In America, King George III's tax collectors were not obeying the law and were meeting with resistance. The king sent solders to enforce tax collection. They had orders to live in unoccupied warehouses and houses. They would declare houses were unoccupied even if people were living in them. They would make the people living in them feed them for free.
So the solders were sent to be tax collection enforcers.
