiping were actually on the same level. In other words, Zhang Zongxun was very high and respected within the Communist Party.
As for Zhang Youxia, you see, after he was gradually promoted, he was not greedy. Corruption is very normal within the Communist Party, but he definitely does not belong to the category of 'big corruption.' If he were a big corrupt official, Xi Jinping would not have promoted him, nor would he have had any interest in doing so.
It is precisely because he and his father had very high prestige in the entire military circle that Xi Jinping promoted him. Why did Xi Jinping promote him? Actually, it was for stability maintenance. Maintaining what stability? The stability of these old military leaders.
How many? The Ten Great Marshals, the Ten Great Generals, 57 Colonels General, 177 Lieutenant Generals—these are the people within the Communist Party that cannot be touched, absolutely cannot be touched. If you touch them, things are very likely to go wrong.
This was the reason why Xi Jinping wanted to promote Zhang Youxia at the time. And not many years after Zhang Youxia was promoted—he was promoted in 2017—he successfully completed all the tasks Xi Jinping assigned to him. He also ensured that Xi Jinping ascended the throne and ensured that no military coup occurred during the constitutional amendment.
The possibility of a military coup during the constitutional amendment was very high. This is what Zhang Youxia, the son of Zhang Zongxun, did for Xi Jinping. So I think Zhang Youxia is absolutely not wronged... he and Xi Jinping were in the same boat.
I predicted the final result long ago. I have said countless times that Xi Jinping must eventually move against Zhang Youxia because he holds military power.
This is not about whether you have a good relationship with me. In the Communist Party, there is no such thing as 'relationships.' Are you still talking about relationships? Everyone inside the Communist Party is a killing demon, especially in the current situation.
But you should know that now in the military, after passing through the Mao era, these people in the military are very united. They know that the army must absolutely not be taken away by others; it must be controlled by those old military leaders, and they control the so-called warlords in various places of the entire Chinese army.
So now Xi Jinping has actually touched the cheese of the military, and he touched the most influential ones. Zhang Youxia is actually quite influential. Many of the other Great Generals had their entire families overthrown and wiped out during the Cultural Revolution; they were already cleared out of the military.
But there are still some, dozens more, in total high-ranking old military leaders of the CCP: 177 Lieutenant Generals, 57 Colonels General, 10 Great Generals, 10 Marshals, totaling over 200. These are over 200 families. So when people talk about 400 families firmly controlling the CCP, many have calculated it—many have calculated that 400 families firmly control the CCP, among which over 200 families are in the military; the other 100-plus families are among the old party and government officials of the CCP, unrelated to the military. The military is controlled by them, by over 200 families.
Now Xi Jinping is like this: these people in the military are already telling Xi Jinping through Xi Yuanping: this thing you are doing is already too much. You are doing this, and for us, there is no guarantee; we could also be dealt with by you at will.
Now everyone is in a state of confrontation, as a balance, no one has made a move. A small group might have moved before. There was a small incident a while ago where a move was made, but the big one hasn't happened yet; everyone is waiting.
Waiting for what? Waiting for the hammer to fall on the Zhang Youxia event. Once the hammer falls on the Zhang Youxia event, if they believe Xi Jinping has not handled it well, then it is very likely they will move immediately, move immediately.
Xi Jinping is now extremely dangerous, extremely dangerous.
This also explains what I have said before: Xi Jinping has not left Beijing for dozens of days, over 200 days. Up to now, Xi Jinping has not left Beijing. Except for one trip to North Korea and one trip to Xiong'an, there has been nothing else. Some say he went to Shanghai, but going to Shanghai is 'no picture, no truth,' only a report was published, and they say he went and returned on the same day. I don't think it's likely; I don't think he went to Shanghai.
Because usually, if Xi Jinping goes to Shanghai, it would be a major event, there would definitely be pictures and videos as proof, but there are none.
So the current Xi Jinping is like an ant on a hot pot. Now what he is waiting for is that he cannot easily handle the Zhang Youxia event.
The name Zhang Youxia is still listed on the Xinhua News Agency website and the CCP Central Committee website. The photo is also there, the name is also there, but you just can't click into it. You can click others, but you can't click into Zhang Youxia. This is also a very strange thing.
Because Zhang Youxia has been arrested for several months now, I have clicked it, and there is no way to click into it. But Zhang Youxia's name has been listed there all this time, listed all this time.
Alright, let's take a look. Look, the Party Central Committee, the 20th Party Central Committee organs. You click in, let's see, Zhang Youxia's name is still there. This is what Xi Jinping is most afraid of. But if you go to click him, it won't go in. You click He Lifeng and it goes in immediately, see? It goes in immediately. But clicking Zhang Youxia doesn't go in.
So in these events, you can't click Zhang Youxia, you simply cannot click into it. This shows that Xi Jinping is now very terrified. He doesn't even dare to take down Zhang Youxia's photo, he doesn't dare take it down. He is afraid.
Now, how did I get this news? I'll tell you clearly, a relative of a Great General's family is a good friend of me, their second generation. I call them big brother or big sister, they are about 20 years older than me, now nearly 80, 70-something nearly 80.
This news was revealed to me by them. This person is very familiar with the Zhang family. Other things I cannot say, I won't mention the name. Once the name is mentioned, everyone will know. This person's fame is much louder than Zhang Zongxun's, the name is louder than Zhang Zongxun's.
Now everyone is in a state of confrontation, and everyone is watching.
What is my relationship with them? Before I went to Beijing, I lived in their house, we have a good relationship. Now you know, right?
So now Xi Jinping is in a predicament with the Zhang Youxia event, he almost cannot get down. Think about it, Zhang Youxia has been arrested for so long, and people simply cannot imagine it.
Look, this is the CCP Central Committee website, look you click in, look Zhang Youxia is still like this. Let's see, he doesn't dare touch Zhang Youxia, he doesn't dare touch.
I have said before that Zhang Youxia was arrested and taken to a base of the Central Guard Bureau. A base is in the south of Beijing, near that airport, there is a base called the Gu'an base. In that base.
When Zhang Youxia entered, he was on a hunger strike,
These messages may not be known to the outside world. I once mentioned this in my program when Zhang Youxia was first arrested this year. It seems something happened to Zhang Youxia, and later Zhang Youxia went on a hunger strike, and then he was intubated; it must have been intubation.
Alright, that's all for this topic.
Zhang Youxia's pot is about to boil, I'll tell you again, it's about to boil. Everyone wait, wait for this news, and see what the final result for Xi Jinping will be.
I hope, everyone hopes that the CCP can get rid of him all at once, get rid of him all at once. Xi Jinping is definitely at high risk now.
Just think about it, the leader of an army and a country, for over 200 days, now about 250 days, has been in Beijing. He doesn't dare go anywhere else, doesn't dare go anywhere.
Okay, that's it. Thank you all for watching, and we'll see you in the next video.
