The correct response is: **The Confederacy could no longer get supplies from its western states.**
The surrender at Vicksburg, which took place on July 4, 1863, effectively split the Confederacy in two along the Mississippi River. This division disrupted supply lines and made it difficult for the western Confederate states to support those in the east.
