The victory of Sam Houston's troops at the Battle of San Jacinto can be attributed to several key factors. First, Houston's forces utilized strategic surprise and superior mobility, launching a sudden attack on the Mexican army while they were unprepared. Additionally, the Texans benefited from a boost in morale and unity following earlier defeats, which galvanized their resolve. Finally, the tactical decisions made by Houston, including the choice of battlefield and effective use of artillery, played a critical role in overcoming the larger Mexican force.
Sam Houston prepared his army for battle with Santa Anna's troops by implementing strategic training and organization, ensuring his forces were well-disciplined and familiar with military tactics. He focused on the element of surprise, conducting a series of tactical retreats to buy time and strengthen his forces while gathering reinforcements. Additionally, Houston meticulously planned the terrain and timing of the battle, leading to the decisive victory at San Jacinto where his troops caught Santa Anna's forces off guard. This combination of preparation, strategic retreat, and effective planning was crucial to his success.
