In 2014, the Provincial Steering Committee for Regional Defense Exercises assigned Con Cuong district to organize an exercise incorporating several new elements, such as: implementing a Government Decree; the operation of an emergency command center to address pressing and prominent issues in the area; transitioning the district's armed forces to a state of combat readiness; transitioning the locality into various states of national defense; defeating the "peaceful evolution and subversive rebellion" strategy of hostile forces; and maintaining the district's defense zone. The training focused on: transitioning the armed forces from a state of regular combat readiness to a high state, and from a high state to full readiness; transitioning the locality into a state of emergency and wartime operations; organizing and practicing defense against enemy air attacks; practicing relocating the command center to a secret assembly area; and a meeting of the District Military Party Committee to approve the defensive combat plan of the District Military Command Commander. The District People's Committee organized a conference to assign tasks and coordinate defense operations; approved defense operational plans for the Party and government sectors; and conducted drills to mobilize forces and resources, and live-fire exercises to counter enemy infiltration across the border.
