During the civil war, which leader often had fewer troops available for battle?

Robert E.Lee

Explanation:

Although Robert E. Lee was against secession and enslavement, he surprisingly did not accept Lincoln's invitation to remain in the service of the Union, preferring loyalty to Governor John Letcher of Virginia, and fighting to defend his homeland, family, and friends. He was ordered to leave the United States Army in April (1861) and left to command the forces of Virginia, was appointed Confederate General and sent by Confederate President Jefferson Davis to fight in West Virginia. In the War of Secession it obtained remarkable victories against the North armies in Richmond (1862) and in Chancellorsville (1863). In the same year, he tried to march on Washington, but his troops, inferior to the ones of the north, were defeated in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. On 6 February (1865), he was appointed commander-in-chief of the entire Confederate army.
