I know there are only a few of us into the Civil War, but have been wondering about something.
If Jackson had not been mortally wounded and had have been at the head of his famed 2nd Corps, would Lee with the 37 Inf Brigades allowed him by Jeff Davis and considering the difficulties involved in moving large numbers, still have wanted at least three Corps to invade the North? He took advantage(if that is possible to say after the tragedy of Jackson’s death) of creating a third Corps.
I believe he probably wanted more than two, but then would Ewell or Hill Have got it,or would he have stuck to the tried and tested Longstreet/Jackson combination and left those two to detach Divisions for independent duties, eg marching on Harrisburg, as they saw fit?
