Moreover, the United States has a judgment that we look ridiculous now. Since the Korean War misjudged whether China sent troops, Americans have become more and more unrestrained. They think that Viet Nam may join China. . . . . Into a province of China, my god, this kind of imagination. So he went into battle shirtless and took the North Koreans to join the war that later made the Americans extremely painful.
Encouraged by the victory, the Vietnamese fought bravely against the Americans again. The battle lasted for 20 years. At the peak of 1967, nearly 600,000 American troops participated in the Vietnam War, and the whole North Vietnam was smashed by artillery.
The United States once wanted to completely solve North Vietnam by bombing. For example, the 43-month operation rolling thunder dropped 643,000 tons of bombs in North Vietnam, more than the entire Pacific War. These bombs did destroy three-fifths of the power plants and more than half of the main bridges in North Vietnam, but they did not achieve any strategic goals.
The war left deep wounds for Americans, such as the United States and the party leader John McCain, who was a naval pilot during the contract war. After being hit by Soviet anti-aircraft missiles, the Vietnamese caught him and imprisoned him for five years. What a tragedy.
According to his own description, he was killed twice a week, and his shoulder bone was smashed to pieces by Vietnamese with gun butts. Many American prisoners of war are kept in water dungeons all the year round, and their lower bodies rot. However, McCain is not fighting alone. During the Vietnam War, Vietnam shot down 7,000 uh-/kloc-0 helicopters, of which China helped shoot down more than 3,000.
