Shiloh Solo Turns 4-5

Bragg and Polk push on around the flank of Prentiss, heading directly for
Pittsburg Landing. So far none of these troops have been engaged.
Things are not going so well in the centre where some of Hardee's men have
fallen back slowing Polk's advance over Shiloh Creek.
On the Confederate left the attempt to dislodge Sherman from Shiloh Church
has met with little success. Two Rebel brigades have broken but more troops
are coming up in support.
Meanwhile orders have finally arrived for Hurlbut to advance and occupy the
Sunken Lane.
