A bushwhack refers to an ambush or surprise attack, often in a rugged or wooded area. The term originally comes from the practice of cutting through dense vegetation to navigate or surprise an enemy. In a more general sense, it can also describe any unexpected or unconventional approach to a situation. Additionally, in outdoor contexts, it may refer to hiking through unmarked trails or dense underbrush.

What is a word opposite of attack?

The synonym for attack is charge (go to thesaurus.com for more); the antonym is protect. Attack: assault, harry, raid, pounce on, advance, jump, bushwhack, mug, shoot, bomb, stab, offense, pitch in. I think antonyms would be more like words for retreat or defense: retreat, defend, fortify, entrench, rebuff, fend off, armor. Protect would probably be alright, come to think of it.
