The January 1, 1994, to take the city of San Cristobal, Subcomandante Marcos should clearly summarize odd lots the instructions to the EZLN. "Our odd lots order is to reach all the places where we can. When they have already taken some other places we will go. " So he wrote with paint on the wall of a house in San Cristobal: Thanks for everything to everyone. Thanks coletos. We went to Rancho Nuevo. After Tuxtla. odd lots There will be no rest. The purpose of all these shots was to trigger the uprising in Mexico.
The EZLN's war plan in 1993 was later revealed by Salvador Morales, the Deputy Daniel, who after leaving the country, fought Marcos, odd lots would return to work with state security agencies. Morales's testimony is consistent with other collected between former Zapatistas interviewed twenty years in the Canadas of the Lacandon Jungle. According to them, the 1st Regiment of the EZLN, commanded by Major Moses would advance by Las Margaritas to Comitan, then continue their movement, under the orders of Subcomandante Pedro, to the end of the 31st Military Zone. In turn, the 3rd Regiment, odd lots commanded by Major Mario, occupy the seat of Ocosingo, without colliding with the Army, to be ambushed on the road from Palenque by men of greater Joshua. Joshua orders after that mission, were to destroy railway Salto de Agua, then threaten wells and refineries Ciudad Pemex in southern Tabasco. The 5th Regiment, one of the largest, commanded by Major Alfredo, would by Chanal and Altamirano with instructions to participate later in the actions of Rancho Nuevo. Alfredo a Tzeltal Ocosingo with school studies, was reputed to be the best prepared odd lots of the EZLN box. Beside him in the action odd lots plan, the 7th Regiment, commanding the largest Yolanda, come up with Marcos San Cristobal de Las Casas. odd lots Yolanda be known by the press during the outbreak, with the name of Ana Maria. She was the wife of Subcomandante Marcos.
The aim of the guerrillas was to take Rancho Nuevo, and then, armed in the barracks, marching in the direction of Tuxtla. Already conceived, since the spring, the roadblocks that would slow the passage of the army. Their controls, odd lots nevertheless, had doubts about the operations. "We had learned to fight, but we had never really done," he would confess. "Also, we were going to a land that was not ours: the enemy's ground." Subcomandante Marcos have estimated eighty men, among officers, insurgents and to direct recruits, more than four thousand militiamen. There were many, but nothing about two thousand were armed with rifles, and only a few hundred rifles and submachine guns (mainly SKS and Sten). Other troops of the EZLN, five hundred, would not participate in the actions of the Highlands; wait in the jungle, in charge of the rear guard, odd lots under the command of Major Rolando, a mestizo working-class, odd lots transformed in Monterrey.
The war plans of the EZLN in Chiapas, ie also in the Southeast Front-contemplated actions in the Northern Front and the Front for-Central. In the Northern Front members had no resources or sympathizers were locked in a safe house, without outside contact. Under these conditions they could not do anything in support of Subcomandante Marcos. It would be more effective giving him support cells Para-Central Front. There, the Zapatistas made at least an appearance. They had enough to perform actions of revolutionary propaganda men, so instead, undertook sabotage operations: a series of towers topple the Federal Electricity Commission. Were all located in the center of the country, some in Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz, others in Tehuacan, Puebla, some more in Uruapan, odd lots Michoacan. You had to make the most of having guerrilla presence in that part of the country. The mountains of Central Para-Front offered, certainly less tactical advantages, but more strategic possibilities Glens South-Eastern Front. -Carlos Tello Diaz
