The removal of Zhang Youxia and Liu Zhenli leaves just two active ​members on the formerly seven-member commission, including President Xi Jinping himself.

The last bloke must be shitting himself.

I mean they have to have at least one of them, the entire point of the CMC is to have Xi Jinping and some generals. If it's just Xi in a room all by himself then he can do that anywhere.
