:31:00
We have just come from his kraal.
He's a member of my parish.
:31:06
Your parish? Are you sure you're on
the right side of the river?
:31:12
I am here to do my duty.
I expect your cooperation.
:31:18
What's our strength?
:31:20
Seven officers,
including surgeon, commissaries.
:31:23
And Adendorff now, I suppose.
Wounded and sick, 36.
:31:27
Fit for duty, 97.
And about 40 native levies.
:31:32
Not much of an army for you.
:31:34
There are 4,000 Zulus
coming against you.
:31:37
You must abandon this mission.
:31:41
Mr Chard?
:31:44
Adendorff sent his trooper
to Helpmekaar.
:31:46
- There's a relief column there.
- There was three days ago.
:31:53
Mr Bromhead, issue our walking
wounded with arms and ammunition.
:31:57
You will all be killed
like those this morning.
:32:00
And now the sick in their beds.
All of you.
:32:03
I don't think so, Mr Witt.
:32:05
The army doesn't like
more than one disaster in a day.
:32:08
Looks bad in the newspapers and
upsets civilians at their breakfast.
:32:13
Sir, the Book says, "There is no king
:32:17
that can be saved
by the multitude of a host..."
:32:22
Mr Witt?
:32:23
When I have the impertinence
to climb into your pulpit
:32:26
and deliver a sermon,
then you may tell me my duty.
:32:29
It is not your duty
to sacrifice the sick.
:32:32
Are you a student of tactics too,
Miss Witt?
:32:34
Are you a Christian?
:32:38
Sgt Windridge?
:32:39
It is your duty
to let us take those men away.
:32:42
Not that way, Miss Witt.
:32:44
- Sir.
- Come, daughter.
:32:52
Sergeant, put two good men
on that hill.
:32:54
Tell them to keep their eyes peeled.
:32:57
- Mr Bromhead, sir?
- Double up, dammit!
:32:59
Carry on, Sgt Windridge,
there's a good fellow.
