Answer: c. Prepared for battle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The commander of Coahuila at the time of the Anahuac revolt was Colonel Juan Davis Bradburn and he had arrested Patrick Jack and William Barret Travis which added to a list of perceived provocations by the Mexican authorities according to the Anglo-American Texans.

The immediate result of this was the gathering of a civilian force which readied itself for battle if the men were not released. Through some diplomacy however, an open rebellion was avoided at the time.
