Empress Hông was unexpectedly was woken up by an unexpected call from Nam Dinh a few hours after midnight.
"Your Imperial Majesty", Châu, Hông's personal assistant told the empress while another female servant has helping her to dress, "we have lost communication with Hôi Luỳên".
"You can leave", Empress Hông told Châu, "I will be waiting in the main hall in five minutes".
"This is a disastre, a nigthmare", said Takahito, Hông's husband. "We should leave with the children, before it's too late for that".
"Don't be stupid", the empress replied. "I am not leaving anywhere".
A few minutes after General Lê Công Thuân addressed the nation in Hôi Luỳên, Empress Hông was still in his residential palace in Nam Dinh. From her window she could see the smoke and burning buildings, and from time to time, some distant but isolated shootings.
Hông was informed that a few armed soldiers had attempted to move toward the road that leads to the palace, but they were successfuly repelled by the Imperial Guard.
Despite the country had no longer a government, or at least a legitimate government, Admiral Bûi Thành Quyên decisively changed the situation in Nam Dinh when he ordered the navy to approach and defend Nam Dinh. Hoinomese marines disembarked in Nam Dinh main port, joining soon the remaining forces loyal to the local government. The forces led by Lieutenant-Colonel Phan Dûc Vinh were forced to withdraw from several district. Nevertheless, the fight continued, leaving dozens of casualties in both sides.

"I bring bad news, general", Lieutenant-General Dào Công Dùng. "It has been confirmed that Lieutenant-Colonel Phan [Dùc Vinh] has surrendered in Nam Dinh. Following the empress' message, forces in Giàp Hai, Bùc Duông, and Mau Tinh have followed. What should we do that?".
"Wait new orders, that's it", General Lê Công Thuân coldly replied.
"Yes, sir", Lieutenant-General Dào said.
"The worst thing is that we have lost all coastline, severely complicating our supplies", General Kiêu Công Trai said. "We have still military superiority, and a coastline without a navy would be useless in the short-time anyway".
"We can advance toward the coast soon, and force Nam Dinh to accept defeat", General Lê told Kiêu. "The political complications are more serious. But we have more serious things to deal immediately. We can not lose Yêng Nông. We must advance toward the north at any cost".
"Indeed", General Kiêu replied. "I have already told with Bûi and promise him more men. I will immediately confirm such order".
