No way they could hide the invasion force necessary to do this from our satellites. Taiwan will have a heads up from us and smoke them. China would have to carpet bomb the entire island and kill everyone before even landing a boat on the shore to have a shot of invading successfully. Amphibious invasions are exponentially more difficult than land ones. I give you Japan. Never conquered in over 2,000 years until Uncle Sam came along with enough serious firepower relative to Japan to accomplish parking the USS Battleship Missouri in Tokyo Bay.
The Japanese culture developed their unique society precisely because they were not successfully invaded over thousands of years. They did kill each other but that’s another story. The US did beat them and look at them now compared to before 1945.

Carpet bombing defeats the entire purpose of the invasion. Russia is not after Ukraine’s infrastructure. China very much is after Taiwan’s though and don’t want to sabotage really any of it. You might see some targeted strikes, but there sure as shite will be no carpet bombing in Taiwan should China invade.
There’s only one strategy to take Taiwan, and it’s brutal as all frick: Zapp Brannigan’s Killbot Strategy being used almost literally:
