      Because it was separated in 3 firing lines; the first line of kneeled soldiers would fire, then the second would fire while the first one reloaded, then the third line would fire while the second reloaded. This processs would repeat over and over again, requiring high discipline and training, but it never failed in hundreds of years and wars for the British.

    They grew up being cared for by mother and father, the partied, they had friends, and fell in love. They had dreams and aspirations.

      The British were under the command of a Royal family that itself were nothing more than the puppets of the real power behind the British Empire - The Crown Corporation of the City of London.
      Now the Americans took over the reign after WW1 and you can swap the Crown Corporation of the City of London (Bank of England) with the American Federal Reserve.
      All American armed forces personnel do, as did the British before them, is to invade foreign lands, plunder the resources, install a puppet government & private bank and enforce debt slavery upon the people within.

      While a force is organized and fighting it is much more effective at protecting itself, especially when compared to a force that has been routed and/or is retreating. In this example each British soldier would on average have killed about 15 Zulu soldiers. If they spent 5 hours to do so, that equates to an average of one every 20 minutes, which is feasible. Apparently being mounted with better weapons, chasing a scared person on foot in open terrain, is quite an advantage. As difficult as charging Gatling guns, cannons and packed rifle fire must have been, the Zulus would probably have been much better off had they pressed their attack. I imagine morale played a big part. The Zulu warriors knowing they were going into a fight with an enemy that can beat then from a distance with little risk to themselves. must have demoralized them before the battle even began.

    These are battles which we will never forget from Britain. They had no business being in Zululand or any other part of the land for that matter. They award themselves crosses of bravery for killing men in their own land.

    The Zulu Won the first battle because they had a smart,competent leader unfortunately the brothers of the Zulu leader in an attempt to take power assasinated him and they where not as smart as the king they ordered mass charges like shown here assuming they could simple overwhelm the British not caring about overestimating there aponet costing Africa another Great Empire,so much promise taken away by divisions,greed and betrayal.

    This video is an interesting kind of communist propaganda. Magical historical narrated fiction. Told from the omniscient point of view.
    The video is magical insofar as it’s made possible by technology. It’s historical insofar as it refers (accurately or not) to an (alleged) event in the past. It’s fiction insofar as the physical events are depicted interpretively. And it’s “true” because it’s (told) (witnessed) (attested) by a narrator who’s omniscience can’t be questioned.
    And most of all: It’s selective insofar as it omits the intellectual chain of reasoning on both sides which preceded the war.
    It’s timeless.
    And ageless.
    And Majestic.

Doubtless the ancient Britons had a similar experience when the Roman empire halped itself to what is now England!

    This is not accurate, the Zulus defeated the British at Islandwana/Rohrs Drift. The white stone monuments for each fallen British soldier are still there. How do I know, because I stood there. The Zulus defeated the British with spears and asagis (spelling). The British won afterwards at Red River, I went there too. This video is garbage, because this was not the battle formation the Zulus fought with. Semper Fi Mo

    The fact that the Zulu sued for peace and got rejected so they could be slaughtered is a despicable act by the British. The Zulu knew they were beaten at this point and after the slaughter the British left... What the heck. I didn't live in those times and I admit I don't understand all the politics but surrender is surrender and they forced them to fight. Wow, just Wow.

    • @the5thmusketeer215
      @the5thmusketeer215 Před měsícem

      “The British” didn’t really do any of that…
      That entire war was deliberately started & pursued by the political ambitions & wicked machinations of Sir Henry Bartle Frere - High Commissioner for South Africa - with the connivance & approval of Lord Chelmsford - neither of whom consulted with or had the approval of the British Government for their actions. They relied upon the enormous distance to the U.K. & the length of time that communications took between the two regions, to give them the opportunity to provoke & win a war with the Zulus, before they could be prevented from taking such a reckless & unauthorised course of action…
      The unanticipated British defeat at Isandlwana & the mass slaughter of the British troops there - with no prisoners taken - sent shock waves throughout the British Empire when it became known, & there was an outcry among the British public at home, who wanted the loss of their brave soldiers to be avenged. Thus, the British Government were virtually compelled to send reinforcements to South Africa & to replace Lord Chelmsford as the Commander in the Field - both for his unauthorised invasion of Natal & for compounding that outrageous action, by losing so many Men in such a recklessly incompetent manner… However, until Chelmsford could be replaced with General Wolseley, the war was already in progress & the Zulus were on the rampage. In addition, Lord Chelmsford was determined to defeat the Zulus before he could be replaced… Thus, what had already been started - without the wishes or the authority of the British Government - could not easily be stopped… & the offer of peace by King Cetshwayo (which he made after several subsequent Zulu defeats) was made to Lord Chelmsford, who had no intention of accepting it, because he was determined to defeat the Zulus decisively, so as to salvage some credibility back home & to finish **what he & Sir Bartle Frere had started.**
      We shall probably never know what would have happened if General Wolseley had already relieved Lord Chelmsford of command & HE had received Cetshwayo’s offer of peace instead,… although Wolseley himself was a very ambitious (& very capable )General, who perhaps might have preferred to defeat the Zulus in battle, than preside over their agreed upon surrender - but that is merely conjecture of course… What is truly TRAGIC however - as well as the deaths of so many brave Zulu & British troops in that war - is that King Cetshwayo was very favourably disposed towards Britain before the war started, & had clearly & deliberately been threatened & bullied into rejecting an outrageously concocted series of Machiavellian demands, in an ultimatum written by Sir Bartle Frere, so that British Troops effectively invaded the Zulu homeland, merely to satisfy the geopolitical ambitions of a few unscrupulous individuals. And is that not the case with SO MANY wars that have been fought throughout the World, from ancient times, to the present day…? 🤷🏻‍♂️ 😔
