The Texas Revolution: Battle of Gonzales
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 май 2024
- After the fall of New Spain, the Mexican government wanted to bolster the population of its northern regions to protect its inner core from marauding parties of hostile natives and American filibusters. To rectify the problem, the Mexican government invited men such as Stephen F Austin to bring in loyal colonists from the United States to lay down roots in the region known as Texas. However, unbeknownst to the government officials in Mexico City. This problem would backfire in their face. Seeing the wonderful land of Texas up for grabs, thousands more Americans flooded into the Mexican state and started eating up the land. The Mexican officials tried to stop this flood but to no avail. Fighting starts breaking out against the Texian colonists and Mexican soldiers for years on end. The bloodshed will only rise when a popular Mexican General named Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna takes the reins of government. Though popular initially, Santa Anna soon centralizes power and overturns the Constitution, sparking revolts throughout the country. Tired of having no voice in government and being regulated as a second-class region, the people of Texas rise up hoping to get what they want finally, their state. With the tension rising throughout the country, it will only take a small incident to explode the entire region into civil conflict. It might be something as small as a cannon…

I hope all of yall had a wonderful Christmas, here is our late Christmas present to you all, enjoy! Make sure you like and subscribe as it will help us out a lot!
this is the best Christmas gift ever, i know you will do texas proud
Would you be coming out of Spring,North Harris County?
Because l am from West of there, between Spring-Cypress and Louetta. Just west of Kuykendahl Rd.
Thank you so much for y’alls work, God bless and merry Christmas to everyone. This is a hell of a channel, love the detail you put into describing each units role in each historical battle ( when sources are available ofc lol ). It’s so unique and you can hear the passion in the script too.
Great video, as always, idea: every thought about doing the battles of the French foreign legion??
im actually from east houston, baytown area.
As a Texan this is truly Great stuff and I’m surprised nobody has ever did this style of video for the Texas revolution but now that some has finally done it’s gonna be a great watch.
you're welcome man!
IN THE NAME OF GONZALES!!! COME AND TAKE IT!!!!! WAAAAHHOOOOOOO!!!! Warhawk doing the Texas Revolution!! I love it!! Love your content!! And this is a most wonderful surprise!!
Merry Christmas to you GC!
The best pronunciation of Spanish words I have seen in a long time for a non native speaker well done sir💪🏻🙌
Thanks, I appreciate that. I dont think ive ever been commended for my pronunciation on here.
Excellent video with a lot of details that you don't usually see being mentioned. I haven't seen any videos that cover the Texas Revolution using the graphics you have. I'm glad to have found this channel. When I went to Gonzales I was astounded at what I saw. The gun was so small, and the museum staff said it didn't even work when the battle took place. Then I learned the gun on display is actually a second one they had. They abandoned it on the march to San Antonio. It was recovered in 1936 and is now back home where it belongs.
The actual "Gonzales Cannon" was recovered after the fall of the Alamo, and recast into a bell that hangs in the belfry of St. Mark's Episcopal in San Antonio. It roared the call to revolution, and now it rings the call to worship. Poetic, I'd say.
Thanks John, that’s why I am making them ;) I’ve seen pictures of the cannon but I definitely want to see it in real life.
Glad to see someone doing a series on the lead in to the Texas Revolution as well as the war itself. So much content only wants to cover the Alamo and San Jacinto without helping to give a better picture of how those events came to pass.
You're welcome bro! Being a descendent of a Texas Independence signer and loving history, Ive always wanted to make this series. now i am!
Thanks! Well done. God Bless Texas!!
Our pleasure!
Why should he?
@@marthagomez7335why not?
@@LA-hx8gj what for!
@@marthagomez7335 I hope God blesses everyone 🙏, that's why.
I've been to both Goliad, Gonzales, and the Alamo. The three sites are drastically different from each other.
Goliad is much like it was in 1836. Still a functioning Catholic church, it's also an Bed and Breakfast. Plus they still do reenacting events at the sight. Including having the massacre at, or near, one of the slaughter fields. You're out in the country. It's quiet. Creepily quiet.
