Gen. Christian De Castries:
[a prisoner stands before him]
Well, now we're getting some place; a Red Chinese from Peiping and a gun from Moscow. The complexion of our war is changing, now that Mao and Malenkov are interested in our little valley.
Gen. Christian De Castries:
[he reads from a paper]
Lieutenant of the Chinese Red Army attached to the Viet Minh seventeenth anti-aircraft. Anti-aircraft - that's something new. Made in China, I presume?
Chinese POW Lieutenant:
Made in Russia.
Gen. Christian De Castries:
Russian? All this Russian generosity, out of goodness of the heart, to free a neighbour, huh?
Chinese POW Lieutenant:
Yes.
Gen. Christian De Castries:
Free a neighbour from any hope of democracy! To turn all Indochina into a Chinese and Russian slave... producing for conquest. It will deceive no one. All Asia will soon learn the truth, will learn your motives.
Chinese POW Lieutenant:
They'll learn no capitalist lies. Not from this fort. In a few days, no one will be alive to tell them. You're completely surrounded so it matters not what I say. General Giap has four divisions, forty thousand men encircling you. He has plenty of ammunition. You'll be wiped out!
