Answer:

Option A.

Explanation:

Over the control of the Missouri River and territory in northwest Arkansas, is the right answer.

The Battle of Pea Ridge that was fought on March 7 – 8, 1862 is also identified as the "Battle of Elkhorn Tavern". This battle took place near Leetown, Arkansas. In this battle, Brig. Gen. Samuel R. Curtis headed the federal forces. His force marched south from central Missouri, forcing Confederate troops into northwestern Arkansas. The Confederate Force under the leadership of Maj. Gen. Earl Van Dorn ejected a Confederate counter-offensive in the hope to regain Missouri and northern Arkansas. But on the very first day, Curtis defended the attack of the Confederate Force and drove off the force of Van Dorn out the battlefield on the second day.
