And that is the best strategy IMHO because it brings the best result. Reunification without violence. If the CCCP was smart, they should make some concessions that would allow Taiwan to want to reunite with China. It is like United States in the 19th century. Several new territories wanted to be part of USA so they petitioned for statehood.

The simple answer is thousands of men, as OoE pointed out without mass such attack is not sustainable once a RoC heavy units move in. Plus it only takes a few ideologists in the invaders ranks to tip off the defenders. Taipai isn't ruled by Stalin so military age men with demonstratable skills and knowledge showing up and saying the Chinese are coming in the days before hand is a huge risk. The RoCA would only have to roll up one safe house to know that truth.

I am not going for sustainable. All I just need is 72 hours of paralysis because in that timeframe, I would be launching a full scale assault on the beaches and I don't want the reserves be called up and kill us at the beach. Like OOE said, the fight is at the beach and it is a do or die situation given the current leadership of Taiwan.
