    How do they maintain morale for the remaining troops if they execute their own?

    And how would they recruite fresh ones if this will be the possible fate of the troops?

      They forcibly recurit people. Thats why so many young russian men left the country since the invasion.

      They can’t build morale so they use fear. I have a suspicion it mustn’t be as effective.

      They don’t care about morale. They rule their troop with brutal means.

      And how would they recruite fresh ones if this will be the possible fate of the troops?

      Through forced conscription.

            Yeah, they won’t surrender, just saying they could. Like the Russian soldier who flew a helicopter into Ukraine to surrender.

            They do have a choice.
