September 1759 CE
Governor de Vaudreuil, who will later write to his government and put the full blame for the French rout on the deceased Montcalm, decides to abandon Quebec and the Beauport shore, ordering all of his forces to march west and eventually join up with Bougainville, leaving the garrison in Quebec under the command of Jean-Baptiste Nicolas Roch de Ramezay.
Meanwhile, the British, first under the command of Townshend and later with Murray in charge, settle in to besiege the city in conjunction with Saunders' fleet.
Within days, on September 18, de Ramezay, Townshend and Saunders sign the Articles of Capitulation of Quebec and the city is turned over to British control.
The remaining French forces position themselves on the Jacques-Cartier River west of the city.
