Far to the north, a paratroop force of 5000 was pulling back from the wrecked stronghold of Lang-son on the doorstep of China. Four naval commando units hit Quang Ngai in a lightning raid. They were supported by American-made B-26 bombers and Bearcat fighters. "Mission accomplished" destruction of the supply dumps was the word radioed to the French high command.

Reports from the expedition said 52 Vietminh Communist defenders of the coastal base were killed in sharp fighting, and 11 were captured. French casualties were listed as seven wounded.

Vietminh soldiers brought under fire the rear guard of the parachute force pulling back from Langson in the north. Advance headquarters at Tien-yen ordered all available fighter-bombers into the air to smash the attempted attack with flaming napalm and machine gun strafing.
