After understanding the historical background of the Alamo battle, I will

The Alamo was originally a Catholic district established by the Spanish, located near San Antonio, Texas, with an unfinished Catholic church. After the Mexican War of Independence, a large number of Americans poured into Texas to pioneer and colonize, and in 1836 they betrayed Mexico and established the Republic of Texas. After the Republic militia annihilated the Mexican defenders of the Alamo and turned it into a fortress, Mexican President Santa Ana learned of the Texas rebellion and led a large army to quell the rebellion, and ordered that no prisoners be taken. Lieutenant Travis, the commander of the Alamo garrison, had a violent conflict with Colonel Bowie, who advocated surrender, and finally more than 200 militiamen decided to defend the fortress. The Mexican army has only 6,000 people, many of whom are untrained recruits, not the opponents of the sturdy militia at all. They were defeated at the beginning. The Alamo defended for 13 days. Finally, the Mexican army swarmed up and captured the fortress at the cost of 600 casualties. All the defenders in the fortress were killed, but the Mexican army was also severely damaged. It was quickly defeated by 700 militiamen led by Houston. The president was also captured.
