He can only lie so much to his people, and with his arrest warranted, even if he wins the war, he might not have long to control Ukraine or do what he wants with it, whatever happens; he just has so much going against him that he may not be able to celebrate any victory for so long.
Russians told us they captured all of Bakhmut back in May. Haven't done much with it. One time in the US civil war about 12,000 men marched a mile over sun-baked fields into the mouths of Union cannon and musket fire. Maybe two hundred of 'em got up and over the stone wall where the boys in blue were holed up. Nothing much came of that either.
