Listen, you talk about satellite and targeting. I told you, you can do it with Recon teams. Then you say they are supermen, then told you it's very easy to do so by looking at the Koreas special ops teams...then you saying killing civilian. Please dont turn my answer up side down and adding sentence I didn't (like killing civilians). Im sharing my opinions and knowledge with you. When it's good just say nothing instead of talking no sense
I don't need to tell them, VPA are among the best in term of sabotage and special ops, they have decades of combat experience and have larges units already. Dac Cong was used to go inside US bases to kill and sabotage, Go inside Thailand to kill and monitor Khmer Rouge in the 1980-90s and inside China in 1979 war for sabotage and attacking rear units. It's just you who so focusing in hightech war with aegis, missiles, satellite, ect. and neglect the mother of all arms: Infantry
I start to feel angry, because you obviously don't think carefully before you send out your posts. Fine, I promise to stay polite. And I will not break my promise.
Now let me answer your questions.
Superman unit: PLA will show an immediate response after they sense the presence of your special units in China. You should not expect PLA would be blind to your soldiers till the last day of the war. PLA may not know the accurate positions of your men initially, but this will not intervene them to send army, armed police or militiaman for the search and hunts. Your well trained unit could get the fortunate to be escaped from the hunts once or twice, but if they be escaped from the troops, from the dogs, from the helicopters, from the UAVs again and again and again, could you think of any reason other than superman?
Killing civilians: we are talking about a potential case in Yunnan or Guangxi. Both with big population size that close to Vietnam's. For your active units in China, there is NO CHANCE that they never face any civilians during their operations. Let's assume they pass by a small village and be seen by s small kid. The kid then told parents about it. Now the Chinese civilians see some soldiers with guns, looks tired and very dirty, some of them even have blood/wounds on head, hands or legs. What's more important is that they cannot speak Chinese, or just speak very basic Chinese but in an strange tone. Do you expect these Chinese people be ignorant to your soldiers? Or you think the Chinese would believe this is nothing but Halloween? No! They will call the army immediately after your soldiers leave. For your special unit, there is nothing more dangerous than losing the anonymity. If you are the chief of such a VN unit that has been watched by civilians, and you are fully aware of the danger that these Chinese will call PLA after you leave, which will lead a heavy hunt by troops, dogs, helicopters and UAVs to you. For safety of you own and your people, do you have any other choice other than killing all the innocent people?? Answer me!
Let me be clear to you: Once Vietnam decides to send its special units to penetrate to China deep, killing innocent people will become an inevitable outcome. And the more criminals your boys do in China, the harder the revenge we will make.
North and South Korea: the reasons that special unit from the north is great threat to south is that:
A) they speak the SAME language!!!
B) Seoul is just 40km far to the north/south border line. North could even dig multiple tunnels till the city center of Seoul, they have sufficient time for this! The special units from DPRK could even penetrate to Seoul directly via the tunnels and launch a direct attack on the presidential site of the South!
But for the China vs. Vietnam case we talking about, do the two countries speak the same language?? Is Beijing close to the China/Vietnam border line? Even Kunming is 250km far away from the border!! You really expect your superman to suddenly show up at the Tian An Men Square and make a sudden attack on Xi's bed room?
Learning military knowledge from books and internet: there is nothing wrong for me to learn knowledge from books and internet. At least I show a right attitude for learning new knowledge and digest the knowledge with my own thinking! Definitely much better than an old fossil that fully immersed in the old glory time and could not get out of the illusion! This guy even believes if a tactic could be successful once, then it must be successful forever. I guess maybe he even believes knight could still dominate the battlefield today! And battleship is still ruler of the sea! This guy also believes if a tactic is fitted with country A, then it must also be fitted with B. He even doesn't want to spend time to think of the HUGE difference between country A and country B. Or maybe a careful thinking is too complicated to his small brain.
