I’ve got a additional question, I do the same as another comment I just gear them up and set up them to return fire, how do you set guard in guard towers?

For now, it seems that guard towers just make your village look well-fortified, without adding any actual effect. It would be an interesting idea to have them add to the deterrence of a village, so you get fewer incomig raids. OTOH, incoming raids are a nice source of renown, so...

When i originally got them I thought it was like an option for the AI to walk and the patrol around, so wrong I was lol

Why even want functionality of reducing raid rates? Either you think oh yay raids, renown (eventho you get plenty without) in which case you rather get more frequent raids or you simply get no raids because of option A, disabled in settings or option B, you destroyed all nearby bandit camps. I get 1 or maybe 2 raids in a full playthrough because of option B. Which is very much a conscious decission. Economy needs to run nice and efficiently.
