Do that en-masse, and they’ll be seen by satellite/airborne drones, and before the Russian ground troops move forward (beyond where the existing "militia" are), the Ukrainian forces will be hit by artillery, short range ballistic misfiles, and ground attack aircraft…

The best way to blunt/slow down the Russians moving forward is with small stealthy mobile teams (platoon size) armed with anti-tank and anti-aircraft weaponry, utilising asymmetric warfare - any large groupings would be pulverised from a distance; it will be more of a Vietnam conflict than a Korean War, imho.
