It will be reannexed as China former Province of Annam. Don't give China an excuse.

As I says, Hanoi leadership are not that stupid like the Khmer Krom from the South.
One of the military objectives of the 1979 invasion was to demonstrate to Vietnamese that their protector and strategic partner won't show up. It didn't.
To lose sight of a forest because of one tree.
No, Vietnam existed as a tribe long before that.
it depends on which source you are reading. This will depends on what you believe.
I have read and research this conflict quite well in the past with even reports from Asahi Simbun discounting Vietnamese claims as nonsense then.
The Japanese reporters was in the same location which the Vietnam claimed to have killed ovet a thousand soldiers of their enemies.
According to him, it was so quiet even one can hear the birds chirps. How did Vietnamese killed a thousand Chinese soldiers. Were they using bow and arrows?
I can still clearly remember back in days of NAM, Vietnamese claimed that they shot down 10,000 US warplanes including B-52 and killed well over a million American GI.
I will just named a couple of things for you to ponder about regarding the 1979 Sino-Vietnamese war.
1. Vietnam claimed that they killed thousands of PLA troops practically every day.
That immediately defied logic as how can retreating Vietnamese army count the enemy deads.
2. Before the war got started China already released an itinerary of their short offensive and their withdrawal was as scheduled.
They occupied the mountainous region they captured for one month, why didn't Vietnam put up any resistance.
3. China used the phrase. "Utilizing the butcher knife to slaughter a chicken (Vietnam)."
Example. The city of Langson was flattened inch by inch. How could Vietnamese survived such intense bombardment?
After that PLA just took a stroll in the landscape of Langson and took pictures like Japanese tourists. These ate all documented.
4. The flag of the elite Vietnam Flying Tiger is now hanging in the wall of Guangzhou Border Guard garrison. The entire Vietnamese Flying Tiger no longer existed and was annihilated during this war.
5. The mine laying tactics used by the retreating Vietnamese soldiers do not worked as Chinese PLA troops are not Americans. But it did succeeded in staggering and delaying the advancement.
6. China only deployed 80,000 border guards and not hundreds of thousands as alleged by Vietnam. This was confirmed by USA satellite photos.
7. In this particular conflict, neither the Chinese Air Force or Navy was involved but this won't be the case in the next war.
What I see is China retreating after invading Vietnam.
