November 1846 CE
Taylor, roundly criticized by the military and Polk for agreeing to the armistice, informs Santa Anna that he will terminate the armistice early.
Taylor’s force occupies Saltillo, southwest of Monterrey, on November 16, 1846.
Santa Anna blames the loss of Monterrey and Saltillo on Ampudia and demotes him to command a small artillery battalion.
