MTL - Restart Spain-Chapter 33 Battle of Guaromai

Recruitment of labor and construction of the railway proceeded in an orderly manner.

The construction of the Spanish railway is bound to be stained with the blood of the Moroccans. Their misfortune is only because they are too close to Spain, not because they are weaker than other African countries.

In the Caribbean, the main force of the Cuban rebels and the main force of Spain also officially fought against each other in Guaromai.

Because of the Americans' refusal to help, it cannot be blamed that the Americans are unethical. In front of the Spanish regular army, the end of the rebels is already a clear future.

Cannons began to fire salvos towards the rebel positions. Castro ordered the artillery units to use the Xu Jin barrage.

The rebels were not like the religious rebels, who lined up in a neat line towards the regular army and lined up to commit suicide.

A force of 26,000 people huddled in the city, preparing for street battles with the army.

Gomez and Maceo tried to intimidate the residents of the city and threatened the regular army not to use weapons of mass destruction.

And they obviously forgot why they jumped out to resist, isn't it just to resist oppression and unfair treatment?

Castro directly ignored the rebels' conspiracy and ordered the artillery to launch a barrage of Xu Jin barrage directly on Guaromayi.

Guaromai is only a small city, and most of the people in the city are supporters of the rebels. Therefore, in order to mass-kill the living strength of the rebels, Castro ignored the residents of the city without hesitation.

If the regular army suffers more damage because he cherishes the lives of the people who support the rebels, this is unbearable for Castro...

The power of the more than 200 ESP artillery pieces was obviously enormous. The terrifying rate of fire was propelled by Xu Jin's barrage, and Guaymaro seemed to be pushed to the ground.

The rebels have already made preparations. Artillery and machine guns are the two big killers of the regular army, and it is impossible not to take precautions.

"Stop the shelling, shout to the people in the city, and those who surrender can return to their hometowns to continue living. The government has classified the colony as a province, and it will be the homeland in the future."

Castro said to the adjutant that even if it has no effect, it can effectively disintegrate the enemy's will to fight.

After a while, hundreds of loudspeakers started shouting towards the city from all directions.

In the ruined city, a large number of surviving residents ran out, without weapons in their hands, but it was impossible to tell whether their true identities were rebels or civilians.

Castro also had no intention of distinguishing. In this case, the rebel commander's orders could not be passed through quickly, and the people who went out and ran at this time basically belonged to the category of unintentional fighting.

Although the rebel commander in the city was annoyed by what the regular army had done, there was no way to stop it.

After continuing to shout for about an hour, Castro ordered the infantry to start an attack on the city.

The black tide-like regular army wearing m36 military uniforms began to flock to the city, and the Vielib guns were all equipped with bright bayonets.

"Peng"

A gunshot rang out, and a regular soldier fell in place forever, while the rebels who fired were disgraced and bloodstained on their bodies.

Obviously, it is impossible for 26,000 people to hide in the city unscathed. The sound of gunfire was like a signal, and gunshots began to be heard from all sides of the city.

The regular army's Maxim machine gun instantly began to suppress the fire, and the sound of the water droplet-like Vieri rifle also rang out on a large scale.

Apart from being caught off guard at the beginning, the regular army's military quality and weapon advantages are reflected.

Relying on the advantage of being familiar with the terrain, the rebels also began to fight back against the regular army.

Street fighting is one of the most tragic forms of engagement. In this case, regular troops who have no knowledge of the local terrain are most likely to be injured by dark guns in such battles.

For a while, the regular army did not dare to advance rashly and quickly, and could only test and advance slowly.

In the distance, Castro looked at the situation on the battlefield with a telescope, frowning.

"The infantry was ordered to stop advancing, and the artillery continued to carry out continuous shelling in front of our soldiers."

Castro's routine is also very simple. Since you have the advantage of terrain, we will use the advantage of weapons to blast all the terrain you are familiar with into ruins and craters.

At that time, the terrain advantage lies in the soldiers of the regular army.

The artillery shells poured into the rebel positions like raindrops, bombarded for more than an hour, and Guaromayi could no longer see the original appearance.

"Attack!"

Castro waved his hand, and the adjutant immediately informed him of the order to attack.

The infantry began to advance again, and the resistance this time was obviously much easier to resolve than before.

The situation of the war began to develop in favor of the regular army, and Castro's aim was to kill the rebels on a mass scale.

If they are allowed to run away and become guerrillas scattered in various places, it will inevitably have a great impact on the security and stability of Cuba.

Therefore, what the regular army used was to directly surround the small city, advancing from the outside to the inside, and slowly narrowing the encirclement.

Now this small town has lost its former tranquility, and the sound of gunfire and screams fills this fire-filled area~www.novelbuddy.com~ The battle is stalemate, but for the regular army, victory is nothing more than a matter of time.

According to reports after the war, Castro believed that the Cuban newspaper Le Monde would make the regular army the righteous side of the war...

The gunfire that lasted for two days gradually subsided, and the small-scale resistance groups in the city were gradually killed.

When the regular army finally surrounded the area where the rebel leader Cespedes was located, a gunshot in the basement officially announced the end of the "President"'s life.

The last rebels, after Cespedes' suicide, also walked out of the trenches with their hands high.

The military photographer recorded this moment, along with tall and mighty regular soldiers.

This is the most important material for their post-war reports. On the one hand, it promotes the strength of the regular army, and on the other hand, it is also to smear the rebels.

The regular army lost about 4,000 people in this battle. No matter what the advantage of weapons is, the dead are always unavoidable.

News of the victory reached Madrid, and the papers were placed on Alfonso's desk.

The course of the war and the damage were recorded and reported to Madrid.

Alfonso flipped through the documents one by one. When he saw the end, the pages were filled with names. This was the list of fallen soldiers.

Looking at this list, Alfonso can be said to have mixed tastes, although he knows that death cannot always be avoided in war.

"Order Castro to collect the remains of the fallen soldiers, complete the funeral in Cuba according to the Catholic cremation ceremony, and bring them all back to the country."

Being cruel to the Moroccans does not mean being cruel to the basic Spanish. According to the routine of reading novels in his previous life, he thought of a good way to improve the morale of the army and the people...
