<human>:  Why did the British lose at the Battle of Lynx?
<bot>: The British lost because they didn’t bring enough food. The British were outnumbered and had to fight on a diet of biscuits and dried peas. The British had a smaller force and fewer cannons. The French had a much larger army, and they brought more food with them. The French had cannons that were much more powerful than the British cannons. The British cannons were not very accurate, and they had trouble hitting the French cannons.
