Sun Tzu famously said that men with no escape will fight to the death. Houston brought his men to a place where they could not escape, and the slaughters at the Alamo and Goliad showed the Texians that if they didn’t win, they would die. The result was a Texians army that would not surrender or back down.

Houston was definately right all along, his strategy was brilliant. It had a touch of fabians attrition strategy aswell. He was a great general!

The Fabian strategy is one of the most hated, but sometimes the most effective desperation strategy.

Your videos to illustrate historical battles are a treasure.

A couple of additions: 1) Santa Anna was hated all over Mexico not only for his coup to establish his dictatorship but his brutality to anyone who opposed him (Re: Zacatecas). 2) He truly saw himself as the "Napoleon of the West" and (forgetting Napoleon's foray into Russia) since he felt that New Orleans had truly belonged to Spain (not France) and, by extension, Mexico, he planned to march east and capture the city (ignoring the swamps in between). Given the size of his army, IF he had made it, there is a good chance he could have captured it. Now held it is another thing.

Though it’s certainly fun to think about, I’m not sure there’s any realistic alternate scenario where Santa Anna could have captured New Orleans without a significantly larger force than he mustered for the Texas campaign. Around this time, New Orleans was the third largest city in the entire United States behind only New York and Philadelphia. The city had easily repulsed a much larger British force at the Battle of New Orleans in 1815. Other than a shared Catholic heritage, the locals of Louisiana (I’m one, myself) would not have reacted kindly to an attempted forced annexation to Mexico by Santa Anna. And that’s not even considering how the US government would have reacted. Personally, I think the outcome of the Mexican-American War was always inevitable, but the surprising success of the Texans in 1836 definitely sped up the timeline by a few decades. Santa Anna is certainly a fascinating man.

Mexico did send its army into the Republic of Texas after the revolution. In fact, the Mexican army captured San Antonio 3 times during the 9 years of the Republic of Texas.

That’s why he was a good commander. He knew his men only had enough gusto in them for one real good fight, so he made sure that he stacked the deck as much in his favor as possible to maximize that.

I find it crazy that there is only a few thousand soldiers on both sides but millions of civilians but I guess technology prevented from massing armies in that area of the time frame but in the same hand that's not true because there's been a massing of armies before in history

While it ended horribly, would you be willing to do the Gutierrez-Magee Expedition? Arguably this would bring the number of Flags over Texas to 7, instead of 6. Just as we count the failed rebellion of the Confederates, so too should this count. And it is much lesser known, but I think is extremely important.
