Grade 5 History Exercise Solution: Lesson 20 - Ben Tre Uprising
Question 1 on page 44 of Grade 5 History Exercise Book:
When thinking of the fervor of the 'Đồng Khởi' movement, what historical event does it evoke, particularly the one in autumn of 1945?
* Solution:
The 'Đồng Khởi' movement saw massive participation from the populace (by 1960, 10 million people were involved). They employed rudimentary weapons like sticks and machetes... This movement resembled the August Revolution of 1945, not only in its political struggle but also in its armed resistance, forcing the enemy into a passive and confused position. The revolutionary fervor within the 'Đồng Khởi' movement was intense and determined. If the August Revolution marked Vietnam's independence and the birth of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, then the 'Đồng Khởi' movement also held significant importance, representing a turning point in Vietnam's revolution from a defensive to an offensive stance.
Question 3 on page 45 of History Workbook 5
Drawing from the textbook, write a passage about the rising momentum of the people in Mỏ Cày district, Bến Tre province, in their struggle against the US - Diem regime.
* Solution:
The 1960 Đồng Khởi uprising stands as a remarkable feat for Bến Tre. It was the first province where the Đồng Khởi movement took root. In just one week, 22 communes in Bến Tre were completely liberated, while 29 others neutralized the enemy, besieging their posts and liberating numerous hamlets. The flame of Đồng Khởi in Bến Tre during the resistance against the US will forever shine brightly and resonate through generations, a source of pride for the people of Bến Tre. Simultaneously, it etches itself into the annals of Vietnam's revolutionary history as a monumental event, contributing to the Đồng Khởi movement's indelible mark in the golden pages of Vietnam's anti-foreign invasion saga.
