Once upon a time, the birds and the beasts fought each other in a war. It was a terrible conflict, and the clever bats would side with the birds when the birds were looking victorious, and then they would become allies of the beasts when that side was winning battles. At last the war came to an end, the two parties reached an amicable settlement, and a great party of friendship was held. But when it came to the turn of the bats to perform in the program, their fence-straddling tactics were exposed, and everyone refused to associate with them. Since that time, the bats have been too ashamed to show their faces during the day, coming out only at night to flit silently around.

1916年，第一次世界大战期间的法国，德法两军的战争如火如荼。值此关键时刻，法国陆军将军布洛拉德（Adolphe Menjou 饰）向陆军上尉达克斯（柯克·道格拉斯 Kirk Douglas 饰）率领的部队下了一道命令：不惜一切代价攻下德军占领的安特山。军令如山，即使前方刀山火海，战士们仍拼死向前冲去。结局可想而知，在敌人密集的炮火下，法军冲锋失败，伤亡惨重。为了掩盖自己的指挥失误，布洛拉德抓捕三名无辜士兵作代罪羔羊，以临阵脱逃等罪名将他们判处死刑。为了士兵的利益，达克斯上尉奋力争取，却在这一过程中渐渐看清军官和战争的丑恶……本片根据汉弗雷·科比（Humphrey Cobb）1935年的小说《光荣之路》改编荣获1959年意大利国家影评人协会银带奖最佳外语片导演奖、1958年芬兰影艺学院奖最佳导演奖。

影片故事背景一如上集，主要人物布迪警长亦由上集的罗伊·谢德扮演，但是今次出现肆虐艾密迪海滩的大白鲨，却是一条满含恨意，一心前来报“杀夫之仇”的母鲨。
