That is one possible explanation. But it is also entirely possible for the same army to make more flat land in this land of slopes and place the artillery accordingly.
Are you seriously proposing that responses should await the entire civil engineering exercise? Are you aware of what is involved, in doing what you suggest (already planned, btw) on a mountain slope?
For that matter, are you aware of the topography that allows the other side to use the plains below the mountain slopes to site their own gun positions? Have you looked at a topographical map? Even Google Maps?
Perhaps the entire discussion is merely an exercise in semantics; the reality of the world in which these things are happening is not important, all that matters is how well couched accusations made in a vacuum are.
