Back to the wall
 

back to the wall

走投无路，陷入困境
 

This phrase means that someone is in a desperate situation and can not find a way out.

这个短语指的是某人陷入绝境，找不到出路。
 

走投无路，也就是无路可走。比喻陷入困境，没有出路。这个词给人一种万念俱灰，没有任何希望的感觉。也许有时生活会把你逼到“走投无路”，但不要忘记你身后还有一条路，也希望你心中仍能相信会有“柳暗花明”的那一刻。
 

After these days' fight, the soldiers had their back to the wall.

在这些天的激战后，士兵们陷入了绝境。
