lost british protection
No, the British promised land, but the Native Americans didn't get anything.
Most Native Americans sided with the British in the War of 1812. American settlers were encroaching on their land, and Native Americans had already been in conflict with them before the war. The British also made efforts in the peace treaty to preserve the rights of the Native Americans, however these were mostly ignored.

He wanted Native Americans to work together to defend their land!
Well they allied with the British because the British promised to give the Natives land in return. In a sense, the British persuaded/bribed the Natives into being allies with them.

The American Indians
Tecumseh was a Native American chief who was angry because the Americans used trading posts to put his tribe and many others into debt, thus forcing them to sell their land to the Americans.When the War of 1812 broke out there were two sides: the Americans, who had practically no allies, and the British who were allied with Canada and Spain. Tecumseh did something that no other Native American had ever done before: he united all of the tribes and allied with Britain in an attempt to reclaim their land.
