From my personal understanding of the army, the last battle actually includes the previous ones. In order to highlight the tragic battle, the director seemed to exaggerate the chaotic scene a bit too much. Because according to the kind of chaos in the movie, it seems impossible for the Soviet army to stand in the world as an army that could compete with the United States at that time, because that kind of fighting is almost no different from the rogue army.
First, a company of more than 100 people, regardless of machine guns or rifles, all are strafing, basically no helmets, no bunkers, standing strafing, this kind of picture is very heroic, but the real regular army is rare. This play.
Second, since there are so many Afghan troops, how could the sentinels not find it?
Third, this location is a highland. As the name suggests, it is the highest point of a certain place. However, there are pictures of companies being attacked by Afghans from higher places throughout the film, including the last battle. The enemy army came (but the subsequent battle was fought down by the ninth company). This is not a high ground in the military, but a dead place.
