Answer (2)
Convinced england to back the south and attack and defeat washington.
Lee's invasion of the North aimed to stretch the Union's military resources by forcing them to redirect troops away from other battles and to persuade European powers, particularly Britain and France, to support the Confederacy through a significant Northern victory. This dual approach sought both immediate military advantages and long-term political support. Such efforts highlighted Lee's understanding of the interconnectedness of military success and diplomatic recognition during the Civil War.
