The film, which cost 1.7 billion yen, the largest production budget in the history of Chinese war movies, became a record-breaking hit after its release. The film was a big hit for its hour-long gruesomely realistic battle scenes, reminiscent of those in "Private Ryan". The film won four major awards at the Golden Rooster Film Festival, the Chinese Academy Awards. --After World War II, on the eve of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

However, their men are overwhelmingly outnumbered by the Kuomintang forces, and they lose their lives one after another. One of the wounded soldiers, on his deathbed, says that he heard the bugle call and advises his troops to retreat, but Gu Zhou Ti, who did not hear it, continues to fight...
