1. Finland vs. the Soviet Union (Winter War, 1939-1940)
During the Winter War, Finland, vastly outnumbered by Soviet forces, fiercely resisted invasion by utilizing guerrilla tactics and their deep knowledge of the terrain. Finnish troops employed “motti” tactics, isolating and destroying smaller Soviet units, and made effective use of skis and sleds for rapid movement through the snow-covered landscape. This approach inflicted heavy losses on the Soviet forces and showcased Finland’s resilience.
