The Vietcong strategy during the Vietnam War centered on guerrilla warfare, utilizing hit-and-run tactics, ambushes, and a deep understanding of the local terrain to undermine American and South Vietnamese forces. They aimed to wear down the enemy's resolve through sustained harassment and to win popular support among the Vietnamese populace. By blending in with civilians and employing psychological tactics, the Vietcong sought to create instability and disrupt American operations, ultimately contributing to the U.S. withdrawal from Vietnam. This strategy effectively capitalized on the strengths of the Vietcong while exploiting the weaknesses of a conventional military force.
