How did Union General Henry Halleck protect his supply lines as he marched towards Corinth Mississippi?
Union General Henry Halleck had amassed an army of over 100,000 troops in his pursuit to capture or destroy Confederate troops under the command of General Beauregard which were positioned at Corinth, Mississippi. He would then be two states deep into Confederate territory. With his base of supply on the Tennessee River he faced a problem. In order to keep his supply lines open for his large army, he could not rely on a river or a railway. Instead he corduroyed off miles of roadways. This took extra time and benefited the Confederates at Corinth.
