They were wrong! I didn't explain more and simply continued taking all the weapons and ammo. "I want you to fortify this place, place the weapons here to prepare for a brutal and bloody hell kind of a fight… Got it?"
I needed them to understand what their next role was. Or else when things would turn bad, they might be overwhelmed with confusion and fear, not able to do what they were supposed to.
When Hescos would arrive, they'd make sure my forces would have zero chance at any comeback. And amidst all this, I doubted I'd have time to come all the way down here and give orders to these forces.
So it was crucial for them to fully grasp the entire situation early on and understand their role in it. If they did their part right, then we'd have a good chance at countering the incoming Hescos.
I left behind the warriors in the tunnels as the first line of defence. But if this line got crushed, then the weapon legion here would be the second line of defence.
