Previously, implementing the direction of the Party Standing Committee and the Command of the Engineering Corps, the 229th Engineering Brigade mobilized forces and vehicles to quickly move to Hop Thinh and Tam Giang communes. The Engineering Corps proactively overcame all weather difficulties, especially flooded roads into small alleys to support the people. In the field, Major General Tran Trung Hoa, Commander of the Engineering Corps and Chief of the Corps Staff, directly directed the Brigade to urgently rescue people from flooded areas and promptly overcome landslides caused by storms and rains.

Despite the rain and deep floodwaters, the Engineer Corps still waded through the floodwaters to reinforce the dike and prevent overflow in Hop Thinh commune. At the same time, the 229th Engineer Brigade used 10 VSN-1500 boats with thrusters and nearly 1,000 life jackets and life buoys to promptly rescue and bring children, the elderly, pregnant women, and sick people in Dien Loc village, Tam Giang commune to safety. At the same time, they focused on transporting essential necessities to ensure the safety of nearly 300 households and transported nearly 100 tons of people's property to safety. The officers and soldiers of the 229th Engineer Brigade made every effort with the motto of rescuing people and property at all costs, not letting people go hungry or lack drinking water.
