Nat. 1964 When Nazir, commander of the cavalry, saw the enemy in close phalanx array, he laughed, even in the excitement of the charge. “Fools!” he chuckled. “Now they will be better targets for our guns and our horses will trample them to death! Victory is ours!” While the archers stood their ground, laying down a thick barrage of arrows, the resolute ape man summoned his eager reserves of heavy infantry from their concealment in the woodland. “Solid phalanx!” he shouted to them. “Archers to the right and left wings!” After his command had been swiftly executed, Tar- zan issued instructions to the archers. “Aim at the men; spare the horses.” Even at the cost of mili- tary advantage, the lord of the jungle sought to save those noble, innocent creatures from suffering.
