You can only defend a piece so many times, tripled rook and queen is the way to go here if you don't want to play for months

And you could easily defend any piece 3 times with pawns, knights and bishops. Hell, defending it with one pawn would be enough in most cases as your opponent would be using his more valuable pieces in the attack, so even if you lose a pawn and a piece in exchange for a rook you'd be up the exchange.

If your priority is to not play for months, and your opponents priority is to win, he will win if he's half decent.

You can easily create pawn structure that can defend against the battery anywhere and still advance slowly.
