it seemed guerilla may be used both for organisation and fighter but if not it might be guerilla fighter as in youtube translation
you are most possibly right about my grammar
maybe we shall be killing is another possibility

Notes
(1) and: literally should be "to", but I used to know that in correct English one must use instead "go and {verb}" or "go {verb}ing", in this case I prefer the first.
(2) companions: I used this 'vox media' instead of "comrades" because the guerrilleros aren't communists or fascists and in Italian while "camerata" means "companion-in-arms" and is the fascist-specific term of address, "compagno" isn't communist-specific, is a common word (it's used even between children and between the partisans of Radical Party, the libertarian one); I supposed in Spanish it's the same, so the uncoloured term.
(3) red: as in "blood", no correletion with "paint the town red". (note: "rojo[space]sol y cielo" more probable without "s")
(4) you: impersonal, to be clearer I could have used "one", but I prefer "you".
(5) gain: the Spanish "ganar" actually means "gain, earn", I think it's used as "gain (even a little) victory for the final victory".
(6) winning: this is my worry because there's no sense in wishing death during victory, I think it's used as "winning against an enemy" therefore "doing the best".
