Battle of Bloody Run 1

Another force of English soldiers was ordered to attempt to reinforce Fort Detroit after the first group of English reinforcements were defeated. Some 280 English soldiers were ordered to go to the Detroit region. Just before the 280 English reinforcements made it to Detroit, the Anishinabek spotted their approach then attempted to prevent the new English reinforcements from entering Detroit. In "The Bloody Run Battle of 1763" (the first Bloody Run Battle) that followed, around 15 English soldiers were killed or wounded but they successfully reached and then entered, Detroit, which greatly upset the Anishinabe leader Pontiac, and other top ranking leaders of the Anishinabek.
