At 22:30, about 15 o'clock before the bombing began......

In Ha Dong City, southwest of Hanoi, a convoy is rapidly heading south to Dong Lam Air Base southwest of Thanh Hoa. Sitting in the bulletproof sedan were Vietnamese President Vo Thanh Minh and his eldest son, Vo Ngoc Kit.

Under the arrangement of the CIA, Wu Yujie returned to Hanoi in the early morning of the 28th and met his father, who was commanding the operation.

After listening to his son's story, Wu Sanming was taken aback.

Subsequently, Nguyen Luong Ngoc appeared at the Vietnamese Embassy in the Republic and issued a "Letter to the Vietnamese People", and Vu Thanh Minh immediately made the decision to go to Ho Chi Minh City.

For the next 1 hour, father and son split up.

Wu Sanming summoned all the generals and senior officers who were loyal to him, arranged a combat operation to encircle and suppress Le Minh Jie, and demanded that all troops hold Hanoi and never evacuate without authorization. Vu Ngoc Kit was in charge of arranging the family's trip to Ho Chi Minh City, and in addition to taking away a large amount of fine and soft, he also arranged for a convoy to transport foreign exchange and precious metals from the Vietnamese treasury.

After dark, father and son left Hanoi by car.

The convoy traveled for about 1 hour before Wu Sanming breathed a sigh of relief.

"Father's ......"

"I didn't expect that. Nguyen Liangyu went to China. He also took refuge in China. Wu Sanming let out a long breath. Turning his gaze to the eldest son sitting beside him. "Perhaps. Can you explain why? ”

"Father. I ......"

Wu Yujie looked very embarrassed. Also hesitant.

As the eldest son of Wu Sanmingdi. Wu Yujie was called "the prince" by the Vietnamese. Among the 7 sons born to 2 wives. Wu Sanming's most important place is Wu Yujie. 11 years old. Wu Yujie was sent to Moscow by Wu Sanming. Received an elite education in the Soviet Union (before the collapse of the Soviet Union at that time). After 2 years. The collapse of the Soviet Union. Wu Yujie returned to China and lived for 1 year. He was then sent to London by Wu Sanming. At the age of 18. Wu Yujie was admitted to Cambridge University. Studied International Relations. After. Wu Yujie returned to China. Received a year-long training in militarization. Entered the Vietnamese Army with the rank of major. According to Wu Sanming's arrangement. Vu Ngoc Kiet will become Vietnam's future national leader. At this time. Vietnam-US relations have greatly improved. In 2005. At the age of 27, Wu Yujie went to the United States Military Academy at West Point for further study. It is necessary to systematically study the tactical thinking of the US military and the locality. It was also in the meantime. Wu Yujie was rebelled by the CIA.

It's just that. Wu Sanming never knew that his son was already a CIA spy.

Wu Yujie will not tell his father either. He was for misconduct. Rape 1 Vietnamese student in the United States. I was caught by the CIA. Later, he won the CIA beauty scheme. became a "senior spy" in the CIA.

After returning to China, Vo Ngoc Kiet served as the commander of the 19th Mechanized Infantry Division of the Hanoi Garrison (the division is the only fully mechanized armored unit in Vietnam, and its combat effectiveness is above the 7th Armored Division), and then concurrently served as the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau of the Vietnamese Army.

In the years that followed, Wu Yujie continued to act according to the CIA's instructions.

On national issues, Wu Yujie has always advocated the "China threat theory" and claimed that China's goal in building a modern air force and navy is to recover the Nansha Islands and the territorial waters of the South China Sea. To do this, Vietnam must build a military force that is sufficient to ensure national security and national interests. To achieve this goal, Vietnam must cooperate with the United States, import weapons and equipment from the United States, and learn tactical thinking.

I have to admit that there is some truth in Wu Yujie's analysis.

The Nansha and South China Sea issues cannot drag on forever, and they will have to be resolved sooner or later. Since disputes cannot be resolved by peaceful means, the only thing left is war.

Wu Yujie's viewpoint is exactly in line with Wu Sanmingdi's political needs.

As a military-turned-president, Vu Sam Minh Di's power base is the Vietnamese army. If he fails to achieve something in military construction, Vu Thanh Minh is likely to be replaced by Nguyen Luong Ngoc and Le Minh Giet, and lose his dominance over Vietnam. Even without the instigation of his son, Wu Sanming would have strengthened military construction.

The only thing Vietnam can rely on to carry out military modernization is the United States.

With the collapse of the Soviet Union and Russia's preoccupation with itself, Vietnam is unlikely to receive large sums of free military aid as it has in the past. Weapons and equipment in European countries are very expensive, and Vietnam can neither afford nor use them. China has always been wary of Vietnam and will not sell advanced weapons to Vietnam.

Wu Sanming had no choice but to move closer to the United States.

Using the Army Military Intelligence Bureau, Wu Yujie also eliminated many political opponents for his father.

In Wu Sanming's power system, Wu Yujie played a crucial role.

On personal issues, Wu Yujie not only persuaded his father to send several brothers to the United States to study on the grounds that "American education is ahead of its time," but also encouraged his father to invest in the United States and gradually transfer his assets to the United States.

Over the past few years, the assets transferred to the United States through Wu Yujie have exceeded 150 yuan.

After the economic crisis erupted, Wu Yujie accelerated the transfer of assets, and Wu Sanming also realized that war would soon break out, so his other children stayed in the United States in various ways (some of them had already obtained American citizenship).

