Gabriel saw they are discussing tactics and upon hearing reason why captain of the king's army soldiers shaked his head he speaks after lady Luna finished; "Then you listen me, as I am both as captain of king's army and king granted me full authority to speak under his name during his absence. I agree we need blow off the bridges to buy time but we should not give effort to prevent the army moving towards the Castle of Grey Steel. As if they go to siege mode there they will be effectively stuck for months. I gave protectors, decent amount soldiers and supplies for the king last there for months if under siege. It was one reasons I placed him there.<br/><br/>If army is split into two; one sieging the king and other trying take capital we can focus entirely on forces focused on capital or elsewhere. But we need think already how we move our own troops if we blow up the bridges but I think some independant engineers or artisans could along with army build a simple bridge made from logs and chains to form perhaps not most stable bridge but stable enough slowly move troops over the river without soaking the content of the supply carts. But it would be better if we send smaller elite unit on those bridges not to destroy them but sabotage them so they collapse once it gets enough weight upon it. That way we could take out some of enemy forces or if lucky we split their forces when lighter infantry crosses and then upon heavy infantry or supply carts get sinked into the river.<br/><br/>So do you either one of you have objection to my proposal? We need hand pick the team going down to both bridges and give them means sabotage them so they will crumble when used. If enemy scouts would see bridges are gone they could start perhaps day earlier design new route, where if bridges break they are forced either repair or build new bridges or plan route wide around."
