Pickett pulled back to the Five Forks intersection at daybreak and was ordered by Lee to hold it “at all costs.” Sheridan advanced and pinned the main Confederate line with his cavalry while sending the three infantry divisions of Warren’s Fifth Corps against their eastern flank. Pickett’s line collapsed and many of his men were captured. Pickett had missed most of the battle attending a shad bake behind the lines but rejoined the survivors before they withdrew to the northwest, cut off from Lee’s army.
