The French army fired up to 16,000 cannonballs within a day, turning the Ba Dinh base into a sea of fire. The Ba Dinh insurgent army fought for 32 days and nights against an enemy 12 times larger, equipped with modern and advanced weapons. In this extremely fierce battle, the insurgents showed bravery and cunning, but because of the enemy's strong firepower, the Ba Dinh insurgents suffered many casualties. To avoid being completely destroyed, the Ba Dinh insurgents opened a bloody road through the dense siege of the French army and withdrew to the Ma Cao base. On the morning of January 21, 1887, the French army captured Ba Dinh. After that, the French army completely destroyed all three villages of the Ba Dinh base, continued to send troops to pursue the insurgents in Ma Cao, and then destroyed this post on February 2, 1887.

Pham Banh, Ha Van Mao, Le Toai committed suicide... Hoang Bat Dat was later captured and beheaded by the French because of his indomitable spirit and not surrendering to the enemy. Dinh Cong Trang fled to Nghe An. The French army offered a very high reward on his head. In October 1887, because of greed for reward money, the chief of Chinh An village secretly informed the French army to arrest and kill Dinh Cong Trang. The Ba Dinh uprising and Ba Dinh leaders are highly appreciated by history.

During the escalating war against the North of our country, the US Air Force focused on raiding Ham Rong Bridge to cut off important traffic arteries and prevent support from the Northern rear to the major battlefield in the South. The destruction of Ham Rong was chosen by the White House and the Pentagon as the most important goal in the first war of sabotage in the North. With a plot to cut off North-South support, isolate Ham Rong and focus on completely defeating Ham Rong, at 8:45 a.m. on April 3, 1965, the first 16 American planes bombed the area.

That was February 8, 1885, At Dau Tet. Afterwards, Hoc Mon District Palace was rebuilt with a blue stone foundation, brick walls, and a defense system from the upper floors to the fence. The architecture is similar to the Military Fort, so the locals call it Hoc Mon Fort. Tran took over from Tran Tu Ca as Governor of Ngon district, moving to Tra District and then Tho District. This was a long period of time when the people of the Hoc Mon region suffered from many cruel and despicable scenes from the French colonialists and their oligarchic henchmen mentioned above. With the indomitable tradition of Hoc Mon people. On June 4, 1930, around 6 a.m. in front of the District Palace, hundreds of Hoc Mon people protested demanding "abolition of poll tax, reduction of license and market taxes, and granting land to poor farmers." Tra District invited the leaders into the Palace to negotiate, but they cunningly arrested them, including Mr. Le Van Uoi (Secretary of Tan Thoi Nhi Commune), who was the leader of the protest. People were undaunted and fiercely demanded that Tea District release those detained. The protest group became more and more crowded, the fighting spirit spread somewhat, causing Tra District to give in. On the one hand, they released the detained people, on the other hand, they called the officials in Saigon for help. 2 hours later, the struggle was led by two men, Blachole and Nobbot, who opened fire on the protest group, causing many casualties. But the most impressive historical event at Hoc Mon District Palace was the Southern Uprising on November 23, 1940. Hoc Mon Fort is very solid, built of green stone like a fortress, about 15 meters high, has a gun emplacement and a defense system with battlements guarded by a platoon of green soldiers. On November 22, 1940, France reinforced one more platoon to deal with the situation. On the afternoon of November 22, 1940, Mr. Do Van Coi's army broke into the town, disguised as civilians, ambushed behind the Station waiting for orders to rob the Station.

Immediately this army was ordered to pull back to Hoc Mon. The Long Tuy Thuong army was commanded by Mr. Bui Van Hoat. The army of General Long Tuy Trung was commanded by Mr. Do Van Day and Le Binh Dang. At around 24:00 on the night of November 22, 1940, the sound of artillery fire had not yet been heard in Saigon. After consulting, the army commanders united to attack the enemy's post. Immediately the troops headed straight to Fort Hoc Mon, where District Chief Bui Ngoc Tho resided. Two insurgents named Nghe and Kinh volunteered to enter the front gate and sacrificed their lives. Insurgents from all directions rushed into the Fort like water bursting its banks. Faced with the power of the insurgents and the masses, the soldiers in the Station no longer had the spirit to resist and fled in disarray. The insurgents completely occupied the inside of the station, but upstairs, the enemy still stubbornly used guns to shoot sporadically, at the same time calling Saigon and Thu Dau Mot for emergency help. Because he was eager to capture the name of Tho District, comrade Do Van Day climbed up to the upper floor of the Station by clinging to the gutter. Halfway up, he was hit by bullets, the comrade fell and died later. The battle was at a standstill when enemy reinforcements arrived. Unable to hold out, the insurgents withdrew from the town, dispersed to the villages, the armed forces withdrew to Ben Do hamlet (Tan Phu Trung) and then moved to My Hanh hamlet (Duc Hoa).
