With constant weapon advances it is difficult to accurately predict what old tactics will work well.
Being tied to a road in enemy held territory at various stages of warfare has been a really bad thing. If all one needs to do is take out a couple of things at the beginning and end of a column to set up an ambush//killing zone, then travelling in a long column may not be a very good idea.
Ever since the advent of mechanized warfare, that has been the case.
If the countryside is impassable there may be no alternative. In much of Ukraine right now it is deep mud off the roads, which is typical of the region and was very significant in WW2. If they get a freeze that may change.
This mud problem was not limited to Eastern Europe. That convoy thing was also present in Operation Market Garden in 1944. The British could not operate off road on the muddy Dutch fields, so the long, long convoy had to face many roadblocks head on, and was counterattacked and ambushed over and over. Thats one reason why they were late getting to Arnhem, the “Bridge Too Far”.
