What is Grant's plan for attacking Vicksburg?

History
1 answer:
o-na [289]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: An extended siege.

Explanation:

General Ulysses S. Grant had first tried to take Vicksburg in 1862 but failed and had to try again because Vicksburg was a very important town that sat on the Mississippi river and would give the Union control of the river if it fell.

After Grant defeated General John C. Pemberton close to Vicksburg, Pemberton retreated to Vicksburg where he was trapped by Grant who fended off attacks to liberate the city and constantly bombarded it from Union positions.

Ordering his soldiers to build 15 miles of trenches around Vicksburg, Grant was able to starve the city for 47 days such that Pemberton was forced to surrender to the Union.

Which of the following statements describes how the crisis in Berlin in 1948–1949 was concluded?
sp2606 [1]

The correct answer is C) The blockade was lifted, and Berlin remain divided.

After World War II, Germany was split up into four different zones by the Allied Powers. The US, Soviet Union, France, and Great Britain each controlled a piece of Germany. Along with this, the four countries split up control of the capital city (Berlin). At this time, the Soviet Union caused tensions by blocking off East Berlin (controlled by the Soviet Union) from West Berlin (controlled by other 3 Allied Powers). This was ultimately resolved after the Soviet Union lifted the blockade. However, East and West Berlin would continue to be divided for roughly the next 4 decades.
