The American Immigrant Separatist Forces in Texas, or Breakout Army for short, was a new definition of the Texas rebellion in the newspapers, and it was quickly embraced by the world's media.

Guizot and Thiers, two bigwigs in French politics, saw this as a good opportunity for France to return to North America.

After all, Mexicans are too poor to pay off the interest, and it is not a dream to take advantage of the debt problem to claim Texas from Mexico, use the Gulf of Mexico as a base, and create a second France.

They didn't think it was wishful thinking, and they knew that Mexico was not strong enough to support Tassan-Anna's military campaign.

Mexico's annual revenue is only 18 million pesos, less than one-tenth of France's.

According to French estimates, Mexico's funds will dry up in three months at most, and this is on the premise that Mexico does not increase its military spending.

And according to intelligence, the Texas separatist army has been supported by the Americans.

The level of training and weaponry of the Mexicans is very backward, and it only takes a small group of organized American troops to enter Texas and defeat the Mexicans.

Regarding anti-Americanism, although the British quarreled the most, it was impossible for them to send troops directly to Texas, so sooner or later the two sides of the war would become the United States and Mexico.

And the United States is much stronger than Mexico, and the defeat of the Mexicans is a matter of time.

If the Mexicans do not want to accept the fate of defeat, they can only borrow money from France, which is also willing to help these poor people.

After all, we are all Catholic brothers, how can I call the name of the great filial son of the French Catholic in vain?

As for the end of the war, they demanded Texas from Mexico under the pretext of debt.

In this way, Mexico paid off its debts and was protected by France, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

After all, as long as France is in Texas, the United States will not be able to continue westward expansion, and Mexicans will be able to rest easy.

Thiers and Guizot were still dreaming of a bright future for France in North America when a cabinet clerk woke them up.

"Mr. Rothschild, they are coming..."

To accomplish their good deeds, France needs the most professional bankers....

A massacre is taking place on a plain north of San Antonio.

The battle was fought between 1,500 Mexican cavalry of Tasan Anna and 270 remnants of Colonel Manin of the division army.

Both sides were doomed from the moment the battle began.

Since Manin and his soldiers did not find out at first, the other party was Mexican, and they thought it was reinforcements from Houston.

Let the cavalry advance to a distance of less than 100 meters, and at this time it is too late to organize the soldiers to form a hollow phalanx, or to escape.

At that moment, Ma Ning gave up thinking and let the cavalry crush his own ranks.

The scattered deserters could not escape the pursuit of the cavalry, and soon the battle was over.

Tasan Anna enjoyed the sight of the cavalry chasing down the rout, and he cried out excitedly as he liked the feeling of blood splattering everywhere.

"Kill them all! Good boy, God is with us! ”

Gabrinz and Stadion showed no interest in such a one-sided fight, and Tasan Anna's lieutenant reminded him.

"The two military observers are still here, and we should observe gentlemanly etiquette."

This made Tasan Anna react, if he continued to kill indiscriminately like this, he would definitely be regarded as a barbarian, and hurriedly ordered.

"Don't hurt those who surrender, quick! Stop them! Don't kill anymore! ”

A few of the officers rushed out on horseback, for the soldiers had already killed the red-eyed, and whoever it was, they would be very excited when they rode to catch the rabbits.

By the time the officers had stopped the frantic cavalry, there were only a dozen men left in the splinter army, including Colonel Manin, who had given up thinking.

Colonel Ma Ning stood stunned on the spot and wore an officer's uniform, which was directly ignored by the cavalry, but it was the soldiers and volunteers who fled that inspired the fierceness of the cavalry.

A Mexican general sped up to Tasan Anama, took off his hat and saluted.

"General, it's your victory, it's a great victory. We captured 17 people, including a colonel, who was supposed to be their commander, and three hundred guns. ”

Colonel Manin was the highest-ranking officer captured by the Mexican Army since the beginning of the war.

Tasan Anna was so proud that he wanted to humiliate the splerat officer, but he was disappointed, and the man seemed stupid.

The fighting in the direction of the town was over, and Tasan Anna ordered his men to put out the fire, collect the affected refugees, and then blame the splinter army for arson.

The hundreds of residents of the town wept silently as they watched their homes in ruins, and no one cared about Tasan Anna's speech.

"Your Excellency, you should show your kindness." In fact, Gabrenz already wants to scold his mother, how did this person become the ruler of Mexico, and he has no political talent at all?

In fact, Tasan Anna was the first person in the Americas to bombard the presidential palace, and created a school of "house demolition", as the name suggests, every coup d'état must bomb the presidential palace, resulting in the president having to repeatedly build himself a new home, this school is very widespread, and the whole of Latin America is its supporter.

Such dictators, who came to power through military coups, often have very limited political means.

However, with Austrian military observers nearby, he also had to restrain himself.

In order to maintain the image of the Mexican army, Tasan Anna ordered the soldiers to be the inhabitants of the town. Set up a makeshift tent, and distributed some of the military rations he looted to the soldiers and civilians in the town.

Tasan Anna's actions won a wave of popularity, but they made the quartermaster angry, because the military supplies in the rear had not arrived for a long time, and now the Mexican army was able to eat and drink because it robbed the rebels who had betrayed Mexico.

And now Tasan Anna refuses to plunder in order to maintain his image, Alamo can't take it for a long time, and Goliard has food and supplies, but they don't have money, so it's very difficult.

On March 9, 1836, the sixteen-pounder heavy siege gun that Tasan Anna had been waiting for finally arrived.

Tasan Anna was ecstatic and shouted, "I'm going to kill all those Yankees." ”

This made Gabrinz and Stadion feel that he was hopeless, because killing the Yankees would make them heroes.

Franz was well aware of this, and he had long ago instructed Archbishop Rauscher to do everything possible to get the defenders of the Alamo to surrender.

Before Gabrinz and Stadion arrived in Mexico, they were told that they must get as many Texans as possible to surrender, especially the defenders of San Antonio (now the defenders of the Alamo).

Stadion was the first to speak, "Your Excellency, you should first send those captives to persuade the defenders of the Alamo to surrender. If the other side surrenders, you can avoid unnecessary bloodshed and increase your prestige. ”

Tasan Anna immediately noticed that he was out of shape, he was the Napoleon of North America, how could he not be gracious?

"Have the captives go and tell the defenders of the Alamo to surrender."
