Azalea was soon enough returning back and was stating, "A couple thousand that are headed towards us it seems. Swords, spears, and bows. I didn't spot any mounts so this force is moving on foot it seems."
Robert nodded "that will make things easier then" Robert smoothed the map out a bit and then pointed to where they had worked "we weakened this area so once they walk on it they are going to fall but I don't know how many that will take down or how long it will set them back
Azalea was just commenting that she would take care of that before she was tapping on the map to show that other than that route there were only two other routes that could be taken. "We will set up stronger forces at this two routes and a weaker force here." She was speaking after a moment in time.
Azalea was just making a couple of notes before she was looking towards her second as he was bringing up that they should give warning to General Grant as well.
Robert picked up and penned some paper and went to work writing a letter but instead to Grant it was to his brother using a special code so that it couldn't be read
Azalea was just watching for a moment but she didn't say much of anything. Although she was looking at one of her men as they came in and was stating that they had rounded up some of the people that seemed suspicious as had been ordered.
