On the Road to Haiya


The next clash between the forces of Empire and the Mahdists has begun on the rolling plain outside the Hadendowah capital. So far the Imperial army is holding its own. Even the Egyptian contingent is performing well, although it seems to have got itself into a peculiar formation. Words and pics to follow.

The British square on the march. To their left the first battalion of the Egyptian contingent appears.
