C.
Washington withdrew his broken army to New Jersey. A bit
later, his forces crossed the Delaware River into Pennsylvania.
By doing this, Washington hoped to draw the British forces
inland. In that way, the British lines would be spread thin
and the British supply lines would be harder to maintain.
However, Washington also knew that American morale was
low. They needed some kind of immediate success against
the British.
