Answer:

Allowing General Greene to drive him toward the coast.

Explanation:

General Cornwallis was able to defeat the continental Army in several occasions in the Southern theatre during the American Revolutionary War. However, after the Battle of Guildford Court House, Cornwallis moved his forces to Wilmington on the coast to resupply. Greene was able to follow him and then cross to North Carolina. He had an army that was better rested and largely undamaged. This allowed Greene to regain most of the territory of the state in the following months.
