I completely agree with RN7 that Canton is most likely the result of Taiwan re-invading the mainland after the war - especially when you look at the territory they occupy
Especially considering the fact that Taiwan's military would basically only be opposed by remnant Chinese units that most likely would have very few tanks or armored vehicles (I dont see many not being committed against the Soviets in Sinkiang, Manchuria and northern China during their war and thus a very big lack of them in the south of the country after the Soviet nuclear attack takes out the Chinese and ends that war in 1997)
I dont see the Soviets nuking Taiwan even if they were providing aid to China - the Taiwanese just arent a threat to them big enough to bother with - and frankly even the threat of being nuked would have been enough for Taiwan to stay out of the Soviet Chinese war - i.e. why risk annihilation for a country that up until the war was threatening to invade you
