Isaac Brock had his militia units wear discarded uniforms of his regular troops, convincing the Americans there were more regulars than there were and had his troops very visibly march into entrenchments around the fort, only to sneak away out of sight and march back in taking up different positions, repeatedly. During meals, in view of the American garrison, troops would line up to receive a bowl of beans, move back into the camp out of sight, dump the beans in another pot, and rejoin the line. Tecumseh likewise paraded his entire force of roughly 600 warriors multiple times through a gap in the trees where the Americans inside the fort could see them, convincing the defenders they were facing thousands of Native warriors in addition to thousands of British regulars. General Hull, the American commander, and his troops were so thoroughly conned that minutes into a British bombardment, Hull surrendered Detroit. Total casualties of the battle were 7 killed on the American side and 2,493 captured, while the British had 2 wounded.
