Just like with Putin's generals, Xi's generals may tell him what he wants to hear. If the wants to hear they will be ready to invade Taiwan in 2027, and they say it's not possible, then they'll be replaced with some who say it's possible. If 2027 comes and the invasion is about as successful as Russia's invasion, then they may or may not be replaced. Replaced for sure today versus replaced maybe in 4 years, which one to choose?
