"Fuego!Francisco,Kunin mo ang mga sugatan!(Fire!Francisco,get the wounded)"Liutenant Zayas said as we retreatred to the church.I used my Mauser Gewehr 1898 to shoot at Republican Soldiers.I got 3 Wounded Guardia Civil Soldiers to the church.We (50 Soldiers) went to the church to fortify it.There is a ceasefire.More 400 Republican(filipino) Soldiers arrived."Gutom na tayo!"Zayas said as the Cook served Meat and Bread and Wine to us.Then i reload my Mauser and looked at the window.I saw 2 Guys (Filipinos) Trumpeting and one has a paper.I went out with a white flag and took the paper.It says surrender.But we fought.We have a Mass to have Guidence and Wisdom.Then the Balerians complained they are not in a mass so they went to the mass and we hide.
