Damug Warfang. He had a large army (1000 troops) who were some of the best fighters for a vermin horde. Also, he had planned to attack Redwall directly before Midge and Tammo convinced him to move the battle elsewhere. Without Cregga and the Long Patrol hares helping them, the Redwall army would likely have been wiped out.
