In March 1979, Vietnam was in the midst of a fierce self-defense counterattack against Vietnam. At the same time, above the South China Sea, 36 Soviet ** ships quietly sailed in, like a giant lion with teeth open in the night, looking down coldly at the surroundings. This fleet is waiting for the right moment to try to outflank China's rear, putting China in extreme tension and danger. However, at this critical moment, another powerful aircraft carrier fleet slowly sailed into the sea, and the American flag was flying on the ship.
At this moment, the two superpowers on the sea looked at each other angrily, shaking the world. China has been relieved by this. It all stemmed from the betrayal of Vietnam. During World War II, Vietnam was invaded by Japan and then France. In 1950, shortly after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Vietnam suddenly turned to China for help. Although China itself is also striving to develop in difficult times and is still engaged in the fierce War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea with the United States, it still generously assists Vietnam, provides a large number of first-class equipment and materials, and sends troops to support Vietnam in the war.
With the help of China, Vietnam gradually regained lost ground and drove France out of the country. China continued to provide assistance to Vietnam in the following decade, especially in the face of the U.S. invasion, when China again came to the aid of 320,000 people in Vietnam. Eventually, the United States was forced to withdraw from Vietnam, but China was also demoralized. This history fully demonstrates China's active participation in international affairs and sincere assistance to neighboring countries, while also highlighting the hardships and sacrifices that China has experienced in its game with powerful powers.
After the end of the Vietnam War, our country not only sent a large number of troops to them, but also provided assistance on several occasions after the war, including repairing facilities and providing funds. This shows that our country has spent a lot of money and energy in this war. Even in the days when the problem of food and clothing was not solved at home, we invested a lot of resources to support the war between the two countries. However, we do not expect Vietnam to be grateful for this, but at least we do not want to be treated with revenge.
However, the result we have obtained is that the overseas Chinese have been expelled, our territory has been violated, and even joint confrontation has been encountered. So when the situation got to this point, we couldn't take it anymore. Therefore, it is imperative to fight a self-defense counterattack against Vietnam. Our purpose is not to provoke war, but to quell it. When Le Duan came to power, the situation changed dramatically. He broke the peace between North and South Vietnam, annulled the armistice, launched an offensive against South Vietnam, and finally unified Vietnam.
However, Le Duan's ambitions do not stop there, he wants to become the hegemon of Indochina, but this requires the support of other countries. He doesn't think of us when he encounters good things and is the first to think of us when he encounters bad things. Le Duan wanted China to support his plans to annex Cambodia and Laos. However, China** has made its refusal clear. It was not easy to drive out the foreign enemy, and just wanted to catch their breath, North Korea needed assistance, and Vietnam also needed assistance. The war has finally been quelled, do they want our support again?
China** has unequivocally rejected this. Subsequently, Vietnam turned its attention to the Soviet Union. On November 3, 1978, the Soviet Union and Vietnam signed the Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation between the Soviet Union and Vietnam. However, at this time, Vietnam has launched more than 700 provocations against China, seriously endangering the personal safety and property safety of Chinese citizens. Therefore, on December 7, 1978, China convened a conference on whether to launch a self-defense counterattack against Vietnam.
The Vietnam War had a significant impact on the foreign policy of China and the United States, including shrewd decision-making and an important turning point in Sino-American relations. Against the background of Vietnam's cooperation with the USSR, ** realized that the USSR could pose a threat to China, and therefore decided to adopt a "blitzkrieg" strategy of a rapid offensive against Vietnam. The success of this strategy is a testament to the sober analysis and accurate judgment of China, as well as China's active role in international relations.
At the same time, the formal establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States also took place during this period, which was seen as a strategic riposte to the Soviet Union. ** During his visit to the United States, he expressed his concerns about Vietnam and the deployment of Soviet military bases around the world. This move demonstrates China's proactive stance in international affairs and has had a positive impact on Sino-US relations.
** Shortly after returning to China, China launched an attack on Vietnam on February 17, 1979, which surprised everyone and gave the mistaken impression that it was supported and encouraged by the United States. However, on March 12, 1979, the Soviet Union did indeed take action, massing forces on a large scale and dispatching six military regions to prepare for war in an all-round way. At the same time, China has a total of 36 ships operating in the South China Sea.
China instantly fell into a state of extreme tension, although it had long been mentally prepared, although the tanks and artillery shells had long been in a state of readiness, but at this moment the people of the whole country felt unprecedented tension. This is the most dangerous moment in the 30 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China!Fortunately, the intervention of the United States effectively prevented further actions of the Soviet Union, which was always watching the situation.
However, while they were still watching, a huge figure slowly appeared on the sea level, and then the figure of a fleet appeared, with the American flag fluttering on it, as if to warn the Soviet Union. The arrival of the United States is like a ray of light in the darkness, although the reaction of the United States is unpredictable whether the Soviet Union will continue to attack, but its appearance is indeed effective in deterring the Soviet Union. The meeting of the two great maritime powers, in the end neither side took the plunge. The USSR stopped further provocations, and China gradually turned the tide.
In short, relations between states depend on interests, there are no permanent allies, and there are no permanent enemies. Only the enemy does not offend me, and I do not offend the enemy;If the enemy sins against me, I will be angry. The far-sightedness of the leaders is truly admirable, and they skillfully use tactics to provide the conditions and opportunities for the development of the country.
