What was General Winfield Scott’s strategy for winning the war with Mexico?

Sagot :

Winfield's 'game plan' was to very carefully scout out the locations of Santa Ana's forces, then trying to aneak his army around them, and attacking from the rear. A certain Captain Robert E. Lee was his most important scout and strategist. Winfield's biggest frustration was those of his generals who ignored the above 'game plan', and went charging right into the enemy guns, which Santa Ana had carefully set up to fire on all roads leading to his army.