The Gonzales cannon sits in a large memorial museum in the middle of a park. The town is less than 8,000 people.
As for the Alamo, they still do reenactments on the site, but it's now surrounded by a major city. Just the chapel and first floor of the Long Barracks remain, plus a small piece of the southwest corner where the 18-pounder sat. All the other parts have been demolished and stores and a Post Office now sit on the site where hundreds of men died horribly. Fighting for what they thought to be right.
Spot on
They fought at The Alamo for what was right, no thought had to go into it.
I'm a fifth generation Texican myself.
As a fan of your channel and native Texan I thank you for tackling the Texas revolution
Yes hundreds of pale skins died properly for invading a territory that was not theirs. Who later became slave owners and fought on the side of the secessionist confederates.
Fantastic video 🤠. Will you be covering other battles from the Texas Revolution?
thanks, Siege of bexar will be out in a few short days ;)
Can I get an Antitem video in my life???
Btw your videos are the standard by which I judge all other military history videos by.
we will, we are just taking a break from the civil war. I appreciate that
😂😂
OP must’ve never seen kings and general channel jaja
@@Pwnulolumad Yea I am subscribed to them every other video is just stupid graphics about how"The Vikings settlement in England were made" I don't give a damn about any of that, these videos are all great...
Where's my damn SHARPSBURG VIDEO!!!
HistoryMarche, Epic History TV, Montemayor, The Operations Room, and Warhawk
This will be great! It is fascinating to me that the events here and elsewhere will lead to the war that foreshadows so many of the generals we've witnessed in the civil war. Personally, im also interested in seeing the performance of the Mexican army and comparing it with its forerunners during the same time period against the french.
or we can see how they will compare when they'll face the USA in 10 years
yessir! im looking forward to it!@@WarhawkYT
@@WarhawkYT I think the Mexican Army did a better job in Texas than in the Mexican American War, when Mexico was mobilized they were able to repel Texans and retain the strategic initiative all the way until San Jacinto. Even after that, the Texan Raids at Mier and Santa Fe were failures while Mexico was able to retake San Antonio twice.
Another thing is the naval warfare, Mexican Navy captured the Texan Schooner Independence, and the Brutus and the Invincible ran aground while fighting two mexican brigs. If Commodore David Porter was still in the Mexican Navy he probably would have crushed the Texan Navy and burned Galveston.
This is understandable given that Texas was basically a filibuster affair, fighting against USA was a whole different thing.
An Interesting difference I noticed is that the big names of the mexican army during the war against France tend to be on the younger side and didnt participate in the Mexican American War.
Sherman, Grant, McClellan, Meade, Lee, Stonewall Jackson and Longstreet were veterans of the Mexican American War.
However, Ignacio Zaragoza (the one who defeated the French in the Cinco de Mayo Battle), Porfirio Diaz (the big hero of the war), Ramon Corona and Sostenes Rocha (one of the most skilled generals in Mexican History) were just Teenagers during the Mexican American War, Gonzalez Ortega (who bravely defended Puebla against the french) was an adult however he didnt serve in the war, an exception would be Mariano Escobedo who served as a foot soldier.
@@moic9704 I thought it interesting too. One would think that if the big names from the American civil war showed up in the Mexican American war the reverse would be true too during the french intervention. yet, folks like Zaragoza were born in what was at the time the state of coahuila y tejas. A loose connection, but one that exists all the same. I suppose the anarchy in between conflicts that occur don't allow for very much continuity.
Thank you for bringing more attention to my great state. Remember the Alamo!
It’s my home state too! I live just 20m from San Jacinto!
