Again, it depends on a lot of things.

Infiltrators could decide in significant numbers that they prefer the political climate and freedoms on Taiwan.

And Taiwanese could decide to surrender and not bother fighting. It seems very difficult for them to bother to really read the manuals; do the maintenance and do the training minimally required for the modern arms we DO give them.

Of course, many insist with good reason that the PLA is worse on such issues.

A lot of Taiwanese would fight vigorously. I don't know in what percentages. Most just want to be left alone like every other person in the world.

It's not a matter of "bothering" to fight. It's a matter of military vulnerability. You have a group of people in a small area facing overwhelming numbers who can be wiped out very easily with the aid of mocern technology.
