Trái Tim Trong Ý Nghĩ

On the evening of December 21, 1946, the Bach Mai radio resumed its operations somewhere in the province of Ha Dong after a day of silence. One of its broadcasts was Ho Chi Minh’s appeal to the Viets for a war of resistance. He reportedly said: The gang of French colonialists is aiming to reconquer our country. The hour is grave. Let us stand up and unify ourselves, regardless of ideologies, ethnicities [or] religions. You should fight by all means at your disposal. You have to fight with your guns, your pickaxes, your shovels [or] your sticks. You have to save the independence and territorial integrity of our country. The final victory will be ours. Long live independent and indivisible Viet Nam. Long live democracy.
