A scene from The Last of the Mohicans 1992
Maj. Heyward

Might I inquire after the situation sir, given that I've seen the French engineering from the ridge above.

Colonel Munro

The situation is that his guns are bigger than mine and he has more of them. We keep our heads down while his troops dig 30 yards of trench a day. When those trenches are 200 yards from the fort and within range, he'll bring in his 15-inch mortars, lob explosive rounds over our walls, and pound us to dust.
