Explanation:

The Union used a prolonged siege to cut off supplies and force the Confederate surrender of Vicksburg, Mississippi, in 1863. Total war was a broader strategy used later, ambush was not the primary tactic here, and the Anaconda Plan was the overall Union naval/blockade strategy, not the specific tactic for Vicksburg.

A. siege
