Spotsylvania Sava\u015f\u0131, Amerikan \u0130\u00e7 Sava\u015f\u0131’n\u0131n en kanl\u0131 ve en yo\u011fun sava\u015flar\u0131ndan biriydi. May\u0131s 1864’te birka\u00e7 g\u00fcn boyunca s\u00fcren sava\u015fta, Birlik ve Konfederasyon g\u00fc\u00e7leri Virginia’n\u0131n kontrol\u00fc i\u00e7in \u00e7etin bir m\u00fccadeleye girdi.<\/p>\n\n
Birlik Generali Ulysses S. Grant, kendi Potomac Ordusu i\u00e7in a\u011f\u0131r kay\u0131plar anlam\u0131na gelse bile, Konfederasyon Generali Robert E. Lee’nin Kuzey Virginia Ordusu’nu yok etmeye kararl\u0131yd\u0131. Ancak Lee, Grant’ten daha h\u0131zl\u0131yd\u0131 ve Grant yakla\u015fmadan \u00f6nce birliklerinin d\u00f6rt mil uzunlu\u011funda tahkimatlar in\u015fa etmesi i\u00e7in zaman\u0131nda Spotsylvania \u0130l\u00e7e Adliyesi’ne ula\u015ft\u0131.<\/p>\n\n
Lee’nin savunma hatt\u0131, ters \u00e7evrilmi\u015f bir U \u015feklinde d\u0131\u015far\u0131 do\u011fru k\u0131vr\u0131lan ve “At Nal\u0131” olarak bilinen bir mil uzunlu\u011funda bir \u00e7\u0131k\u0131nt\u0131 i\u00e7eriyordu. At Nal\u0131’n\u0131n \u00f6n\u00fcnde, sava\u015f\u0131n \u015fiddetinin sembol\u00fc haline gelecek b\u00fcy\u00fck bir me\u015fe a\u011fac\u0131 vard\u0131.<\/p>\n\n
12 May\u0131s’ta Birlik birlikleri \u015fafak vakti Konfederasyon mevzilerine sald\u0131rd\u0131 ve At Nal\u0131’na girdi. Lee takviye g\u00f6nderdi ve iki taraf \u015fiddetle sava\u015ft\u0131. Bu, sava\u015f\u0131n k\u0131sa mesafelerde en uzun kesintisiz sava\u015f\u0131yd\u0131 ve \u015fiddetli ya\u011fmur ya\u011f\u0131\u015f\u0131yla ge\u00e7en bir g\u00fcn boyunca ve gece ge\u00e7 saatlere kadar aral\u0131ks\u0131z s\u00fcrd\u00fc.<\/p>\n\n
Birlik sald\u0131r\u0131s\u0131, me\u015fe a\u011fac\u0131n\u0131 k\u0131r\u0131k bir g\u00f6vdeye d\u00f6n\u00fc\u015ft\u00fcren yirmi saatlik patlay\u0131c\u0131 bir karga\u015fan\u0131n ard\u0131ndan geriledi. A\u011fac\u0131n g\u00f6vdesinin etraf\u0131ndaki alan, orada ya\u015fanan katliam\u0131n kan\u0131t\u0131 olarak Kanl\u0131 A\u00e7\u0131kl\u0131k olarak bilinmeye ba\u015fland\u0131.<\/p>\n\n
Grant’in yard\u0131mc\u0131s\u0131 Yarbay Horace Porter, Kanl\u0131 A\u00e7\u0131kl\u0131k’\u0131 ziyaret etti ve \u015f\u00f6yle dedi: “H\u0131zla \u00e7\u00fcr\u00fcyen cesetlerin alt\u0131nda, uzuvlar\u0131n kas\u0131lmalar\u0131 ve v\u00fccutlar\u0131n k\u0131vr\u0131lmas\u0131, hala hayatta olan ve korkun\u00e7 mezara g\u00f6m\u00fclmekten kurtulmak i\u00e7in m\u00fccadele eden yaral\u0131 adamlar\u0131n oldu\u011funu g\u00f6steriyordu.

Spotsylvania Sava\u015f\u0131 bir \u00e7\u0131kmazda sona erdi ve hi\u00e7bir taraf kesin bir zafer elde edemedi. Ancak sava\u015f\u0131n her iki ordu \u00fczerinde de derin bir etkisi oldu. Birlik Ordusu a\u011f\u0131r kay\u0131plar verdi ve Grant’in Lee’nin ordusunu ne pahas\u0131na olursa olsun yok etme stratejisi giderek daha fazla ele\u015ftirildi.<\/p>\n\n
Lee’nin ordusu da sava\u015ftan zay\u0131flad\u0131 ve Richmond’a \u00e7ekilmek zorunda kald\u0131. Spotsylvania Sava\u015f\u0131, Amerikan \u0130\u00e7 Sava\u015f\u0131’nda bir d\u00f6n\u00fcm noktas\u0131 oldu, \u00e7\u00fcnk\u00fc hi\u00e7bir taraf\u0131n h\u0131zl\u0131 ve kolay bir zafer kazanamayaca\u011f\u0131 anla\u015f\u0131ld\u0131.<\/p>\n\n
