In Chapter 9, the author describes the first logistical campaign of the First Indochina War, which encompassed the struggles of both the French and the Viet Minh to build the combat and support forces needed to carry out their respective strategies. The operations during the period (LEA in 1947 and the battle of Route Coloniale 4 in 1950) are described as foreshadowings of the battles to come.
