Did George Washington invent guerrilla warfare?

No, George Washington did not invent guerrilla warfare. Guerrilla warfare has existed way long before George Washington was born. But George Washington was technically a contributor to guerrilla warfare. Most of the times, George Washington fought conventional battles in linear formation during the American Revolution. However, George Washington did sometimes use some form of unconventional strategy and tactics to gain an advantage over the British like harassing the British through skirmishing and making surprise attacks on British garrisons. For example, during the forage war, Washington sent in his irregular troops known as militia with limited continental army support to launch raids and ambushes on British detachments and foraging parties. Washington sent the militia and continental army support to harass the British through small scale engagements by ambush, hit and run raids, and surprise attacks. Next, Washington made a surprise attack on Trenton and captured about 900 enemy combatants while inflicting a bunch of casualties on the enemy garrison. This surprise raid of Trenton was a big turning point of the American revolution and brought a lot of hope to the revolutionary cause. Next, George Washington gave orders to guerrilla fighting general William Maxwell to harass and skirmish with the British at Cooch's bridge. William Maxwell and his fellow patriot insurgents ambushed the British and Germans at Cooch's bridge and both sides received about 30 casualties. Further more, there is the raid of Stony Point. Although George Washington was not present at this battle, he was a contributor of the guerrilla strategy used to take the garrison of Stony Point. Washington ordered the 1500 light infantry personal under the command of Anthony Wayne to empty their muskets and use only bayonets to surprise attack the British garrison. George Washington also encouraged Anthony Wayne to be creative and aggressive in his guerrilla strategy to raid Stony Point. At night, Anthony Wayne and his 1500 light infantry surprise attacked Stony Point and took it with only 15 casualties while the British suffered 20-63 casualties. This raid gave the Patriot insurgents a big increasing morale and hope. Finally, according to some sources on the internet, Washington also funded and created his own personal navy to harass British shipment at the sea. Although George Washington fought a lot conventionally in linear formation against the British, Washington's inspiration, encouragement, and limited use of guerrilla warfare brought a lot of hope and prosperity for the cause of freedom.
