Battle of Trenton
Their first much needed victory was at Trenton, New Jersey. General Washington and his men marched nine miles through sleet and snow to the garrison held by the enemy. These were not British, but mercinaries, fighting solely for money. Germans paid by the British, Hessians. But they were lulled into confidence by the storm, and it was Christmas. So most of the soldiers, to put it honestly, got drunk off of rum. Most were still sleeping it off from the night before, and so the Americans launched a surprise attack on the ill-prepared Hessians. 30 of the Germans were killed, 918 captives taken, and 6 Hessian cannons were taken.
