Xi’s Revenge Gone Mad? Shocking ‘Deadly List’ of 15 Revealed—Even Zhang Youxia Targeted!

Recently, overseas Chinese media have been circulating shocking news. The Discipline Inspection Commission of the Chinese Communist Party's military has allegedly arrested Han Ximing, director of Xi Jinping's office. According to reports, his testimony revealed explosive information that after the 20th Party Congress, Xi Jinping secretly drew up an assassination list of 15 The list allegedly included Zhang Zemin, Hu Jintao, Li Keqiang, Wen Jiabao, Song Ping, Zheng Qinghong, Wang Yan, Li Ruihuan, with Zhang Youxia being the only one still in office. If true, this would mean Xi has escalated the party's power struggle to the level of purging through elimination. Is China now standing on the brink of a political upheaval? Is this assassination list nothing more than a rumor or undeniable evidence of a An overseas Chinese observer exclaimed, In a society like the CCP's, the only thing you don't know is what's really happening inside. There's nothing they wouldn't dare to do. So what is the truth? Let's uncover the story in today's program. The Shocking Content of the Assassination List On August 15, the ex-account Wan Junxie published explosive information, which was soon widely picked up by overseas Chinese-language independent media outlets. According to these reports, Han Ximing, director of Xi Jinping's presidential office, allegedly confessed after his arrest that following the 20th Party Congress, Xi Jinping had drawn up an assassination list of 15 individuals. The list reportedly included former leaders Zhang Zemin, Hu Jintao, Wen Jiabao, party elders Song Ping, Zeng Qinghong, Li Ruihuan, reformists Wang Yang, Li Keqiang, along with several other former Politburo Standing Committee members. Still in office, Zhang Youxia, the only incumbent on the list. This revelation also aligns with year-long rumors that the party elders have been deeply dissatisfied with Xi Jinping. Sources further claim that the death of Zhang Zemin on November 30, 2022, was not due to illness but rather a deliberately orchestrated medical accident, while the sudden death of Li Keqiang on October 27, 2023, was staged to appear as a heart attack while swimming. Li Keqiang's death, in particular, sparked widespread outrage and waves of public mourning both inside and outside China, nearly triggering social unrest, forcing Xi to temporarily halt further assassination plans. As is well known, since coming to power, Xi Jinping has wielded the banner of anti-corruption as a means to eliminate rivals, in reality consolidating personal power. At the 20th Party Congress, he broke with the norms of term limits and collective leadership, establishing absolute authority. Analysts note Zhang Zemin and Hu Jintao symbolize former leadership, Zeng Qinghong and Song Ping represent the core of the party elders. Li Keqiang, Wen Jiabao, and Wang Yang stand for the reformist camp. To Xi, all of them were potential threats. Thus, he allegedly marked them for elimination, disguising deaths as accidents or illnesses, an act likened to Stalin's Great Purge or Mao Zedong's political purges. This claim is not without basis given the string of suspicions surrounding the deaths of Li Keqiang Zhang Zemin passed away at the height of the white paper movement. The government insisted his illness was beyond saving, but some sources argue his death was orchestrated to divert public attention. That said, Zhang's health had been deteriorating for years, making his passing a matter of time. Li Keqiang, by contrast, was viewed as a moderate reformist. He openly acknowledged that 600 million people in China live on less than 1,000 RMB per month, a remark widely seen as a veiled criticism of Xi's so-called achievements. His sudden death, despite being in good health, combined with the hasty cremation, has fueled enormous suspicion inside and outside China. Perhaps most striking is the inclusion of Zhang Youxia, the current vice chairman of the Central If confirmed, this would complicate relations between the military and the party's central leadership, signaling a deeply unstable political landscape. According to multiple sources, Han Ximing was one of Xi Jinping's closest confidants. As director of Xi's presidential office, Han controlled access to highly sensitive secrets, classified documents, confidential schedules, and communications both domestic and international. His arrest is seen as a direct strike at the very core of Xi's power. The outlet Sound of Hope further noted that Han's detention marks a major breakthrough in uncovering the truth behind the death of Li Keqiang. Given Han's role as Xi's most trusted aide, his becoming the subject of investigation by the military commission suggests that Li's death was no mere medical incident, but rather a matter reaching into the highest levels of CCP power. Indeed, Han Ximing has now been missing for 10 days. Beyond the so-called assassination list, Han's testimony is believed to contain revelations of additional political plots, corruption, and secrets tied to Xi's rule. Many interpret this as a signal of internal pushback from within the military itself. It is critical to note that this investigation is not being led by the police, nor by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, but by the Discipline Inspection Commission of the Central Military Commission. This indicates that the case is being treated as a political-military event tied to national security, not a routine political scandal. The military has bypassed the parties and governments' traditional disciplinary and supervisory organs to target key figures, something virtually unseen in decades. Empowering the military commission underscores that the leadership no longer trusts the traditional oversight system, instead relying on the military as the final arbiter. There is another detail I'd like to draw your attention to. According to commentator Su Xiaohei, it was Han Ximing who, during the 20th Party Congress, escorted Hu Jintao out of the assembly hall. At the time, Han was serving as director of the presidential office, commonly referred to as Xi's office, as well as deputy director of the general office of the CCP Central Committee. Seen in light of that incident, his arrest today comes as no surprise. In the CCP's internal power struggles, every act of purge carries a heavy price when the opposing faction one day rises to power. The Beidaihe Conclave and Internal Challenges These rumors emerged immediately after the conclusion of the Beidaihe Conclave. Reports suggest that the military even entered the meeting grounds, with whispers of tense confrontations. Zhang Youxia was said