Russian Warrior Monks

I am excited about all the new Redbox 16th Century sets including the Russian Warrior Monks, but I am ignorant about this period. Does anyone know who these monks fought? Also if anyone has any good books on the subject that they could recommend, that would be welcomed. Thanks in advance.

My guess is the monks can probably be added to Russian units rather than forming "Monk" units.
