tbh, if the PRC needed international brigades so much would have had to go catastrophically wrong that i assume i would be already dead in a nuclear fireball

I don’t get this Russia allows internationals to join their army since 2010 like how bad would the situation need to get

russia and the PRC aren't all that comparable, one is a capitalist state run by neoliberals, the other is a socialist state run by communists
the PLA is very large and as the PRC hasn't been involved in large-scale conflict for years has not been using up a bunch of personnel, ammunition, and equipment
if the PLA needed to bolster it's numbers with foreigners then it would be in direct hot conflict with the us, which is a rabid dog of a country that is one of very few nuclear armed states that has a first strike policy
