 Operation Lorraine : Salan Strikes At Giap's Supply Lines
General Raoul Salan took over from the ailing De Lattre in January 1952, and set about extricating his forces from the Hoa Binh area.
Salan had regarded the Nghia Lo attacks as a diversion (expecting a VM attack on the Delta once he had committed reserves).
To carry out this audacious plan (which was, after all, a serious gamble), Salan decided to strike along the line of the Clear River and RC2, and assembled a force of 30,000 troops (the largest French concentration yet seen in Indochina) to do so.

La toute puissance des militaires sur les civils est affirmée avec force : sur ordre de Salan les militaires peuvent garder pendant un mois, dans des centres de triage et de transit, pourvus de centres d’interrogatoires, ceux qu’ils ont appréhendés.
Privé de charisme, homme d’une envergure politique et intellectuelle plutôt moyenne, hésitant lorsqu’il fallait prendre de graves décisions, Raoul Salan a cependant su mettre en œuvre la torture, participer à un coup d’état et couvrir, au nom du rêve de l’Algérie française, le soulèvement de l’OAS.

 French Indochina: Opium Espionage and "Operation X"
The French commanders struck poses of almost fictional proportions: General de Lattre, the gentleman warrior; Gen. Raoul Salan, the hardened Indochina hand; Maj. Roger Trinquier, the cold-blooded, scientific tactician; and Capt. Antoine Savani, the Corsican Machiavelli.
The Viet Minh commanders were shadowy figures, rarely emerging into public view, and when they did, attributing their successes to the correctness of the party line or the courage of the rank and file.
During its peak years from 1951 to 1954, Operation X was sanctioned on the highest levels by Colonel Belleux for SDECE and Gen. Raoul Salan for the Expeditionary Corps.

Curiously, in his dense but highly readable biography of Giap, John Colvin does not mention de Linarcs, although he does mention de Lattre's successor as commander-in-chief, General Raoul Salan, whose first concern was to evacuate various French-held strongpoints, which de Lattre would doubtless have defended.
Salan's place in history was not improved when, in 1960, he led a failed coup to overthrow Charles de Gaulle.
