The brigands led by Black Jack and the Hook are camped in the the old roman ruins in the outer woods of the Sackwald.
With the dismounted dragoons lost in the woods, Lieutenant Becke in charge of the jagers in the absence of Captain Scharfe, decides to attack the brigand's camp while they have the opportunity.

A brigand on look out duty ....
The jagers close in, a brigand lookout runs towards the camp to raise the alarm...
Jagers start to emerge from the wood taking out another of the brigands' lookouts
The camp has been alerted and the brigands grab their guns and stand to ...
The jagers form up and start firing into the camp ....
More jagers move up to get try and get round the back of the camp .....
The jagers are starting to take a toll on the brigands ...
Captain Scharfe has arrived, Becke brings him up to date on the situation ....
Shouting to their men to move to the attack Black Jack and the Hook run forward, but only some of the their men follow ....
The jagers have worked their way round the back of the camp .....
with the jagers now behind them the rest of brigands rush out of the camp and make for the nearest wooded area, attacking any jagers in their way with great ferocity ....
the jagers try to hold them off ....
having broken through the jagers a small number of brigands reach the safety of the woods, including Black Jack and the Hook....
---oXo---
Although the bulk of the brigands were killed or captured, Captain Scharfe is none too pleased that Black Jack and the Hook have managed to escape. He'd catch up with some day he mused ....
