The correct answer is B) Vicksburg was the last Confederate stronghold on the Mississippi River and its capture would cut the South in two.

The capture of Vicksburg became an important objective for the North because  Vicksburg was the last Confederate stronghold on the Mississippi River and its capture would cut the South in two.

That is why this victory represented a great win for the Union Army and a devastating loss for the Confederate troops.

Ulysses Grant, a renowned general for the Union army, was the great winner of the Siege of Vicksburg that divided the Confederacy.

After four months of intense fighting, the Union captured Vicksburg on July 4, 1863.
