"On July 7 and July 10, 1950 - only two weeks after the United States sent troops to North Korea, Zhou Enlai presided over two collective meetings of Chinese leaders to study and analyze the impact of the US military actions on China.

The plan began. The participants agreed to send the troops originally stationed on the coast of Fujian for the purpose of liberating (Kissinger's original word, invading) Taiwan to the Sino-North Korean border and reorganizing them into the Northeast Border Defense Force to "defend the Northeast border and

"Support the Korean People's Army" as its mission.

By the end of July - more than two months before the US military crossed the 38th Parallel, as many as 250,000 Chinese troops had been deployed on the China-North Korea border.

Meetings of the Central Political Bureau and the Central Military Commission continued to be held in August. On August 4, six weeks before the Incheon landing, the situation was still quite favorable to the invading North Korean army. The front line was still deep in South Korea, approaching Pusan. Mao suspected

North Korea's capabilities, warned his Politburo:

"If the U.S. imperialists win, they will be dazzled by victory; then they will come for us. We must help North Korea, we must support them. This can be in the form of a volunteer army, in any country we choose.

Time, but we have to be ready."

At this meeting, Zhou also made the same analysis:

"If the U.S. imperialists defeat North Korea, they will become arrogant and peace will be threatened. If we want to ensure victory, we must increase China's influence, which may change the international situation. We must make long-term plans."

In short, it was the defeat of the North Korean forces that were still expected to advance--not the exact location of the American troops--that China had to prevent. The next day, Mao ordered his top generals to "within two months

Complete the order to prepare and wait to join the war."

These are excerpts from "On China" and are also the results of Kissinger's research. This result led Kissinger to believe that "China's strategy usually exhibits three characteristics: a clear analysis of long-term development trends, tactical options

Careful research, and separate exploration of operational decisions.”

"This all happened a few weeks before MacArthur's amphibious landing at Inchon. In fact, a Chinese strategic research team predicted this event. At that time, it was still a month away from the United Nations' crossing of the 38th parallel.

To put it simply, China's participation in the war was based on considerations of strategic trends, not in response to a specific tactical move by the United States, let alone to defend the legal certainty of the 38th Parallel.

China's offensive is a pre-emptive strategy to avoid dangers that have not yet occurred and is based on a misunderstanding of the United States' ultimate intentions.

It certainly also expresses the key role North Korea plays in China's long-term strategic calculations - especially in today's world where matters are more mundane."

This approach was also reflected in the continued leadership. In 1978, with the support of the Soviet Union, Vietnam launched a full-scale war of aggression against Cambodia and occupied the entire territory of Cambodia, attempting to occupy Laos and Cambodia and merge them into Vietnam's territory.

Established the "Indochina Federation" and incidentally put forward the slogan "Occupy Nanning for the Spring Festival".

The second-generation leader said meaningfully, "If a child disobeys, it's time to spank him."
