The British hired mercenaries during wars, such as the American Revolutionary War, to bolster their military forces and compensate for troop shortages. Mercenaries provided additional manpower without the political complexities of conscription and were often motivated by financial gain. This strategy allowed Britain to maintain a fighting force while minimizing domestic dissent and resistance to military service. Additionally, mercenaries brought specialized skills and experience that could be advantageous in battle.
They hire them because King George III was determined to defeat the Americans.
