| I'm falling onto Chancellorsville here as I think of this. I think Jackson might have suggested Longstreet attack as Lee had ordered but then he take his corps and try a flanking attack. Have Meades attention focused on his center so he doesn't expect an attack on the right or left flanks. I don't know, I'm probably off the mark there. But my thinking is that Jackson might have believed that after two days one of the flanks might have been weakened to strengthen the other. Last edited on Wed Oct 26th, 2011 09:21 am by Hellcat
