SPANISH WARFARE.

Rout of Italians. Press Association—Copyright. Madrid, March 20. The Government announced to-day that troops had entered 'Navalpotro, 15 miles l north-east of Brihuega. "We are on the road to triumph,” declared General Miaja. “We are not afraid of tin soldiers sent to Spain by Hitler and Mussolini.” “The rout of Italians is complete at Guadalajara and many members of the Black Feather Battalion have been captured,” declares a Government communique. “Despite sleet in the front lines, the Loyalists, ~n<e deep in mud, pressed on their bigger tanks defeating the Italian tanks and advancing within six miles of Siguenza. "llhe Italians’ flight v.'as disorderly.” After the delivery of the bayonet charge which captured Brihuega, the loyalists, maintaining the initiative, gained possession of seven adjacent villages, icluding Villa Viciosa. They then resumed aerial attacks upon the shaken and retreating remnants of the two insurgent, columns. Government supporters claim that Brihuega if the greatest victory of the war. The News-Chronicle’s Madrid correspondent asserts that General Mia ja’s rout of the Italians has crippl'd the rebel attack indefinitely, has postponed the fall of Madrid and swung the insurgents’ onslaught round as much as the battle of the ~ame turned the German drive on Paris in 1914.
