.
Xi Jinping spent 14 years building a military loyal to him. Now his top generals are falling, his trusted military aides are gone, and the PLA's own newspaper is repeatedly warning against one-man rule.
Even after Zhang Youxia's downfall, calls for collective leadership continued. And China's Fifth Plenum omitted two key doctrines associated with Xi's military authority.
Are these signs of growing tensions between Xi Jinping and the PLA? And what could they mean for his political future?
