The team learned from experience and praised the comrades for completing the task well, and at the same time disseminated the attack plan the next day.

After hearing the policies of the Viet Minh, some prisoners of war asked to join the revolution and most asked to return home. In the first two battles, the Team used the tactic of "attacking with a disguised raid (raid), which excellently opened the tactical history of the Vietnam People's Army". Training disguise is a way of fighting that uses few guns and bullets, has low casualties but is highly effective in combat. In the first two battles, in addition to destroying and capturing all enemy soldiers in the station, the Team also captured many weapons and military equipment.
