During the First World War, the British troops landed on the Gallipoli Peninsula on April 25, 1915. They were stubbornly resisted by the Turkish troops. The British troops eventually failed miserably. At the same time, the Anzac regiments that participated in the war also suffered heavy losses. The history of this battle is called the Battle of Gallipoli.

"As long as the war continues, the retreat of Sufra Bay and the Anzac will be an unprecedented masterpiece in the eyes of all strategists."

General Charles Monroe presided over this retreat and was completed on January 9, 1916. No one was injured or killed. From each brigade to the echelon with the smallest number of people, the retreat time is scheduled according to their distance from the four embarkation docks. A group of six to twelve people, arranged in columns to cross dozens of small ditches, the person behind each group is often an officer, and he leaves a regular fuse to explode the mines in the tunnel. There were no lights or smoking, and the soldiers drove at a speed of one hour and three miles with a firm pace.

Every single line went to the designated dock without stopping, and the sound of footsteps was covered by a road paved with sandbags. The generals and private soldiers were packed in motorized barges, each carrying four hundred men. Careful points ensure that no one is left behind. The only sound was the trembling sound of the barge driving towards the sea with memories of defeat. The Turkish army was completely blindfolded, and they continued to fire grenade and bullets into the empty trenches.

This is the beginning of the film. The Turks entered the position and found that the enemy had run away. Two of the three sons of the fat man died in the battle during the previous half a year.

One side of this war is the Australian and New Zealand armies, as well as a French division and local Indian troops (Gurkhas), a total of about 78,000 people, gathered to deal with the German general Liman von Zander The newly-built Turkish Fifth Army with 84,000 men was under the command of Sri Lanka.

Due to lack of preparation and Commander Hamilton knew nothing about the battlefield situation. When he was assigned, he didn’t even know if Gallipoli had water.
