Huang Jiguang's battalion has continued to fight for four days and four nights. On the fifth night, the superiors ordered to seize the enemy-occupied 597·9 Highland before dawn. The offense began. In the roar of the cannon, the soldiers rushed toward the enemy's position like tigers, occupying one hill after another, and they were about to reach the main peak of the 597·9 Highland. Suddenly, the enemy fired fiercely from a fire point. Dozens of machine guns ejected countless tongues of fire, intertwined into a
