His force crossed the delaware into Pennsylvania on December 11th.  He postioned his army along the Delaware to protect the Capital of Philadelphia, while the Congress moved to Baltimore.   Washington's arm,y had been followed by the British lead by General Lord Cornwallis across new Jersey but when Washington had crossed the Delaware. the British Commander General Sir Willaim Howe ordered his troops back to quarters for the winter.

Washington seized the upper hand by ordering a counter attack. On the Night of the 25th December Washington lead a force of 2,400 men back across the Delaware which was now covered with broken Ice. and landed near Trenton. the following morning attacked the Garrison manned by 1400 Hessian troops.  During Street fighting the German Commander Colonel Johann Rall was mortally wounded and another 29 Hessian troops were killed. with 918 taken prisoner. The American losses were very light with only 5 casualties.  Washington occupied Trenton.
