The North Vietnamese and Vietcong in general had a very cunning war strategy, they wanted to avoid defeat until the American gave up - B. They achieved this through guerilla warfare which tired out the US soldiers and created a huge backlash against the war in the US.

The correct answer is B) the North Vietnamese and Vietcong's war strategy was to avoid defeat until the Americans gave up.

They were always on the retreat and resorted to guerrilla warfare. They would hide, attack at night, set traps, and other similar tactics until they completely demoralized the American army.
