Xi Jinping vs His Generals: The PLA Power Struggle No One Admits •

China projects an image of iron discipline and absolute control over its military. But recent developments inside the Central Military Commission (CMC) point to a far more complex and fragile reality. The investigation surrounding Zhang Youxia, one of Xi Jinping’s most powerful uniformed figures, is not just another anti-corruption move. It signals a deeper stress within the PLA’s command structure—where loyalty, factional balance, and operational credibility intersect uncomfortably. In this episode of #ThreeGoodGenerals, Lt Gen Ravi Shankar (R), Maj Gen Rajiv Narayanan (R), and Lt Gen Dushyant Singh (R) analyse: Why the PLA has become the central arena of Xi Jinping’s power consolidation What Zhang Youxia represents within China’s military hierarchy How repeated purges reshape command trust, morale, and war-fighting readiness Whether this is a corruption narrative—or a loyalty and control dilemma What internal PLA turbulence means for Taiwan, the Indo-Pacific, and India’s strategic calculus This is not speculation. It is a structural examination of power, obedience, and fear inside a modern authoritarian military. #ThreeGoodGenerals #XiJinping #ZhangYouxia #PLA #ChinaMilitary #CMC #MilitaryPurge #PowerStruggle #AuthoritarianSystems #ChinesePolitics #IndoPacific #TaiwanStrait #IndiaChina #StrategicAffairs
