The Battle of the Bogue was fought between British and Chinese forces at the Boca Tigris, China, on 12–13 November 1856 during the Second Opium War. The British captured the forts in the Wangtong Islands on 12 November and the forts in Anunghoy Island the next day.<br/><br/> On 12 November, the British squadron attacked the two Wangtong Island forts, which were fully manned and had over 200 guns mounted. Stinkpots were thrown at the British who first entered the forts. The Chinese, who stood to their guns up to the moment of the British entering the embrasures, had boats ready to escape. The forts were captured after what Seymour called a 'considerable, though ill-directed' resistance of about an hour.<br/><br/> The British casualties were one killed and five wounded on board HMS Nankin. On 13 November, the British attacked and captured the Anunghoy forts, which mounted 210 guns. Seymour reported that although 'some resistance' was offered, there were no British casualties.
