Taking advantage of the opportunity, the units quickly mobilized to occupy advantageous positions, used grenades and infantry guns to fiercely attack the enemy formation; After more than an hour of fierce fighting, we completely controlled the battlefield, escorted prisoners, resolved casualties and withdrew our troops. Between 4:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m., the enemy twice used aircraft to bombard the battlefield and sent troops from That Khe to rescue, but both were blocked by the forces of Battalion 53 and forced to retreat.
