In the first battle of Qiongya, a brigade of the entire French army was completely wiped out, 15,000 Vietnamese colonial troops were also completely wiped out, and one-third of the French troops were wiped out at once.

And what's worse is that they don't know this situation, Lu Yuguang found that the Vietnamese troops had captured the French army's radio station, and even the code book that had not had time to be destroyed, and suddenly had a plan, he sent a telegram to the French reinforcements, asking them to rush to Qiongya as soon as possible to rescue, and ordered the Vietnamese to deliberately keep a few strongholds, disguised as if they were still fighting.

The rest of the team all used the limited time to quickly rest, recover their strength, and wait for the total annihilation of the French reinforcements, sure enough, as Lu Yuguang expected, after the French got the distress telegram, they were extremely anxious, their task was to save the French army trapped in Qiongya, how could they see the troops being wiped out, so they immediately accelerated the march, and also sent planes to reconnoitre.

Through the observation of the aircraft, it was found that the situation of the French army was worse than imagined, the Vietnamese had rushed into Qiongya, and the French army could only defend with a limited number of positions, and it was about to be lost, so the French reinforcements could only speed up the march again and again, and did not dare to have any slack.

They didn't know that a huge trap had been laid in Qiongya waiting for them to jump, these French reinforcements quickly passed the pontoon bridge on the Tuojiang River, Qiongya was already in sight, just when they were about to save their trapped partners, they suddenly heard a sound of bull roaring from the upper reaches of the Tuojiang River, and then a huge white wave rushed down the river, and the pontoon bridge was completely destroyed in an instant, the water level of the Tuojiang River soared, overflowing the riverbank, and the huge torrent swept away all the materials that the French did not have time to transport.

This was prepared by the Vietnamese for a long time, and they built a simple dam in advance to stop the water of the Taotao River, and at this time used bombs to blow the dam open. Suddenly, the flood was raging. However, this flood did not last long, and only temporarily stopped the French, and with the help of French sappers, they were soon able to rebuild a pontoon bridge.

But this was enough time, the Vietnamese guerrillas were already rushing at the French from all sides, all the weapons were fired together, and the various artillery pieces had already calculated the firing angles in advance. The dense shells completely covered the French, and the violent explosions quickly harvested lives.

The blazing monoliths sliced through one flesh after another, turning the French into a pile of rotten flesh, a relentless accumulation of bullets, grenades, mortars, and all the other weapons that could be used.

The French also instantly understood that they had been deceived. Qiongya is afraid that it has fallen a long time ago, and now this is just a trap for them, in the face of the surging Vietnamese soldiers, the French have no choice, they can only rely on their dozens of tanks as a cover, try to stabilize their position.

And the Vietnamese were also crazy at this time, although they had just experienced a bloody battle and were exhausted. But being able to wreak havoc on these French colonists was what excites them the most. You must know that France has done a lot of evil things in Vietnam over the years, and a blood debt has been recorded in everyone's heart. Those who were able to join the guerrillas had a deep hatred for the French, and how could they not be excited to be able to torture and kill those high-ranking Frenchmen now.

Although the French had tanks to help, but the Vietnamese also had anti-tank guns, after paying more than 200 lives, the Vietnamese blew up all the French tanks, and the remaining French suddenly became toothless tigers, in order to pursue the speed of the march, they carried not many heavy weapons, and most of them were destroyed by artillery shelling, and now the tanks are also lost, and how can these French resist.

Moreover, at this time, the sky was getting dark, and the air force was afraid that it would be difficult to provide effective cover, and behind it was the white waves of the Tuojiang River, and there were elusive Vietnamese guerrillas in the deep mountains, and it was a desperate situation in front of the French.

At this time, the Vietnamese also chose some people who could speak French, and shouted loudly for these French to surrender, in fact, in the cognitive field of Westerners, they do not think that surrender is a shameful thing, and when there is no hope, it is forgivable to choose to surrender, and even some captured people will be treated as heroes after they go back.

This is completely different from the concept of the East, in fact, this can also be found out from history, the Western world since the Roman Empire, has been divided into countless small countries, all day long fighting, killing, being captured is a common thing, if everyone sacrifices their lives for righteousness, I am afraid that the Western world will not exist for a long time.

It's just that this instinctive behavior later developed into preferential treatment of prisoners and became a symbol of the progress of Western civilization, which is really a reversal of right and wrong.

Although the surrender can be forgiven, the French are really a little unacceptable to surrender to these Vietnamese monkeys who were colonized by them in the past, and they still have to be embarrassed, and the first army power cannot become the laughing stock of the world.

However, the French soon gave up this arrogant insistence, and the overwhelming artillery fire woke up these French people, dignity is important, but life is more precious, of course, some French people are more worried, they also know how many evil things they have done, especially the Vietnamese may not treat the prisoners well.

