The Battle of Second Manassas

INTRODUCTION During the war, two large battle decisions were made near the town of Manassas, Virginia. This will be the second in the second quarter of August 1862. In the second war in Manassas, there were several great leaders from both sides of the war, but I will pay attention to the attitude, exercises and the decisions of the four young generals; General Robert Lee, Thomas Major General Stonewall Jackson, Major General John Pop, George B.

In the early stages of the Civil War, the battle of the antitam was strategically important for both sides. After the league beat the second Manassas or the second bulls, the Allies were not confident in their leadership. Antitum was the most bloody battle that occurred during the war and was driven by more mistakes by sound military decisions. It is not easy to force Confeders' leaders to lose sensitive maneuver orders and to quickly change corps and department planning.

In August 1862, the alliance and the Confederates celebrated their second encounter in Manassas. This battle took place in Prince William County. Unlike the first battle, excitement disappeared, the two sides realized that the war was real. After Johnston was hurt, President Jefferson commanded Robert Lee as commander. As Lee decided to stop the attack, he sent troops through the Chikahominy River and pushed the northern people from Richmond to a position above the James River in a series of crashes. To defeat the North Army under the rule of John Pope, Lee sent Jackson's wing north to the wall of the stone. On 25 August, who needed a clever advantage, Lee began Jackson's wing with a march of more than 50 miles centered on the papal back right wing. Two days later, Jackson's man occupied the papal supply station at the Manassas junction.
