What was the souths Civil War strategy?

The main southern strategy was to defeat the attacking Union forces and force the northern states to negotiate.Later in the war, a slightly altered strategy was to take a major northern city (Washington, Baltimore, or even Philadelphia) to force the north to negotiate terms favorable to the south.

The strategy seems to have turned to inflicting as much cost on the Yankees as possible.
