At around 10:00 a.m. on March 30, 1963, the US embassy on Ham Nghi Street was hit with explosives by the F21 Commando team, collapsing three floors: 1, 2, 3, so the US decided to rebuild it.

According to the design, the building is surrounded by 7,800 Taredo stones that can withstand mines and artillery shells. The main door is equipped with thick steel, the other doors are blocked by a special thick bulletproof layer. All doors use automatic systems, including iron doors blocking the way to the upper floors. Inside the building there are 140 rooms with 200 staff serving day and night. In addition, next to the building is also built an additional row of houses called the "Norodom" area exclusively for C.I.A. employees. When inaugurated, the building had only 3 floors.

Another equally humiliating event for the US Embassy was the chaotic escape that occurred on April 29 and 30, 1975 by the US and its accomplices. Faced with the rapid attack of the Vietnamese army and people in the historic Ho Chi Minh campaign, over 1,000 Americans and more than 5,000 pro-American Vietnamese jostled, pushed, and kicked each other to compete for a place on the terrace of the building. building to be rescued by helicopter. This relic was granted a certificate of recognition by the Ministry of Culture on June 25, 1976.

Le Chan set foot in the land of Hai An, Hai Phong, recruited soldiers to join them in farming, building a hamlet named An Bien site (today's inner city). Great ambition did not stop there. Disgruntled over the crimes committed by the enemy, causing the people's lives to be miserable and miserable, Le Chan silently prepared his forces, waiting for the day of the uprising. She went to the present-day Elephant Mountain area, gathered soldiers, actively practiced, stored food and herbs, and took advantage of the rugged terrain of the mountains and forests to hide from the enemy. Afterwards, receiving news of Hai Ba Trung's uprising, from the mountains and forests of An Lao, Le Chan contacted and officially brought his army to join the uprising.
