Yorktown Epic FAIL!!!! #2

So the British had so many fails! But one of the most non smart things the British could have done is have a base on the peninsula of Chesapeake Bay! 

The Americans were smart enough to ask our French friends to come and help us in the super easy battle against them!!

So we kinda surrounded them by SEA and LAND and just like that WAH BAM CHRISTMAS HAM we defeated the British!!!!!

Hudson river fail

The British was attempting to take over the Hudson River Valley. If successful, they would cut new England off from ALL the other colonies. Three groups of British were supposed to show at the Hudson but only one group showed, making that one group feel like LOSERS. Like FAILURES. Which they kind of were. That one British group got totally OWNED by the Americans, proving this EPIC British fail.

British Fails at Lexington and Concord By: Garrett Nolan

 FAIL #1-Nobody knows who fired the first shot at Lexington, this was called the "shot heard 'round the world."

FAIL #2- A war that Britain didn't want to happen started.

FAIL #3- After they won in Lexington the British went to Concord where they got OWNED by the Americans who found out their plans.

EPIC FAIL-   The British was supposed to be the best army in the world, but they had lost a battle to an inexperienced group of colonists who were supposed to be loyal to Britain.

British Fails at the Battle of Trenton By: Garrett Nolan

 At the battle of Trenton Washington's army crossed the Delaware River and did a surprise attack on the Hessian army. Twenty-two Hessian soldiers were killed and eighty-three were wounded, while only TWO Americans died and FIVE were wounded. For the British that was an EPIC FAIL.

Britain's Strategy FAIL

Failure in Fighting

British were FAILURES when it came to the battlefield:

•  Fighting old-school way of standing in a line
• Americans learned the AMAZING guerrilla style of fighting
• Americans were from DaBomb.Com
• They got powned when Francis Marion's men cut the British supply line using guerrilla warfare
• Slow to realize the strategy
• FAILED LIKE LOSERS

Basically, the British were complete and total DISAPPOINTMENTS.

The British fail at Yorktown

The surrender at Yorktown was a MASSIVE fail for the British. General Charles Cornwallis retreated to Yorktown after the battle at the Guilford Courthouse. It allowed him to be EASILY surrounded and owned, because Yorktown was a peninsula that could be surroundeed and taken with ease.

In September 1781 16,000 French and American troops and 36 French warships attacked Cornwallis and over 7,500 British and Hessian troops at Yorktown. Basically the Americans went all out on DESTROYING the British in this battle.The battle lasted ten days before the British surrendered. FAIL!

The Battles at Saratoga

    

The British got completely owned in the Battles at Saratoga. While the British general John Burgoyne was celebrating and slowly traveling, the Americans were blocking roads and destroying all the supplies the British could have used. They were also expecting reinforcements and got none. By the time the British got to Saratoga they were tired and short of men. The Americans surrounded them and took 5.700 prisoners. So basically the British FAILED super hard at Saratoga.

British fail in the sea

John Paul Jones was fighting a massive battle against the British warship the Seripis. The Seripis was locked in battle with the Bonhomme Richard and the Seripis blew up the front of Johns ship. The British captain on the Seripis asked John Paul if he wanted to surrender and John Paul said "I have not yet begun to fight."  John realized his ship was sinking so his crew RODE HOME ON THE SERIPIS.

Fail at Bunker Hill

The British had FAILED even after they WON!

They were still an utter FAILURE because:

• More than 1,000 British soldiers were killed or wounded
• They had fought against only 400 American militia casualties
• That means; more than double the ALIVE American army was almost equal to the number of DEAD British soldiers
• All of this means- THE WORLD'S MOST POWERFUL ARMY HAD COMPLETELY FAILED.
