Answer:

The Anaconda Plan

Step-by-step explanation:

The Anaconda Plan was the Union's plan to "strangle" the South by enacting a naval blockade, gaining control of the Mississippi River, and gradually increasing pressure on the South by land and sea. The Anaconda Plan was the long-term strategy of Union General Winfield Scott to cripple the South.
