Deo Giang Victory Relic

Deo Giang Victory Relic

Giang Pass is located on National Highway 3, bordering Bach Thong and Ngan Son districts. Here, during the resistance war against the French colonialists, our army and people achieved a resounding victory and entered the heroic history of the nation. This was the largest scale battle compared to other ambush battles against the enemy in the Deo Giang area. From this battle, we learned a lot of experience in battalion-level ambush tactics for ambushing the enemy during the period of resistance against the French colonial invasion. This battle was closely associated with the battle of Phu Thong garrison, which made a great noise, had a strong effect, encouraged and encouraged the armed forces in the early days of the resistance war against the French colonialists, contributing to the whole people. The country defeated all sabotage plots of the French colonialists in the Viet Bac war zone. At 9:00 a.m. on December 12, 1947, at km 187 - 188 Deo Giang - Lang Ngam commune (Ngan Son) there was an enemy motorized convoy consisting of 22 tanks, armored vehicles, trucks, and vehicles. The jeep carrying soldiers fell into the ambush of the 165th Regiment (Capital Regiment). The ambush was a dangerous road, with high mountains on one side and deep abysses on the other. Right from the first round of bullets from our soldiers, an enemy car was destroyed and many enemy soldiers were killed. After a few minutes of using strong firepower to shoot directly at the enemy formation, our soldiers rushed to the street to destroy the enemy. Battle results: Killed on the spot 60 people (including two lieutenants), destroyed and burned 17 motor vehicles, collected 2 million Indochina coins and many military weapons and supplies. From this resounding battle, Deo Giang has become a historical place associated with the glorious victories of our army and people in the Viet Bac counter-attack campaign - Autumn Winter in 1947.
