Starting from here, American aircraft continuously bombarded Yen Chau, but due to good preparation of plans to deal with America's destructive war, Yen Chau entered the war without being surprised. At this time, Ta Vai bridge became a place of fierce fighting between us and the enemy. With the determination to ensure smooth traffic flow in all situations, determined to stay at the traffic center of Ta Vai bridge, the militia and self-defense force and armed force units have always stuck to the road and bridge to ensure traffic is clear. Here, from March to December 1966, we arranged the 14th Battalion of anti-aircraft artillery to protect the Ta Vai bridge, in which Company 3, consisting of two 37mm artillery batteries, was positioned in the area of Ban Tat hill. , adjacent to Tai Vai bridge, Company 2, consisting of four 37mm guns, was arranged in a continuous position to the west of Ta Vai bridge.

Many times having to move the battlefield, the people and the soldiers used forest rope to braid to pull the artillery; used bamboo to make shacks for the soldiers and helped the soldiers dig over 3,000 meters of shelters on the battlefield with the determination to protect the transportation artery for the battlefield. The enemy destroyed bridges and roads, but the spirit of the army and people here was undeterred. Despite the roar of bombs and bullets, they still enthusiastically repaired the roads for vehicles to pass, with the emulation movement "Singing over the sound of bombs" and "Singing over the sound of bombs" and "Singing over the sound of bombs" The enemy broke it, I'll fix it. If the enemy destroys me, let me go." On December 8, 1966, the enemy organized 3 groups of planes to drop bombs on the hill where there was an anti-aircraft artillery battlefield and bombarded the Ta Vai bridge. At this time, 2 bridge spans were hit by bombs and fell into the stream and traffic on Route 6. was cut. Because the bridge was in a dangerous location, the stream was wide, the water was deep, and the enemy fought day and night, so it was very difficult to rebuild the bridge. Faced with that situation, the bridge protection unit decided to build a bypass and underground road to ensure traffic at all costs. The underground tunnel of Ta Vai bridge was built by soldiers and civilians about 1km downstream, but the enemy still discovered it and continued to bombard it. With courageous fighting spirit, the army and militia units have well secured traffic arteries. Promoting the tradition of tenacious fighting and the spirit of solidarity, the people of Ta Vai village with a boiling spirit of hatred for the invaders turned into revolutionary actions in combat and production, making an outstanding contribution to the achievements in defeating the US imperialist plot to expand the war.

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.

Faced with the power of the insurgents and the masses, the soldiers in the Station no longer had the spirit to resist and fled in disarray. The insurgents completely occupied the inside of the station, but upstairs, the enemy still stubbornly used guns to shoot sporadically, at the same time calling Saigon and Thu Dau Mot for emergency help. Because he was eager to capture the name of Tho District, comrade Do Van Day climbed up to the upper floor of the Station by clinging to the gutter. Halfway up, he was hit by bullets, the comrade fell and died later. The battle was at a standstill when enemy reinforcements arrived. Unable to hold out, the insurgents withdrew from the town, dispersed to the villages, the armed forces withdrew to Ben Do hamlet (Tan Phu Trung) and then moved to My Hanh hamlet (Duc Hoa).
