That's why they're special. They don't need to.

Only Russians can make the dumbest rednecks look smart and sophisticated.

They do drills that a 10 year old would dream up.

I think you're basically right.

They teach some weird control techniques using the AK to herd prisoners around, including that one IIRC.  If you have to shoot and you have a prisoner, might as well use them as a meat shield, right?

I'm sure Hitler and Napoleon had the same thought.  

It's a video, but it would be a mistake to sell them short.

yeah didn't you know that a sling over your head and both arms pinned back by an AK instantly makes you a zombie willing to walk around while Ivan uses you as his personal bullet catcher...

The thing I wondered about is if you're doing that, and your meat shield gets shot and falls down, not only do you lose the prisoner, but you lose your weapon too unless you can wrestle it away from his body while more bullets are coming your direction.

It's the captured soldier's weapon

I swear, some people in GD could watch a backhoe at work and say "Nope, shovel's still faster" because that's how they were taught to dig

It's sort of a joke.  Sort of.  You have to admit that was god awful.  Plus both those gentlemen you mentioned had armies who mostly relied on horses for logistics.  We have a bigger concern than the Russian Winter.  Nuclear Winter.

I hear you, but they always seem to beat the odds.
If they have to. They will beat victory out of their populace. That's not going to happen here.

I think so. the guy in the turret towards the end didn't have one and needed to manually cycle his AK.

What?

They have never had any odds to beat.

Napoleon didn't have the economy or logistical infrastructure and Hitler didn't have the economy, logistical infrastructure, and the US held the Soviets manufacturing hand through the entire war.

Those are not overcoming odds.  Those are stupid decisions made by invading countries and Russia lucking out and having good allies.

Hitler's military would have eaten them alive in short order had the war simply been Nazi Germany vs USSR.
