    Russia did a shit tonne of work putting in mines, trenches, and structures everywhere. They might not fight for shit, but they can dig holes and place dragon teeth. Doesn’t really require much advanced thought or tech.

      Well, the quality of some of that work leaves much to be desired, in some cases. But even if it’s all crap there still is an awful lot of it so it’ll take time to clear a path.

      Also, while the morale of russian front-line soldiers is shit, their artillery in combination with minefields are responsible for most Ukrainian losses.
