Despite the news that Italy were pushed back in Barcelona, the 3rd's morale was still high, and were preparing an attack that would push the Spanish even further inland. half an hour of aerial bombardment followed by 10 minutes of artillery barrages destroyed the morale of Spanish troops. The army continued its normal way of attacking, with Panzers outflanking them and infantry surrounding the enemy, forcing them to break out of the circle with great casualties or surrender. This was repeated severaltimes before nightfall, and the Italians gained 20 miles of countryside and villages.
Now, Italy commenced Operation Thunderstorm; a operation that will decide Spain's fate. The 64rth army, 33rd airborne and 2nd Pratonis gear up to take place in the most largest airborne operation at that time. The 2nd and 64rth armies will land in Madrid while the 33rd will land in the French-Spanish border, to help the french enter Spain.
Madrid
The Italians were scattered all across Madrid, many of which were seperated from their group and fought alone or with others from other units. At first, the battle was confusing, as the Spanish did not know what was going on, and the paratroops were disorganized. It took a while for the Spanish to start attacking, and by that time the Pratonis had already captured the city square. The Pratonis were among the elite of Europe, and found it very easy to fight weak Spanish concripts. Madrid is now in total anarchy.
