- Abstract
After the defeat of the Peruvian Auxiliary Army in Vilcapugio and Ayohuma in late 1813, the Royal Peruvian Army occupied the City of Salta for the second time. The strategy designed by Dorrego and implemented by San Martín to develop in the Salto-Jujeño territory a war of resources similar to that took place in the provinces of Alto Peru favored the return of Martín Miguel de Güemes to the ranks of the Auxiliary Army and his appointment as Head of the Vanguard. Between 1814 and 1821, the year of his death, the political and military prominence of Güemes enabled loyal support and important oppositions by the Heads of the local militias as of the Infernales, a Command Corp organized by the Governor in September 1815. In this sense, it is proposed to address the strategies that empowered him to lead the war, but also to observe the contradictions and disputes that were addressed in the military sphere by building and sustaining different political projects.