"Remember the Alamo", in Texas, Mexico. "The Watermelon Slice", by Jack Oliver, in Panama. "The Sinking of the Battleship Maine", in Havana, Cuba. "The sinking of the RMS Lusitania", off the coast of Ireland. Pearl Harbor, in Hawaii. Gulf of Tonkin, in Vietnam. "The Invasion of the Tiny Island of Grenada", for the construction of... An Airport? The 911, in New York. "Weapons of Mass Destruction", in Iran... It is difficult understand how Mr. Davy Crockett can be considered an "American Hero"... Well, may be cuz curiously, it turns out that ALL US Heroes are Criminals. (Is a Verifiable Fact that ALL US Heroes are "Bandits". Is a sad truth: Our country, the US, is a world military and economic power, but nevertheless, no US Citizen can be proud of this, cuz our Empire is the product of Piracy, Slavery, to the Looting, Genocide, Murder of Word Leaders, the Opium and Cocaine Trafficking. And the Weakness of other sovereign nations. We have "Grown" 711 the size of our territory from the original 13 colonies). Okay: Mr. Crockett was a Fur Trapper, Mercenary, Looter and Slaver. He was involved in the Dispossession, Robbery and Murder of the Native Nations of America. Particularly with the Cherokee, Shawnee, Creek, and Seminole Peoples. And it is precisely here that Mr. Crockett gains notoriety with his abuses. The Myth that Mr. Davy Crockett confronted Mr. Andrew Jackson for his "Intentions to take away territories from the Native Americans to concentrate them in Oklahoma", are False. Mr. Davy Crockett did NOT argue with Mr. Jackson. Quite the opposite. He supported him and the "Emigration" was carried out. Mr. Davy Crockett was a Barely Educated Fortune Seeker Adventurer who went all the way to Texas to Rob Property (as he had any real property of his own). In fact, all those who died at The Alamo were Pirates and Assassins. Mr. James "Jim" Bowie, for example, was a Mercenary who fled from southeastern Missouri to Louisiana, cuz the Law wanted him for a double murder. Mr. William Barret Travis, Mercenary, Slaver and Thief. Him, one day and without further ado, abandoned his pregnant wife; to his son and unborn daughter, to: "Start all over again, in Texas." He was also fleeing from the Law. Finally: Who died in The Alamo fought for the Independence of Texas? Independence? NOT! None of those who died at the Battle of The Alamo were originally from Texas. NO ONE! They were all newcomers. They were all from Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Mississippi, from Virginia, Carolina, Tennessee, etc. But not from Texas. All came to Texas cuz were promised 4,600 acres as soon as they won their war. Therefore, they were Pirates. For this to be understood, we make a comparison. Question: Is it Fair and Legal, that the Russians have declared the "Independence" of Donbas? Not! The Russians of Donbas can NOT declare "Independence" cuz they are NOT Ukrainians... They are Russians! Now: Is it Fair and Legal for Mr. Putin to Recognize and Annex the Donbas to Russia? Not! That's a Robbery. Well, this is exactly the same as what happened with Texas. The territory of Texas belonged to Mexico, and there was NO reason nor "Casus Belli" for citizens of Tennessee, Virginia, Kentucky, Carolina, etc. claim Territorial Rights. So which Independence? Why here, in US, the Pirates are Heroes?
It was Mexican territory until American illegals (Davy Crockett) crossed into Mexico and declared themselves independent. And then two two hundred years Americans said they don’t like illegals.
I would suggest you read about it but I’m sure any book that makes whites look or feel bad has been banned.
@liberalman8319 yeah, but at least Texas isn't part of a shithole country anymore (at least not until it becomes predominantly hispanic).
And remember Goliad!
Really awesome work. Took my family to Gonzales this past summer, this video really paints the history well. Thank you.
Dang it! I was just about to start making a video on this. Touché sir, Touché.
Thanks bro what are the chances. I should’ve had this done a lot sooner but I got a little lazy lol
Edit: do you have a discord or email I can reach out with? I have a question
Your in depth detail is second to none. Love your content.
I really like that you are explaining everything like how Epic History TV makes their videos.
I must say your efforts into these videos you make are amazing, and I absolutely a history nerd cannot wait to watch this one👍
realy nice video, definitely one of my favourites on this channel. Also your quality now is insane
Greetings from south Texas! Thank you for your great coverage of an important period of our history. JB
so glad you keep making videos
Your videos have gotten very well made. Already awesome but ya know, I’m very impressed how quickly you’ve evolved. Keep up the great work you deserve every bit of recognition you get. Amazing stuff man.
