The battle was between a combined French and British force and defending German garrison and resulted in an Allied victory. ==Background== Since the British failure at the First Battle of Garua in August 1914, the German force at Garua, under Captain von Crailsheim, had been afforded considerable freedom of movement. This was demonstrated by a series of incursions into British Nigeria which culminated in the Battle of Gurin in April 1915. This was one of the largest German raids into Nigeria, and shocked the recently appointed Allied commander in the region, Colonel Cunliffe.〔Bryce 1920, p. 416.〕 The foray prompted a renewed British and French attempt to take the German forts at Garua. A British force under the command of Cunliffe arrived in Gurin the day after the battle, later joined by a French force. A 12-pounder gun was borrowed from the British cruiser HMS ''Challenger'' and a 95 mm naval gun from the French〔Farwell, 1986 p.64〕 before the force moved out toward Garua in late April.〔Wood et al. p. 1703.〕 The German forts at Garua had undergone considerable construction and fortification following the repulsion of British forces at the First Battle of Garua, eight months earlier. Von Crailsheim had employed approximately 2,000 native laborers to strengthen his fortifications with barbed wire, earthworks, and dugouts, in preparation for a long siege.〔Hilditch 1915, p. 38.〕〔Dane 1919, p. 180.〕 He also reinforced the garrison with German sailors who had been evacuated from their ships on the colony's rivers.〔Innes et al. 1915, p. 1178.〕 The German fortresses also possessed eleven machine guns and six field guns.〔Innes et al. 1915, p. 1180.〕 In preparation for the siege that von Crailsheim believed to be imminent, the forts stockpiled food, ammunition and other vital supplies. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Second Battle of Garua」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
