Once the two groups move out of my line of sight all I really need to do is sit back and wait. I am totally expecting the plan to go wrong at some point, nothing ever works out perfectly. That is why it is best to keep a plan simple, the more complex you make it the more that can go wrong.
With a simple plan and a simple set of goals even when something goes wrong it is easy to adapt or improvise and keep going in the same general direction. With these kids simple is best, they are so nervous that if the plan was complicated they would likely forget it in the heat of battle. I am probably not much better, I was never in the military or anything, in fact I never got into a real fight until I came to this world.
All my knowledge comes from books and movies, but I at least think things through and use common sense. That and fighting for survival from day one has changed my perspective, I have also learned from the mistakes I have made. Right as I think that I notice increased activity in the mining camp.
There are soldiers yelling and pointing at something, when I follow the direction I see a red pulse of light high in the sky. It looks like an emergency flare except it isn't falling, it must be the magical equivalent. It is off to the west so it must be Giles group, it has been long enough they should be on their second group.
Well, the soldiers being alerted isn't too big a deal, it just means they will move sooner than planned. Even now I can see them organizing and getting ready to send reinforcements. Since the others are busy it will be my job to intercept and kill the reinforcements.
"Brother raven, can you track down both groups and let them know I will be intercepting the reinforcements?"
Brother Raven says "Sure! Leave it to me."
"Thank you!"
As brother raven flies off I leave the ridge and mount Lizzy, we ride towards the road. I don't want to intercept them too close to the mine or they will just fall back, I will wait until they head towards the west and attack them from behind. Lizzy and I quickly take position on a hilltop where we can see the road to the mine.
About fifteen minutes later soldiers march up out of the mine and turn west, I count them as they pass. Five hundred, a bit more than I expected but manageable. Once they move a decent distance I ride Lizzy down and quickly catch up to them.
'Summon Bones!'
"Bones, those five hundred humans need to die."
Bones rushes in to start killing the soldiers, their screams quickly drown out his happy chattering. As the sounds of combat build Lizzy starts dancing beneath me, she is eager to join in. I draw Blitz then give Lizzy a single squeeze with my knees and she leaps towards the fight instantly.
Lizzy hits the soldiers like a hurricane, she tramples the first few and then bites the head off another. As she pushes through the soldiers I swing Blitz to either side cutting down any that she misses. Watching Lizzy I can't help but think she could probably handle all these soldiers on her own.
