The first sign of invasion comes with a group of attack helicopters flying low over the northern Taiwan coast.
Following close behind, a bigger group of dark green assault helicopters loaded with troops.
Then from behind low sand-dunes, two dozen amphibious assault vehicles move with surprising speed along the wide beach, their tracks churning up the sand. Soon they are disgorging scores of soldiers.
For a few minutes it seems Taiwan’s defenders have been caught with their pants down.
But then a siren wails, heavily armed soldiers are running along trenches, the rat-tat-tat of heavy machine gun fire. Out of nearby woods come battle tanks and armoured vehicles, their guns booming.
Apache attack helicopters roar in over the hills, strafing the invading troops. The beach erupts with loud explosions. The invaders are pinned down, then driven back. The invasion is vanquished. Taiwan is safe.