I really appreciate you saying that, thanks!
Man I missed your videos. Glad you’re back! This one’s gonna be great.
Thanks man, glad to be back!
Thanks for your documentary on this battle at Gonzalez.
💯👍👊
My pleasure
Wow, your information is so up to date and comprehensive. I'm awed by the production quality and the apparent lack of political bias on such a touchy subject. Everything said is consistent with my understanding with lots of extra context and perspective, fleshing it out. Def subscribed. Thanks.
It shouldn’t be a touchy subject. This should be like any other era in history.
Cannot not wait for the next parts to this. I have been interest in Texas Revolution scine I was a kid. keep them coming
Cool the learn the origin of “Come and take it!” Thx for the video, good stuff.
Hi. What a nicely narrated, organized, and filmed video.
Thanks for your efforts.
Have subscribed and will look forward to watching your videos.
Well presented. Please keep up the good work.
Excellent detail.
Love your videos! always a good watch
I appreciate that!
I can’t believe I only just now found your account, this is a gold mine.
Greetings from Bastrop County, TX. Really appreciate your presentation.
Very well done. I appreciate your hard work
Thank you very much!
Thanks 🙏 very entertaining and informative
Excellent video
Awesome to see more content
yep im glad to be back!
That was great and very informative . Ya got a new subscriber.
thanks ben dover, youre my favorite childhood name
Again very well done video, very exciting to see Warhawk branching off into more American conflicts 🦅
Thanks for the Christmas present, I enjoyed it. Are you doing a segment on the Texas revolution?
Yes I am!
Are you going to produce a video on the Battle of Sharpesburg? I have been looking forward to seeing it since September.@@WarhawkYT
We will, just kinda burnout of Civil War atm
Excellent video!
Thank you very much!
Well done ! 👏👏👏
Excellent video, very detailed and accurate information! T O Moore is actually my GGGF and our family considers 'Come and Take it' to be his creation. Col ( TO) Moore was a Confederate officer for Texas and learned from his mistakes at Gonzales. If anyone is interested, Comanche, Texas was started by our family and their historical society has much more stories and anecdotes about this time period and the Indian affairs, Civil War and Reconstruction.
When is the next video about the Texas Revolution? Great video, I've subscribed!
I appreciate it! I’m like 2/3 done with it. You can always see my progress in our discord, link is in the description!
A Texan surrender their guns? I feel like you'd have better luck taming a honey badger.
Do you think you could do video on the Second Battle of Sabine Pass? One of the most interesting battles of the Civil War.
Love it
Very underrated channel
Good stuff
Appreciate it
A Texas video in this format? Hell yeah, partner!
hell yeah brother
Too few people realise that Santa Anna was popular in Texas before he declared himself President For Life and overthrew the republican government and that most of the battles were not over independence but rather the return to the Constitution of 1824.
He was only popular because he wasn't Bustamante. It's kind of like modern day Biden was only elected because enough lies were told and spread about Trump that got him elected along with other shenanigans. Today Biden is hated so much that the only way Trump doesn't win will be because of shenanigans.
And slaves, don't forget them afro slaves. It's not a just war nor an honorable one, the aggressors were the usians were just looking to expand and mexicos mistake was letting them in.
Very impressive, I was wondering when the Antietam video is gonna come out.
Hawk, you are brilliant! Washington, Indian uprisings and the War of Northern Aggression. What a playlist! Outstanding! Cheers from Tennessee
You’re welcome rabbit!
War of southern treason
Texas State Highway 21 follows much of the El Camino Real. Can take it from Nacogdoches to Crockett. Mission Tejas is on that route. Near Colmesneil, on the Nechss River is the site of Fort Teran
I lived on Hwy 21 when I lived in Nacogdoches.
Driven west on El Camino Real many times
@@mcgregorpiperI’ve only taken 21 from Alto, driving from Tyler to Houston
I wish this channel would focus on one war at a time, instead of 3.
texas independence❤
Great video, my only suggestion is to use a different font for the quotes
The narration slipped in the second half. It became pretty slurred. What happened there?
