Tomb and church of Admiral Le Truc

The church and grave of Admiral Le Truc are nestled next to the Gianh river, in Thanh Thuy village, Tien Hoa commune (Tuyen Hoa, Quang Binh). Admiral Le Truc was the famous leader of the Can Vuong insurgent army, an example of patriotic loyalty that descendants still talk about today. At the end of the 19th century, Vietnam's feudal society became more and more chaotic, with internal conflicts in Cochinchina and internal jealousy, and French colonialism trying to encroach on Cochinchina. Faced with the power of colonialism with capitalist production methods, the Nguyen feudal court continuously had to sign surrender treaties with France. After the Nguyen feudal court signed treaties to sell the country, all over our country from Tonkin, Central and Cochinchina, the resistance movement against the French emerged strongly, especially when King Ham Nghi issued a decree. In Can Vuong, the uprising spread throughout the provinces, causing confusion and fear among the French colonialists. In Quang Binh, the people's resistance movement emerged loudly, but the most typical was still the insurgent army led by Admiral Le Truc. Le Truc is from Thanh Thuy village, Quang Trach district (now Tien Hoa commune - Tuyen Hoa). He passed the Tao si (Three Giam Doctor of Martial Arts) degree, and was formerly a Hanoi military leader. When enemy general Henry Ryviere defeated Hanoi, Governor Hoang Dieu committed suicide and was dismissed by the court. By the time he received the Can Vuong edict in 1885, uprisings broke out everywhere. Le Truc gathered a number of soldiers and civilians to stand up in the Gianh River region, using Cua Xai in the Thanh Thuy mountain region as a base. Ton That Thuyet gave him the original uniform. From then on, he called on scholars and scholars in the area to follow Ham Nghi against the French. Le Truc's insurgent army grew stronger day by day, its scope of operations became larger, and its reputation spread throughout all areas. Le Truc organized many large and small attacks, raided enemy posts, and captured and killed traitor henchmen. Although the Can Vuong movement failed, patriotic writers and scholars were arrested and killed, but the patriotic spirit, indomitable will and traditional fire always burn brightly in the hearts of the people. the whole country in general and Quang Binh in particular. Around September 28 and 29, 1888, when he heard that King Ham Nghi was arrested and taken to Thuan Bai Fort, Quang Trach, he and a number of other admirals went to pay their respects to the king and surrendered. However, he still refused to accept the new reign name of King Dong Khanh, but only took the reign name of King Ham Nghi. In early 1891, Mr. Le Truc had to reconcile with France to protect the lives of innocent people. The Can Vuong Quang Binh movement ended. Le Truc died in his hometown in June of the year Dinh Meo (1918), in Thanh Thuy village, Tuyen Hoa, Tuyen Hoa, Quang Binh - at the age of 90. Le Truc died in his hometown, but his name is still associated with places such as village names, street names, and street names. His image, merit and unyielding will still live forever in the hearts of the people. In memory of a son who was loyal to the country, filial to the people, devoted and arduous for the sake of his country and country, the people and relatives contributed their contributions and resources to build the church and his tomb in the year 1912. The Tomb Relics and Commodore Le Truc Church were ranked as National Historical and Cultural Monuments on June 21, 1993. Source: Quang Binh Tourism
