Siberian skirmishers move through Liaoyang, arriving to reinforce Kuropatkin’s army. Note the rolled packs and papaha sheepskin hats (the locally made versions being known as the Manchzhurka) as well as the entrenching tools visible on several of the soldiers. The tools alone demonstrate the skirmishers’ recent arrival, as most Russian soldiers threw their spades away fairly quickly, seeing them as a needless encumbrance – one Russian officer at Mukden noted that most of his regiment could muster only between three and ten spades per company.
