During the war he reached the rank of commander and commanded column 8 Ciro Redondo,which extended the war to the center of the island, precipitating the fall of the dictatorship.

During the Revolution he was appointed President of the National Bank of Cuba and Minister of Industries. He also presided over Cuban delegations that visited various countries and was a representative of the revolutionary government in important international conclaves. During the October Crisis he was appointed military chief of the province of Pinar del Río.

In 1965 he led a guerrilla front in the Congo against the intervention of white mercenaries and their local allies. Failed, the guerrilla movement returned to Cuba and began to organize the revolutionary war in Bolivia. After a campaign of several months, he was taken prisoner by the Bolivian troops in the Yuro ravine and the day after his capture he was assassinated. His remains were located in 1997 and sent to Cuba where they rest in the Comandante Ernesto Che Guevara Memorial Complex that was built for this purpose in the city of Santa Clara
