2017 Chinese Coup

The 2017 Chinese Coup Attempt (otherwise known as the 2017 Chinese Coup) was an attempt by corrupt Chinese colonel Dong Bao to assassinate the Chinese president Xing Jin and pin the blame on the Americans. 
==Prelude==
Chinese colonel Dong Bao hated President Xing Jin, believing that he did not have the interests of the Chinese people in mind and that the only way to lead China into a new era of prosperity was to get rid of Xing Jin and take power in China. Henceforth, he plotted a massive conspiracy that involved assassinating President Xing Jin and pinning the blame on the Americans. 
==The Assassination Attempt==
President Xing Jin was visiting sick citizens in Suzhou, China, promoting his ideology of leading China into a revolution of his own. Dong Bao chose this as his moment to strike and sent a four-man team of assassins loyal to him to kill Xing Jin. However, the operation soon backfired when a high-ranking Federation soldier in the Royal Federation Army named Juan Hidalgo, and Task Force Sentinel operatives, which caught wind of the assassination attempt, all tried to thwart it. The ensuing battle turned the hospital into a war zone and left Royal Federation Army soldier Juan Hidalgo dead, Sentinel operatives Sebastian Ingram and Willow Lawson dead, and Sentinel operatives Elizabeth West, Clinton Savage and Ryan Clark wounded, with President Xing Jin himself critically wounded and in critical condition, as well as three of the four assassins dead. The lone survivor fled the scene before local police could arrest him.
==Legacy==
Despite this, Dong Bao was mistakenly led to believe the assassination attempt succeeded and proceeded to broadcast the false news to the Chinese people. Won over by his charismastic charm, the Chinese people rallied behind him and joined his pledge of retribution against the Russians and their allies.
This eventually helped to contribute to the Sino-Russian Border Conflict months later, and the ensuing Sino-Russian War months later.
