With the Mexican cavalry detachment sent retreating after the Battle of Gonzales, the Texians prepared for the phase of the war, removing the Centralist troops from Texas. However, just as the dragoons ride out of the vicinity of the rebellious town. General Martin Perfecto de Cos arrives on the Texas coast with a force of 500 men to suppress the rebellion that has risen up in the state. With the arrival of Cos, more men rise to fight back against what they see as a Centralist takeover of the state. San Antonio de Bexar, the regional capital, becomes a vacuum that pulls in the various armed groups in the state. That will result in a month-long siege and a chaotic street-to-street battle for supremacy on the Mexican Frontier. The result of this fight will prompt a major reaction from the very President of the Mexican Republic, who decides it is finally time for him to march in and settle things for good.

VPNs as a security device are a scam. You just move the point of trust, however they can be useful for other applications, like streaming.
Scam.
@MrSpirit99 they give him money let him advertise.
@WarhawkYT it is Mission Concepción concep si on is how it would be said.
@@vanringo He can, and VPNs are somewhat useful, but selling them as security devices is just wrong.
I miss your Civil War series, however, am enjoying this new series on Texas independence.
He is taking a break from civil war but I miss it too
We will go back to the civil war after this. I’ve been working on the civil war for 3 years and I’ve been kinda burnt out on it.
I understand burn out. I enjoyed your Civil War series a lot. I am also enjoying the Texas Revolution series. I lived in San Antonio for 15 years, so was familiar with many of the locations you discussed in this video. @@WarhawkYT
@@WarhawkYTabsolutely adore this channel. It is one of my all time favorite historical CZcams channels.
@@WarhawkYTwhen are you going to make the Battle of the Alamo?
The fact that you are calling the two sides Federalists and Centralists means you did more research than 90% of the people who’ve covered this conflict already
If it’s one thing I know, it’s the Texas Revolution. Being a native Texan and history buff, I’ve deep dived into the history. Making sure my information is up to stuff. One thing you might notice in the later videos, I quit calling them those terms as we get to the Declaration of Independence. Now the fight is between two countries.
Love your videos. Don't ever stop.
Also although you said you wanted to step away from the ACW but I hope your return to it eventually as I was really looking forward to your video on Antietam. Regardless keep up the good work
Not leaving, just taking a break 😉
Awesome. :-)@@WarhawkYT
Heck yeah!!! Warhawk is back! I love your style. You taught me a lot about the early Civil War that I had no clue about. You really put it into a perspective that showed just how intense and high stakes it was for all sides. A tenuous power balance and brutal slug match; what a terrible thing for our countrymen to go through. If you ever delve back into the mid-late eras, I'm there!
this is pretty great. Hope you will cover the American-Mexican war as well.
Just found your channel. I’m a history buff and a native of San Antonio. You’ve clearly done your homework. Very well done, I’ll be sticking around and I look forward to watching more of your work.
very impressed that you actually use an accurate map of early texas
I like your videos. Your maps look complicated yet simple at the same time.
Glad you like them!
Well done! Not only have you did an excellent job presenting a battle I never even heard off, but you showed the Mexicans soldiers and the commanders as professionals.
Just found your channel and I am impressed. The production quality and the amount of researched information is astounding! Can’t wait for the siege of the Alamo and the second battle of goliad (the massacre). I was just there. Truly hallowed ground in Texas.
Thank you patsik, I appreciate a lot!
WATCHED THIS WHOLE PLAY LIST. First time yesterday....found it very informative,and it seems your team stuck to facts and kept personnel oppion clear,great on that. .The way you present the Texans its a surprise that they won...Will deffently be back to watch other vidio sets.good luck on next.
Man, would love a colaboración con Wild West Extravaganza ...my Texas brothers are amazing.Louisiana here...i wanna move to Texas. If Texas falls, we fall. Long Live Texas!
I live in Tennessee and have family in Texas.
We are historically joined and will still come to the aid of each other.
Very nicely done - look forward to more about the TExas Revolution!
