Answer:

Interrupted the supply contact of the Confederate bases

Taking all and any economic or food supply from the Confederate civilians by force.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sherman's March to the Sea was a violent incursion of the union army through Georgia. The tour was led by Sherman and was so brutal that it made "Georgia howl" as Sherman himself described.

Among the actions that make up the destructive nature of this tour and which was crucial to the victory of the union in the American civil war, we can mention the ability of Sherma's army to completely block Georgia's supply bases and began to plunder economic and food resources of the confederate civilians. As a result, Sherman completely destabilized Georgia's economic infrastructure and caused terror in Georgian families, making confederate soldiers fear for the safety of their families and tempted to leave the army and help their families in need.
