In recent years, in addition to the friction on the Sino-Indian border, the last war between the People's Liberation Army can be traced back to the war against Vietnam in 1979.
Vietnam, which considered itself the third largest in the world before the war, was beaten by China in less than a month without any temper. Although China chose to withdraw its troops directly, for decades, no one dared to commit suicide with China again.
In fact, this is closely related to a command from Mr. Deng when he fought against Vietnam.
In the early morning of February 17, 1979, China's southern border. Countless artillery and rockets roared, and the shells hit the Vietnamese positions like fire dragons.
China's self-defense counterattack against Vietnam broke out. It can be said that China's "good temper" has been forced to endure by Vietnam. After
was yelling with the United States to avoid its strategic misjudgment, the People's Liberation Army launched an attack on Vietnam, a ungrateful wolf who received Chinese aid and also came to invade Chinese territory.
At that time, Vietnam thought it was so awesome that it not only drove away the American invaders, but also supported by the Soviet Union, and openly claimed to be the third military power in the world.
When facing the People's Liberation Army's attack, the Vietnamese thought they could fight the US imperial examination and fight with the Chinese army like they were.
But they forgot that from the perspective of war, they can only be regarded as Chinese students. How many of the people who can defeat the United States are the result of China and the Soviet Union supporting each other.
The unaware Vietnamese army quickly tasted the pain. After bombing with various heavy artillery for a full thirty minutes, 360,000 People's Liberation Army soldiers who had already assembled had launched an attack in the east and west lines.
After our army launched an attack, the Vietnamese felt that their long-standing army could completely deal with the People's Liberation Army that had not fought for many years. They believed that the 360,000 People's Liberation Army was not enough for the Vietnamese to fight.
even once again shouted a slogan to hit Friendship Pass for breakfast.
Therefore, in this way, underestimating the enemy is not acceptable in war. The Vietnamese who underestimated the enemy only sent three divisions of troops to try to get into a chariot. Xu Shiyou, who was commanding the battle, did not expect that on the first day of the war, the Vietnamese gave him such a big gift.
The PLA's combat plan was completed in just three hours before the war.
After the Vietnamese recovered, they also began to make targeted deployments. As a student of the Chinese army, the Vietnamese still have some tricks to deploy troops.
For example, when attacking Gaoping , the 346th Division of the Vietnamese main force dispersed its forces, hoping to use guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare to delay our army's advance and cause the greatest damage to our army.
This method may have some effect on the military forces of Western countries like the United States. But you should know that China is the ancestor of guerrilla warfare. The behavior of Vietnamese can only be said to be the big sword in front of Guan Gong .
So, after discovering the enemy's abnormality, Xu Shiyou quickly figured out the Vietnamese's ideas and directly chose to use the tactic of pulling the net to clear it out.
takes each commanding height as nodes, and then forms a network of encirclement and suppression, utilizes superior forces to continuously compress the living space of the Vietnamese army.
In terms of tactical intersperses, China is unique in the world. In less than ten days, the 346th Division was surrounded and wiped out.
As cities such as Gaoping, and log in continue to fall, Vietnam's Li Duan Group began to panic. Because at this time, the only one that is placed in front of Hanoi in the capital of Vietnam is Lang Son .
Once Lang Son is destroyed, the PLA's armored force can drive straight into the Hanoi city in just two hours.
So, if you keep Lang Son, you can keep the capital.In order to defend Hanoi, the 3rd Division, 327th Division, 337th Division and 197th Regiment of the Vietnamese Army gathered together, and a total of 100,000 troops wanted to fight the People's Liberation Army to the death.
The key to the People's Liberation Army's war against Vietnam is to defeat Lang Son and give the Li Duan Group enough deterrence. In Lang Sang City, there is a very poor river, divided into new and old urban areas with the river as the boundary.
At that time, the Central Military Commission had no choice but to capture the new city on the north bank of the river.
But this is not easy. Due to terrain reasons, there is only one highway surrounded by mountains that can enter Lang Son. The Vietnamese 3rd Division is stationed nearby. If it attacks rashly, it will inevitably suffer huge losses.
So General Xu Shiyou thought of a move taught him that an enemy had taught him that year, namely firepower coverage.
At this time, the People's Liberation Army was no longer the era of Xiaomi adding rifles. In order to open the Lang Son passage, the PLA used intensive artillery to open the road and unplug the Vietnamese high ground bases one by one.
