First off, in WV Van Dorn's cavalry was able to take Grafton and its depot! This has earned him a promotion. JEB gained some senority as well! His orders are to sit tight, to burn the depot and cut the rails, while getting back his cohesion. He is ordered to retreat if engaged.
Porter's division, who held Christianburg two weeks ago has joined with Rousseau's command at Covington. They may be expecting an attack. A garrison has been left at Christianburg so I don't think soundoff meant to pull out. However, with Van Dorn's capture of Grafton he may have to.
I see him doing one of three things. Retreat to Charleston, WV, or retreat towards graton, burning the depots in the two cases. He may also opt to stay put making a move farther east with the main army. In any case Jackson has given DH Hill's division to Lee. Jackson will ride down the rails between Charlottesville and Covington and hit Rousseau's command with 5 divisions.
I'm hoping he is pulling out, waiting 5 days to burn the depot, in which case Jackson will hit him within 3 days of that. To cover the move, Smith's corps will leave a cavalry cover at Culpepper and move by rail to Charlottesville to ensure Jackson won't be cut out of any action in the next month. Jackson also gave Lee 1 of his 6 divisions.
ASJ's army of TN is massed just in and around Nashville. I'm going to be able to throw over 7 divisions at the forces across the Cumberland at Gallatin, with a combined power 3000+. I'm hoping ASJ's 'surpriser trait' comes in handy here. Holme's corps and Johnson's corps will hit Thomas on day 5. After smashing Thomas they will move onto Bowling Green, where Thomas hopefully will retreat, to massacre McClellan and the remnants of Thomas. That's the plan anyway...
Further west in KY, a dire situation is developing. It seems that Paducah was definately not evacuated. Lyon's division has seized the heights at Columbus. Rosecrans corps, with two divisions are available to north at Paducah. Bory, with a small corps of just two bdes, is not happy. I'll sit tight for a turn and maybe ASJ's move in middle TN will halt this advance.
If it doesn't Bory may have to retreat to Memphis with his little army.
In MO, JJ's army is massed at Warren. There is no sign of Jeff Davis' federal forces anywhere in the area. It looks like JJ may need to send Polk to TN, to reinforce Bory. The army is ordered to Springfield to refit and make ready for a possible move across the Mississippi.