Audio sounding much better.
Good work. I read somewhere that the mem that Cos was Santa Anna's bro in law has no foundation.
A quick look at wiki says that Cos was the husband of Lucinda Lopez de Santa Anna, however in the biography of Santa Anna written by Will Fowler that sister doesnt exists, according to Fowler Santa Anna had four sisters: Francisca, Merced, Guadalupe and Mariana.
Francisca and Merced were married but not with Cos, there is little data about Guadalupe and Mariana and Fowler makes no mention of a marriage with Cos as far as I remember.
Fowler mentions that Santa Anna's father was close to the Cos family but I am not sure if this is the same family of General Cos.
There is also a book that contains biographies of all mexican generals and colonels in 1840, Cos is recorded as "40 years old, single and of good health"
Hopefuly we get Battle of Perryville Too.!!!
Hell ya!
Hell ya
I’ve been to Fort Teran near Jasper tx
Just saying but I totally can’t wait to see the battle of the Alamo and I can’t wait to see it because in 2019 I visited the Alamo and once I saw it and saw the list of the defenders who lost their lives I was awe stricken and when I saw the list of the defenders I realized that a lot of my fellow Irish, Scottish, English German and one of my danish brothers along with my brethren from Pennsylvania and New Jersey and I said Fois Dhut which is the Scottish Gaelic word for rest in peace and what I mean by my fellow Irish, Scottish, German, English and danish brothers is even though I am an American I consider anyone part or full Scottish, Irish, German, English and danish my fellow brothers and sisters because I had ancestors from those nations and same thing with my brethren from New Jersey and Pennsylvania but I do live in New Jersey and even though I am not to related to the Americans who perished at the Alamo and even though their living descendants are strangers to me they are still my brethren and just saying but I can’t wait to see you do the Mexican American war but can you also do a series on the Black Hawk Wars and these two wars took place in different decades and different states in the US The first war was fought between April 6th and august 27th 1832 and it took place in what is today the modern day states of Illinois and Wisconsin and the opposing sides in this war consisted of the United States part of the Winnebago
, part of the Potawatomi tribes and the Menominee and Sioux tribes and the leaders on their side included future confederate president Jefferson Davis, Future brigadier general Robert C Buchanan who would serve in the civil war, Winfield Scott and Future American presidents Zachary Taylor and a volunteer who would eventually become president Abraham Lincoln facing them was the opposing side which consisted of the rest of the Winnebago and Potawatomi along with the Sauk, Fox, Meskwaki, Kickapoo and Ottawa nations and they were under the leadership of Chiefs Black Hawk of the Sauk and namesake of the first war, Neapope spiritual leader of the Sauk and Wabokiesheik army commander of the Winnebago and Sauk. The second war took place from 1865 to 1872 and this second war was fought in the modern day states of Utah, Arizona, Colorado and New Mexico and the war would also be fought in an area known as Four Corners which is where the state lines of Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico meet each other and the opposing sides in this war was the United States but on the other side was the Ute, Southern Paiute, Navajo, Apache and Timpanogos people and these Indians were led by chiefs Antonga Black Hawk namesake of the second war who was the war chief of the Timpanogos, Cheif Kanosh of the Pahvant band of the Ute people and Manuelito of the Navajo tribe who was best known for resisting the long walk of the Navajo.
im excited too!
Please do a video on the Battle of Medina 1813. I'm from Texas where learning the state's history is mandatory but this is sorely overlooked.
I’ve been thinking about that
Right you are. It is the largest battle with the highest casualties of any battle ever fought in Texas and most people have never heard of it.
I might do a special video for Medina when I cover the Mexican war of independence
Greetings from Nacogdoches! If y’all’re ever in town, check out the Fredonia Brewery!
I’ve been there! I’m an SFA Alumni!
This would be a great war game!
Moses austin got his contract to settle texas from spain in 1820. His son inherited it in 1821.
