It's a great honor for Vietnamese women to have Hai Ba Trung kick off the glorious history pages of resisting foreign invasion and winning independence for the homeland. Hai Ba Trung are Trung Trac and Trung Nhi, daughters of Lac general Me Linh in the Hung Kings era, who were greatly educated by their mother about patriotism.
Trung Trac's husband, Thi Sach, was killed by the Han invaders led by Tô Định. To fight against the Han occupation and avenge her husband, Trung Trac and her sister, Trung Nhi, raised the banner of rebellion, gathering peasants nationwide to expel Tô Định and rebuild the ancient kingdom of the Hung Kings. The Hai Ba Trung uprising took place in the early 40s of the 1st century. Trung Trac proclaimed herself queen (called Trung Vuong), and the independent rule lasted for 3 years: Đô Kỳ became the capital of Me Linh Territory, forming a separate royal court of our country. In 42, Han generals invaded our country again.
Hai Ba Trung and female generals like Lê Chân, Thánh Thiên, Thiều Hoa... fiercely fought and won many battles. However, unable to resist the cunning schemes and tactics of the Han, they ultimately chose to sacrifice themselves by drowning in the Hat River. In the Đại Việt sử ký (1272), Lê Văn Hưu wrote: 'Trung Trac, Trung Nhi are women, who just yelled once and the regions of Cửu Chân, Nhật Nam, Hợp Phố, and 60 fortresses in the outskirts all responded. Establishing a kingdom and proclaiming oneself king seemed as easy as turning one's hand...!'
