Santa Fe taking the field
Santa Fe taking the field (Santa Fe しゅっせい, Texas Santa Fe Expedition) is 1841 [1] [2], a commercial and military expedition to assume the whole area the territory of the Texas republic of the northern part of current New Mexico. The expedition was started unofficially by President of the Texas republic at the time, Mirabeau B Lamar, and it was a purpose that was going to get further development of the rule of the useful Santa Fe trail and the commerce between Texas and New Mexico. Lamar already dispatched an agent (commissioner) in 1840 and started the negotiations with people of New Mexico, and many beefheads thought that they would be favorable in a thought that the Texas republic increased New Mexico.

Expedition
The expedition departed from a Kenny fort close to Austin on June 19, 1841. A covered wagon attracted by 21 cows was included in the expedition other than William G Cook, Richard F blurring Nam, Jose Antonio Navarro, four people of George station wagon ネス as an agent (commissioner), and higher than approximately 200,000 dollars and an estimated product were loaded onto these. It was a commerce objective expedition, but a bodyguard had the military unit by the officer approximately 320 to a merchant and an enterpriser of Texas and guaranteed transportation and security of the baggage formally. The commanded guards military unit accompanied the artillery by Hugh マクレオド.
The itinerary to New Mexico in the summer ran into difficulties by insufficient preparations and the organization system, the surprise attack of the sporadic Indian and supplies and lack of the fresh water. After having lost a Mexican guide, I will wander in the state that nobody understands how long distance there is to Santa Fe. マクレオド couldn't but divide a military unit after all to send an advance party to find a route off.
The expedition main force finally arrived at New Mexico in the middle of September, 1841. Several people of the advance party including the Captain William G Lewis have been caught. The visitor expected that a visit was welcomed, but the contingent of approximately 1,500 Mexico forces which this expectation was disappointed, and Manuel Miho Al of the Governor New Mexico dispatched appeared and was made to be dumfounded. A relative (probably which of Manuel Chavez or Malian Arno Chavez it is) of Miho Al who could speak English performed the negotiations with the expedition, but an outcome, the Mexico side were accompanied by the Lewis captain whom I should have been caught by then together and supported say of Chavez. I told it when I wanted you to return because two people said that the Governor-General Miho Al gave a beefhead the safe right of passing and bodyguard to the border, and I promised in trust and honor of the Freemason, and Lewis guaranteed it when it was not a lie [3]. Because there was it after the long journey that went far of the mind, and the expedition was not predominantly in condition to be able to fight against the Mexico forces where I beat by a number, I delivered a weapon and surrendered. I gave a visitor some supplies in the evening, and the New Mexico military did it, but, contrary to Chavez and Lewis having talked to Miho Al who it was on the next morning, and arrived with the military, I tied beefheads and treated it strictly and entrusted whether you took him to Mexico City as the war trophies which executed all the members, or defended New Mexico to the judgment of Mexico staff officer official and others. Prisoners will hear the discussion that Mexican officers select measures as in the evening. As a result, it became the vote, and they decided that they kept a beefhead alive with 1 only margin. 2,000 miles is transferred on foot to Mexico City, and the visitor will be kept there until I am released in the next year by diplomatic effort of the United States.
The post
The Captain Lewis was regarded as "a betrayer" among many people, but would not avoid the annihilation approximately surely if the choice that beefheads at the time were given was severe all, and I stood up and fought. Besides, there is no certain information that he or Chavez knows the real intention of Miho Al, and told a lie.
President Lamar was asked the responsibility of this tragic incident very much, and it became the stain of the career as his President to have given an order for taking the field. By the debate about handling by the Mexican to the beefheads who became a captive, strain between United States and Mexico increased, and this contributed to the American-Mexican War to begin in 1846.
