The remains of the war, commemorating all the officers and soldiers who fought bravely! Yijiangshan, a small island off the coast of Zhejiang, was relocated to Taiwan by the National Government in 1949. At that time, for strategic considerations, they hoped to control Kinmen, Matsu, Dachen Island, and Yijiangshan off the coast of Zhejiang, and then counterattack the mainland. On January 18, 1955, the Chinese Communists launched a large-scale attack on Yijiangshan. After more than sixty hours, the defending commander detonated a grenade and committed suicide, and all the defending officers and soldiers were killed in action. The battle was tragic.
