The correct answer is B) destroy Union artillery with a barrage.

In the Battle of Gettysburg, General Lee hoped to protect Pickett's charge by destroying Union artillery with a barrage.

Pickett's charge was the last part of the Battle of Gettysburg, during the third day of hostilities on July 3, 1863. It was the assault of the Confederate troops against the troops of General George Meade at Cemetery Ridge. But the plan didn't work out well. The Confederated Army lost 6,000 soldiers in the attempt. It was a sad day for General Lee and the Confederates that had lost on one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War.
