At the end of February 11979, went to Vietnam to carry out self-defense counterattack operations, and officially launched the battle to attack Lang Son . If our army continues to advance after captures Lang Son, then take over the capital of Vietnam, , Hanoi, , basically taking advantage of the situation.
Vietnam is very desperate. Is it really going to be over this time? I almost shouted: Who can come to "save" us!
Wait until March 5, Vietnam did not expect that it would turn around: China Xinhua News Agency issued a statement announcing that the effect of self-defense counterattack against Vietnam has been achieved, and China is going to withdraw its troops.
Before the Soviet army called "sending troops to support", did we first welcome China's "active withdrawal"?
PLA troops return to the North Korean
There is someone behind us! !
During the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, Vietnam and the Soviet Union wore pairs of pants, and one of their goals was to deal with China.
but If the Soviet Union directly sent troops to attack, the war would be easy to escalate. Don’t forget that there is another United States next to it.
In this case, is acted as its agent by Vietnam, and commits force invasion of China. is really an excellent way. For Vietnam, which pursues pragmatism , China and the United States began to contact each other, dancing on their fragile hearts: China has seen it with his own eyes how miserable Vietnam was during the Vietnam War , and even so, he still chose to communicate with the United States.

plus Sino-Soviet relations had deteriorated at that time. Compared with China, which was still in its growth period, it seemed easier to gain benefits on the side of the Soviet big brother.
"We implement the strategic offensive ideas throughout the year. On the basis of establishing strict defenses, we require that the whole country, including land, air and sea should take the initiative in peacetime!"
Accompanied by the Li Duan Group's shouts, more than 1.2 million overseas Chinese were expelled, and bloodshed continued to occur, and the Chinese people on the Sino-Vietnam border were indecent.
Overseas Chinese persecuted by the Vietnamese authorities
In order to transform the so-called strategic defense into a strategic offensive, Vietnam began to expand its army. In just 13 years, , Vietnam expanded 25 army divisions to 28, upgraded 2 air forces to 4, and gradually expanded the navy to more than 40,000 people.
Everything is there, only the east wind (the attitude of the Soviet Union)!
Soon, after reaching an agreement with the Soviet Union, Vietnam began to act. The Vietnamese army sent a team to invade China, burying a large number of landmines and bamboo stakes, forcibly changing the status quo of the border.
The Vietnamese army expanded in the 1970s and 1980s
In order to drag China into the quagmire of war, Vietnam frequently fired fire and provoked my country's border guards and the masses. In February 1979 alone, more than 300 Chinese died. Not only that, is at sea, Vietnam has not given up creating bloodshed.
Our country has been holding back a fire when it comes to Vietnam's increasingly excessive behavior. As long as we think of the great territory being occupied by these " hyena ", and then think of so many casualties, it is really disgusting. Finally, when could not bear it anymore, he received instructions from the central government and the People's Liberation Army was dispatched.
The Vietnamese authorities who received the relevant information were not panicked at all. They looked like "Don't be afraid, there is someone behind us" , and they carried out pre-war mobilization with confidence: If the war begins, the Soviet army will send troops to support it in just half an hour!
People's Liberation Army
on the Vietnam battlefield, big brother! Where are you?
1 On February 17, 1979, the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam officially started. Vietnam has the support of the Soviet Union, so it was a generous response in the early stage.
But not long after, Vietnam started to curse, and really couldn't beat it! ! !
What should I do if the opponent is too strong? Find the Soviet big brother!
What a pity, my brother didn't even move his butt.
PLA is so powerful that Vietnam cannot beat
Looking at the pitiful Vietnam, the Soviet Union thought that it would still use Vietnam, so it shook its wolf tail, promised a bunch of supplies in Vietnam, and said that would deploy troops on the Sino-Soviet and China-Mongolia border, scaring China to death.
This is different from the signal the Soviet Union sent to Vietnam at the beginning. Before Vietnam launched the war, the Soviet Union acted as if you fight first and I then sent troops. Vietnam had this layer of guarantee, and the military development achievements of its country over the years were indeed significant, so he gritted his teeth and confronted China head-on.
On the battlefield, the Vietnamese army
But Seeing that he was in a mess, the Soviet big brother couldn't move. China on the side has been offended, and if he offended the big brother, he would be photographed to death on the beach. So Vietnam comforted itself, it was okay, the Soviet Union still cared about itself.
You see:
The Soviet Union did not come, but it also provided intelligence and equipment support. The newly built large-scale air transport can directly transfer the army from Cambodia to Vietnam; it also provides hundreds of tanks , armored transport vehicles , mortar and anti-aircraft artillery, and even missiles and jet fighter are not short of .
The Vietnamese army holding weapons
The most important thing is that the Soviet Union has not yet produced people. Those thousands of military experts in 1979 helped a little.
And the Soviet Union did station a large number of troops on the Sino-Soviet and Sino-Mongolia borders. Communication information about the Chinese battlefield was continuously transmitted from the ship sent by the Soviet Pacific Fleet...
In addition to the so-called "sending troops to support", is also complete. The only thing that crashes
is: still can't beat China.
After the victory of the battle, happy soldiers
The unwilling Vietnam began to harass the Soviet Union every few days, begging the Soviet Union to send troops to support him in tears, but never received a positive response. The Vietnamese authorities gritted their teeth and began to repeatedly appease the soldiers on the front line: Don’t panic! Don't be messed up! Soviet support troops arrived soon!
However, as time goes by, the Vietnamese soldiers on the front line become more and more numb. Everyone read the telegrams taken by the government in the rear without expression, and after listening, they will put them aside. is coming soon. It’s been half an hour. Where is the person? I am afraid that China will enter Hanoi, and there may not be the so-called "Soviet Support Army".

