You probably mean Sherman and his March to the Sea.
His supply-line was too long and vulnerable to support a campaign in difficult mountain country, which is what Grant had ordered.
So he decided he could live off the land in Georgia, and lay waste to the infrastructure that supported the Confederates in the field.
The March to the Sea is reckoned to have shortened the war by six months, at almost nil casualties.

One key reason for the Union's strategy of implementing a naval blockade of the South was to cripple the Confederate economy by cutting off access to international trade and essential supplies. This blockade aimed to prevent the South from exporting cotton, which was crucial for funding their war efforts, while simultaneously restricting their ability to import weapons, food, and other necessary resources. By diminishing the South's economic capabilities, the Union sought to weaken their resolve and ability to sustain the war.

Why was March of the sea important to the union war effort?
The March of the Sea, led by General William Tecumseh Sherman in late 1864, was crucial to the Union war effort as it aimed to cripple the Confederacy's economic resources and morale. By marching from Atlanta to Savannah, Sherman employed a strategy of total war, destroying infrastructure, supplies, and civilian property to undermine the South's ability to sustain the fight. This campaign not only significantly weakened Confederate forces but also demonstrated the Union's commitment to a decisive victory, contributing to the eventual end of the Civil War. Sherman's tactics also helped to galvanize support for the Union cause in the North.
