During the winter offensive against Finland, the Russian 163rd Division was forced to withdraw into Suomussalmi after several vicious Finnish counterattacks.  As this placed the division in a vulnerable strategic position, the Finnish used the chance to isolate the 163rd from the remainder of the Russian invasion force.   Over the course of two weeks, the entire division was contained and wiped out by the Finnish 9th Army.*
