The Viet Minh received a lot of aid from the US, if the US don't give that aid, Ho Ci Minh has a lot less to work with.
They actually didn't get much from the US, some medical supplies and a handful of drops, the majority of their gear they got from the Japanese, or from buying it off of KMT officers. Thats how they started their war with the French, thats how they'll keep on going without Chinese aid.
