total war.
appomattox.
southern surrender.
march to the sea.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• "Total war" is a strategy where all resources (military, economic, civilian) of an enemy are targeted. During the Civil War, this approach was used to cripple the enemy's ability to fight by destroying resources.
• "Appomattox" is the location of the Confederate surrender, not a strategy.
• "Southern surrender" is the event of the South giving up, not a strategy.
• "March to the Sea" (Sherman's March) was a specific campaign under the total war strategy, but the broader strategy of targeting resources is "total war".

Answer:

total war.
