It’s amazing that a troll thread can get to 20 pages. PDF at its very best

A few hundred J20 and a few dozen H20 stealth bomber by year 2025.
No one expecting it to be WS-15 ready by 2025, but compromised? J20A version still has undoubtly advantage over enemy aircrafts,both number,quailty wise.J-20 will be unlikely to get WS-15 engine till 2025. Till then it remains compromised due to it's previous generation engine.

Being slow does not equate to being easy to shoot down - how many American cruise missiles could be shot down over the course of years in any theater of operations?American cruise missiles are slow and easy to shoot down.
How many Launchers are there in Chinese inventory?I challenge the Americans to shoot down the 2000+ ballistic missiles heading toward Japan, Korea and Guam on the first day of the war
Sometime between October 10 and October 22, the US will announce an adjustment in the One China Policy and upgrade its diplomatic relations with Taiwan to ambassador level. Within 24 hours, PLAAF will penetrate Taiwan airspace and commence an air war over Taiwan. ...
Japan is largely irrelevant in Sino-Taiwan conflict.Whether it is in a few days or not is perhaps said in jest, but the thread is nevertheless very interesting and a fun read. I personally think that if the US pushes on Taiwan, China will not show restraint. And if Japanese territory is used in the fight, it gives the perfect chance to China to even the score by decimating Japanese cities.

Decimating Japanese cities? You make it sound like as if Japan will just let that happen and China can get away with anything.
I sense OVERREACTION in you....I guess you think otherwise, but being able to disagree in a civilized manner, politely is something that would benefit the forum. You seem to have a few lessons missing in that quarter.
It's starting now...So only 4 days left until WW III?

American cruise missiles have a small RCS by virtue of stealthy applications, made to fly really close to the surface with sophisticated onboard ECM capabilities, and programmed to exploit coverage gaps on the surface to the extent possible. Flight speed levels are also good enough to reach designated targets in a short span of time - its not like they take forever to reach a target. Terminal attack speed levels typically fall in the supersonic and/or hypersonic regimes. All of these characteristics in combination allow cruise missiles to slip through defensive arrangements on land and score kills. These types never disappointed.
Poor judgement on your part.
How many Launchers are there in Chinese inventory?
Well-researched figures below:
For Japan and South Korea, SRBMs will do.
250 Launchers in total
For Guam, IRBMs will be needed.
80 Launchers in total
If YOU wish to strike at these regions, high-value targets must he considered (YOU will be wasting costly munitions otherwise); these are usually heavily defended spaces/assets and there is good probability of incoming ballistic missiles being shot down in the process (missile defenses in place). The ones which might get through might not be sufficient to cripple a number of high-value targets across the board.
Now China will end up fighting on multiple fronts and will have to split its resources accordingly. The WAR has just begun...
At this rate, YOU risk depleting your ballistic missile inventory in a span of few days, and a WAR can last months and even years.
Now consider military might and options at the disposal of South Korea, Japan, and USA respectively - very lengthy discussion in itself.
Sorry my friend but WAR is not merely numbers game and neither ballistic missiles will grant you VICTORY in one. People should do the math before presenting arguments.
Objectives should be REALISTIC and ATTAINABLE - always.
WS-15 will be incorporated into the J-20 very soon, most likely in the next year or 2022. It will have to be tested on the J-20 before receiving design certification, which the head of the Chinese Gas Turbine Institute said would occur between 2021 to 2023. As for the J-20 being retrofitted with the WS-15, most likely this is not possible considering the intake changes that must occur as the WS-15 is a low bypass ratio engine (~0.3) while the WS-10 BPR is relatively high at 0.6.J-20 will be unlikely to get WS-15 engine till 2025. Till then it remains compromised due to it's previous generation engine.
We have no idea whether WS-10 equipped J-20s can be retrofitted with WS-15.
Don't expect H-20 to go into IOC till 2025 at least and then no more than 12 will be available.
How many of those bombers can be made airborne for a particular operation in one go? It cannot be all of them.150 H-6K, H-6N, and H-6J can carry 900 Tomahawk-sized ALCMs.
150 * 6 = 900
These 900 Tomahawk-sized ALCMs can be used to hit Guam or carrier strike group (CSG).
The Chinese H-6 bomber fleet can rearm/refuel and do this AGAIN and AGAIN.
How do I know China has a Tomahawk-sized ALCM?
Because they paraded it last year. The KD-63 on the right of this picture has a known length of 7.0 meters. That makes the brand new ALCM on the left LARGER than the Tomahawk (5.56 m length).
We also know the Flanker centerline pylon can carry a large Tomahawk-sized ALCM. We know because India already does it.
China has HUNDREDS of Flankers that can do this too.
