Not surprised, that is an old Injun trick to fool the Calvary. Leave many empty fires burning at campground.
” Leave many empty fires burning at campground.”
The Greeks used the same tactic when 10,000 Greeks/Spartans escaped to the sea in the Anabassis...which is the source for the movie THE WARRIORS.
Every time the idiot persians came close to slaughtering them the following morning, the Greek generals escape during the night by decoys of campfire to show they were “sleeping”..
Good one!
