Why did the Mexican army only have 6100 soldiers at the Alamo?

Question

They only had two Monte Carlos and three Impalas.

Answer 1

Cute joke, I offer this punchline...Crockett had a talk with Santa Anna and his 3050 man Army and said, "This isn't a fair fight, 3050 to 126...You'll have get your butt back across that stream and get more guys!" See! It was only the 3050 re-enforcements that arrived in the two Monte Carlos and three Impalas.

Answer 2

Lighten up, EL INDIO.

Texan rebels were made up of "both" native Mexicans and Americans living under the conditions set forth by the Mexican Constitution of 1824, which labeled Texas as a Mexican state given the authority to govern itself. In 1835, however, Mexico's central government abolished the Constitution forming a new one cutting the power of the Texas government. In the end, this is what caused the uprising. It wasn't an act of the U.S. taking land away from Mexico.

Check this from Wikipedia:
"In the United States at the time, the siege of the Alamo was seen as a battle of American settlers against Mexicans, but many of the ethnic Mexicans in Texas (called Tejanos) in fact sided with the rebellion. Many viewed this struggle in similar terms with the American Revolution of 1776. The Tejanos wanted Mexico to have a loose central government which supported states rights as expressed in the Mexican Constitution of 1824. One Tejano combatant at the Alamo was Captain (later Colonel) Juan Nepomuceno Seguín, who was sent out as a dispatch rider before the final assault."