Xu Shiyou
Vietnamese army was not the Korean War Chinese People's Volunteer Army , and had no power to fight back against our army's offensive. Less than two days after the Battle of Lang Son, our army pulled out all the peripheral strongholds and surrounded Lang Son.
retreated step by step, and even used chemical weapons to cause harm to our army. He also turned black and white in the international community and continued to arrogantly clamor for the People's Liberation Army to never defeat Lang Son.
How stupid is this? General Xu Shiyou quickly found the 55th Army. After the combat mission was issued, more than 300 cannons from the artillery regiment were bombarded at important targets in Lang Sang City.
bombed for less than an hour, and most of the Vietnamese army's fortifications and important targets in Lang Sang City were basically gone. After the shelling of
, our army also crossed Qiqiuhe on the basis of completing the established goals and chased for several kilometers to the south.
After the fall of Lang Sang City, although it is still more than 100 kilometers away from the Vietnamese capital Hanoi, there is no danger of defending these more than 100 kilometers. Even the arrogant Li Duan Group thinks that Hanoi is going to lose.
But just as the whole world was waiting to see the PLA conquer Hanoi, the PLA chose to withdraw its troops.
Although the Vietnamese shamelessly said that they had defeated the People's Liberation Army, after this war, neighboring Chinese countries, including Vietnam, dared not easily engage in China.
This is closely related to Mr. Deng’s arrangement after issuing the withdrawal order.
During the Western Han Dynasty, China once established Jiaozhi County during the Vietnam period, and incorporated most of Vietnam's territory into the Central Plains dynasty.
However, as the strength of the Central Plains dynasty declined, in 938, the Annan Jiedushi made General Wu Quan defeat the Southern Han army of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and established Wu Dynasty in Vietnam, which in fact got rid of the control of the Central Plains dynasty.
For more than a thousand years after that, Vietnam has basically wandered outside the Central Plains dynasty. Even if it comes back occasionally, it will leave quickly.
In modern times, Vietnam was gradually controlled by France and became a bridgehead for France in Southeast Asia. China and Vietnam have also established deep friendships against the backdrop of opposing colonialism.
On September 2, 1945, Democratic Republic of Vietnam was established.
, and the French colonists who ran away in World War II hoped to make a comeback, and also supported a puppet regime, landed in Vietnam at the end of 1945, and began to arm the attack on Vietnam's socialist regime.
At this time, the Communist Party of China has not yet seized national power, but is also supporting the Vietnamese brothers who are suffering from French invasion.
After the founding of New China, it was the first to recognize the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, and to provide it with a large amount of military and economic aid, helping it fight against the French invaders, and later the American invaders.
my country's aid to Vietnam is really very polite.
According to incomplete statistics, during the anti-France period alone, China provided 155,000 guns, thousands of cannons, millions of shells, thousands of bullets, and thousands of various cars.
At that time, China was still poor and we generously took out nearly 20,000 tons of grain.
In addition to giving supplies, we also sent military instructors to help the Vietnamese People's Army train troops. Relying on China's guerrilla tactics, Vietnamese talents have successfully defeated the French and American invaders.
In theory, this kind of friendship can be considered a death-making life. But Vietnamese don’t think so. Our country did not expect that Vietnamese white-eyed wolves would use China’s aid to deal with China.
In 1975, after the North Vietnamese regime drove away the Americans, it overthrew the South Vietnamese regime and achieved national reunification.
However, after the reunification of the country, Vietnam's self-confidence was extremely inflated. It claimed to be the third largest military power in the world and began to cause trouble in Southeast Asia.
In fact, in ancient times, the Vietnamese planned to occupy the entire Indochina Peninsula . But in the 1970s, Vietnamese finally had the ability to turn all this into facts.
invaded South-South Asia and occupied Cambodia . The Vietnamese are not idle either and start to make trouble with China. At that time, there were some contradictions between China and the Soviet Union.
And the Vietnamese hugged the Soviet Union tightly and wanted to build a territorial waters from China in the Sino-Soviet conflict.
So China and Vietnam began to get into evil. The Vietnamese army continued to cross our country's borders, established military strongholds on our territory, and killed military and civilians on our borders.
At that time, China could not bear it anymore, in order to enable the upcoming reform and opening up of to have a more stable international environment, my country launched the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam in 1979.
Through 28 days of punishment, Vietnam knew that the Vietnamese army was not enough in front of the People's Liberation Army. However, Vietnam was still dissatisfied at that time, and even now it still said that they were "fighting away" the People's Liberation Army.
