Jap // Eastern Transvaal

Dear Steemains,

Boer forces fought in this area, one under Botha inside the south east and a second under Ben Viljoen in the north east round Lydenburg. Botha's forces had been specially energetic, raiding railways and British deliver convoys, or even mounting a renewed invasion of Natal in September 1901.

After defeating British mounted infantry within the conflict of Blood River Poort close to Dundee, Botha become compelled to withdraw by using heavy rains that made motion tough and crippled his horses. lower back at the Transvaal territory around his home district of Vryheid, Both a attacked a British raiding column at Bakenlaagte, the use of an effective installed fee. one of the most energetic British units became correctly destroyed in this engagement. This made Booth's forces the goal of an increasing number of huge and ruthless drives by means of British forces, wherein the British made precise use of native scouts and informers. eventually, Both a had to abandon the high veld and retreat to a narrow enclave bordering Swaziland.

To the north, Ben Vileness grew progressively much less energetic. His forces installed comparatively few assaults and as a end result, the Boer enclave round Oldenburg was in large part unmolested. Vileness changed into ultimately captured.
