The correct answer is D. At the Battle of the Alamo, the Texans held off the Mexicans for twelve days but were eventually defeated.
Explanation:
The Battle of the Alamo took place between February 23 and March 6, 1836 during the Texas Revolution. The dispute stood between a Mexican army of 2400 men under the command of Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, and about 200 Texas residents, led by Lieutenant Colonel William Travis, who took shelter inside the abandoned mission church of San Antonio de Valero (later known as the Alamo). After 13 days of siege, the defenses were stormed by the superior Mexican forces, who took the plant after a fierce battle. Of the more than 200 defenders, everyone except two fell. The Mexican losses amounted to about 500 dead and wounded.
