Attack on HBC (1686 - 1713) Meanwhile, the French fur traders decided they could not stand by while the English grabbed up all the furs in Rupert’s Land. In 1686, a French soldier named Pierre de Troyes led a bold attack on the British forts along the bay. The French surprised the British by travelling from the interior by canoe, instead of arriving in the bay by ship. De Troyes and his troops easily captured Rupert House, Moose Factory, and Albany Factory on James Bay. The British were caught off-guard. T (1 magg 1686 anni – 1 magg 1713 anni)
