It’s simple
Don’t invade
Stay up north
Leave us alone
Don’t become a prisoner of war
Problem solved

I read that Wirtz of Andersonville problems with the POWs was due to incompetence. He gave the pows axes to chop wood, but forgot to put axe blades on the wood. The union POW camps were pretty bad, too. And the Union did not have the excuse of a blockade.
