In 1835, Mexican President Antonio López de Santa Anna sent troops to Gonzales, Texas, to retrieve a cannon that had been given to the settlers there for defense against Native American attacks. This action was seen as an attempt to assert Mexican authority over the increasingly rebellious Texan settlers. The confrontation escalated into the "Come and Take It" battle, marking a significant event in the Texas Revolution as it symbolized the Texan resistance against Mexican control. The incident ultimately galvanized support for Texan independence.

He did not have the army to defeat Santa Ana at that point. He did not send reinforcements to Goliad. He did not have the troops to spare. In capturing those two outposts, the Texans lost several hundred solders. The Mexicans lost thousands. The lack of sanitation caused the loss of several thousand more.
