Project Blue Sword-B was a military operation by the Peoples liberation army during the Sino-Vietnamese conflicts (1979-1991) to capture several Vietnamese People's Army (VPA) strongholds near Lao Shan. The battle was the first offensive battle of the Lanzhou Military Region's turn against the Vietnamese, suppressing the VPA's firepower and communications with absolute artillery superiority and electronic jamming capabilities, allowing the infantry detachment to complete the assault with far fewer troops than the defending side. The PLA had 207 commandos during the battle and suffered 22 dead and 56 wounded while the VPA had approximately 500 and suffered 304 casualties. The battle was also the first actual combat case in which the People's Liberation Army Electronic Warfare Troops were made public, and since then the People's Liberation Army has begun to pay more attention to the development of electronic warfare units. A film crew led by Wang Hong, a field photographer, followed the assault team throughout the battle, taking photographs and video from so close that Wang Hong himself was shot and wounded. Photographs and videos of the operation were widely circulated and the battle is considered to be the first "People's Liberation Army combat operation to be televised live"
