Just think realistically. China wasn't able to maintain its position in Ladakh for one winter and it is dreaming of challening India in its backyard? 90% of Nepal's trade passes through India. Do you have an alternate?

CPEC units turned bankrupt even before the whole project is completed. The parasitic beggars's use was seen when they refused to mobilize towards Khaplu when the Chinese are stuck in Ladakh and importing Taliban into Xinjiang is the worst thing China can do.
To maintain a position in Himalayas really costs. And when you need to trudge thousands of kilometres of occupied lands to reach Indian border, you will really bleed money. Many empires collapsed trying to garrison Tibet and Tarim. The CCPoohs seem to be the next in line.
From 1962, China was preparing for another war with India. Ignore '69 and '86. It's bee what? 50 years? Were they able to create at least one proper supply depot capable of managing Indian front for a year? They are miserable lizards, not the mighty dragons as the world believes.
