When the Missouri Division pulls out of Northwest Arkansas to reinforce Grant's efforts against Vicksburg, Hindman sees an opportunity forming for his army to get back to Missouri. With only Blunt left in the region to defend the border, Hindman draws up a plan to bag the Kansas Division and use Fayetteville as a springboard to march back into Missouri.
