Công Binh, la Longue Nuit Indochinoise plot

What to do if war leaves your factories without workers? Then you rob young men from your colony, like France did during World War II. At the time of imperialism, a colony was a reservoir not only for raw materials but also for manpower. Of families in former Indochina (now Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia) with three children or more, the eldest or youngest son was forced to work in France. This group of young men, who were shipped to Europe like animals, was called Công Binh.
