"Do you honestly think for a second, that soldiers will hesitate firing on unarmed civilians, if given the order to? "

The army in every revolutionary situation gets divided on a class basis. The army while being an armed body of the bourgeois state, is at the same time composed mostly by workers and peasants. In every revolutionary situation, the army gets divided to those who support the revolution and those who do not. Usually most of the soldiers join the ranks of the revolutionaries and most of the officers and their lackeys the ranks of the reaction.

It is highly idealist of you to think that the members of the army exist in a vacuum. They too are vulnerable to external pressures, ie the force of the revolution .
