Question about China's fleet

Could China take on Vietnam? They tried before withou much success. If they tried to take the Phillipines they`d have trouble from some enemies with a navy that could level China to the ground. They have a large military but they might not know how to use it properly. Take the Korean war for example. The Chinese attack and pushes the UN forces back all the way out of N.Korea. Then they loose the initative and gets pushed back until there`s a stillstand around the current border. I think a modern war will be much the same. They`re overwhelming force will only serve them at the start. Then their shear numbers will become a liability. What if the US carpet bombs the areas where their forces are at? How much will remain as you can`t simply hide millions upon millions of soldiers in one day.
