Wow that'd be a crazy coincidence if China decided to invade Taiwan right after we ran out of missiles and had our fleets concentrated on the opposite side of the world. Totally unpredictable.

That'd destroy their image and make the people of Taiwan hate them for many generations when it's much simpler to keep the status quo until the people of Taiwan want reunification.

their preferred strategy seems to be sit it out and let the people mingle.
