There was no love lost between China and N. Vietnam in fact they had their own little war in 1976 I think ..

Yes, but during the Vietnam War, China and Russia both supported Nth Vietnam.
There is NO way the communists would have deserted a comrade in a clash with the "filthy capitalist warmongers", and their "running dogs" such as Australia.
That is what my communist brother and wife would have said, and did in fact if my failing memory is any guide! The later clash with Nth Vietnam in the 1970s just indicated how shallow the PLA really was at that time. The PLA has had NIL miliary experience and 'on the job' training since then.I know one door gunner willing and able to join the fight at a minutes notice. We could call him a "minuteman".
