964:. Grant was anxious at this turn of events, fearing that McClernand might supersede him, so he wired Halleck. Halleck reassured Grant that this will not occur. Halleck and Grant then maneuvered McClernand into a disadvantageous position by drawing a large amount of the troops he had raised for his expedition into Grant's army. In December, McClernand wired Lincoln for clearance to go south and assume command of his force, now that he had raised a substantial force for the effort. The order did not come, but he soon received news of what was happening in Memphis. McClernand was outraged and quickly wired Lincoln and Stanton of what was happening, Stanton attempted to reassure him, and told him that Grant had received orders to reform the troops of the department into four army Corps, and that McClernand was going to command one of them. This was a setback and a downgrade from the earlier promised independent command. Orders were simultaneously dispatched from the war department to Grant ordering him to assign McClernand as Corps commander. Grant obliged and wired McClernand in December 18 that preparations were finished and his corps was ready to proceed and "form part of the expedition against Vicksburg". This wire was, by intention, delayed for several days, so that McClernand had received the communique when the expedition, under command of general Sherman, had already departed southwards and did not wait for McClernand. McClernand then proceeded to pursue the expeditionary force in order to assume his promised command; the force had contained the two army Corps, most of which he had raised by his effort, included his own corps and another corps that would fall under his command due to his seniority. McClernand's force under Sherman continued up the Mississippi river, racing to attack Vicksburg - under the assumption that the complete silence from Grant's force meant that he had plunged deeply into Mississippi. Sherman attempted to attack Vicksburg by attempting to storm nearly invincible Confederate positions at the Chickasaw Bayou & Bluffs, a short distance north of Vicksburg near the mouth of the Yazoo river. This attack was made in December 29 and was swiftly defeated, with Sherman's army suffering severe losses. The angry McClernand subsequently arrived and took command, issuing a proclamation that he would command all the troops in the expedition, and the force would be renamed to Army of the Mississippi.

Grant had to order the camp burned to stop the plundering and restore order to the troops. At
Columbus, Polk got word of the battle and first sent reinforcements, then crossed the river himself with more reinforcements. After about one-half hour of unopposed disorder at the camp, the Confederate reinforcements along with reformed elements of Pillow's regiments routed the Union force, sending them retreating toward their gunboats, which provided covering fire. McClernand had directed artillery placement which also facilitated the Union force's retreat. During the withdrawal McClernand suffered a grazing head wound. When reaching the shore, McClernand acted promptly to cover the boarding of the gunboats and to rescue a Union regiment which had been left behind. The Union troops, including Grant as the last to board a boat, narrowly escaped.

McClernand's division, whose flank was not sufficiently covered, was struck by a surprise attack in the early morning on February 15, 1862, the third day of the battle, in bitterly cold weather. By 7:00 a.m., the Confederates in line of battle and covered by artillery attacked McClernand's position, which McClernand thought he would still have time to adjust without Confederate movement in the frigid weather. Within an hour of the Confederate attack, the Confederates had cleared Union cavalry from their front and outflanked Colonel

Grant and Halleck machinated against McClernand, and most of the troops he raised in Illinois for his expedition were instead diverted to Grant's army without McClernand's knowledge. Later on, McClernand's own expeditionary force departed southwards before his arrival, by design, commanded by General William T. Sherman, an ally of Grant. McClernand chased after his expedition southwards and assumed command, designating this expeditionary force as the Army of the Mississippi. Grant was later able to neutralize McClernand's independent effort after it conducted an expedition to capture the vital

After a bloody and unsuccessful assault against the Vicksburg entrenchments (ordered by Grant), McClernand wrote a congratulatory order to his corps, which also disparaged the efforts of the other corps. This was published in the press, contrary to an order of the department and another of Grant that official papers were not to be published. McClernand was relieved of his command on June 19, 1863, two weeks before the fall of Vicksburg, and was replaced by Major General
1074:. From April 27, 1864, through May 1, 1864, McClernand returned to the field to command the detachment of two divisions from the XIII Corps participating in the Red River Campaign. He resigned from the Army on November 30, 1864. McClernand rode on the funeral train of President Lincoln from Washington to Springfield Illinois, which departed from Washington on April 23, 1865, and arrived in Springfield on May 3, 1865. There were eight divisions in Lincoln's funeral procession on May 4, 1865. McClernand was at the front of the second division which preceded the hearse.

He raised the McClernand Brigade from southern Illinois, an area of mixed sentiments with respect to preservation of the Union. The brigade was placed in the Western Department which was under the command of Major General

Grant's order relieving him ordered him to go to any place in Illinois and contact the War Department for new orders.
