The Texas Revolution: Battle of San Jacinto

The Alamo has fallen. With Goliad soon to be overrun, Houston is forced to make the painful decision to retreat in the face of a numerically superior enemy. With Mexican armies advancing and men deserting him at every turn. Houston has to keep the revolutionary spirit alive in these dark days of 1836, hoping to get a chance to turn the tide of war once and for all. Unable to match the Mexican forces toe to toe, Houston must keep retreating until his foe makes a mistake that he might be able to capitalize on. As he retreats east, Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna follows in Houston's wake, driving away anybody who challenges his rule in Mexico. However, as he nears Louisiana, Santa Anna realizes he has a chance to end this rebellion once and for all by capturing the Texian government which is on the run as well. This wild goose chase will take him to the banks of the San Jacinto River, isolating him from the rest of his forces. If Santa Anna dallies longer than necessary, Houston might have a chance to force a battle with the Mexican dictator on terms that favor the Texians....

This video lasted longer than the Battle of San Jacinto did.

"I have been in forty battles and never once shown my back. I am too old to do so now."-Major General Manuel Fernández Castrillón to his routing soldiers at San Jacinto when told to flee with them before being killed by the Texians. Castrillón had opposed several of Santa Anna's actions in the war, such as the massed assault at the Alamo as well as the slaughter of prisoners..

Crazy how a battle with only 1200 men on each side completely changed the course of history.
-
As a Cincinnatian, i didn't know we donated the cannons, but that is cool to know we supported Texas.

She's the sweetest little rosebud that Texas ever knew, Her eyes are bright as diamonds, they sparkle like the dew. You may talk about your Clementine and sing of Rosa Lee, But the Yellow Rose of Texas is the only girl for me! I haven't seen the Texas Revolution covered with battle maps before. Thanks for a great series!
-
The Texan revolutionaries sure won a decisive victory and got some brutal payback. Apparently Santa Anna never wavered in his 'take no prisoners' mentality throughout his life, even when his own country disregarded it as inhumane. His time in the Spanish Royalist army sure left its bloody mark on him.
-
Leaving us all on a cliffhanger there! Are you planning to do the Mexican American war next? Or are you heading back to the American Civil War and the Battle of Antietam that I've eagerly been awaiting?
-
It’s fun watching this as a Texan who knows city and street names. You hear “a random private named Lamar. . .” And you think “wait I know Lamar Avenue, something tells me he’s about to do some hero s***”
-
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.
-
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.

REMEMBER THE ALAMO! REMEMBER GOLIAD!

REMEMBER THE ALAMO!!!

Its been a while for me but im glad to see the ole warhawk is still at the top of os game Great work mate!!

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. Repeatedly repelling the Mexican invasions was one of the major factors that bankrupted the republic of Texas and forced them to join the United States.

Love this video. The timeline between 1800-1850 is my favorite, especially things like the war of 1812 and the Texas revolution
-
This is the history of my family I'm so glad to be a sixth generation Texan and I am so proud to be a Texan
-
Thanks to these brave men and their decisive victory, my homeland got to exist. GOD BLESS TEXAS.

Texas Revolution series was great! Hope the Mexican-American War series will be coming soon!
