Answer:

They laid siege to the city for many days.

Explanation:

Once Grant arrived at his destination, he found the city too strong to assault, so he had his men build trenches and laid siege to the city.

The siege began in May of 1863 and lasted until July 4. With no hope of reinforcements, and his men starving, Confederate General John Pemberton finally surrendered the city.
