Logic of "Taiwan Invasion" by China - Would it be a Military Unification? [TV Tokyo World Politics]

Concerns are mounting among various countries about a potential military invasion of Taiwan by China. If the People's Liberation Army of China were to invade Taiwan, how would they justify it? What lies beyond China's traditional claim that "Taiwan is part of China"?
Shinsaku Toyoshima of TV Tokyo deciphers and explains Liu Mingfu's new book, "China's Dream of Military Power", who is a senior colonel in the People's Liberation Army. He is regarded as the "creator" of the slogan "Chinese Dream", often mentioned by President Xi Jinping.
What Colonel Liu reveals is an extremely realistic Chinese perspective on "peace" that is vastly different from Japan's "pacifism", suggesting a future where the likelihood of military unification outweighs peaceful unification. In the video, besides Colonel Liu's book, various other Chinese-related literature is examined and expounded upon, delving into China's "unknown grand strategy" historically.
