Dear Chinese People's Liberation Army: Hello! We have received your letters, and we will meet on the ground and exchange languages ​​with each other. We all hope for all forms of negotiations. The letters you throw over the ground and you all hope that we will reply. First of all, I wish you good health!safe and sound.End the time of performing missions on the front line as soon as possible, and go back to reunite with your loved ones. China has often helped Vietnam in the past. Also, you want Vietnam to withdraw from Cambodia, let me tell you, that is a big regime issue, and you Chinese soldiers and I are subordinates, right?As for me in this position, I am carrying out the orders of the superiors just like you.

As for the relationship between us, I hope that we will become more and more united instead of threatening each other, because this is human psychology. Who would want to hurt themselves and their families in this battlefield? It is also because your letter is quite long, so I will answer it, because I know that you need to answer. Although we will meet again, I know that you are also obeying the orders of your superiors. Please think about it carefully and hope that you will be friendly with us. Send peace and friendship to both sides. Goodbye! Dear!Chinese soldiers: We have sent you letters on many occasions at various points in this region with the purpose of negotiating with you various issues of mutual concern to us.In this region, in order to help us understand each other and understand each other today, we send you another letter.People often say this: To understand a thing on the most objective basis, we must hear two bells completely.I hope you will heed our second bell.We believe that it will make its due contribution to the restoration of the friendship between the Vietnamese and Chinese peoples.

First of all, our point of view in resolving various conflicts is: "Dialogue, not confrontation." Because, only through negotiation and direct dialogue can the various issues within the scope of Vietnam and China be resolved. In order to realize this point of view, our Vietnamese side took the initiative and unconditionally stopped shooting for a long time. Although you still shoot at our territory every day, we did not fight back.This is a fact, and it is also our goodwill.Because, our hope is, that this region will soon become a region of peace and friendship.You know this better than anyone else.

There are also issues that pertain to the field of feelings between the soldiers of our two countries.You all realize that we and each of you have a hometown, a family, people who know how to think, who know what is right and what is wrong, don't you, you?Therefore, let me ask: what benefit has this war brought you?If you cannot return to your hometown or return to your hometown with imperfect bodies, what will your relatives think?Therefore, it is a fact that we do not want to have a war. In this way, we hope that your side will have some goodwill actions and no hostile actions.The purpose is to make the relationship between the various soldiers of our two sides more and more friendly.Work hard to restore the regular relations between the peoples of Vietnam and China.

Hope you feel the same. Meet (again). An open letter to Vietnam's frontline officers and soldiers All officers and soldiers on the front line in Vietnam: China and Vietnam have always been friendly neighbors.In the past, when Vietnam was invaded by foreign powers, the Chinese people saved money, provided tens of billions of dollars in support to Vietnam, and sent the Chinese People's Liberation Army to fight side by side with you.We were proud of our comrades who died on Vietnamese soil.However, shortly after the Vietnamese authorities won the victory in their own country, they broke their promises and aimed their guns at China.Not only did they send troops to invade Cambodia, but they also wantonly expelled overseas Chinese, causing bloodshed on the Sino-Vietnamese border.The Chinese people have always been magnanimous to others, and patiently explained the behavior of the Vietnamese authorities to repay kindness and revenge.Not only did the Vietnamese authorities not listen, but they regarded the Chinese people as weak and deceitful. Where is their conscience?The patience of the Chinese people is limited, and our powerful People's Liberation Army went to the Sino-Vietnamese border to fight back in self-defense, it was completely forced.The Vietnamese authorities didn't want the people's lives at all, so they recruited soldiers everywhere and sent them to the front line.Please think about how painful your parents lost their sons in their later years; your wives lost their husbands and were ravaged by hooligans; your children lost their fathers and cannot go to school.Are they crying, looking forward to your return?You shed blood, shed tears, were beaten and scolded on the front line, and the ones you beat were your friends. Are you worth it?The Chinese people have always treated captives leniently. We will take care of those who voluntarily surrender.Your fellow sufferers Ruan Wenxiu and Wu Shaoqing have turned to the light. They are now working in Kunming, living a happy life, and are planning to settle down here.Where are you going, please think deeply!

The Chinese people welcome you! The Chinese People's Liberation Army welcomes you!
