I don't want to talk too much about history on this thread. This very likely to ignite another mini scale China-Vietnam war on PDF, which I feel very tired of.
There are about 1,500 Chinese soldiers sacrificed in Vietnam during the VN wars fighting against France and US. Besides roads, they also help Vietnam people and army to build fortifications, airports, ports, communication lines, oil pipelines, etc. Many of them belong to AA artillery troop (China sent 63 regiments of AA gun troops to assist Vietnam), and they were killed by the US planes; some of them come to Vietnam to help Vietnam sweep the sea mines in the key harbors, and killed by the mines.
They were dead at their best ages, for the friendship between the two countries! They should NEVER be blamed for anything happened after their death. I believe they deserve the full respect from the Vietnam people, no matter you like, or dislike the diplomatic relationship between us today.
Chinese ambassador to sweep the tombs of the Chinese soldiers, with the accompany of the Vietnam officials.
