The answer is A. The
North demanded that federal troops march to Virginia after the shelling of Fort
Sumter. They hope that this would end
the rebellion. In response to their
demands, General Irvin McDowell led Union troops to Bull Run where they faced a
Confederate army that was led by General P.G.T. Beauregard. The Union planned a surprise attack on the Confederate
flank. Though poorly managed by officers in the field it put the Confederates
at a disadvantage. The Union troops were
too slow to take positions and reinforcements led by Confederate General Joseph
Johnston arrived and the tide turned against the Union. At the time
Confederates led by General Thomas Jackson stood firm in fighting the enemy and
earned the nickname “Stonewall’. A
counterattack by Confederate forces forced the Union troops to withdraw. The
result was a victory for the Confederates.

Answer: Confederate reinforcements won the battle and forced the Union troops to retreat. give me a heart and stars, bc it is right!

Explanation: The First Battle of Bull Run (Manassas) was significant for many reasons. It was the first battle of the war and one of many ill-executed Union attempts on Richmond. Though Union troops seemed to be winning early in the battle, Confederate reinforcements turned the tide. The Union soldiers were eventually forced to retreat. It was also the battle which earned Thomas Jackson the nickname "Stonewall" when he refused to back down under Sherman's barrage.
