Was Siege the way to Win the Civil War?
Siege was a terrible thing. It made people starve and lose their supplies. But, the Union needed it to win the war. Even though I would never agree with the idea of siege I think it was necessary to help the Union win the war. The Union needed to end the fighting and take power. The Union surrounded the Confederates cutting off their ability to get food and other necessary resources for the civilians and soldiers. In the Battle of Vicksburg, Ulysses S. Grant used siege to make the Confederates surrender. Despite the fact that siege is a terrible thing the Union needed it to help them get closer to winning the war.

ReplyDeleteI agree that these are bad because the people are innocent.
ReplyDeleteI agree with what you are saying about siege. Without it the union probably would not have won but that does not mean you should do it.
ReplyDeleteI agree because I do think that siege is wrong, but at the same time it helped the Union win.
