King Robert established himself in the hill country of Carrick and Galloway. </p><p>King Robert had learned well the sharp lesson delivered at Methven: never again would he allow himself to be trapped by a stronger enemy. His greatest weapon was his intimate knowledge of the Scottish countryside, which he used to his advantage. As well as making good use of the country's natural defences, he made sure that his force was as mobile as possible. King Robert was now fully aware that he could rarely expect to get the better of the English in open battle. His army was often weak in numbers and ill-equipped. It would be best used in small hit-and-run raids, allowing the best use of limited resources. He would keep the initiative and prevent the enemy from bringing his superior strength to bear. Whenever possible, crops would be destroyed and livestock removed from the path of the enemy's advance, denying him fresh supplies and fodder for the heavy war horses. Most important of all, King Robert recognised the seasonal nature of English invasions, which swept over the country like summer tides, only to withdraw before the onset of winter. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Loudoun_Hill">Loudoun Hill</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Loudoun_Hill&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Loudoun Hill"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Map_of_Battle_of_Loudoun_Hill.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Map_of_Battle_of_Loudoun_Hill.svg/220px-Map_of_Battle_of_Loudoun_Hill.svg.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="220" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Map_of_Battle_of_Loudoun_Hill.svg/330px-Map_of_Battle_of_Loudoun_Hill.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Map_of_Battle_of_Loudoun_Hill.svg/440px-Map_of_Battle_of_Loudoun_Hill.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="1000" data-file-height="1000" /></a><figcaption>Map of Battle of Loudoun Hill</figcaption></figure> <p>King Robert won his first small success at <a href="/wiki/Glen_Trool" title="Glen Trool">Glen Trool</a>, where he <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Glen_Trool" title="Battle of Glen Trool">ambushed an English force</a> led by Aymer de Valence, attacking from above with boulders and archers and driving them off with heavy losses.
