"... to counter a rising China, which the new defense strategy identifies as undermining an international world order in place for decades."
I would agree that this world order is American hegemony and the petro dollar. It seems on many fronts that it will be replaced as the global currency, and as American interests are so tied up with the dollar it would lead to potential war, based on actions taken in the past.
To add to that, it's been a long time coming.
