Why did Henry Knox go to Fort Ticonderoga?

He went there by order of Washington to get up the transport of artillery pieces which had to be consigned to the Continental Army for the Boston siege's purposes. The operation was an outstanding masterpiece of logistics for that time. Short after the cannons were deployed, the British decided to evacuate Boston to avoid the annihilation of their army.

Where did Washington troops go after being defeated?

At several points in the Revolution, it seemed likely that the American patriots would lose the war. In the fall and winter of 1776, Washington's army nearly collapsed. Soldiers' terms of enlistment were set to expire at the end of the year. But on Christmas eve, Washington's troops crossed the Delaware River from Pennsylvania into New Jersey, and defeated the British forces at Trenton and Princeton, and restored a sense of optimism.
