The overall Confederate commander in the South-East was Joseph E. Johnston, based in Carolina. The commander of the only sizeable Confederate army in Georgia was General Hardee, who did not provide much resistance to Sherman during the march to the sea, but occupied Savannah, where Sherman expected quite a big battle, possibly destructive to that gracious city. In the event, Hardee escaped across the river into South Carolina, where Sherman followed him about a month later.
