No, it will result in a stalemate...
It will depend who attacks first. Lets just say Mainland China threatens Taiwan with nuclear weapons. USA steps in to intervene but comes too late.
Taiwan has already sent their commandos to sabotage mainland china's major powerplants and production facilities. China seeing this launches and all-out-assault on Taiwan, and sends some of its forces to attack.
Meanwhile... USA forces have reached the Chinese Border, they say that if they continue attacking Taiwan they will intervene. Chinese do not listen.
North Korea seeing the USA's forces spread incredibly thin preps for an attack only to be met with formidable resistance by South Korea.
At the Taiwan/Mainland China War. China has dug itself into Taiwan and will have already taken most of it on the first week of fighting. But without a lto of sacrifice... Within a month, Taiwan will have been lost. The USA pacific fleet will move into position to escort refugees from Taiwan into the US.
The Main US pacific fleet based in China is smaller. Insurgence troops in Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan etc will see the USA's weakness and attack them at their weakest, major terrorist attacks not only on foreign soil but also on American Homeland. US soldiers in the middle East are decimated by well prepared ambushes...
South Korea would have found itself on the retreat with North Korea right behind them. Japan afraid of North Korea Artillery coming within range steps in to intervene. Japan's intervention successfully keeps the North Korea threat at bay.
UK wanting to help USA sends a very small low profile task force to the US/China conflict which just begun.
Some US ships are downed by Chinese Submarines, While china's anti-ship defences are being destroyed by US ship's naval cannons...
Taiwan is conquered by China. Many US naval forces are ambushed when going near Taiwan.
Then Russia in all this commotion builds their new Anti-Missile Defence system which draws Europe into the war. EU sends their forcesto take down the wall. EU ask desperately for USA's help, USA can only send a very few taskforces spreading their already spread thing forces even more...
The USA's pacific Fleet engaged in the Chinese fleet will have reduced in number by a lot. Chinese navy is slowly advancing. Taking heavy casualties but eventually destroying the USA pacific fleet, almost having their (the chinese) entire navy wiped out. Having their main objective (taking over Taiwan) completed, China withdraws. The USA/China confrontation is over.
North Korea is pusked back to their boundaries and eventually further. Just a few kilometres to North Korea's parliament Building, the President of North Korea Sends everthing he has (including civilians) to fight the South Korea/Japan alliance. But ultimately that is not enough. North Korea is liberated...
The European front is going terrible, Russian forces are decimating EU forces, and the US Taskforce is destroyed before it even reached the front.
US can now concentrate most of their forces on the Russian front. Terrorist attacks are terrible, USA morale is now very low. When suicide bombers made a suicide attempt at destroying the Statu of liberty (and succeeding). Russia eventually pushes the EU forces back halfway through poland when US forces arrive. The front to far from the water for the atlantic fleet to do any good.
Russia finally seeing the threat USA posed to their anti missile system lauched a sneaky assault on West USA, smuggling their Tanks and infantry through container ships in Seattle (going a bit WiC here but should be true...) Tje sneak attack on Seattle means that almost the entire west coats is taken over by Russia. Having their forces spread abit thin, EU/USA taskforce push Rusia back to their Anti-Missile System.
Russia are slowly making their way East in the USA, but after months of fighting, they are finally kicked out of the USA, The European front is over, the anti missile system is destroyed...
World War III is over...
That was just a simluation of what would happen if China and USA waged war. No country would fight one another directly... Both sides would take Heavy casulties...
