Tinaldor all the had been sat in thought. Suddenly, the perfect strategy came to mind. Closing his book, he looked up at the two debating rulers.
"My friends.... What would be the least expected move? What have we been constantly doing every battle with these demons? Simple. Defending. They appear, attack us in large numbers, and then no matter if we destroy all their numbers, more seem to appear in another place. In war, we must do the unexpected to win. So my answer is this. I say we attack the enemy. We gather a small but elite force, and wage a war of attrition on them. Put them on the back foot. They would not expect this, and therefore we would then hold the advantage. "
Tinaldor grinned as more formed in his mind.
"But I deem you think, how do we find where they are based? Then my friends you forget important details. In the battle at Isengard we captured a demon. My army is two days march from Mordor, returning from the battle in Isengard, and is joining up with that of my Lieutenant who aided you Azrael. They have the demon with them. I say, we gather about a thousand elite men, release this demon, and track it. These demons do seem to suffer from lack of thought, so I deem it will return to wherever they majority of them are. We track it, then use the terrain to pick of a number of their forces. We force them to fight on our terms, in their terrain. This will anger them. Then, when we have worn them off enough, we draw them into a valley, deeming to finally retreat from harrasing them, and the majority of all the forces in middle earth shall meet them there, and there we slaughter as many as we can, then if necesarry, retreat again, find a high point, and prepare for a last battle. But, if this plan works, then the last stand will not be needed. Its risky, and there are many ifs, but in war, we must take chances, and my friends i was born for this...."
