iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

The Battle of Honey Springs is considered to be the most important battle fought in the Indian Territory during the Civil War. It was largest military clash in the Indian Territory and marked the beginning of the end of Confederate control in the Indian Territory. General Cooper was amassing his army at the Confederate commissary depot at Honey Springs. General Blunt and his Union troops intercepted Cooper’s army on July 17, 1863. Blunt was worried about the growing Confederate threat at Honey Springs and decided to attack first. The First Kansas Colored Volunteer Infantry Regiment prevented the advance of the Texas army with their sharpshooting. The Confederates had faulty gunpowder from Mexico, while the Union had more cannons and better artillery. This battle was significant because the Confederates lost control of the Indian Territory north of the Arkansas River and the Union gained an easy route to Fort Smith.
