It is because the relationships between the oil and economic growth, social stability reform of military affairs, and even the national security are in separate. Therefore, the acquisition of oil and oil line security has become an important consideration for the maintenance national security strategy and protection of national benefits. Since ancient times, maritime transport has become a most affordable way for strategic material and substantial goods carriage. To maintain the sustainable development of china’s economic lifeline is the acquisition and transmission of energy and maritime oil transport which account for the highest proportion. That is to say, marine oil line security maintenance and the corresponding development of military has become one of the basic combat training of PLA; and the most important part is the overall combat integration of the military power projection and space superiority. The overall development of the PLA in recent years with economic growth and the international public opinion of “china treat theory” influence have gradually transited from the advantages of “quantity to the evolution of “quality”. Although the strategy of China while emphasis on the “people’s war” has not been modified with the transition to gain the economic strength thus improving the abilities of national security, expanding benefits and striving for international status, the next stop is to reinforce the national defense and military strength in developing the “socialism with Chinese characteristics”. The PLA has to guarantee “the win a limited war under high tech conditions”, and gradually evolve from pelagic navy, aerospace control and multi-dimensional integration system, in order to safe guard China’s oceanic safety which farther than 600 miles, and to achieve the global real-time and long-range strike power.
