I can't imagine there be much of one. You will need some serious foreign support to arm a new army. You also need some real military talents too, you know people like Lin Biao and stuff, those don't grow on trees either.
It may be an unique opportunity for local armed forces like the Wa State to gain some new territory during the chaos though.
See Boris is now claiming victory in the middle of local elections day. Hmmmm
It is already formed.
That would certainly happen during the initial period of sanction, there are contractual obligations, the steel maker need the coal immediately for their furnace and has no way to find new suppliers, etc.I heard that when China block Australian coal, their coal were imported into China via a third country making the price even more expensive for China.I don't know!
Sanction is always a double-blade sword, the real purpose is for the long run. China has signed a long term agreement with Mongolia to replace the Australian coal last year.
In the long run, China's sanction against Australia is not about hurting Australia more, it is disengaging an unreliable supplier. Of course, if Australia's market outside of China is not able to replace China's consumption, Australia will suffer. If production outside of Australia can not satisfy China's need, China will suffer. The true outcome will take a long time to know, and both countries have some time to remedy the impact, we shall wait and see.
This sxxt show of "G7" and guess (cough Covid. Cough) comes to an without agreement on China. But the western MSM still spin it as if they've achieved to send China a message. With words like "refrain". Lol

Instead ministers bridged their gaps on how to confront China’s rise by vowing only to improve their countries’ resilience to China’s “arbitrary, coercive economic policies and practices”.

The British are even sending type 45 to deal with those fishing boats.
In the parallel world:
"Denied their traditional access, French Maritime Militia of 60 boats strong supported by the French navy faced down their historic and traditional enemy.
China is considering sending its fleet to enforce freedom of navigation in support for the French, and has volunteered itself as the unbiased arbitrator. China has already tabled its investigation and judgement in yesterday's UN session. Anonymous source with access to the document has commented that China has succeeded in completing an impartial and comprehensive investigation in a record time of 5 minutes."
