A His capture of Vicksburg prevented shipments of Confederate supplies from reaching the West.
William T. Sherman's siege and eventual capture of Vicksburg led to the severing of the western half of the confederate states from the east, leading to the South having problems moving supplies and man across, and effectively cut off all trade, weakening the CSA.
