Siege of Zamboanga
The Siege of Fort Pilar was fought between April and May 1899 on then-town of Zamboanga in Mindanao as a part of the Philippine Revolution. One of the only few actions against Spanish colonials forces in Mindanao, the victory brought about by the Zamboangueño Ethnolinguistic Nation, after their capture of Fort Pilar several weeks later, paved way for the foundation of the short-lived Republic of Zamboanga.
== Background ==
When the Philippine Revolution spread to Mindanao, General Vicente Alvarez organized an army of Christian Filipinos, Tribal warriors, and Muslim Krismen and fought the Spaniards for freedom’s sake.
Alvarez initiated the revolution in Zamboanga, in March 1898. He was able to take control of the peninsula, except the port of Zamboanga and Fort Pilar, which were fortified by the Spanish forces. He then organized the Zamboangueño Revolutionary Government along with his aides-de-camp Felipe Ramos and Melanio Calixto. Calixto was promoted to Major, Ramos as Captain and in command of the two companies assisted by Captain Gowito Sebastian, and Alvarez who was unanimously designated as the general of the revolutionary forces. Together, they constituted the Revolutionary Council.
The Governor-General of Mindanao Island, General Jaramillo, transferred his command to General Montero, ex-governor of Cebu, and left for Manila in December 1898.〔Foreman, J., 1906, ''The Philippine Islands, A Political, Geographical, Ethnographical, Social and Commercial History of the Philippine Archipelago'', New York: Charles Scribner's Sons〕
