Stupid question, related to the successful incursion by Ukraine... how do you take over a town? I mean like... you go in, I guess you take over city hall or find the mayor? But for a big town, how does it actually work? This is a stupid way to say it, but I feel like there's a kind of awkward phase where you're just a guy driving through neighborhoods with a gun?
