First, find the city’s weakest spots—roads, gates, any high ground a foe could use. Then build layered walls and checkpoints so an attacker hits several barriers before reaching the heart of the city. Next, set up quick patrol routes and a clear line of communication so a threat can be reported and responded to instantly. Keep supplies—food, ammo, medicine—in secure, accessible places so we never run low. Train every able citizen a little; a disciplined people are a great first line of defense. Finally, gather intelligence—know the enemy’s plans before they strike. These points will keep our defense efficient, decisive, and free of blind spots.

Exactly. With that plan, we’ll have every corner watched, every resource protected, and a people ready to fight. No enemy will sneak past us, and if they do we’ll be ready to cut them off. Stay sharp, stay ready.
