Confederate icon to be, Stonewall Jackson had been a thorn in the side of Union forces based on his forays in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Jackson won at Front Royal and Winchester concerned US President Lincoln. So much so that he withheld McDowell's forces from McClellan's Peninsula campaign. This freed the Union division of James Shields to join General Fremont in the Shenandoah Valley with the purpose of destroying Jackson's army. Lincoln made the error, as often happened of breaking the chain of command and directly giving offensive orders to Union field generals. Jackson knew that Union forces were closing in on him and after several skirmishes, reached Port Republic. Jackson was now a force positioned between Fremont to the north and Shield to the east. This enabled him to take full advantage of the place where the North and South rivers converged to form South Fork of the Shenandoah River. With the use of his artillery and infantry, Jackson prevented the forces of Shields and Fremont to unite. He then could deal with both Union armies separately. The bottomline was that in the course the Battle of Port Republic, he was able to defeat Union forces which had a numerical troop advantage.
This was a demoralizing defeat for the enemy. With his enemies on the run, Jackson would eventually be able to reinforce Robert E. Lee's defenses of Richmond. Few historians believe that Lincoln had any cause for worry that Jackson would endanger Washington DC. His interference in breaking the chain of command would alienate McClellan and more importantly, the key officers of the Army of the Potomac that were fiercely loyal to McClellan.