But is this really the case? After withdrawing his troops, what arrangements did Mr. Deng make to completely die for Vietnam?
China's withdrawal is actually reasonable. China does not intend to encircle the territory of other countries, our purpose is very simple.
is to teach Vietnam a lesson and get back our invaded territory, that is, to fight back on our own defense.
According to the statistics of the Kunming Military Region after the war, our army killed more than 52,000 Vietnamese troops in 28 days and injured countless people. Such heavy military losses basically achieved the purpose of punishing Vietnam.
Although Lang Son is only 10 to 20 kilometers away from China, these dozens of kilometers of roads are the most difficult part of the way from China's border to Hanoi.
Our army can defeat Lang Son, which means that our army can defeat Hanoi. Just like when our army was able to win New Delhi , but chose to withdraw its troops. Although
failed to hit Hanoi, the Vietnamese authorities have been in chaos and the purpose of deterrence has been achieved.
Moreover, when Vietnam was guarding Lang Son, it had already used biochemical weapon . After Lang Sang City was broken, the Li Duan Group issued a national mobilization order to fight the People's Liberation Army.
Although we have the ability to defeat them, we cannot guarantee that the Vietnamese will do anything disgusting, causing unnecessary casualties to the People's Liberation Army.
And the international situation also changed a little at that time. It is said that it will take at least one month for the Soviet Union's main force in Europe to be transferred to the Sino-Soviet border.
So the 28-day period happened to be a time difference. It is said that the Soviet army had already shown some signs of mobilization at that time. In short, after completing the combat goals, our army chose to retreat. But we were not idle when we retreated.
Since northern Vietnam, cities like Lang Son and Gao Ping are close to China and far away from the battlefield with South Vietnam, they received the most Chinese aid here, and their industries and infrastructure are also pretty good.
So when we withdrew our troops, we took back all the supplies we had provided back to our country. What you can't carry with will be blown up directly on the spot.
Those factories were also razed to the ground by our army. Railways, highways, wires, hospitals, schools and other infrastructure in the northern Vietnam region were completely destroyed.
It can be said that we not only took away most of the things we helped back then, but also made the Vietnamese pay a lot of interest.
After our army retreated to the country, the Vietnamese chased them to the border. The Li Duan Group is in a difficult situation. can fight, but you can't beat the People's Liberation Army, so you won't fight, and it's hard to explain to the country.
So Li Duan Group not only shamelessly acted as a "spiritual Q", but also said that it would not count if it won. A large number of small-scale troops were also sent to build military facilities on the Laoshan and other mountains in our country.
Faced with this situation, Deng Gong chose the method of being clever. He did not directly let the army fight back to Vietnam again. Instead, choose a rotational battle against Vietnam.
After the end of , the PLA has not received the baptism of blood and fire for a long time. Since Vietnamese come up to seek death by themselves, that's just right.
So the two mountains fought a rotation. During the long two-mountain rotation battle, our army's ten armies went to the battlefield.
In the real war, our army was constantly exploring new tactics and tactics, and various new weapons were the first to greet the Vietnamese.
During the two mountains, our army suffered a total of 4,603 casualties, while Vietnam paid the price of 30,695 people being annihilated.
Just from the number of casualties, our army has already won a huge victory. , but Mr. Deng’s order is far from that simple.
Judging from what Vietnam has done, the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam has not awakened the Vietnamese. Since the wolf's ambition is still there, let's continue fighting.
For us, the two mountain areas are just a corner of our long border. We can calmly transfer the troops across the country to train.
But for Vietnam, they can only rely on the national strength to fight. At the end of the last century, the best time to undertake the transformation of overseas industries.
The Vietnamese focus on the military. Years of war not only made it lose the energy to dominate the Indochina Peninsula again, but the domestic economy was also dragged down by the military.
Under this situation, Vietnam opened a hole in the military for doing business, which also caused serious military corruption in Vietnam today.
The Vietnamese fought until 1989 and gradually recovered and began to actively seek peace from China.
has been defeated by the war for ten years, and this gap will never be filled by Vietnam.
At that time, Vietnam was not the only neighbor who had touched China. Many people have questioned the combat effectiveness of the People's Liberation Army in the 1970s and questioned the Communist Party of China's determination to safeguard national sovereignty.
At this moment, the Vietnamese ungrateful wolf stood up and told those ambitious people who were ready to move with their actual actions that the People's Liberation Army is not easy to mess with, and it is not easy to mess with!
