Taiwan is a phenomenally trained and organized force with advanced technology. The island is also heavily fortified. Taiwan may be small but it is not to be underestimated because they have been training for this moment. Add into that Japan and South Korea? China would be S C R E W E D if they tried anything.
China's force is good for numbers and nothing else. Their soldiers are poorly trained and poorly equipped and the structure of their military is a joke. I said this in another post but all Taiwan would have to do is blow the three gorges. Maybe 3 missiles? Even if China did somehow take Taiwan their government would be ruined. I like to compare Taiwan to WWII era Switzerland. Hitler knew there was no way he could take Switzerland.
Fortifications are pointless on Taiwan, you can shell it with artillery forever from the mainland. If there is battle fought over Taiwan, Taiwan itself will fall for certain, the actual question is what the response would be
What good is Taiwan to the CCP if it's bombed to ashes? Taiwan is needed by the CCP for it's resourses and industry. If Taiwan is blown to shit they have no use for it. And on top of that the whole world would hate them for fighting a war of aggression and wiping a country off the map.
You cant shell it forever, because after the first shell the response starts. The world wouldn't sit there for a week wondering what that loud noise is.
Like the optimism but "wreck" China? Taiwan? What are you smoking?

The idea is that you wouldn’t be able to win a local war specifically. It would have to be a world war level response. Taiwan wouldn’t last either way
