On the morning of April 14, 1954, the first enemy group patrolling the airport, the Muong Thanh field suddenly noticed that the trenches in the west had cut off communication between Huguette 1 (206th fortress) and Huguette 6 (105th fortress) and the central area. Another trench ran straight into Muong Thanh Airport. At noon, the sixth and eighth parachute units tried to open the way to Huguette 1, but were stopped by newly laid minefields and Vietnamese mortar rounds.
