Well considering they never aligned together when they were both communist, what would make you think they would align together now?
Russia see's China as it's largest potential adversary.
Historically the Soviet Union had more soldiers on the Chinese border than the NATO border.
.
As to China having so many soldiers,
As long as we don't invade China, what good are all those soldiers?
Neither China nor Russia have the logistics ability to move or support those soldiers.
In the 1990's China contributed a Battalion of Soldiers as peace keepers in Africa, after just 3 months China had to reduce its commitment to just a company, because they could not support the Battalion logistically so far from China.
There will be no direct military confrontation's between Russia, China and the US.
To much is at stake with all three powers having ICBMs.
It will continue to be proxy wars as in the past, but actually Russian, Chinese and American interest are generally inline with each other on most issues today.

The problem is that the US along with bed partners Japan and South Korea account for over 30% of Chinese exports and imports.
Going to a war footing with the US would seriously harm China's ability to function economically during and after the war...
...and Russia puls 15% of its imports from these same three countries.
China and Russia would have to be in dire straits before they would even attempt to run against the US militarily.

No, one wins, we can destroy the world 47 times and Russia can destroy the world 115 times. Not much left of the world for China to benefit from. War with either or both would be the end of civilization as we know it. .

Russia and China don't get along very well. They have a business relationship.
Because of what China did, Russia learned not to trust China a long time ago.

the russians cant afford to fight a war with us right now neither can china
if nukes arnt in play we will win becuase the chinese and russians barely have a navy let alone afford to run it they have no way to cross the pacific without being blown outve the water
if nukes were allowed we would prabably win because we can shoot down icbms now russian cant
we have far better aircraft the f-22 is far supirior to any aircraft anywhere on earth
the b-2 can drop bombs without them even knowing they were ever even there
the united states would win overall people still look at russian like a superpower
witch it no longer is it can barely afford to keep it self running at all, let alone the richest country on earth
and to anyone who says china has the worlds largest army, they arnt trained for **** they have second hand equipment 40 years behind ours they cant fight on the ground with bombers carpet bombing them killing them thousands at a time
they would not have air supiriority therefore there ground forces are useless
they have no navy so they couldnt stop an invasion or invade on there own
the f-22 is so supiorior to anything on earth its not even funny even our f-15s cant keep up with it
i was watching on history channel where they sent one f-22 up against a full squadron of f-15s and the f-22 killed them all before they even saw it the f-15 pilots now have a lot of respect for the f-22

China has the worlds largest army, and Russia has the most tanks. In a all out war with no nukes they both might defeat the US. We can't beat Iraq and Afghanistan without fighting amongst ourselves. America's new motto should be "A nation divided."

If the Chinese military is so great why is Taiwan still free? Why can't China move that force over 100 miles of water and take Taiwan by force?
Okay, listen up, the Chinese military is primitive. The Chinese have absolutely no ability to support any size force outside their own country. That's the truth.

I truly wonder why so many people pose everything in terms of conflict. That is, of course, the way Republicans view things. But it is unproductive and immature, in my opinion. A better way to think about it might be whether the US could form an equal partnership with Russia and China, so we could all coexist peacefully. But of course, that thought never entered a conservative's head.

If China and Russia joined forces against us , it would be an end of the world as we know it.
It would be a race to see who fired the first nuclear weapon because there would be no other hope of survival.
