Battle of the First Indochina War

The Battle of Nghĩa Lộ, also called Ly Thuong Kiet Campaign by Việt Minh, was fought between forces of the French Union and Việt Minh during the First Indochina War. Both general Giap and de Lattre waited eagerly for the battle due to the postponement that occurred when Giap's attack along the Day River were driven back in June 1951.
