Portugal October 5th Revolution 1910. The battle for Lisbon

Portugal October 5th Revolution 1910.
The battle for Lisbon, Republican soldiers waiting to repel an attack from behind their barricade.
Lisbon did not fall into the hands of the Republicans without a desperate struggle on the part of the Royalist troops. Acts of the greatest bravery were accomplished by the Municipal Guard, who fought to the death for their King, and who suffered heavy losses timing the street fighting. The Royalists, indeed, had little chance
of victory, and were eventually overcome by sheer force of numbers. The photograph shows Republican soldiers behind one of the barricades which they erected at all the important points of the city. They are seen waiting to repel an attack from one of the side streets. 5th October 1910
