In terms of military operations, the Viet Cong remained hidden (under the foliage) during the day and conducted operations during the night.

They used guerrilla warfare tactics, and they used the tunnels (that were dug in the late 1940s) underneath cities and jungles to their advantage (i.e., Cu Chi Tunnels).
