Perfectly stated in Sun Tzu's The Art of War

From The Art of War:

8. The skillful soldier does not raise a second levy,
neither are his supply-wagons loaded more than twice.

9. Bring war material with you from home, but forage
on the enemy. Thus the army will have food enough
for its needs.

Yep, we sure want him to take control.

One of the goals of war is to capture the enemies supplies, munitions and using them against the enemy.

It's a lot cheaper than shipping the supplies and munitions across the ocean.
