This is why I'm not overexcited over this and keep saying this may turn into years worth of grind on the border.
If India overruns Pakistan, Chinese military will be declared an absolute eunuch entity.
Now, China could play it smart and wait for India to fully commit to Pakistan and then take the apple of their eye -Taiwan.
But then again, commie brain works different.

Retards.
China doesn't have what it takes to capture Taiwan in a way that would remotely be worth it. If they do take it, it'll be through the mother of all human wave conflicts and the China story will be as good as done after that. It'll be the textbook definition of a Pyrrhic Victory. The Strait they have to cross to invade from the West presents its own challenges, and almost all of Eastern Taiwan is a chain of sheer vertical cliff. Preparing and executing such an amphibious assault takes a very long time and lots of resources (check D-Day in Normandy) and the Chinese have no experience of it either. Plus the Strait itself will be turned into a massive kill-zone by the US. And the amount of preparation required would also tip off Taiwan/US to any invasion well in advance. And if China thinks it can smother Taiwan into submission by cutting shipping - the West can choke China in IOR as well (with varying levels of Indian support/neutrality).
