(A) General Lee wanted to take the pressure off General Grant's attack on Vicksburg, Miss. which would give the Union complete control of the Mississippi river, if Gen. Grant won the battle, (which he did). Gen. Lee hoped an attack in Penn. would take Union soldiers from Vicksburg, and that if Gen. Lee defeated Gen. Meade in Penn., then (B) Gen. Lee could attack Washington DC. (like the English did in the War of 1812), and Gen. Lee might even force President Lincoln to surrender the war against the South. (C) There were not a lot of Union soldiers in Penn. and an attack there by Gen. Lee would be totally unexpected, and give Gen. Lee the element of surprise.
