Actually the Mexican Army was larger than the US Army at that time we just had much better officers many of the lower staff officers went on to become generals during the Civil War.

So the might was on the Mexican side they had more full time soldiers than the US did.The US on the other hand had better disciplined soldiers that did not break so easily.We actually could have taken over the Mexican government and in effect taken over all of Mexico so we where actually behaving kindly by standards the of that time.
