Santa Anna was making his law into Texas and although San Houston had sent James B. and William B. Travis to burn the old mission, they decided to stay and protect the Alamo and prevent Santa Anna's progress.

Battle Of the Alamo (Why Who) Several months previously, Texians had driven all Mexican troops out of Mexican Texas.

About 100 Texians were then garrisoned at the Alamo.

The Texian force grew slightly with the arrival of reinforcements led by eventual Alamo

co-commanders James Bowie and William B. Travis. On February 23, approximately 1,500

Mexicans marched into San Antonio de Bexar as the first step in a campaign to retake Texas

For the next 10 days the two armies engaged in several skirmishes with minimal

Casualties. Aware that his garrison could not withstand an attack by such a large force,

Travis wrote multiple letters pleading for more men and supplies, but fewer than 100

Reinforcements arrived there. Houston could not spare the number

of men necessary to mount a successful defense. Instead, he sent Colonel James

Bowie with 30 men to remove the artillery from the Alamo and destroy the complex.

Bowie was unable to transport the artillery since the Alamo garrison lacked the necessary

Draft animals. Neill soon persuaded Bowie that the location held strategic importance.

In a letter to Governor Henry Smith, Bowie argued that "the salvation of Texas depends in

Great measure on keeping Bexar out of the hands of the enemy. It serves as the frontier

picquet guard, and if it were in the possession of Santa Anna, there is no stronghold

From which to repel him in his march towards the Sabine." The letter to Smith ended,

Colonel Neill and myself have come to the solemn resolution that we will rather die

in these ditches than give it up to the enemy." Bowie also wrote to the provisional

Government, asking for "men, money, rifles, and cannon powder".

Few reinforcements were authorized; cavalry officer William B. Travis arrived in Béxar

With 30 men on February 3. Five days later, a small group of volunteers arrived, including the famous

frontiersman and former U.S. Congressman David Crockett of Tennessee. On February 11, Neill left the Alamo, determined to recruit additional reinforcements and

Gather supplies. He transferred command to Travis, the highest-ranking regular army

officer in the garrison. Volunteers comprised much of the garrison, and they were

Unwilling to accept Travis as their leader. The men instead elected Bowie, who had a

Reputation as a fierce fighter, as their commander.

Bowie celebrated by getting very intoxicated and creating havoc in Béxar.

To mitigate the resulting ill feelings, Bowie agreed to share command with Travis. As the Texians struggled to find men and supplies, Santa Anna continued to gather men

at San Luis Potosi; by the end of 1835 his army numbered 6,019 soldiers. Rather than

Advance along the coast, where supplies and reinforcements could be easily delivered by

Sea, Santa Anna ordered his army inland to Béxar, the political center of Texas and the

Site of Cos's defeat. The army began its march north in late December. Officers used the

Long journey to train the men. Many of the new recruits did not know how to use the sights of their guns,

and many refused to fire from the shoulder because of the large recoil. On February 21, Santa Anna and his vanguard reached the banks of the Medina River, 25 miles

s (40 km) from Béxar.Unaware of the Mexican Army's proximity, the majority of the Alamo

garrison joined Béxar residents at a fiesta. After learning of the planned celebration,

Santa Anna ordered General Joaquín Ramírez Seams to immediately seize the unprotected

Alamo, but sudden rains halted that raid

Alamo is define as a mission in Sa Antonio Texas that was used as a fort during the Texas revolution.

The siege of Alamo part of the Texas war. The raison of the battle of Alamo, the Texas wanted the independence, but the Americans who live into Texas
