中共從2013年〈中國武裝力量的多樣化運用〉，到2015年〈中國的軍事戰略〉專題性國防白皮書，都指涉當前共軍與大陸生存和發展安全問題，以及傳統和非傳統安全威脅相互交織的發展情勢。共軍戰略任務，不僅在確保海外利益安全，也在「維護新型領域安全和利益」，更具體複合著「一帶一路」建設的安全情勢。面對「一帶一路」沿線新興恐怖主義跨境犯罪威脅，若「武力多樣運用」採取反暴亂（Counterinsurgency）軍事行動，恐將涉及共軍境外投射實質能力的質疑，以及介入他國國家內政或區域安全之疑慮；相對的，若只侷限在「柔性武力存在」，僅限縮在維和（Peacekeeping）範疇，又有悖於「積極承擔國際責任和義務」的政策期待。事實上，中共卻不斷調整政策與戰略部署，在倡議「一帶一路」建設，又需以「武力多樣運用」為依托關係。中共顯有藉此論述政權統治、民族主義情緒，以及對外擴張政策的合理性之必要。

From “The diversified employment of China's armed forces” to “China's Military Strategy,” they all refer to China's armed forces how to meet the needs of its security and development interests. In addition, traditional and non-traditional security challenges interweave and interact. As the China's Military Strategy not only effectively secures China’s overseas interests, but also safeguards China’s security and interests in new domain. That is a complex of security trend in “One Belt, One Road” building. Facing the rising terrorism and transnational crime threat, if China adapts Special Operations Forces (PLA combat missions and operations abroad) to counterinsurgency, its capability will be raised arguments and whether interfere in other country affairs or regional security. Relatively, when SOF limits in peacekeeping, it will be contrary to earnestly fulfill its international responsibilities and obligations. In fact, China has adjusted policy and strategy deployments in the diversified employment of China's armed forces in order to provide security guarantee and strategic support for “One Belt, One Road” building. Obviously, China needs to discourse its legitimacy on regime ruling, national sentiment, and expanding foreign policy by means of the diversified employment of China's armed forces.
