Massacre of Madrid

The City of Madrid was mostly peaceful. Moreso than it had been for some time. In recent years, since the Granadan conquest of Iberia was completed, the city had been a hotbed of insurgency. Out of all the cities in the region, none had more fierce resistance than Madrid. 

It was not just that thousands of the city's inhabitants had taken up arms against their Andalusian and German occupiers, but tens of thousands of civilians supported the rebels in any way they could. Mostly by gathering intelligence on the occupying forces. This was the reason that Berengar had selected Madrid as his target for terror. 

Currently, the banners of the Iberian Catholic League flew high above the city as the rebels tore down those of Al-Andalus. Why were they acting so brazenly? Because the Andalusian and German troops had withdrawn from the city, in an attempt to reinforce the capital of their false Empire. Along with them were the few moors who resided in the city's walls.
