Why did Viet Nam call China 1979?

1976 After Vietnam defeated the United States, with the support of the Soviet Union, it launched the so-called Indo-zhina Federation Plan in Indo-China Peninsula in an attempt to dominate Indo-China Peninsula and constantly provoke and occupy China's territory. After repeated warnings failed, China was forced to counterattack in self-defense.

After that:

1979 February 17, China launched an all-round attack on Vietnam from the 772-mile-long border with China. Despite heavy casualties, the Vietnamese army advanced more than 40 kilometers from the border with Vietnam.

As long as necessary, China can occupy Hanoi, the Vietnamese capital. However, lang son, the last barrier to occupy Hanoi, announced its withdrawal on March 5 and completely withdrew to China on March 16.

Results:

China broke the encirclement of the Soviet Union and taught Vietnam a painful lesson. In the whole self-defense counterattack against China, China's major military regions took turns to send troops to participate in the war, and the Sino-Vietnamese border became a training ground, which not only tempered the actual combat capability of the Vietnamese army, but also indirectly brought down the Soviet Union.
