As they got all the young boys and old men out for battle, I couldn't help but think "What about the women? Surely and 20 year-old woman is a better fighter than a 12 year-old boy?". If they thought the battle was so hopeless, why didn't they just get everyone out their fighting? It would have evened the odds up a little.
