Chinese will Intimidate but will not Fight
Let us leave the Chinese propaganda aside; Are Chinese today or in 2020 or in the future capable of invading india or Taiwan and sustain that invasion?
It is next to impossible unless you are paid by the Chinese to think like that. You don’t have to look too far for evidence. Only a month back the Chinese concentrated a massive force across the Taiwan Straits to invade Taiwan. They sent planes and missiles and their navy new ships skirting the island but then backed off. Their main argument about is that they wished to achieve unification without war. Well in that case what were 600,000 soldiers, 1200 planes and 87 ships all concentrated around Taiwan straits and ready for war were doing. I don’t want to believe that they were on a picnic. I do not want to believe that the American military might arrived, no they were thinking about it but still far away. If diplomacy is the answer then concentrating this massive force was unnecessary, just keep talking.
Truthfully, except the official propaganda of Chinese might, they are paper tigers. Their very advanced fighters are not so advanced, their navy is totally new devoid of any battle experience and their military of mostly conscripts will not deliver results except by stealth as in the Himalayas in 2020.
No sir, they grabbed a few peaks in the Ladakh region in the spring of 2020 to set off a military confrontation. When India captured the Kailash Heights, they were stunned and wished a solution. That is how the paper tigers behave. It took them 2 years to vacate whatever they had occupied in 2020 but their strategic insult was great both in the Himalayas and in the Taiwan straits.
That is the way, Chinese will behave for next 10 to 20 years. They are to be prevented militarily, diplomatically and strategically staging a surprise.
