The results of the Fifth Plenum of the Central Committee: For the first time in 32 years, a new member was elected to the Politburo from outside the Party Congress - Zhang Shenming (Xi's compatriot, nuclear missile forces) was appointed as Xi Jinping's deputy in the Central Military Committee. In 1994, General Secretary Jiang Zemin's husband from Shanghai, Huang Zhu, was also elected to the Politburo during the settlement period after the events of the Tiananmen protests. Interestingly, Huang Zhu also had an unusual death - he did not live to see his term end in 2007, despite being a member of the Politburo for 13 years. In the past, Politburo by-elections within the current Congress were held only during the reigns of Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping. Zhang Shenming, former head of the Military Command Control Commission, became the most influential military man in the Chinese power system after the official resignations of Zhang Yu-hsia and Weidong. Thus ended the long phase of the struggle between Zhang Yu-Xia's land group and He Weidong's - Miao Hua's sea group. The nuclear forces and the military's surveillance system won. For a potential conflict in Taiwan, this means refusing not to carry it out (Chang Yu-hsia) and refusing to force it (He Weidong); The decision will be made exclusively in the format of maintaining China's nuclear security against the background of a possible nuclear program in Japan and the possible deployment of nuclear weapons on Taiwan itself.
