C) The North Vietnamese Army included regular soldiers, and the Viet Cong included a mix of regular and irregular soldiers and peasant sympathizers from South Vietnam

Explanation:

The North Vietnamese Army was composed of regular soldiers. It was under the guidance of the communists and it represented the communism in North Vietnam. This army was fighting against South Vietnam and the United States. The Viet Cong was an organization that wasn't controlled by any political party. It had both its regular army, but also guerrilla fighters, and ordinary peasants from South Vietnam. This made the Viet Cong much harder to fight against because it had multiple tactics, people of all sorts on its side, and it was very unpredictable. Eventually, the North Vietnamese Army and the Viet Cong started collaborating, and the Viet Cong joined the communists and fought for the communist ideals.
