They haven't even captured 1 big city Urban warfare is the most useless form of warfare. If anybody could learn the lessons from the Wehrmacht's disaster in Stalingrad, it would be the Russians. Note that the West still bombs cities, which converts the ruins into hundreds of defensive positions that have to be taken slowly and with heavy casualties. The Russians tend to leave cities mostly intact and flow around them, very similar in a way to the US policy of 'island-hopping' in the Pacific during World War 2.
