In April 1915 Pancho Villa's Division of the North attacked the forces of General Obregon supporting Carranza at Celaya. Obregon let Villa expend his forces in attacks on trenches based on those being used in the European war. However reading about the battle I find at one point Obregon's suboedinates did not think it was going well and wanted to withdraw--and it is likely Villa would've chewed them up in a pursuit.
POD: Obregon does withdraw and is chewed up. I am assuming that means Villa can take Mexico City. What happens next? Do Carranza and Obregon give up? Or does Obregon make a deal and sell out Carranza. And what about Zapata in the south? Adding to the mess the Germans were still trying to reinstall Heurta during this period?