This series is just starting and I'm loving it. Greetings from Argentina🇦🇷
Glad you enjoyed it!
I like that you have done a series on the Texas revolution. Because there are not alot of videos about it on CZcams, at least not this detailed.
Also I have been to both the Alamo and San Jacinto battlefields.
Thanks histography, texas rev is my bread and butter and was always let down by the quality/quantity of videos regarding the war
Don’t mess with Texas!! Wooo!!! Love to see you, Warhawk!!!
Yee yee brother
Really enjoying the depth of your Texas series. Thanks.
Glad to hear it!
i cant help but wonder how different (if at all?) this summary would be if you had access to sources written in spanish. nevertheless, excellent video!
Impressive !
I knew basically nothing about the Texas Revolution. Thanks for the remedy.
You bet!
Man, these have been fantastic, thank you!
So excited about this series!
Awesome review of the battle. Thanks for posting!
It’s glorious.
You’re glorious
Great video and series, please keep up the good work!
Thanks, will do!
my boy got that good content
hell yeah
Great Detail!
Thank you! Cheers!
This was an amazing watch! I am loving your content and will try an show some support soon thank you for your work!
LONG LIVE TEXAS!!!
Texas belongs to Mexico 🇲🇽
Texas is the best
Great video but I just want to point out Copano Bay is south of Refugio and not the location shown here which is Lavaca Bay
Been waiting forever for content to come out from the channel. Thanks.
The given number of Texian dead and wounded during the 3 day battle to take the Town's Plaza just don't tally with the Mexican dead. This is close quarter house to house fighting and would have left probably equal numbers of dead on either side. Mexican moral never broke during their steady push back into the Town centre. They had a small company of sharp shooters in reserve and twice flanked the Texians [both beaten off]. Wikipedia gives different numbers completely. Anyone have any idea of the real numbers of dead and wounded during this intense 3 day battle during the overall siege. Also sieges of length in this period would have produced many non-combat dead. Any thoughts and points would be great.
Besides the 750 captured (the remaining army), my causalities mirrors the one on Wikipedia.
Just excellent as always.
Very well done, nice attention to detail without bogging down in the minutae.
Love the History Lesson.
Keep Em Coming!
Thanks! Will do!
What video editing software do you use? I love channels like yours and Epic History TVs and I want to take a crack at covering a conflict.
Really well done. Completely enjoyed it and learned a few things I had long forgotten.
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome! Can't wait for the rest of this series!
Yoooo your channel has the best Texas independent series waiting for the 3rd one when will it be out ?
Thanks bro, I appreciate it! Part 3 will be out Saturday at 9am cst!
Man I love this channel. Keep it up man.
Thanks Meow
Good history that gets little notice in today's world.
Every time I see you guys upload I smile. Thank you!
I appreciate it Shifty!
Awesome vid and it happens that i don't know a lot of stuff about this war only the Alamo battle with Bunn and Crocket died and more men and the battle after Alamo but i don't remember the name so very good info. Can you continue with "The French and Indian War" too that i know some stuff but i would love to see the next vids about that war too. Thanks for the vid have a nice Sunday.👍👍🙌🙌
Your channel is amazing! The most I as a finn has learned about U.S battles history. Especially the civil war. Texas is ofc an important part as an border state and one of the most recent joined states, and the contemporary situation looks a bit like finland, we got rushed by "refugees" from russia, and closed the border.
And nothing new with intrusions from the opfor. Most people arriving at our border are combat aged men, from Syria, Afghanistan etc.. Plus our international police branch estimates 40% of about 150 workers at the Russian embassy in helsinki are on espionage mission.
Great as always, big guy. Love your format.
Thanks bb
That was soooo good! I can't wait for the next video!
Awesome series! Please keep it up.
When is the antietam video coming?
Whenever it comes out
Another well done video. Will you have a video out to commemorate the Battle of the Alamo in time for it's anniversary on March 6th? I'll be looking forward to the next video in the series. The "Ben Milam Tree" is still standing to this day and you can see it on a river tour.
