I believe that siege is a very smart and necessary war strategy. There are no rules of war, there for siege is a great, efficient way to capture enemy troops and territory. Siege worked well, since the Union ended up gaining land while using it in Georgia and Vicksburg. Siege worked well and there for it was both smart and creative to use siege against the Confederates.
For the first time in like forever I actually agree with you
ReplyDeleteI don't agree with you, because siege and total war ruined many lives for people. People who weren't even in the Civil War, but just bystanders were also involved in it. If you were one of the people who was just a bystander, and suddenly, a Union solider just comes and sets your house on fire? How would you feel? Think about that.
ReplyDeleteI see your point Tracey good point
