They attacked from three directions while you only need one direction for a cake walk to Kyiv. They clearly did expect resistance and did expect to fire guns.

I'm sorry but everything you have posted is an indication they didnt expect any resistance, they sent in a smaller portion #### troops with #### equipment, divided their forces into 5 or so thrusts, didnt amass any particular area of overwhelming force, basically that didnt do a damn thing to beat the Ukrainians at all, they didn't expect them to fight.
If they had expected a fight they would have brought their best troops in their best equipment to spearhead an overwhelming thrust in one theatre.
