ABSTRACT

W aitu-shan being taken with ease, the emboldened thousands of our soldiers now began to chase the fleeing enemy along the long, narrow path leading from Ling-shui-ho-tzu to the 368-metre hill, that is, Kenzan. The object of this march was to attack the Russians occupying Ken-zan, and our men were more eager and enthusiastic than ever, and fully expected to take this hill with one single stroke.
