IIRC, Crimeans had "X" hours to leave Crimea, stay and go home but give up their arms or join the Russian Army.

Just by numbers alone Ukrainian Nationalists were outnumbered 2 to 1 not even counting any Russian which came into Crimea.

It was reported very early on when Russian troops first began taking over the bases, that Ukrainian troops were given opportunity to lay down their arms and go home if they weren’t interested in joining the Russian Military. Most refused.
