Leaked audio allegedly reveals China's plan to invade Taiwan

Leaked audio from a what is claimed to be a top-secret meeting of China's People's Liberation Army (PLA) has exposed its plans to begin mobilisation efforts to prepare for war with Taiwan.
The 57-minute audio clip was allegedly recorded during a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee of Guangdong on May 14.
Media network Lude Media published the audio and reports it's the first recording from a "top secret military meeting" in China to be ever released to the public.
Lude Media claims the audio was leaked from senior members of the Chinese Communist Party military "who risked their own lives to expose the evil plan of Xi Jinping".
The leaked audio uncovers China's military plans for the Taiwan Strait, South China Sea, East China, and First Island Chain.
English translations of the discussions reveal the purpose of the PLA meeting was to instruct mobilisation orders to Guangdong and clarify instructions from "peacetime to wartime transition".
Those attending the meeting were told all Government levels in the province must change their priority from economic development to "ensuring strategic victory".
"We won't hesitate to start a war, crush Taiwan's independence and strong enemies' plots, and resolutely defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity," one speaker is quoted as saying in an English translation.
The translated transcript says Guangdong province has been tasked with activating 140,000 military personnel, 953 ships, and 1,653 units of "unmanned equipment".
Other resources to be requisitioned include 20 airports, six repair and shipbuilding yards, and 14 emergency transfer centres as well as "grain depots, hospitals, blood stations, oil depots, and gas stations", according to the transcript.
President of the Centre for China Analysis and Strategy Jaydeva Ranade has written about the leak and says the timing is interesting.
"It is unclear whether the video was deliberately 'leaked' by the Chinese as part of psywar, or it was an unauthorised recording of the meeting by a disgruntled PLA officer.
"It will nonetheless certainly be carefully analysed by China's neighbours and competitors," he added.
