It doesn’t matter how inefficient or poOrly trained a Conscription army is if it has 100 million soldiers.
and conscription in China won’t have the same negative connotations as it does in the west.
you need those 100 million soldiers to be armed
russia in ww1 showed how useless a massive army is when much of it has little to no ammunition
also you need to keep 100 million soldiers fed, which means you need a massive ag surplus and a secure supply line to do this. China already has a food deficit, and the supply line will not be secure as long as the USN is in the pacific
