n was vastly greater between your forces and Sheridan's than between Jackson's and Shields' at Kernstown.
If it had been possible to reinforce you at Winchester to the extent of 20,000, you would have driven Sheridan into the Potomac.
(4th) Now observe.
After Kernstown, Jackson fell back up the valley, was reinforced by Ewell; the latter was left to hold Banks in check.
Jackson marched with his own force, 4,500 men, took command of Johnston's force of two brigades, 3,500 men, defeated Milroy, 7,000 men, returned centre with Ewell and with a force, now something over 20,000, expelled Banks (who commanded not over 7,000) from the valley.
When threatened by Fremont from the west and Shields from the east-each with about 18,000 men-he retired, keeping them in check, and fought with equal numbers, the battle of Port Republic.
Again. At Chancellorsville Jackson, by order of Lee, by a forced and daring march, attacked the right flank of the Federal Army, surprised and routed it. Y