In order to consolidate Vu Ngoc Jie's position, the United States spared no expense and vigorously assisted Vietnam.

It can be seen that the CIA not only rebelled against Vu Ngoc Kit, but also prepared to put Vu Ngoc Jie on the throne of the Vietnamese president, so as to achieve complete control of Vietnam.

Before the outbreak of the war, Wu Yujie provided Wu Sanming with a lot of "false" information.

According to the information provided by Wu Yujie, Wu Sanming not only knew that a military coup was about to take place in Laos, but also knew that China would send troops to suppress the military coup in Laos. Although Wu Sanming did not want a war with China over the old issue, under the lobbying of Wu Yujie, Wu Sanming believed that China would encircle Vietnam through Laos and send troops to overthrow the Vietnamese regime when the time came. What makes Wu Sanming even more convinced is that China is deepening reforms and will not have a full-scale military conflict with Vietnam, and as long as the Vietnamese army is the first to enter Laos and control the situation in Laos, China will accept the fait accompli.

The root cause of a very wrong strategic judgment lies in Wu Yujie.

The day before the coup d'état in Laos, Wu Yujie left Hanoi for Washington on the pretext of "negotiating military assistance."

After a few days, even if Wu Sanming was a fool, he guessed Wu Yujie's "identity".

After being watched by his father for a long time, Wu Yujie sighed and said: "The intelligence is provided by CIA~, after all, the United States is our ally." ”

"Allies?" Wu Sanming smiled faintly and said, "Do you think the United States is really our ally?" ”

Wu Yujie was late for a moment and said, "The problem is, we have no other choice. ”

Wu Sanming smiled bitterly, the family is unfortunate, what else is there to say?

"Father's ......" Wu Yujie is very clear about his father's character, "The United States not only issued a timely warning so that we could leave Hanoi calmly, but also promised to provide us with more military assistance." ”

"Really?" Wu Sanming's expression looked a little better.

"Within a month, the United States will provide equipment for at least ten infantry divisions, and thirty infantry divisions within six months. I have already offered for the United States to provide assistance in the area of military training. Vu Ngoc Jie showed a very determined look and said, "When we arrive in Ho Chi Minh City, we will be able to obtain twenty divisions of combat troops."

After receiving military assistance from the United States, we will be able to fight back to Hanoi in half a year, or at most a year! ”

Wu Sanming smiled faintly and said, "Do you think it's so easy to fight back to Hanoi?" ”

"I ......"

"If we could get back to Hanoi so easily, we wouldn't have to go to Ho Chi Minh City." Wu Sanming let out a sigh and asked, "How are our assets in the United States handled?" ”

"All of them have been deposited in banks in several countries according to your orders."

Wu Sanming nodded. "That's what we're all about. China will definitely help Nguyen Luong Ngoc capture Hanoi and get rid of Le Minh Giet. Even if China does not send troops to attack south in the short term, as long as Nguyen Luong Ngoc has the ability to control the situation in the north, he can win the support of the majority of the population. Three, maybe two years, we'll have to leave Vietnam. ”

"Impossible, Nguyen Luong Ngoc is just a civilian official, he ......"

"He has the full support of China, and to fight a civil war with Nguyen Luong Ngoc is to fight with China. Even if China does not send troops, it can give Nguyen a strong enough army through military assistance. Wu Sanming shook his hand, "In the conflict with Li Mingjie, we have lost the hearts of the people." In any case, we have to be ready to leave Vietnam. ”

"Father's ......"

Wu Sanming closed his eyes and didn't talk to his eldest son again.

Wu Yujie closed his mouth, with a hint of fear in his hesitant expression.

The convoy continued on its way, speeding towards its destination.

By this time, the first group of attack planes of the Air Force had dropped bombs and missiles on the ground defense units in the northern border area of Vietnam, and the bombing operation had officially begun.

At 22:50, the long-range artillery units directly under the corps went into battle.

In just over 1 hour, the Air Force dispatched nearly 400 combat aircraft and threw nearly 000~: ammunition at the Vietnamese army. Hundreds of large-caliber artillery pieces and heavy rockets fired hundreds of salvos, firing nearly 100,000 shells and rockets at Vietnamese positions.

The suffocating firepower strike kicked off the Republican Army's march into Vietnam.

Just after 23 o'clock, the combat operation of naval aviation began.

The C111 Group, which launched the first round of attacks, launched long-range land-attack missiles over the South China Sea against one air base, naval base, and military command center in the Philippines on Luzon, Mindoro, and Palawan. Subsequently, H-6M bombers belonging to the HNA launched hundreds of air-launched cruise missiles at more than 20 other Category A targets.

Because the Philippines does not have a decent long-range air defense system, the first to bomb are military bases.

The USS Republic aircraft carrier battle group, which was operating in the northern waters of the Nansha Islands, dispatched carrier-based fighters to first attack Philippine Navy ships entering the South China Sea, and then bombed the islands occupied by the Philippines.

At 23 o'clock, the first marines left the landing fleet by helicopter.

Unlike in the past, the international radio and television station did not carry out "live reports" until the early morning of the 29th, when the combat operations on the Nansha islands and reefs occupied by Lu Bing were reported.

International public opinion was in an uproar, and the Philippines became the fourth country to be involved in the war! (To be continued)
