Answer 2

Answer: C) small forces used hit-and-run tactics, which prevented the British from establishing complete control of the south.

Step-by-step explanation:

Although several of the battles of the American Revolution (1775–1783) were conventional, many soldiers, such as David Wooster, Francis Marion, William R. Davie, Shadrach Inman, and Daniel Morgan, used hit-and-run tactics against the British, with very effective results.

The British didn´t expect the combination of those hit and run tactics, with a strong political strategy meant to weaken the determination of the British to fight in America.
