Siege of Port Arthur (1904–05)

On the Meiji Japan and post-Soviet Russia map as “Port Arthur”

Aug 1904–Jan 1905 — General Nogi’s Third Army lost nearly 60,000 men killed and wounded in the assaults on the Russian fortress, which surrendered on 2 January. The capture of 203 Metre Hill in December had given Japanese guns a position from which to sink the Russian squadron sheltering in the harbor below.
