Would you believe that the Chinese Army has lost jest in confronting India In the Himalayas. They are at loss when their conscript soldiers refuse to go to high altitude to face of india. Winter is coming and test time for Chinese conscripts will be again at hand.
It is also evident with three Chinese commander change for Tibet-Sinkiang region, all of them, my guess refused to continue and get a bad name confronting iron fisted India. They, went back to almost peace stations along the North and South China Sea, where war of words for the last 70 years is on with no live shooting.
To shore up the troop morale the Chinese masters in Peking ordered to conduct a live fire exercise in the region. That did not scare the Indian commanders. Rather they had a first hand experience of Chinese capabilities.
Only, if the Chinese vacate the Hot Spring area and retreat from Depsang Plains, the matter will be over.
