What was the Confederate plan of attack at the Battle of Shiloh in 1862?
General Albert S. Johnson led the Confederate Army of the Mississippi. His plan of a surprise attack seemed to be working fine as the Federals were hastily forced into a retreat. Johnston's original plan of attack was to assemble his army in a single battle line with one corps held back as a reserve. His experienced General PT Beauregard offered to Johnston a different formation of attack which Johnston accepted. This involved forming multiple lines of attack. On its surface, there was nothing wrong with Beauregard's plan. The problem that did arise was due to this "last minute" change of plans. The result was that officers were given command over units that they were unfamiliar with. The advance of the lines of attack were not properly coordinated which hampered the effectiveness of the attack.
