Best Answer

The second battle of Bull Run took place from August 29 to September 1, 1862. It was a victory for Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. It was fought in the same area as the first battle of Bull Run.

The Confederate victory paved the way for Lee's invasion of Maryland. The new Union army, the Army of Virginia was commanded by Major General John Pope. His forces numbered about 45,000 troops. He attempted a move southward in a campaign to capture the Confederate capital of Richmond.

Confederate general Stonewall Jackson attacked Pope's forces and succeeded in defeating the Union army.