I doubt ill get it done by the anniversary, but im like 3/4s done
I am really enjoying this series! Great work!
Awesome, thank you!
@WarhawkYT which video editing program do you use for these videos?
Someone should actually make a movie series on the texas Revolution
really interesting video, I had no idea the siege nearly failed
Nice work cannot wait to see the whole series.
I’m exited as well! Next video is going to be awesome!
@@WarhawkYT I sub-ed and I learned a few things I did not know previously about the lead up. We can agree to disagree on pronunciation otherwise I like the video and NO AI voice over!
ive never used AI voiceover ive narrated every video lol
@@WarhawkYT a lot of channels are now and it ruins the video quickly especially when it is pronouncing names or cities in Eastern Europe or Russia
A+
It’s kind of strange after watching your civil war stuff where thousands of soldiers fought a battle to watch this series where battles had less than 200 people.
Yeah I find it interesting that no battle in the texas revolution never reached 2200 combatants
Well done. Very well done indeed. Cheers from Tennessee
Thank you very much!
Not that i dont like these cause i do (i still stand by the statement that you're the best and most underrated military history youtuber) but where are the civil war videos!? I need to know how the story ends! Lol seriously though keep up the good work sir!
Thanks Archangel! I’m taking a break from the civil war (been working on it for 3 years) and will get back to it when I’m done with my texas rev miniseries
@WarhawkYT makes sense! Take all the time you need! You do great work and don't get enough attention from the algorithm, in my opinion. Definitely appreciate your work sir.
I read somewhere that the reason the Mexican Army's marksmanship was so bad in these battles was because the French & English had sold them old Muskets with barrels so worn down they couldn't hit the broadside of a barn? In your research have you come upon anything like this explanation?
Oh yes definitely, the Mexicans bought all the surplus rifles from the European powers. Probably guns used during the napoleonic wars. Not only that but what I told another, they also bought poor powder as well. Theres a few reports of Texians being shot but the balls just bouncing off because they had no power behind their shots. When the Texians captured Mexican powder, they would just dump it because it was useless compared to the powder they have.
@@WarhawkYT thank you, I had heard about the bullets bouncing off but I had always thought that was obvious propaganda. However hearing about the Powder being so bad it all makes sense now. Again thank you. Keep up the good work love your stuff.
Great video and love your civil war series! Man, it is so crazy how poorly the Mexican Army's forces are. I get that most of the army was demoralized and had no interest in fighting, but how are they still numerically superior but yet still can barely graze the Texans? I am guessing most of the Mexican army was conscripted and fired their guns only a handful of times ever before being sent into battle. Not to mention the Texans superior rifles, commanders and fighting spirit.
Yeah, their men were not happy being there, their guns and ammunition sucked. Actually at Concepcion, one Texian was hit by a bullet and it bounced off because the Mexican powder was horrible. Did you watch my army composition section?
Great Job!!!
"Who will go with old Ben Milam into San Antonio?" what a legend.
Hell yeah, Milam is one of my favorites
Outstanding
I found out on Ancestory that I'm related to Stephen Austin, Sam Houston and David Crockett.
That’s quite specific lol
I found out on Ancestory. Surprised the hell out of me
Maps are coming along nicely Warhawk! ACW please though!!!!!
We will promise 😉
Also, It is not pronounced like Be-har. It is pronounce like Bear. The "X" is silent.
Thanks Adam i appreciate it
@@WarhawkYTHypocritr
He’s actually pronouncing the way it closely said in Spanish. But yeah now it’s pronounced like “bear”
20:22 So it's spelled "Deaf" but pronounced like "deef". But over all good video! There were a few other mispronunciations, too, but I don't know that they matter as much. Much appreciated.
Thanks I realized I said deaf wrong after the fact.
@@WarhawkYT All good! Overall the video was very good and I have watched the series so far and enjoyed it! Great job!
Sega needs to make a total war game set during the Spanish American war or the Texas revolution with south and Central America as the main focus
Nah sega needs to make a Victoria total war and have this as a dlc or expansion
@@WarhawkYT that’s a fucking vibe
Are you going to do the Mexican-American war too?
