Mexican Army

The  is a faction in Red Dead Redemption.

Background
The Mexican Army (Spanish: Ejército Mexicano) is the land branch and largest of the Mexican military services; it is also known as the National Defense Army. It is famous for having been the first army to adopt and use an automatic rifle, (the Mondragón rifle), in 1899, and the first to issue automatic weapons as standard issue, in 1908.

Interactions
John meets the Mexican Army in the mission Civilization at any Price, which is led by Colonel Agustin Allende, Captain Vincente de Santa, Captain Espinoza and overseen entirely by General Ignacio Sanchez. They help Marston in killing the rebels later on, except during Allende's betrayal and Espinoza's death. The army will attack Marston and the rebels until Allende is killed. After Allende is killed, the army will return to neutral and will not attack Marston after that. However, in many areas (notable exceptions being Torquemada and El Matadero), soldiers are replaced by rebels as the main law enforcement.

The army also chases Marston if his bounty is high enough. The player may know that the Mexican Army chasing them, hinted by a message pop-up "Mexican Soldiers have picked up your trail", like the U.S Marshals.