As expected, until March 5, 1979, the Vietnamese army never waited for the Soviet Union's support army, but they waited for the statement from Xinhua News Agency in China, statement said that the People's Liberation Army had completed its established target and returned to North Korea.
html At 22:20 on December 15, the last military vehicle of the People's Liberation Army, , returned to Chinese territory, and the Vietnamese army chased behind, watching the big wheel cross the border between the two countries. The next day, China announced the end of its withdrawal operation and the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam was over.
The Vietnamese army hates it! Not very hard, very uneasy! It's so insulting, fight to the end! !
In this way, in the border area, Vietnam began to entangle China again. This time, China was not in a hurry to severely damage Vietnam, but accompanied Vietnam to fight on the border. Later, the 10-year border rotation war began...

was not strong enough, and there was no need to be
The ten-year rotation war was not yet mentioned, but the Vietnamese shouted "The Soviet Union must have a support army for about half an hour", while the Soviet Union's state of inaction from beginning to end also reflects a lot of things.
Robert Legwald once pointed out in "The Soviet Union and Vietnam War" that Vietnam can indeed form a restraint on China as the Soviet Union hoped, but Vietnam is not enough to make the Soviet Union decide to launch a war.
This is because although Vietnam confidently calls itself a military power, anyone with discerning eyes knows which China and Vietnam are stronger and more difficult.In addition, Vietnam is a bit far from the Soviet Union and it is difficult to become an effective ally. does not have enough interests, so the Soviet Union will naturally not agree to Vietnam and go to war with China head-on.
Vietnam has received a lot of equipment supported by the Soviet Union
Another reason is gin. Christopher M. mentioned in "How China Wins: Taking the Sino-Vietnam War in 1979 as an Example" : At that time, Deng Gong visited the United States and gave a very clear attitude:
"The child is naughty, it's time to spank."
This shows that The war between China and Vietnam is very limited, and China has no idea of eating Vietnam at all. In addition, the United States also made some measures to ease the situation at that time, which made the Soviet Union decide to wait and see for the time being. When it was discovered that China did not expand the war as it promised, the Soviet Union was concerned about the variables of the United States, so naturally it would not agree to Vietnam to send troops directly to support it.
Deng Gong, who went to the United States, visited
, it can be said that did not send troops to Vietnam at that time. It was a decision made after repeated considerations. It was a final conclusion drawn after weighing the situation and the pros and cons. just "hard" Vietnam, calling my elder brother thousands of miles away, but the elder brother is selectively pretending to be deaf.
