A Rare Sudan Pair to Private T. Stevens of the 21st Lancers, who Charged and Suffered a Severe Spear Wound to the Chest at the Battle of Omdurman, September 2nd 1898, Queen’s Sudan Medal (3881 Pte. T. Stevens 21/L’CRS.) Khedive’s Sudan Medal 1896-1908, one clasp, Khartoum (3881 Pte. Stevens. 21st Lrs.). The Battle took place at Kerreri, 11 km north of Omdurman., Lord Kitchener commanded a force of 8,000 British regulars and a mixed force of 17,000 Sudanese and Egyptian troops, he arranged his force in an arc around the village of Egeiga, close to the bank of the Nile, where a gunboat flotilla waited in support, facing a wide, flat plain with hills rising to the left and right, the British and Egyptian cavalry was placed on either flank. Abdullah’s Dervishes, numbered around 50,000, including some 3,000 cavalry, split into five groups—a force of 8,000 under Osman Azrak was arrayed directly opposite the British, in a shallow arc along a mile of a low ridge leading onto the plain, and the other Mahdist forces were initially concealed from Kitchener’s force, Abdullah al-Taashi and 17,000 men were concealed behind the Surgham Hills to the west and rear of Osman Azrak’s force, with 20,000 more positioned to the northwest, close to the front behind the Kerreri Hills, commanded by Ali-Wad-Helu and Sheikh ed-Din. A final force of around 8,000 was gathered on the slope at the right flank of Azrak’s force. The battle began in the early morning, at around 6:00 a.m. After the clashes of the previous day, the 8,000 men under Osman Azrak advanced straight at the waiting British, quickly followed by about 8,000 of those waiting to the northwest, a mixed force of riflemen and spearmen. The British artillery opened fire at around 2750 m, inflicting severe casualties on the Mahdist forces before they even came within range of the Maxim guns and volley fire. The frontal attack ended quickly, with around 4,000 Mahdist casualties; none of the attackers got closer than 50 m to the British trenches. A flanking move from the Ansar right was also checked, and there were bloody clashes on the opposite flank that scattered the Mahdist forces there. Kitchener was anxious to occupy Omdurman before the remaining Mahdist forces could withdraw there, he advanced his army on the city, arranging them in separate columns for the attack, the British light cavalry regiment, the 21st Lancers, was sent ahead to clear the plain to Omdurman, the 400-strong regiment attacked what they thought were only a few hundred dervishes, but in fact there were 2,500 infantry hidden behind them in a depression, after a fierce clash the Lancers drove them back (resulting in three Victoria Crosses being awarded). On a larger scale the British advance allowed the Khalifa to re-organize his forces. He still had over 30,000 men in the field and directed his main reserve to attack from the west while ordering the forces to the northwest to attack simultaneously over the Kerreri Hills. Kitchener’s force wheeled left in echelon to advance up Surgham Ridge and then southwards. To protect the rear, a brigade of 3,000, mainly Sudanese commanded by Hector MacDonald, was reinforced with Maxims and artillery and followed the main force at around 1350 m. MacDonald was alerted to the presence of around 15,000 enemy troops moving towards him from the west, out from behind Surgham, he wheeled his force and lined them up to face the enemy charge, the Mahdist infantry attacked in two prongs and MacDonald was forced to repeatedly re-order his battalions, the brigade maintained a punishing fire, Kitchener, now aware of the problem, began to throw his brigades about as if they were companies, MacDonald’s brigade was soon reinforced and the Mahdist forces were forced back and finally broke and fled or died where they stood, the Mahdist forces to the north had regrouped too late and entered the clash only after the force in the central valley had been routed, they pressed Macdonald’s Sudanese brigades hard, but the Lincolnshire Regiment was quickly brought up and with sustained section volleys repulsed the advance, a final desperate cavalry charge of around 500 horsemen was utterly destroyed. Around 10,000 Mahdists were killed, 13,000 wounded and 5,000 taken prisoner, Kitchener’s force lost 47 men killed and 382 wounded, the majority from MacDonald’s command. One eye-witness described the appalling scene. ‘They could never get near and they refused to hold back . . . It was not a battle but an execution. The bodies were not in heaps-bodies hardly ever are; but they spread evenly over acres and acres. Some lay very composedly with their slippers placed under their heads for a last pillow; some knelt, cut short in the middle of a last prayer. Others were torn to pieces’.View on dnfa.com
