china invades australia, begins taking over east and west coastal swaths
australian forces unable to respond, too busy keeping people in their homes
“china invades australia”
And the people hardly notice a difference.
Kind of a brilliant move.
Everyone is looking at HK, and the Chinese invade Australia. Nobody’s got a gun.
It would be over very quickly.
However, if the US wasn’t already directly working with China, our subs could make logistics a real issue for them. So could our frigates and destroyers.
China bypasses Australia to let it self-destruct. You make it too complicated.
