Since the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation have come to an end one after another, New China has also entered a stage of peaceful development and construction. Unexpectedly, a sudden war completely shattered the dream of the Chinese people to pursue peace. Vietnam, an ungrateful country that has repeatedly provoked our country's bottom line, has published an intolerable article in China's most authoritative People's Daily.
01 Vietnam countered China and leaned toward the Soviet Union
In Vietnam's war against the United States, China played an extremely important role. As we all know, Vietnam is close to our country, its security directly affects our borders, and it is reasonable for neighbors and brothers to have difficulties, and it is reasonable to lend a helping hand.
Although China was also in the stage of economic recovery and development at that time, China still generously donated money, successively assisting Vietnam with nearly 5 million tons of grain, providing a large number of weapons and ammunition at the same time, China also stationed nearly 300,000 PEOPLE's Liberation Army to support the Vietnam War, and also provided a large number of scientific and technological talents to Vietnam.
What is unexpected is that after obtaining China's help and winning the anti-aggression war, Vietnam suddenly did something that the dog bites Lu Dongbin and does not know the good people's hearts, and the muzzle of the gun is aimed at Neighboring countries such as Laos and Cambodia, and even China is also drawing a knife at each other.
Ho Chi Minh, the president of the Vietnamese state at that time, was inclined to our country and also introduced the revolutionary ideas of the great leader Chairman Mao into Vietnam. During his leadership, Ho Chi Minh was also very close to China.
Unfortunately, by 1969, Ho Chi Minh's health deteriorated and he eventually died of illness. The new leader, Lê Thanh, inherited the leadership position, and compared with Ho Chi Minh, he was not inclined to our country, but to the Soviet Union.
At that time, the relations between our country and the Soviet Union entered the freezing stage, the relations became more and more complicated, and the contradictions became more and more, so under the encouragement of the Soviet Union, Li Sun accepted this brainwashing and frequently provoked the sovereignty of our country.
02Su Yu and the others were opposed to sending troops, but Chen Yun said different views
After the founding of New China, the whole country was in the process of recovering and developing after the war, and at this time Vietnam was constantly shouting at our country with its nose on its face, and in the face of this situation, the CPC Central Committee began to hold meetings to discuss the issue of Vietnam's provocation of China's sovereignty, and Deng Xiaoping summoned leading cadres at all levels of the central authorities to solicit their opinions.
At this meeting, Su Yu and Ye Jianying and others all expressed their opposition to sending troops, because at this time Vietnam did not pose any threat to our country at all, and our main opponent was still the Soviet Union, and in Su Yu's view Chinese the plausible people's liberation army troops should focus on intervention in the Soviet Union, not Vietnam, and China was still in recovery, and it should be more than enough to fight again and not enough.
Su Yu and Ye Jianying's worries are also understandable, after all, Vietnam has embraced the soviet thigh, and once it fights with our country, the Soviet Union will insert another foot, which will have an extremely serious impact on our country.
Chen Yun's view is different from theirs, Chen Yun said:
"Although our country is still recovering after the war, it is effortless to attack Vietnam. Even if there is Soviet intervention, we do not have to worry, because the Soviet Center of Gravity is still in Europe, successively sent troops to Afghanistan, if the Soviet Union had intervened in Vietnam to help, it would take at least a month to mobilize troops under the circumstances. The attack on Vietnam requires a quick battle to achieve a final victory. ”
Chen Yun's views expressed Deng Xiaoping's voice, and it was only after Chen Yun's encouragement that Deng Xiaoping made the decision to send troops and ordered some military regions to enter a state of first-class combat readiness.
In this way, with everything in place, we quickly and smoothly took Vietnam, and he was completely convinced. Interestingly, in this Vietnam War, the Soviet Union's attitude was to ignore it and not send reinforcements at all, which shows that Vietnam at that time really lifted a stone and dropped it on its own feet and hugged the wrong thigh.
