The general told them to fire and then move behind his troops. It would look like they were running away. The British would chase them and run right into Morgan’s men. When the British troops marched forward, the militiamen followed the plan. The Patriots killed many British officers, and then they moved out of the way. Some of the British retreated, and the rest moved ahead as General Morgan had said they would. Many were killed and the Americans won the battle.</p><p>17.
