During Vietnam's resistance to France and the United States, China gave Vietnam a large amount of military and economic assistance, but Vietnam did not know how to report that it had continuously provoked China's borders for seventy years. It turned out that Vietnam was relying on these three advantages and thought that it could compete with our country, but in the end it was self-inflicted.
Troops quickly took Laos and Cambodia, believing that the national fortune was in charge
After the capture of Saigon in 1975, Vietnam's southernmost important city was liberated, and the U.S. military announced that it would no longer support South Vietnam and began to withdraw from Vietnam, pushing Vietnam to achieve national reunification. The Vietnamese leader Lê Duồng, who subsequently came to power, did not focus on resuming production and construction, but launched a war of aggression against Laos and Cambodia on the pretext of establishing the so-called Federation of Indochina.
Because Laos was relatively weak and small, it was quickly controlled by Vietnam, and through the signing of the Lao-Vietnamese Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation, Laos was gradually controlled by Vietnam militarily and economically. Vietnam also wanted to do the same to Cambodia, but at this time Cambodia was ruled by the Khmer Rouge regime, causing small frictions between the two sides.
On December 25, 1978, Vietnam gathered more than a dozen divisions and directly invaded Cambodia, pushing its troops to its capital Phnom Penh in only half a month and controlling all of Cambodia. Vietnam from the reunification of North Vietnam and South Vietnam to the control of Laos and Cambodia, in less than four years, is to realize the "federal dream", thinking that the national fortune is the head, and has a kind of gambling on the national fortune to launch a war of aggression against our country.
After a long war, the Vietnamese troops consider themselves the third military power in the world
After the end of World War II in 1945, France invaded saigon, Vietnam began to fight a war to overthrow French rule, in 1961 the United States supported the South Vietnamese regime, leading to the outbreak of the Vietnam War, Vietnam and the United States led a multinational coalition, waging a war for more than a decade, until 1975
In the thirty-year-long war, Vietnam received a lot of military assistance from the Soviet Union and China, its weapons and equipment have been greatly improved, and the level of military modernization is high.
The Vietnamese army has a million people after a long war baptism, think that the military combat experience is rich, coupled with the so-called Soviet expert training, Vietnam believes that the actual combat ability is strong, Cambodia was quickly taken down, so that Vietnam feels that pure military quality is invincible.
Vietnam is precisely because it has a lot of advanced military equipment and an army that has been engaged in war for a long time, and believes that in addition to the United States and the Soviet Union, even Japan and France are not opponents in the world, not to mention our country, which has repeatedly provoked and is very restrained.
It is believed that there is a Soviet Union in the north, and someone will hold the field at any time
In the seventies, relations between our country and the Soviet Union were tense, and both sides hoarded a large number of troops along the border line. In order to contain our country, the Soviet Union thought of cultivating an ally in the south. Therefore, it increased its support for Vietnam, promised various economic assistance policies, and established military alliances.
After a series of pie-drawing operations in the Soviet Union, the Vietnamese authorities believed that launching aggression against our country would benefit from no harm and would not only gain the benefits of occupying the land, but also have the support and help of the Soviet Union at any time.
On February 17, 1979, our army fired thousands of artillery at the 500-kilometer border between China and Vietnam, and the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam officially closed the prelude, occupying more than 20 areas in northern Vietnam within a month.
In this process, Vietnam is proud of advanced military equipment, strong combat effectiveness, destroyed and destroyed and crippled, the big brother Soviet Union continued to pretend to sleep in the north, did not intervene in this side of the matter at all, Vietnam relied on the three advantages, all did not show up, set off a war on its own, can only swallow with tears.
