Even though her defense lawyers argued that she was under 18 years old, the French colonialists still stubbornly imposed the death penalty. Before being sentenced, she was exiled to Chi Hoa, Ba Ria and Con Dao prisons. Because the French army did not dare to publicly execute the sentence against her, they secretly murdered her. The story is still told that, when the group of executioners told her to kneel, she shouted back at them with a legendary sentence, I only know how to stand, not how to kneel. She was executed by firing squad in 1952 in Con Dao when she was under 18 years old. About 100 meters away is the monument park and the temple of hero Vo Thi Sau.

ARTILLERY BATTLE AND LARGE MOUNTAIN TOP TUNNEL

The mine bunker on Nui Lon (in Ward 5, Vung Tau City today) was built by the Japanese fascists in 1944. This was the place to store naval weapons of the Japanese army. However, with a courageous fighting spirit, our troops repeatedly broke into mine mines and took enemy weapons to make weapons to fight the enemy. In July 1941, Japan forced France to sign the "Commitment to the Common Defense of Indochina" treaty with Japan. With this treaty, Japan commanded France completely militarily. In October 1941, Japan landed in Vung Tau, quickly occupying an important position on Big Mountain, located at the Vung Tau - Can Gio seaport. From 1941-1945, the Japanese fascist army built many bunkers, underground bunkers, ammunition bunkers, and mines halfway up Big Mountain along the coast, now in Ward 5, Vung Tau City. Although the mine bunker is simply a warehouse used to store Japanese military weapons, it is no less elaborate in its construction. The mine bunker was built in 1944, and was completed after 4 months. The tunnel was built under a discreet mountain valley, built in an arch shape, inside the tunnel is a reinforced concrete wall 1m thick and 2.7m high. The front of the tunnel door is made of stone, 7m high and 20m long. The tunnels are arranged interconnected in a U-shape. The tunnel mainly stores mines and mines for coastal defense, creating an underwater battlefield blocking the Vung Tau-Can Gio estuary. At the end of World War II, Japan surrendered to the Allies, so they removed the mines from the sea, brought them up the mountain, put them in storage bunkers, and planted explosives outside. Japan's defeat on the battlefield created favorable conditions for the Vietnamese revolution to gradually win. During the long and arduous years of resistance against the Japanese and French, Vung Tau's army and people together with the army and people of Bien Hoa and Ba Ria not only defeated the enemy's long raids into war zone D and Sac forest but He also penetrated deep into the enemy's rear and won many glorious battles. During the war, the successful raids on the Nui Lon mine bunker were victories of Vung Tau's army and people. From the Ba Trao area (Nua mountain - Long Son island commune), our armed forces and security forces, relying on the people, have repeatedly broken into ammunition magazines and mine mines on Lon mountain, seizing military equipment and weapons. of the enemy to equip our troops. The mine-taking became a campaign involving hundreds of people, taking place at night and in great secrecy. Our forces are divided into groups: signaling, guarding, removing grenades, transporting mines, raising troops... According to the plan, when there was a signal of smoke and fire, the boats of our army and people in Ba Trao slowly arrived at Ben Da - Vung Tau port to receive and transport weapons taken from the enemy from the mine bunker. The guard group was divided into 2 groups to guard from the top of Ben Da slope and near the area where the Guanyin Buddha statue is now. The grenade removal team will join the special forces, guerrillas, and suicide soldiers of Thang Nhi into the mine bunker, one person will shine the light, the other person will remove the grenade, open the door, and when finished, put the grenade back as before. The group carrying the mines out worked together to climb up the mountainside in the dark night, carry the mines down the mountain, and transfer them straight to the boat and return to safety. The army support team consisted of women and sisters who transported food and lamp oil to everyone participating in the raids. At the end of June 1947, after the enemy army (the French army recaptured for the second time) withdrew from Ben Dinh post, our army and people's raids on mine bunkers became easier. Our forces transported an average of 2 mines out of the bunker at a time, each weighing more than 100kg. During the period from 1945 to 1954, our army secretly took about 60 mines to make bombs and mines as weapons to destroy the enemy. On August 4, 1992, Nui Lon mine bunker was ranked as a National Historical Monument. Source: Ba Ria - Vung Tau electronic newspaper.

This is a small military structure, divided into two floors, separated by a wooden floor, with battlements facing four directions. During the war, the terrain of Vung Tau (O Cap) was militarily important, so the occupying French army began building a port and airport as soon as they arrived in Vung Tau. At that time, in this land surrounded by the sea, fresh water was an extremely valuable resource, so the French built a water supply system (drilled wells, water filtration plants...) right near the intersection. from Vung Tau City Water Well today. To protect the airport, port and water supply system for the whole Vung Tau, the French army set up a military station right next to the water plant, so it was called the Water Plant Station.

Historical revolutionary relic house number 86 - Phan Chu Trinh

The National Relic of House 86 Phan Chu Trinh (currently No. 5 Phan Chu Trinh, Ward 2, Vung Tau City) was once the home of French official Pierre Chappus located on Phan Chu Trinh Street, at the foot of Nho Mountain. The house was built in the old French architectural style of the early 20th century. During the war, this house used to be a place to hide revolutionary activists. Mr. Pierre Chappus has a French father and a Vietnamese mother. He is a private official of the French government, owner of the Vung Tau Lighthouse Department. The house of Mr. Pierre Chappus at that time was built with blue stone walls and a tiled roof, located on a plot of land about 100 meters in front of Phan Chu Trinh street and 80 meters deep. Around the house there are many fruit trees such as coconut, mango, custard apple, star apple, guava, lemon... Behind the house there is a very large lotus pond and a lychee tree the size of two people.

At that time, Mr. Pierre Chappus's family always kept 5-7 dogs, each with a name. Whenever they heard a stranger coming, the dogs barked to alert the front door, and the officers immediately crept into the garden. The fruit tree exits through the back door. In the cases where acquaintances (officers) entered the gate and the dogs barked, he just had to call each dog's name and they would lie still and not bark. During the anti-American period, the house at 86 Phan Chu Trinh was agreed by Mr. Pierre Chappus for the revolution to be used as the Ba Ria - Long Khanh Provincial Party Committee Office, showing his sympathy for the Vietnamese revolution. He emotionally told the cadres: "You guys just use my house to work. In case I am captured by the enemy and die, it will be an honor for me to die for the Vietnamese revolution."

Standing members of the Office include comrade Trinh Phong Dan and comrade Ho Si Hanh. At this time, Mr. Pierre Chappus's family kept 10 dogs, this was an important "force" that very effectively guarded the house, protecting the safety of revolutionary cadres working secretly. By the end of 1958, the Ba Ria - Long Khanh Provincial Party Committee Office had to move to another place to ensure secrecy, but the house at 86 Phan Chu Trinh was still a base for officials to come and get help, mobilize money and support. material for revolution. Mr. Pierre Chappus died in 1959 at his house at 86 Phan Chu Trinh, at the age of 81.