Looks like y'all took some pretty good lessons from Epic History TV on this one, nice 😁For the next change, might one suggest a narrator with proper bass vocal range? 😄😎
thanks and a weird suggestion
@@WarhawkYT Epic History's videos narrated by Charles Nove; History Marche's by David McCallion. Both narrators have that bass vocal range which gave the pronounciations and way of narration more gravitas, which add an additional quality to their works. Just a personal opinion here.
Yeah, I know. I do almost all myself and still don’t make much off of the channel. Decent narrators I’ve found cost way more than I make. So I’ve decided to keep doing it myself.
Sounds fine to me. If you want to listen to men with deep baritone voices might I suggest Barry White?
This helped me on my history test
There's one channel that is completely dedicated to Texas History, called Garrisons History Productions, that I highly recommend.
I might have seen their stuff before, Thanks for the tip!
Missed seeing you on my feed WH
I miss seeing you bb
hows the progress on that epic history tv video collaboration my man?
Sadly, it fell through, maybe we might do something in the future but as of now, nothing
@@WarhawkYT that is really sad to hear i was expecting the video to be almost finished. Im hoping for the best:)
@@MarbleHit indeed
This is perfect for any 7th grader out there. Well done
Thanks bro!
Very nice work showing the Texas Land Grab. Took Texas History in school as a kid and always wondered why nobody questioned the spin.
You should get checked for GRIDS.
I am quite pleased you presented the political issues surrounding the beginning of our revolt against the dictator Santa Anna.
Also the fact we did not revolt alone.
The revolts in Zacatacas and Yucatan were put down brutally with much death.
Ours only barely succeeded, with only the capture of Santa Anna himself sealing the victory.
I have friends in Anahuac
The formation of the United States of TEXAS is so Kool
The start of this kinda makes me feel bad for Mexico.
It wasn’t just Anglo Americans. There were many unhappy Tejanos and many German, Irish and Scottish immigrants as well.
Yes I know, I went just Anglo Americans to distinguish the Americans from Mexicans
WAR IS WAR THAT IS ALL !!!!!!
I have missed Warhawks videos
So that’s how it started
And thats why you don't let foreigners buy land in your country. Thats asking for trouble.
Free Texas
Happy Holidays! Did you guys need voice actors still for upcoming civil war part for Invasion of Maryland?
Merry Christmas! We do not, thanks for the offer though!
@@WarhawkYT okay I filled out the form months ago and never heard back
Texas Time.
Indeed
11:31 They order them to surrender their guns, but they rise up, instead.
*Shocker*
The other side of my family were Comanche
By the looks of that cannon, that flag should say you can have it.😅
all this needs is an insane mic and a british nature documentary narrator
only if I had that type of stuff lol
Makes you think how good we have it now… don’t have to worry about raids on our towns 😂
For real
My ancestors got there in 1825
Don't need history from the beginning of creation.
In the beginning….
Now, if texas can only figure out how to keep the Californians out
california's and illegal aliens.
Good video but you really need to work on pronunciation of some of the names and locations.
Care to elaborate on what I said wrong?
@@WarhawkYT do not take this as a dig at you but many of the Spanish/Mexican names just the way you say them sounds like an English speaker who sounds them out. Living in South Texas and spending most of my life very much in the culture plus the wife/mother in law who are both Mexican(nationals not just Texan of Mexican decent) I get corrected on how I say or speak Spanish/Mexican names. You did a great job on the video but an example is La Bahia in Goliad TX or some of the Mexican last names. I know you do not have an accent also like many Mexicans or S. Texans but just would round the video out a bit working on pronunciations. Again not trying to be rude or put down the hard work you did to publish the video I actually liked the video overall.
Thanks, I work with some spanish speakers who helped me with my pronunciations and the way I said them in the narration is what they approved.
Hoping to avoid a conflict and then he orders them to give up their weapons....not a smart fella.
I would live more videos on the native tribes that when to wat with the USA army
Wow all it took were a few to stir the pot see this is the shit that need to be in our history books as to what lead up to the famous battle we will know!
14:38 Santa Anna being based lmfao.
Bexar is pronounced more like "bear" or specifically "behr"
That’s the anglicized version of the name. The Spanish is what I said.
