SUMMARY
The short story “Tết kháng chiến đầu tiên” is the sixth out of ten stories in the book Truyện kể về Bác Hồ - Những chặng đường trường kỳ kháng chiến, told by Comrade Vũ Kỳ. The title already gives readers an idea of the story’s setting: a busy and difficult Tet holiday for Uncle Ho and his comrades in the spring of 1947.
The story starts in the spring of 1946, the first spring after Vietnam gained independence. At that time, Uncle Ho received much attention and admiration for his great leadership. However, he always stayed humble, giving modest answers to the press and focusing entirely on the people and the country, never caring about personal fame or fortune.
In early 1947, Uncle Ho sent New Year’s letters to the Government, the army, and the French people, hoping for a peaceful spring for both nations. However, ignoring his goodwill, the French military sent three ultimatum letters, provoking and forcing Vietnam into war.

After that, Uncle Ho and his comrades had to prepare for a long resistance war, even during Tet. Despite being the President and the respected leader of Vietnam, Uncle Ho lived very simply. He ate plain meals, worked on time every day, wrote letters to encourage the people, sent New Year’s wishes, and recorded heartfelt messages for the nation.













-Uucle Ho's writing-
ing, Uncle Ho never amed anyone. He was r of Vietnam, a great y, kindness, and love someone for future .
Morality Lesson
This story shows the great love and dedication President Ho Chi Minh had for Vietnam's revolution and people. In the Spring of 1946, he sent letters appealing for peace to the leaders and France’s citizens. Vu Ky said that Ho Chi Minh was constantly thinking about the nation's future and the tasks that the young Party needed to accomplish. He worked relentlessly, to the point of becoming so thin and his hair turning white. To conclude, it was this unwavering determination and lifelong dedication of President Ho Chi Minh that led Vietnam to victory and independence.

"Giờ đây, mỗi lần Tết đến, không còn được
nghe Bác đọc thơ chúc Tết trên Đài Phát thanh, nhưng trong tôi vẫn vang vọng lời thơ như tiếng
kèn thúc trận từ đêm giao thừa năm ấy "
