  The American plan of campaign was that Brown, with Scott and Ripley, should cross the Niagara River and invade Canada. 美国的整个战役计划是这样的:布朗与斯科特和瑞普雷穿过尼亚加拉河进入加拿大,

  Brown crossed the Niagara River and fought two brilliant battles at Chippewa and Lundy's Lane. 布朗越过尼亚加拉河并在齐佩瓦和伦迪小巷获得两次大捷,
  The latter battle was especially glorious because the Americans captured British guns and held them against repeated attacks by British veterans. 其中第二场战斗特别值得骄傲,因为美国人夺取了英国人的枪支,并用它们打退了英国老兵的一次次攻击。
  In the end, however, Brown was obliged to retire. 但是,布朗最终还是不得不撤退。

  Anchored before the town was McDonough's fleet. 麦克道纳夫的舰队驻守在普莱茨堡前面。
