The russians literally have a Chechen battalion placed behind the assault line, whom specialize in shooting anyone that retreats.

Blocking regiments are common in meat grinder tactics. It's not exactly heroic, but it's a great way to keep payroll costs down when you're paying your soldiers several times the median salary.
