The war is a disaster for Solano…

1864 CE to 1875 CE

The war is a disaster for Solano López apart from some Paraguayan victories on the northern front.

The core units of the Paraguayan army reach Corrientes in April 1865

By July more than half of Paraguay's thirty thousand-man invasion force has been killed or captured along with the army's best small arms and artillery.

The war quickly becomes a desperate struggle for Paraguay's survival.
