| Hello
Who were the pursuers?
Is there someone who knows exactly what the Zulu regiments that have massacred
the fugitives between the camp of Isandhlwana and the river Mzinyathi?
Cheers
Pascal

| Hi all
What after years of discus with all the surroundings of the Battle of Isandhlwana,
there is not one that I can tell me what Zulu regiments massacred the fugitives ...
No one has ever asked the question?
You are not curious, guys ...
Cheers

| Most of the fugitives were stopped by the Zulu’s right horn. Then Dabulamanzi and co. would have no doubt despatched a few on their way to R.D. And of course the local natives who supposedly killed Coghill & Melville at the requests of the Zulus. |

| Hi David
Yes, but by going to Natal, a part of the reserve (inDluyengwe) to catch up the fugitives, near the river Mzinyati, and get some and modern weapons of the third column ... right?
So there were Martini - Henry with the inDluyengwe regiment at Rorke's Drift ..., right?
The last of the fugitives were killed by the Zulu regiment inDluyengwe and local zulus (Amakhosi's & Gamdana Sihyo's members), for the pursuit of the right horn, has not exceeded the river Manzymnyama... , right?
I wonder if the local Zulu (Amakhosi's & Gamdana Sihyo's adherents) have not fought at Rorke's Drift also with many men ... right?
In this case, as I do not think they could be incorporated into a regiment of the reserve for this battle, it can be the ones who made up the majority of snipers at Rorke's Drift ..., right?
Cheers
