Annapolis, Maryland, in the Eastern Theater and heavily reinforced. On December 7, Burnside organized a pursuit using soldiers from the IX and XXIII Corps led by Major General John Parke; this effort reached Rutledge and Bean's Station before halting. Major General John G. Foster replaced Burnside as commander of the Army of the Ohio on December 11, but he was injured by falling off his horse and relieved on February 9, 1864. The Knoxville siege cost the Federals 92 killed, 394 wounded, and 207 missing, for a total of 693 casualties. See table below. The Confederates counted 198 killed, 850 wounded, and 248 missing, for a total of 1,296 casualties. McLaws' division lost 782, while Jenkins' division lost 514 men. The Confederate cavalry never made a casualty report. Longstreet still hoped to defeat the Union forces in the field and then compel them to abandon Knoxville. Finding that most of Sherman's troops had left the area, he planned to envelop Shackelford's cavalry at Bean's Station. The result was the indecisive Battle of Bean's Station on December 14. Longstreet mounted more forays into the Union-held areas of East Tennessee. On December 29, 1863, the Battle of Mossy Creek was a cavalry fight. On January 17, 1864, the Battle of Dandridge resulted in the Federals pulling back toward Knoxville. Longstreet's forces advanced as far as Strawberry Plains by early February, but finally withdrew to winter quarters at Russellville. Longstreet's corps was recalled to fight in the Eastern Theater on April 11. Throughout the campaign, both sides suffered from lack of supplies. The Federals in East Tennessee were at the end of a long railroad supply line extending from Nashville south to Chattanooga and then northeast to Knoxville. However, the worst of Knoxville's supply problems were resolved by March 1. One Confederate veteran of the campaign recalled that, "all the boys used to say that all East Tennessee lacked of being hell was a roof over it". Casualties Union losses Click show to display table.
