Chapter 7
At the crack of dawn, the army got ready to battle. Loading his gun, Spot was confident that they would win and that he would kill Tavington. He then rode and caught up with Colonel Burwell.
"Harry, will you give this to my family?"
He took the letter and nodded.
"Thank you, Harry."
Stopping at the closest wide-open field, the British troops were assembling. They had over 3,000 men, just in the front column! The sound of cannons hitting the ground with great force could now be heard. As the two sides got closer to eachother, the American's stopped.
"MAKE READY!" "TAKE AIM!" "FIRE!!!!!!"
British me then went down, one by one in the first row. They then fired their shots and some of our men went down. We fired once again, but then the Green Dragoons rode in on us. "RETREAT!!!!!"
We all ran like hell! Some of our men died from the cannon strikes. The redcoats then decided to charge us. They made a big mistake!
At the bottom of the hill, Colonel Burwell's troops, both infantry and cavalry shot at the charging redcoats. Then, the malitia and some of the regulars shot. We killed almost every one of the redcoats that charged us. We then charged at them, and fought them. I then saw the head General of the British troops, took out my pistol, and shot him in the chest. Then, I saw him.
Colonel Tavington, on his horse, charged at me. Throwing his sword to cut of my head, I ducked, and shoved my bayonet into his horse. He flew off and I took my pistol out. I only had one shot left. I loaded it, aimed, and shot. I only hit him in the shoulder, though. I thought I had failed. He then took his sword and while I was on my knees swung it at my head. I ducked and shoved a knife into his chest. I left it in him and took my bayonet off of my gun.
"My friend, father, and beloved wife were better people that you'll ever be!"
And with that, he shoved the bayonet in his throat. I had won the battle that I had been fighting for so long. Cornwallis then surrendered, and we won the fight. The fight for a free country which we still have today!
