The Battle of Camden in South Carolina was a lopsided victory for the British during the American Revolutionary War. Despite the proliferation of dysentery among his men, Continental General Horatio Gates chose to engage British General Charles Cornwallis’s force on the morning of August 16, 1780. The illness depleted the Patriot advantage in troop numbers, and the British pressed forward aggressively as the sole side in possession of bayonets. With the encounter resulting in nearly 2,000 Patriots killed or taken prisoner and heavy losses of artillery, Gates was removed from command and replaced by Nathaniel Greene.

Kruka [31]

Another way your question could be framed is “why do nations use imperialism on weaker countries?” and the simple answer is there are several motives such as ethnocentric purposes, religion, access to natural resources, expanding power, etc. Specifically people resort to imperialism on weaker countries because they are vulnerable to accept whatever helps the people survive in times of unrest.
