Uhhhhhhh... No?
Right now china may have a large force of soldiers an infantry, BUT they have little to no navy (someone already said), and also they only have liquid fuel nukes.
If you didn't already know the US's nukes are a dry fuel, the kind used in there spaceshuttles, and for the americans to launch a missile it takes about 2 minutes to launch it, so not much time to think about it when they've given the order.

And for china it takes close to 20 minutes after the orders given, so the emporor or whoever it is in charge of that has a good while to think of the pros and cons of the launching, so theres a chance they'll back down.

Actually, now that china has come out of the 'dark ages', they have been revamping their navy and military. That'll be a problem.

Next, allow me to spread some tactical wisdom I have learned. If you have more men than I can shoot, blow up, and nuke, YOUR GOING TO WIN. Example; The russians. Horrid army, horrid navy, barely a semblance of an airforce, and yet they won two world wars all thanks to superior numbers.

So the chinese would still be quite the opponent for the US to deal with, especially with the USA's lack of enlisted men.

that may be true but I would like to apply a hypothetical (an nerdy) situation to this.

say you have a shotgun, it never runs out of ammo and it has no kickback so you can pretty mush constantly shoot bullets. lets also say that a hundred thousand zombies are charging you, and everyone knows the best gun for zombie slaying is a shotgun, but eventually there going to overpower you and eat your brains, cause theres a hundred thousand of them and one of you.

now lets say there is still one hundred thousand of them, but there is now 25,000 of you, there is a good chance you will win because you have a better equipped army, and shotguns kill zombies.

but give these zombies guns and a little military training to, they may be clumsy and everything, but its 4 zombies to each of you and so you will porbably lose.

so there is in fact strength in numbers, and if you din't follow that, I apologize cause I am in fact a crazy bastard.

Perciously my point in case.
