The painting aims to portray the soldiers fighting in an orderly manner from high ground and includes various events from an aerial perspective.
Traditional Mongol painting techniques are utilized, including the representation of the horizon jutting above the mountains, the blue sky, clouds, and trees against a pale yellow backdrop.
On the lower right side of the painting we can see a woman standing with a dog outside her house, sprinkling milk as a symbol of blessing a victory and her son farewell, who has joined the People's Regular Army.
The image shows General D. Sukhbaatar, leader of the People's Regular Army, in the center. He is mounted on a horse, carrying guns and swords, and is seen battling from the southwestern front with a sword in hand.
The red flag of the People's Regular Army waves proudly behind General Sukhbaatar. Warriors on horseback charge forward, their weapons raised in a show of force. The scene is filled with a sense of national pride and determination.
This painting, inspired by historical sources, depicts the decisive victory of the People's Regular Army and the significance of this event.
