Don't worry. The Chinese have ZERO ability of Force Projection. Although China is the Worlds most populous nation...Millions of Troops mean nothing if you can't get them anywhere other than your own countries shores.
The U.S. Navy is unbelievably Lethal as well as able to prevent any other country from Shipping or Flying their Troops and Weapons for any real distance. Why do you think that CHINA...once obsessed with Reunification with Taiwan...hardly ever even speaks about it anymore?
Golden Rule...never lend money to a Country that you have NO ABILITY to force payment from. Scenario...China attempts to invade Taiwan...U.S. Navy Carrier Groups with following Attack Subs...OBLITERATE CHINESE INVASION FORCE AT SEA. U.S. stops all payments on Chinese Loans...U.S. also stops all cargo shipments to U.S. as well as stops all Oil Tankers heading toward China. China attempts a Limited ICBM Launch of perhaps 50 ICBM's with 3 Mirvs per Missile...New U.S. ABM System...a combination of the Battle Tested SM-3 ABM as well as U.S. use of partially installed Direct Energy Weapons...FEL...Free Electron Laser and MEB....Microwave Emitting Beam.
50 Missiles either shot down or VAPORIZED. You cannot compare the U.S. Military with Chinese Military. China is multiple Decades behind. Split Infinity

Again...How does China hold any Cards if the U.S. is able without firing a single Bullet...Completely Collapse the Economy of China in a week?
We don't pay the money back...what can they do? NOTHING!
We no longer allow imports from China...what happens? More JOBS in the U.S. and again...Chinese Economy goes BELLY UP!
China even depends on the U.S. Navy to provide Open and Safe Sea Lanes. U.S. Stops all OIL SHIPMENTS via Tankers to China....BELLY UP!
We HOLD ALL THE CARDS! Split Infinity
