    The correct answers are: He wanted to punish the people of the South and he wanted to boost morale in the Northern states.

    Sherman's March to the Sea and its scorched earth policy was a ploy by Sherman to make the war as uncomfortable as possible for the treasonous South. Sherman wanted the South to feel pain as a way to encourage them to quit the war.
