Overview:
Led in the field by Colonel Carlos Asensio and Major Antonio Castejón, the Nationalist Army dashed north in motorized detachments, pausing to bombard and capture walled frontier towns. By August 10, when Lieutenant Colonel Juan Yagüe arrived to take command near Mérida, the Nationalists had secured 300 km of the Portuguese frontier. Mérida fell after a stiff fight on the banks of the Guadiana River, leaving the neighboring city of Badajoz, now the last remaining Republican outpost on the Portuguese border, isolated from the Republic. Before the attack, Badajoz was continuously bombarded by Nationalist artillery and bombers for three days. The rebels, coming from the East, launched their attack on the morning of August 14, after shelling the town again.Attacker: Nationalist (16 a. Compana, 4 a. Bandera de Tercio, de Extranjeros, Ejercito de Africa)
Defender: Republican (Elements of Ejercito de Estremaudura)
