With the plot to take over Lao Cai, the Northern invaders often sent troops to attack the border areas, but those small invasions were fiercely resisted by the army and people in the border areas, driving them back to the country. But their intention to invade still did not stop. They sent a large army led by enemy general Ta Tu Vang Pet to invade the country. Famous general Hoang Bay once again personally sent troops to fight the enemy. However, because the enemy discovered our military secrets, on the other hand, the enemy army was large, the battle was uneven between our army and the invaders, so he and his generals heroically sacrificed their lives, and his body floated down the river. Hong reached Bao Ha commune and washed ashore. People in the area mourned him with sadness, brought his body to bury him and built a temple for people to offer incense all year round to commemorate his and his generals' contributions in fighting the enemy and defending the country.
