Tibetans armed with muskets and spears mowed down by machine gun, and when they got to Lhasa they discovered ... no Russians. The invasion was led by Francis Younghusband: en.wikipedia.org amazon.com His story is very interesting: "During his 1904 retreat from Tibet, Younghusband had a mystical experience which suffused him with "love for the whole world" and convinced him that "men at heart are divine."
