There is gold, but the old man and his son still work hard to make a living by the Trang Co river. Grateful, the people here built a temple to worship two stones, the Mountain God and the Water God, so that boats and ships can travel safely. Ms. Tham, the daughter of an old fisherman, was gentle and beautiful, and had a reputation. Boys from both the upper and lower villages dreamed of marrying her. When she was young, she was taken by God's power to be his wife. She lived in a golden situation but was humiliated in every way, especially when the Black Flag invaders came to harass them, and the Lord Muong not only did not fight the invaders but also became their henchman. She tried every way to escape from the Muong Lord's house and gathered poor people to rise up to fight the enemy. The Muong Lord was angry and wanted to gain merit, so he led the enemy to fight. The female general stubbornly fought back. At the Trang Co river, a fierce battle took place, blood flowed into rivers, but Co Tham's soldiers remained undeterred. Unfortunately, the female general was hit by a poisoned arrow and died. The angry soldiers decided to fight to avenge her.

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).
