The specific name of the army Confederate General Robert E Lee commanded was the Army of Northern Virgina.

Even to the last weeks of the war Confederate President Jefferson Davis clearly demonstrated his power by appointing General Johnston to command the Army of Tennessee.

After taking over for the wounded General Joseph Johnston in 1862, General Robert E. Lee amassed the largest army he would ever command. The 85,000 troops set to defend Richmond was that army. As an aside General McClellan falsely believed that the Confederates had 200,000 troops defending Richmond.
