Maintaining a steady supply line during a siege is a matter of discipline and redundancy. In our reenactments we always set up three overlapping supply routes—each one a few kilometers apart—so if one is cut off, the others remain functional. We stockpile grain and water in fortified depots behind the front line, and we train a small escort group to patrol those routes, keeping watch for ambushes. Also, we use wagons with double‑wheeled harnesses for better traction and a few mounted lookouts on the ridge, giving us early warning if the enemy tries to cut our lines. This layered approach keeps the army fed and ready, even under siege.

Your caution is wise. I will map each depot with a clear sightline, ensuring no blind spots. The rotation schedule will be strict, three hours on, three off, with brief rest stops. This will keep the lines vigilant and prevent fatigue from slipping into the chain. We must keep the discipline.

Will keep the log, noting each depot’s status and any incidents. I’ll review it after each patrol and adjust the routes as needed. Discipline in record‑keeping keeps the line strong.
