What role did Union General Benjamin F Butler play in US Grant's early plans to defeat the South in 1864?
General US Grant had assigned over 30,000 troops to be under the command of Major General Benjamin F. Butler. Grant' s plan closely resembled the strategy of former General George B. McClellan. Butler would ascend to the James River in Virginia and land to the south of Richmond. Grant believed that Butler's army could easily defeat the small Confederate force left to defend Richmond. Butler was expected to cut Richmond's lines of supply and communications that led to the south of the city. If for some reason Butler could not capture Richmond, he would at least cut off its lines of supply and communications and place the city under siege.
