Prompt: Based on excerpts from the play, retell the story of Yết Kiêu
In those days, the formidable Yuan invaders swept across our land of Dai Viet. In a certain village, there lived a young man named Yat Kieu, whose profession was fishing, renowned for his swimming and diving skills. He pleaded with his father to join the army to defend against the invaders. His father, saddened, said: 'Your mother passed early, and I am now crippled, unable to do much...
Yat Kieu was deeply pained to hear his father's words. He choked back tears and said: 'Father, but when the country falls, so does our home. I cannot sit idly by while the enemy ravages our land. I will ask the villagers to look after you and take care of you, father.'
1. Retelling the story of Yat Kieu based on the excerpt, model number 1:
Yat Kieu resolved to join the fight against the invaders. Despite his father's reservations, he couldn't bear to watch his homeland suffer. With determination, he prepared to leave, entrusting his father to the care of the village.
His father quickly said: 'I understand! Driving away the enemy is crucial. Go, my son! Don't worry about me!'
After receiving his father's consent, Yat Kieu traveled to the capital city Thang Long to meet King Tran. The king was very pleased with Yat Kieu's determination to fight the enemy and allowed him to choose his own weapon. When Yat Kieu requested only an iron spear, the king was surprised and didn't understand why he wanted a spear. Yat Kieu explained that he would use the spear to pierce through the enemy's warships because he could dive underwater for hours.
When the king asked how Yat Kieu acquired such exceptional diving skills, he humbly replied: 'Your Majesty! It is thanks to my ancestor who taught my father, and my father passed it down to me. Out of hatred for foreign invaders and to follow the example of our ancestors, my ancestor trained tirelessly to teach his descendants.'
With such a long-standing tradition of defending the country against invaders, which aggressor could escape our people's relentless attacks?

In a fishing village, there lived a man named Yett Kieu who worked as a skilled fisherman. Yett Kieu possessed extraordinary strength, unmatched by anyone around. What set him apart was his incredible ability to stay underwater for six to seven days while catching fish. Witnessing the atrocities committed by the enemy, Yett Kieu harbored deep resentment towards them. He decided to journey to the capital city, Thang Long, to seek an audience with King Tran Nhan Tong, requesting permission to fight against the invaders. Delighted, the king granted his request, asking Yett Kieu to choose a weapon. Surprisingly, Yett Kieu requested only a steel spear. When questioned by the king, Yett Kieu respectfully attributed his skills to his father, whom he revered as a deity. The king, intrigued, inquired further about his source of inspiration. Yett Kieu explained that his father learned from the ancient masters, driven by his hatred for the enemy and the desire to emulate the heroes of old.
While Yett Kieu was at the royal court, his father back home reminisced about their last conversation before Yett Kieu embarked on his journey. Yett Kieu had declared, 'With our land lost and homes destroyed, I cannot sit idly by as our people suffer at the hands of the invaders. While I'm away, Father, please take care, and when the enemy is vanquished, I shall return.' Reassuring his son, the father replied, 'Go forth and fight, my son.
