Exactly. As several videos above have speculated, Xi believes a
post-Trump US will revert to its old position of opposing Taiwan
invasion, therefore believes that the best timing for a Taiwan

danger Taiwan is in.
At this point, the best way to ensure there is no invasion of
Taiwan is for Zhang supporters in the PLA to overthrow Xi ASAP.
Of course Xi is aware of this:

reunification not as optional but as something that will happen
whether Taiwan wants it or not). To say nothing of:

working for Xi. Zhang & Liu underestimated Xi & have paid the

dead long before the end of 3 months.
