General Edward Braddock led an expedition to Fort Duquesne in 1755 with the intention of capturing the strategically important French fort during the French and Indian War. He took along a large contingent of British regulars, colonial militia, and artillery, including cannons and supplies for a sustained siege. The expedition was notable for its use of heavy wagons to transport artillery, which ultimately slowed their advance. Unfortunately, Braddock's forces were ambushed near the fort, leading to a devastating defeat.
