All of them are armed with sticks except Jones who was leading them and carrying a rifle in his hand.

They are without a doubt, wanting to take back the farm.

The animals had expected this for a long time, so they made all their precautions.

Snowball had read about Julius Caesar's campaigns in an old book he found in the farmhouse, so he took over the management of the defensive operations.

He gave his orders quickly so that every animal took its position in a short time.

When Jones and his men reached the farm buildings, Snowball launched his first attack.

The pigeon, numbering thirty-five, flew over the enemy battalion at a low height and threw its weapon on the skulls of the attackers.

After that, the enemy had to face the geese who had ambushed them behind the fence, charging and attacking violently.

So they began pecking at the men's legs.

It was not but a simple maneuver and distraction.

Later, the men started to fend off the geese with blows from their sticks then Snowball launched his second attack.

And he started leading the attack personally with his battalions, composed of Muriel, the white goat, and all the sheep.

Everyone attacked the men, and they began trampling them and butting them with their horns, surrounding them from all sides.

And despite that, Benjamin the donkey played an exceptional role, as he turned on himself and began kicking one after the other.

But for the second time, the men triumphed thanks to their sticks and armored boots.
