(Historical 20 minute turns) After riding roughshod across the length of Missouri, Sterling Price's army is running out of room--and time. Ahead, defensive lines along the Big Blue River block his approach to Kansas City and Westport, and before that river runs another--the Little Blue, with a scratch force of Kansas cavalry guarding the crossings with the mission of slowing down the Confederates long enough for a cavalry division under MajGen Pleasonton to catch up with their rear and bag them all.
