After the Battle of Shiloh, Union General Ulysses S. Grant, in coordination with General William Tecumseh Sherman, pressured Confederate General P.G.T. Beauregard to evacuate Corinth, Mississippi. The Union forces launched a series of maneuvers and attacks that effectively surrounded the city, leading to Beauregard's decision to retreat in May 1862 to avoid encirclement and potential capture. This strategic Union victory secured a crucial rail junction for the North.