The encirclement is getting smaller and smaller, the French have gradually been divided, into small pieces, constantly being ruthlessly eliminated, some French no longer want to make senseless sacrifices, choose to surrender, some people died in battle, the rest of the people swam across the Tuojiang River, frantically fled to Dien Bien Phu, but what awaits them is endless attacks, most of these French did not survive this night.

The war came to an end temporarily, and after the Battle of Qiongya, the Vietnamese eliminated more than 6,000 French soldiers and captured more than 1,000 prisoners, in addition to more than 20,000 Vietnamese colonial troops were wiped out.

Nguyen Ai Ao also looked very excited, although he knew that more than 8,000 people had to be sacrificed for this victory, but it was enough, they finally defeated the French, and from this moment on the troops he led were no longer guerrillas, but regular troops.

He wanted to completely drive the French out of the land of Vietnam and establish an independent Republic of Vietnam with the armed forces in his hands, and after Nguyen Aiguo quickly reorganized his troops in Qiongya, he immediately ordered the army to drive to Dien Bien Phu, and he wanted to wipe out the French power in one fell swoop.

As long as you can take Dien Bien Phu. There were not many French troops left in the whole of North Vietnam. Hanoi is at your fingertips, and then the whole of Vietnam.

However, this is just Ruan Aiguo's dream, and Qiao Yu, who is in Beijing at this time, has already gathered all the main civil and military officials under him.

As the chief of the general staff, Jiang Baili was still the first to speak, he first introduced the situation of the North Vietnam Campaign, and then said: "This time Lu Yuguang commanded very beautifully, the French army suffered heavy losses, and it was also a huge blow to France's international prestige. The fact that the world's No. 1 army power can't even defeat some guerrillas is definitely a shame for the French army, and France at this time has definitely become the laughing stock of the world! ”

Everyone present was also very happy, and they also admired Qiao Yu's courage very much, some of them were afraid of the power of France, and did not advocate taking the initiative to provoke the French. Now I look at France as nothing more than that, just a paper tiger.

Qiao Yu glanced at the smiling crowd and said, "Everyone, the victory is certainly worth rejoicing, but we must also keep a clear head, the Vietnamese have won this war, and their power will inevitably expand rapidly, which is also the prelude to Nguyen Aiguo's desire to get rid of our control." You can't afford not to guard against it. We can't drive out the French and make wedding clothes for the Vietnamese! ”

Qiao Yu knows what Vietnam is like. In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't want this land, it's just to support a puppet regime, this kind of thing The United States in later generations gave Qiao Yu too many plans, even if Ruan Aiguo wants to get rid of control, there is nothing to be afraid of.

There are only two kinds of countries in this world, one is a big country and the other is a small country, a big country can control its own destiny, and a small country can only be dominated by others, this is an eternal truth, Vietnam can only be a small country.

But now Qiao Yu has a bigger plan for Vietnam, he wants to completely annex this land to China, the fertile Mekong Delta and the Red River Delta are big granaries, which can accommodate a large number of people, and China must not give up.

In fact, since Qiao Yu came to power, China's economy has developed rapidly, the medical level has been steadily improved, the population has naturally expanded rapidly, the concept of Chinese people with many sons and more blessings is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is not very good to change for a while, just in 1925 China conducted a thorough census, China's total population has reached 480 million, more than 500 million is just around the corner.

And this is just the beginning, according to demographers' estimates, even with appropriate birth control measures, it is quite normal for China's population to exceed 700 million by 1950, and eventually China's population will not slow down until it exceeds 1 billion.

Qiao Yu has no doubts about this data, and even believes that this is an underestimation of the ability of the Chinese, and in the face of huge population pressure, it has become an inevitable choice to bring grain-rich Southeast Asia into China's control.

"Does the president mean that from now on we will change our policy towards Nguyen Aiguo and restrict him?" Wu Tong asked on the side.

Qiao Yu nodded, "Nguyen Aiguo and others represent the awakening of Vietnamese nationalism, once they take power, it will be countless times more difficult to deal with than the French, this is the era when nationalism is in vogue, we have to guard against it, I am ready to send an invitation to France, we will hold an international conference in Geneva to discuss peace in Vietnam!" ”

The League of Nations is an international organization established after World War I, controlled by Britain and France, the United States was not satisfied with the Treaty of Versailles, did not participate in the League of Nations, China naturally did not participate, and red Russia was also excluded.

However, at this time, China's choice to resolve the Vietnam War within the framework of the League of Nations can be regarded as a sign of respect for the League of Nations. Qiao Yu first revealed this intention to the British, Britain is very concerned about the war in Southeast Asia, the British Empire also has too many colonial interests in Asia, if something goes wrong, it will definitely kill the British, so the British are also very willing to be peacemakers, now it depends on the attitude of France!
