 Chapter 35: DEFEAT OF TE KOOTI | NZETC
Then it became clear that Te Kooti's movements in the forest country of the Hautere highland had all been designed with the object of drawing off the military forces from the Rotorua district, and Mair's men were frantically anxious to reach their homes and families in time to avert the impending ruthless blow.
Te Kooti meanwhile had emerged from the bush with his whole force, about two hundred armed men besides some women, and surprised a party of Ngati-Whakaue women and girls who were out gathering potatoes in a cultivation on the edge of the bush on the Tihi-o-Tonga slopes, south-west of Rotorua.
Te Kooti ordered the retreat to be resumed, and marched off for the Urewera Mountains looming a few miles away, while Tiwha triumphantly made demonstration of his contempt for the enemy that could be routed so easily, and danced his war-dance on the bank before returning to the little settlement he had saved from destruction.

 Feature: The flight of Te Kooti by Sid Marsh | New Zealand Listener
The 1870-72 Urewera expeditions were driven by a vengeful Colonial Government (also known as the Kawanatanga), desperate to track down and destroy Te Kooti Arikirangi Te Turuki and his Ringatu guerrilla force then regrouping within the boundaries of the Tuhoe tribe’s forested rohe.
With such a financial inducement it was left to the main Kawanatanga fighting tribes or Native Contingents (NC) – Te Arawa, Ngati Porou, Ngati Kahungunu and lower Whanganui – to launch their own independent expeditions to make this campaign of forest and fern a short one.
Major Ropata Wahawaha NZC led his 370 warriors from the East Coast and entered Te Urewera from that side of the island, while a Whanganui force, comprising 250 men under Major Kepa Te Rangihiwinui NZC, moved inland from Opotiki.
