Guerrilla warfare requires extensive force multipliers. The smaller number of guerrillas has to be able to effectively wound a larger occupier in order to make insurgency effective; China has very few of those force multipliers. Look at the effectiveness of medieval peasant risings, then look at them again as if the lords and soldiers had machine-guns.

@ Dires: Your nation is the "Qing" to the Tsar because the RoC has barely been around. Colloquially, the Qing are still thought of as the rulers, regardless of how foreign policy makers are aware of the Republic.


So you're going to commit genocide? Even if you do, the fighting won't stop everrrr :P. Also there was a violent revolution, how the hell would anybody think the Qing are still thought to the rulers? I'm pretty sure most people, no matter how far the distance would be aware of the collapse of a thousand years of monarchy, especially a Tsar. And the Qing aren't even Chinese.

Who said anything about genocide? I sincerely doubt much of the populace will care about losing their government of five years, especially if I use puppet local officials. The only ones who will need to die are the New Army and silly republicans, and all will be well.

You're assuming your average Russian peasant-soldier has even heard of the Qing before he started fighting them. False assumption.

Didn't know it was from the perspective of the Russian peasant, but if so, he wouldn't know of Qing either lol. You're ignoring history, the only people the Chinese hated more than the Qing were Western Imperialists, they don't care about the type of government, the fact that it is Western in origin is the most galling. In fact, that's the WHOLE REASON behind the Boxer Rebellion. They were even lynching Chinese collaborators. Chinese forums to this day still reference the Opium Wars, they don't forget easily with such a long history.