to have played a pivotal role, becoming a major variable in the redistribution of power. If the controversy surrounding Li Keqiang's death and the List of Fifteen continues to spread, it indicates that the Beidaihe Conclave was not merely about policy disputes, but about political purges and a restructuring of power. Several scenarios could unfold. If the assassination list is confirmed, the military could become the driving force in investigations and political restructuring, paving the way for a model of the military commission managing the party. If Zhang Youxia's involvement is verified, the political situation could collapse into complete instability, potentially leading to a major shake-up in the top leadership. If the list is merely a deterrent, it may serve as a political weapon to curb interference from party elders while consolidating the military's and the regime's control. Japanese media have reported that the fourth plenum of the CCP's Central Committee, originally scheduled for August, was postponed to October because Xi's grip on power is weakening. Within the military, anti-Xi factions are said to be accelerating efforts to form a counter-Xi encirclement. During the Beidaihe Conclave, the PLA Daily published a cryptic article titled, A Warning Bell Across Time. The piece recalled the Yan'an era, when the CCP showed no leniency toward corruption among high-ranking officials, stressing that the law must punish even great ministers. The article was interpreted as an indirect yet firm warning to Xi Jinping. Japanese military analyst Tanaka Saburo further noted that while China's economy continues to deteriorate, Xi remains determined to pursue reunification with Taiwan through force, a stance that has fueled discontent within the military. Signs of passive resistance have already surfaced, including a reported incident where two Chinese vessels collided with each other in disputed waters near the Philippines. Xi even told the Politburo bluntly, we must fight one battle, victory will solve all problems. This has been interpreted as a mark of desperate brinkmanship. Xi's family scandals continue to surface. Meanwhile, overseas media have been abuzz with reports about the Yan Lanlan incident, a 23-year-old woman involved in a car accident in Sydney now facing trial who is alleged to be Xi Jinping's illegitimate daughter. Her real name is said to be Xi Minglin, and her mother is reportedly the Zhejiang opera actress Jian Yao. Public scrutiny has since unearthed further revelations. First, Xi's younger brother and his second sister, along with their families, have long settled in Australia. In the 1990s, Xi's younger brother, Xi Yuanping, left his position as deputy director of the Shenzhen Foreign Trade Commission to enter business, later joining China National Petroleum. By serving as a director of a Hong Kong subsidiary before the 1997 handover, he secured Hong Kong residency. Shortly thereafter, Xi Yuanping, his second sister, Qi Annan, and brother-in-law Wu Long obtained Australian green cards. Today, Xi's sister's family resides in Melbourne. Xi Yuanping's son, Qi Mingzhen, holds a U.S. green card. Additionally, Xi's maternal uncle, Qi Ruiqin, Qi Ruixin, former party secretary of China National Gold Group and commander of the Armed Police Gold Corps, also emigrated to Australia with his family. Second, Qi Ruixin's son, Qi Ming, Ming Chai, was investigated by Australian police for suspected money laundering. According to internal documents from Crown Melbourne Casino revealed by police, Qi Ming was classified as a VVIP client. Records show that between June 2012 and late 2013, in just 18 months, he spent around $41 million odd at the casino, ranking among the top 50 highest spending customers. This extravagant, almost reckless lifestyle epitomizes the Xi family's discreet yet lavish existence in Australia, rivaling the ostentation of Zheng Wei, son of Zheng Qinghong. Third, the Xi family's enormous overseas assets, with networks stretching across North America, Australia, and Europe, stand in stark contrast to the anti-corruption and frugality image Xi himself projects. Meanwhile, ordinary Chinese citizens are suffering. On top of aggressive collection of social security contributions, the government has now introduced a new property tax. This so-called property tax may only be the beginning. As China's economy collapses and the government faces a severe fiscal crisis, Beijing is desperate for revenue. Raising taxes has become a key tactic, with the core aim of filling gaping holes in local government land finances. With the real estate market in free fall and land sale revenues plummeting, authorities have turned to taxing homeowners. The property tax is seen as a trial balloon, laying the groundwork for a nationwide real estate tax. On August 2, China's Ministry of Housing officially announced new regulations requiring residents to pay an annual home inspection fee, an insurance fee, and a housing pension fund. These policies, piloted in Shanghai, have sparked widespread public outrage. Coupled with the new social security mandates effective September 1 and new rental regulations beginning September 15, these three unprecedented measures are seen as economic weapons of mass destruction. China's economy is now little more than a hollow shell. The CCP is squeezing its citizens dry, from compulsory social security to rental taxes, to sustain the state apparatus, fund retired officials, and bankroll the hidden-strap extravagant lifestyles of figures like Yan Lonlon. In conclusion, from the shocking assassination list, to rumors of the military commission arresting Han Ximing, from the suspicious death of Li Keqiang, to the Yan Lonlon scandal, from the postponement of the Fourth Plenum, to the turbulence at the Beidaihe Conclave, all point to the Chinese Communist Party standing on the eve of a political storm. Xi Jinping's grip on power is facing unprecedented challenges. Discontent within the military among party elders, reformist factions, and civil society is intertwining, leaving China's political landscape fraught with uncertainty. Some say the politics of Zhang Manhai resemble a stagnant pond. Outsiders only see the still surface. Yet when the forces beneath begin to collide, it is precisely that surface calm which becomes most dangerous. If these revelations are true, Xi is not only a political autocrat, but could also be judged by history as a criminal against the nation. The list of 15 is not merely the outcome of an investigation. It represents a purge in the power struggle, one that could shape China's political trajectory for years to come. What do you think? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
