#1 The Norkies know that a major part of their utility to CHINA is to die so that Chinese don't -IMO this is why Dubya agreed to allude the Iraq situation to TET 1968, where the North Vietnamese took over from the Vietcong after the Cong's forces, ie ability to wage war in South Vietnam, was all but destroyed. Many in the West believed then as now that Hanoi wilfully allowed the Cong to be sacrificed and destroyed in order for Hanoi to exert greater control of the southern war effort. IOW, COMMUNIST WILFULLY RISKED + DESTROYED [LOYAL]COMMUNIST FOR A [PC]COVERT/SHADOW AGENDA. China already views NORTH KOREA = KOREAS as a province(s) of China - it just needs to SSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHH eliminate or remove anti-Beiing elements still-existing within the KORCOMS/NORCOMS NPE in Pyongyang. MIGHTY COMRADELY OF THESE COMRADES IN MUTUAL GLORIOUS SOCIALISM. China pragmatically also needs warm-water ports just as Czarist Russia = USSR = RUSSIA did and does, to support its own national modernization efforts and geopol ambitions. To that end, Commie China will NOT give up North Korea andor TAIWAN, etal. once firmly entrenched locally. ANYTHING ELSE IS JUST FEEL-GOOD FLUFFERY/BLUFFERY.

#2 Not just the West believes that, the number 2 all-time Viet Cong leader that survive the war and later fled to France openly stated that in his book, "Memoirs of a Viet Cong". His contention is that the NVA as epitomize by General Giap did not trust the political reliability of the southern recruits to the VC and expended them as ammo during Tet. That sort of double-dealing is common among communist regimes, Stalin had the Red Army sit on its hands while the Nazis destroyed the Polish Resistance in Warsaw at the end of WWII, even though a good chunk of the Polish Resistance was communist.
