I say the Battle of Hwangsanbeol, the armies of Bakje fought to the death, literally, and inflicted higher casulties on the opposing Silla armies, for Bakje was out numbered 10-1 the silla forces were 50,000 and bakje had 5,000. And on the western side of the country of bakje, the Tang dystanty sent 130,000 men to help Silla destroy bakje, so General Gyebaek leader of the hopeless army, knowing he would lose, inspired his men to make an epic stand. It was one of the few times in history the losing force ever fought to the death
I can also speak of The Battle of Thermopylae. The 300 Spartans under the command of Leonidas fought to the death even when they knew there was no chance of wining against the Persian army.
