Santa Anna hoped that her story would weaken the Texan will to fight and convince them that Mexico could not be resisted. Unfortunately for him, the fall of the Alamo had the opposite effect.

That the defenders were able to delay Santa Ana's advance as long as they did was practically miraculous. Most accounts of the fall of the Alamo depict it as a defeat, but it was not; the Mexican victory was Pyrrhic. In the context of the larger war for Texas independence against Mexico, the defense of the Alamo was a spectacular victory, because it delayed Santa Ana's army for weeks, giving the main force of the Texans to be gathered for the following battles.