At some point, we going back to our regular civil war videos afterwards
Love your channel.
Thank you!
will you also cover the battle of Monterrey?!😄
Vaunted*
Good stuff! However, I much prefer your Civil War content. Kinda wish you would have taken a break from that AFTER the conclusion of the Maryland Campaign instead of right before its climax.
can you do the whole texas revolution?
We are, we have more videos, the Goliad Massacre and San Jacinto
Excellent 🦅
eggcellent
In a 3 day, house to house fight, the Mexican garrison only inflicted 35 casualties on a 700 man force? What are they shooting at?
Besides the Alamo and Coleto Creek, the Mexicans have a hard time killing the Texians. The texians used modern rifles compared to the brown besses of the Mexican army. Yeah that might be the standard infantry gun of the day but also, one note people don’t take into consideration is the quality of the powder. The powder that the Mexicans used was cheap and did not have the same hitting power compared to the texians. There are reports of some Mexican balls bouncing off the Texians because their powder was so useless.
Lol, hol' up. Austin wanted to attack, but the men who were bored from a lack of action were like naawww bro, were good.
Then they start complaining again about a lack of action. Then Burleson is like: ok, lets attack, but again they were like naww.....but then again they were like but now were bored.
LOL.....just LOL.....
yeah frontier militia warfare is wildddddd
OH HELL YEAH BROTHER
YEE YEE BROTHER
This was excellent. Thank you.
Just an FYI. Bexar is pronounced BEAR, not BAY HAR
Yes I know, many have told me a lot. It’s historical pronunciation is bay har
Sorry to be that guy. Bexar is pronounced bear. Born and raised Texan and that fact as always annoyed me as bear is bear not Bexar. But trust me it's pronounced bear.
Yes the anglicized pronunciation of Bexar is Bear, as you said it. But the Hispanic pronunciation is bey-har as I said it.
..If the streets of san Antonio could talk
PRONOUNCE LA CONCEPCION -
Good!❤👍🤟
Thanks 🔥
Crazy how the texanos (Hispanics) helped Austin and yet they treat all Hispanics like shit now and days
history is crazy
Juan Seguin is basically a Texan Coriolanus, imagine being a hero of a rebellion and then you have to abandon your own homeland and then join the army of your former enemy.
If you really want to know how the " Texians " thought , go to about the 16:50 mark until you get to the " drinking and pot shot shooting part " . You are taught that from a young age in Texas. 🤣
One must imagine Saris Texan.
When do you get to the part of the murderous illegal immigrant Davey Crockett?
Being part of the mexicam army must be miserable all officera corrupt incompetent appointed trough nepotism
Sgt. Slug
Sluggy
So far it seems insubordination is Texas’ greatest power.
If you want to know where the stereotype of the insubordinate badass who plays by his own rules yet gets the job done battles like these helped ingrain that trope.
pronounced bear
That’s the anglicized version
Love the content, but it is pronounced "bear".
Thanks. The modern pronunciation is near but during the Hispanic period it’s bey-har
god bless TEXAS
PRONOUNCE - LA BAHIA CORRECTLY YOU NON TEXAN!
womp womp
Glory to the Texians!
God bless Mexico 🇲🇽 for defending their own country against invaders.
It’s pronounced- La Ba Hee ya
Good stuff ... except for Texas lol
It's pronounced bear not be har
Not in 1836, it was beyhar
Just saying but an interesting fact about Sam Houston is that before Robert E Lee married his wife Sam Houston datted her.
That’s cool
Texans wanted to be "free" to own slaves. Fact. End of story. 😭
So, America’s Stalingrad. Interesting.
It what way lol
@@WarhawkYT
Well…it was a grueling urban street-to-street, house-to-house, and room-to-room battle.
@@wyattmcgee1 lol not as bloody though
@@WarhawkYT
Fair enough lol
That’s BuHAR, not BAYhar
Thanks
