There are some Bulgarians who seem to be surrendering while others seem to be fighting. The Bulgarian men around it are sheilding themselves from the impact. To show the defeat of the Bulgarians, the Bulgarian flag is on the ground being held by an incapacitated solider. The Bulgarians are wearing green uniforms with red and gold embelishments.
