Washington had his army occupy the heights over Boston. His army could attack the British army from two different directions, so the British had to divide their forces to defend their position. He could see any impending British attack so he did not need to divide his forces. His cannon were placed where they could fire on the British positions. The British cannon would need to shoot uphill and could not shoot that far. General Gage, the British commander, saw the hopelessness of his situation and abandoned Boston.
