At the same time, throughout its long history, Thanh Hoa has played a great role as a rear base for the frontline in the resistance wars to protect the Fatherland. That was the 9-year long resistance war against French colonialism, Thanh Hoa contributed human and material resources to create the Dien Bien Phu Victory "famous in five continents, shaking the world". And 20 years later was the liberation of the South, the reunification of the country.

To have peace and a strong country like today, many Thanh Hoa people have fought bravely, sacrificed their blood and bones and will forever remain on the battlefields. From the early days of the national resistance war against French colonialism, the army and people of Thanh Hoa have shown a passionate patriotism, with the will: "Rather sacrifice everything than lose the country, never become slaves".

During the years of resistance, the ethnic people of Thanh Hoa province protected and sheltered cadres, central agencies, and people of localities occupied by the enemy, evacuated, and carried out "scorched earth resistance". On the campaign trails, many heroes and martyrs Tran Duc, Le Cong Khai, Truong Cong Man, To Vinh Dien... and many frontline laborers and youth volunteers of Thanh Hoa province fell to make the great Dien Bien Phu victory. The contributions and sacrifices of the people of Thanh in the Dien Bien Phu Campaign were affirmed by President Ho Chi Minh: "Now, wherever the Vietnamese language goes, the Dien Bien Phu language goes there. Wherever the Dien Bien Phu language goes, the Thanh Hoa people also have a part of the honor...".
The resistance war against French colonialism was victorious, but the people of the North and South still lived in a state of separation. Implementing the policies and guidelines of the Party Central Committee, the people of the whole country simultaneously carried out two strategic revolutionary tasks: building socialism in the North and fighting to liberate the South and unify the country. With its geographical position as a bridge between the North and the Central, Thanh Hoa became an important traffic artery of the North. Together with the army and people of the whole country, the army and people of Thanh Hoa entered another battle - the battle against American imperialism.
Responding to President Ho Chi Minh's call: "Each person works as hard as two for the beloved South", the great rear area of Thanh Hoa enthusiastically competed in production and supplied goods to the southern battlefield. The movements "Youth three ready", "Women three responsibilities", "Singing voice over the sound of bombs" spread throughout the localities in the province, creating a fiery, heroic atmosphere from the rear to the front line. During those years of arduous fighting, on all battlefields, there were great contributions and brave sacrifices of the children of Thanh. Not only playing the role of a great rear area for the front line, Thanh Hoa was also a solid fire line protecting the northern sky during the "Northern Destruction War" of the US Air Force. A typical example is the battle to protect Ham Rong Bridge in the days of April 1965. Also in those years, many generations of Thanh Hoa youth set out to respond to the sacred call of the Fatherland, with the will and determination to "Split Truong Son to save the country" so that the country could be united, and the North and South could be reunited.
At the program, delegates and people also watched video clips and television reports about Thanh Hoa province in the process of carrying out the great rear mission for the front line, with the spirit of "all for victory", "all for the front line".
The special art program “The rear and the front” aims to review the glorious revolutionary tradition of the nation; express feelings and infinite gratitude to the heroic martyrs and previous generations who fought bravely, sacrificed, and devoted part of their blood and bones to the Fatherland, for the cause of national liberation and national reunification. At the same time, educate the tradition of patriotism, encourage and motivate cadres, party members and all classes of people to constantly compete in labor production, determined to build the homeland and country to become increasingly rich, civilized and modern.
