700 soldiers of the British Army had been ordered to Concord to take possession of a rebel arms depot. The rebels had been tipped off and were waiting for them.

There is a POSSIBILITY that the famous "shot fired heard round the world" that began the battle and the war was actually a hunter in the nearby forest which triggered nervous soldiers into battle.

Did battle of concord happen after battle of Lexington?
Yes. The Battle of Lexington and Concord are often referred to as a single battle due to the proximity of their locations and the fact that they happened consecutively on the same day. The Battle of Lexington, which occurred prior to hostilities at Concord, was much more of a minor skirmish than a true battle, in the traditional sense.Lexington was fought between members of the Lexington Militia and British soldiers. Despite the belief by many that Lexington "Minutemen" were present that day, Lexington actually had noMinutemen, as they could not afford them. Minuteman were members of a local militia who were usually the most fit and best trained members of a militia. Towns paid Minutemen to drill much more frequently than regular militia members and to be "ready" at a minutes notice, hence their name, to respond to trouble, usually Indian attacks.The Lexington Militia, having notice of the Regular's or "Redcoats", as they referred to the British soldiers, not "the British", (remember the colonists at this point considered themselves British citizens) pending arrival gathered at Buckman Tavern in the very early morning hours of April 19, 1775, adjacent to the Lexington Green, a common area at the center of the town. After several hours of waiting for the Regulars, word of their imminent arrival reached them and they mustered in formation on the Green. The Regulars approached the Green and with weapons at the ready, ordered the "rebels" to drop their weapons. History will probably never know which side fired the first shot, or shots, but soon thereafter eight militia members laid dead or dying, with others injured. The Regulars only suffered one minor injury there. After composing their troops and re-establishing order, the British force proceeded to the town of Concord.

Why did the Concord skirmish happen?
In 1775, on what turned out to be the first day of the American War for Independence, the Concord "skirmish" happened mainly for three reasons. First, word had spread quickly of the one-sided battle at Lexington earlier in the day, and colonists were eager to make a better showing against the British troops. Second, patriotic fever was running very high in New England, and the British march to Concord came as a challenge that the local patriots were no longer willing (or perhaps even able) to ignore. Third, a large number of patriots had gathered at Concord, and the odds of a favorable battle were in their favor.
