Departing from , they crossed the Duman River and attacked and destroyed a 1-platoon-sized Japanese military police border post stationed in Gangyang-dong , Jongseong -gun, Hamgyeongbuk-do.

Accordingly, Lieutenant Jiro Nihimi, commander of the Japanese Army's Namyang Garrison, led one company and attacked them without permission.

The clever guidance operation of Platoon Commander Yi Hwa-il, who displayed outstanding skills in this battle, is highly regarded.

The leadership of the Korean Northern Army Command, including Hong Beom-do and Choi Jin-dong, judged that the best way to confront a superior enemy with inferior troops was to occupy key operational points.

The Yaskawa unit joined forces with the Nihimi Company to fight, but suffered significant damage due to adverse geographical conditions and a surprise attack.

When the Yaskawa unit arrived in the western part of the Goryeo region, it suffered a crushing defeat after coming under fierce fire from a small number of independence forces ambushed in the northern and northeastern highlands.
