:34:02
The classical attack of the Zulus
is in the shape of a bull buffalo.
:34:07
The head, the horns and the loins.
:34:12
First, the head moves forward.
The enemy moves in to meet it.
:34:16
But it's only a feint.
:34:18
The warriors in the head disperse
to form the encircling horns.
:34:22
The enemy is drawn in on the loins.
:34:24
The horns close in
on the back and sides.
:34:31
Finish.
:34:36
It looks jolly simple, doesn't it?
:34:39
It's jolly deadly, old boy.
:34:44
Well done.
We'll make an Englishman of you yet.
:34:46
No, thanks. I'm a Boer.
:34:48
The Zulus are the enemies of
my blood. What are you doing here?
:34:53
You don't object to our help?
:34:56
It depends what you damned English
want for it afterwards.
:34:59
Alright. Hospital. Church.
:35:03
Cattle kraal. Stables.
:35:05
An outside perimeter
joining the buildings here and here.
:35:09
We don't move out to meet
the feint of the buffalo head.
:35:12
We hold the outside perimeter.
If that collapses, we move back
:35:16
into this area here. How high
can you build a wall, Bromhead?
:35:21
It should be shoulder high.
:35:23
But if the fuzzies
moved out of Isandhlwana immediately,
:35:26
they could be here, well, now.
:35:29
It's just a matter of time.
:35:36
We'll have to make the time.
:35:41
Your only plan is to stand behind
a few feet of mealie bags,
:35:45
and wait for the attack?
:35:49
That's right. We wait.
:35:51
If 1,200 men couldn't hold
a defensive position this morning,
:35:55
what chance have we with 100?
