Editing Battle of Chancellorsville (section)

===Confederate reaction===
The Confederate public had mixed feelings about the result, joy at Lee's tactical victory tempered by the loss of their most beloved general, Stonewall Jackson. The death of Jackson caused Lee to make the long-needed reorganization of the Army of Northern Virginia from two large corps into three, under [[James Longstreet]], [[Richard S. Ewell]], and [[A.P. Hill]]. The new assignments for the latter two generals caused some command difficulties in the upcoming [[Gettysburg campaign]], which began in June. Of more consequence for Gettysburg, however, was the supreme confidence that Lee gained from his great victory at Chancellorsville, that his army was virtually invincible and would succeed at anything he asked it to do.<ref>Eicher, pp. 489; Cullen, pp. 49–50, 69.</ref>

Lee later wrote "At Chancellorsville we gained another victory; our people were wild with delight—I, on the contrary, was more depressed than after Fredericksburg; our loss was severe, and again we gained not an inch of ground and the enemy could not be pursued.”<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://leadershipcenter.wharton.upenn.edu/research/gettysburg-lee-moves-north-measuring-performance-effectiveness/|title = Gettysburg: Lee Moves North Measuring Performance and Effectiveness|date = January 15, 2015}}</ref>
