Xi Jinping’s ongoing anti-corruption campaign and drive for absolute loyalty within the Chinese Communist Party have produced repeated high-level removals from the People’s Liberation Army high command. In 2025 and early 2026, investigations removed Central Military Commission vice chairmen He Weidong and Zhang Youxia, along with Political Work Department head Miao Hua, Joint Staff Department chief Liu Zhenli, and numerous theater and service commanders on charges of discipline violations. These actions have left the CMC with only Xi and anti-graft official Zhang Shengmin in senior uniformed roles, prompting accelerated efforts to rebuild a command structure vetted for personal allegiance ahead of the 2027 modernization deadline. Civilian officials such as Ma Xingrui have also faced probes, while scheduled gatherings including the Two Sessions and future plenums could surface additional cases. Trader attention centers on whether the pattern extends beyond the military or stabilizes following the latest round of leadership turnover.
