What historical event is Nghia Son Linh mountain associated with?

Nghiao Son Linh mountain is associated with the history of fighting against the Northern invaders. When the Tran Dynasty fell, Ho Quy Ly usurped the throne and founded the Ho Dynasty. He introduced many policies that were unpopular with the people, so they were not supported by the people. The Ming Dynasty in the North took advantage of this to disperse, occupy Cao Bang and plunder brutally.

At this time, there were two chiefs, Be Khac Thieu and Nong Dac Thai, and the people stood up to fight the enemy. Nong Dac Thai is good at archery and has a strong army. Be Khac Thieu had a talent for strategy and military leadership, so he was honored as a general. They chose the Nghiao Son Linh mountain range as their base.

Be Khac Thieu had to raze Khau Thuoc mountain to build a house to house troops and train troops. Also use Khau Khieu mountain as spending money to observe.

Be Khac Thieu had many times surrounded Na Lu citadel, Minh army fled to Moc Ma (Cao Bang City). After that, the Ming army surrounded Khau Thuoc citadel and was shot by the bow of Nong Bac Thai. Be Khac Thieu also set up villages to hide food, buffaloes and cows, avoiding the Ming army from plundering.

Minh army increased troops to return to capture Na Lu citadel.  In 1426, the Ming army led troops into Khau Thuoc, intending to destroy this insurgent barracks. But the plan failed. General Trinh Duong of the Ming Dynasty was wounded, the Ming army fled back to the country. Be Khac Thieu claimed to be Chau Muc to govern Cao Bang land, Nong Dac Thai was considered military.
