50 years ago, with the revolutionary offensive spirit of the people and soldiers of the whole country, the army and people of Kon Tum province in general and Kon Plong district in particular achieved a resounding victory on the battlefields of Mang Den and Mang Buk.
To ensure secret operations for revolutionary cadres, at the end of 1956, Kon Tum Provincial Party Committee re-divided the districts and assigned new code names for convenient command.
Kon Plong district is divided into two code names H16 and H29, this is the resistance base of Kon Tum province during the resistance war against the US and the puppet regime.
On October 3, 1974, armed forces of H29 and H16 districts, along with the main force of Regiment 28 (Division 10) and some technical troops opened fire to attack and destroy the Mang Den stronghold cluster.
After 9 days of continuous fighting, with determination to fight and win, on October 12, 1974, the liberation army crushed all enemy resistance, occupied and completely controlled Mang Den stronghold.
