"The Chinese government is trying to send Pyongyang a signal that if they continue to be so provocative, China will just leave the North Koreans to themselves," said Zhu Feng, director of Peking University's Center for International and Strategic Studies.
South Korea's new defense minister has called for tougher action against North Korean attacks, local media reported, as tension mounted after an artillery exchange and with China and the United States getting drawn into the row.

Hang on, is he saying that South Korea are going to dish up a "thousand fold" retaliatory strike, or only is further attacks occur?
Media is making it sound like they are going to respond with retaliation regardless

South Korea is considering redefining North Korea as its "main enemy" in its upcoming defense white paper for the first time in six years after the two countries exchanged deadly artillery barrages earlier this week, an official said Saturday.
The U.S. imperialists and south Korean puppet war-like forces announced a plan to stage combined exercises in the West Sea of Korea from Nov. 28 to Dec. 1, according to south Korean Yonhap News.
To be involved in this saber-rattling are USS George Washington and various type warships such as cruisers, destroyers, patrol boats and escort warships and antisubmarine aircraft as well as huge aggression forces of the U.S. and south Korea.
The Command of the U.S. Forces in south Korea announced that the combined war maneuvers were aimed to demonstrate the "alliance" with south Korea.
The situation on the Korean Peninsula is inching closer to the brink of war due to the reckless plan of those trigger-happy elements to stage again the war exercises targeted against the DPRK in wake of the grave military provocation they perpetrated against the territorial waters of the DPRK side in the West Sea of Korea while staging the Hoguk war maneuvers for aggression against the DPRK.
