General John Wolfe had a bold plan to capture Quebec; he knew that Montcalm only had a few troops guarding the cliff

because he thought it was too steep.

Late at night, Wolfe ordered the British troops to row boats to the foot of the cliff

and climb up to the top.

In the morning, Montcalm woke up to a surprise. 4000 British troops were

assembled and ready for battle.
