Well, it's not dead end chess. Cambodia, Thailand, Bangladesh, Myanmar, and Sri Lanka are friendly nations. Japan, SK, Taiwan and Australia are American stooges. Vietnam is not aligned to anybody except Russia, if we attack Vietnam, nothing will happen to us. Philipines is a bit tricky, the attack need to be fast, reinforced with carriers. US will not attack a nucleat armed China, and from the signs of it Russia just joined us for a drill in SCS, a signal to America on the unofficial alignment.that is an impressive list, but is not useful as it is designed to be. I won´t say worthless. because without allies and friends you can´t project power, nowhere, even with more aircraft carriers, destroyers and submarines. everywhere you go, you are met with suspicion and resistance. you can´t nothing, except staging exercises here and there and going home afterwards. your ships will rust, corrode with the times at bay. as you are not welcomed, you can play a policy of intimidation, showing your guns, but it is a short sighted policy.
Look at the map. you are contained by the navies of US and their allies as well as friendly countries. from Japan, S Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, Philippines, Singapore, Australia, India. oh yeah you can take a long way and dock at Pakistan ports. the times, when other came to China capital paying tributes are long gone.
India will most likely stick out, we have Pakistan to neutralize them. So basically a fast war capturing Viet and Pinoy islands is feasible. Malaysian seems willing to negotiate and the PM is easily bribed. SG will not get involved in a Chinese US conflict except allowing the US to.use the existing US base there. Its been our policy not to attack Taiwanese forces in SCS, they are our brothers afterall. They will not join the US against us. That leaves US and Japan. OZ will most likely provide 'support' but not direct interference.
