Question

the alamo
in 1835 the conflict grew violent. mexican general antonio lópez de santa anna took an army into texas to punish the rebels. in december of that year, the texans captured the city of san antonio from a larger mexican force. santa anna was enraged. his army reached san antonio in late february 1836. there it found a small texan force barricaded, or blocked off, inside a mission building called the alamo.
the texans had only about 180 soldiers to take on santa anna’s army of several thousand. the texans did have brave leaders, however, including folk hero davy crockett, commander william b. travis, and a tough texan named jim bowie. for 13 long days, through several attacks, the defenders of the alamo kept santa anna’s army at bay with rifle fire. on march 6, 1836, mexican cannon fire smashed the alamo’s walls.
the mexican army was too large to hold back. they entered the fortress, killing all the defenders, including travis, crockett, bowie, and a number of tejanos. only a few women and children and some servants survived to tell of the battle.
