Can’t say I blame them.
It would also probably be wise for any Chinese in the Ukraine, answering the “come home” call from King Xi, to NOT travel THRU Russia. They could wind up back in the Ukraine...wearing a Russian uniform and carrying an AK. LOL

The biggest elements are probably learning to finance, equip, train and lead an armed force. All of these factors are in play in some fashion in Ukraine, given the nation’s relatively low income per capita and skimpy, poverty-driven defense budget. Over a century ago, many of the men who led the efforts against China’s last titular emperor received their training in Japanese military academies.
Ukraine is risky as a training venue, but learning to fight there is probably way more useful to any would-be rebel than a formal stint at Sandhurst or West Point would be. Many of Ukraine’s war leaders, including the recently-departed leader of the Carpathian Sich, interact very closely with the rank and file, with funds and equipment not forthcoming from governmental sources being acquired through appeals for private contributions.
In other words, not materially different from what George Washington did to organize the American Revolution. It’s not rocket science, but does require a good deal of ingenuity, creativity and sheer gut-it-out tenacity. Easy to parrot for a test at some academy, but not so easy to implement in the field.
Yang Kyoungjong could tell them a thing or two.
