"The Inca Lesson" (Fiction) "The Demolition of the Inca Empire" Volume 2 Zhang Baotong

When the Spanish soldiers were attacked, they hurriedly retreated to the edge of the slope without touching the depth. However, before they could retreat, General Orgonez stood at the edge of the slope with a long sword in his hand, shouting in a tone of supervision and coercion, "Those who rush up will reward you, and those who retreat will kill you." So, the soldiers who had just retreated had to turn around and rushed towards the other side.

In order to prevent and avoid short arrows and javelins, the Spanish soldiers used their shields as cover and rushed towards the stone gate with the dense rain-like short arrows and javelins shot from the courtyard wall by the Indians. Because the Indians' short arrows were not very lethal, they could only shoot through thicker cotton coats at most, and even if they shot through cotton coats, they would not cause any harm to the human body. Therefore, as long as the other party held a larger shield, no matter how dense the arrows were, they would not pose too much threat to it. So, soon, the infantry in front rushed into the stone gate, entered the yard of the palace, and had a close contact with the Indians. Seeing the infantry entering the courtyard, the Spanish cavalry rushed in immediately.

In this way, the Indians' short arrows and javelins could not be used, and they could only fight against the Spanish with the short axe and javelins in their hands. Of course, the Indians also had some spears similar to those used by the Spanish, which were all imitated based on Spanish spears. However, they were not as skillful as the Spanish. Therefore, when fighting with the Spanish, they were obviously at a disadvantage.

Because of fierce fighting in the backyard, Manco hurriedly mobilized the 500 soldiers prepared to fight against the Spaniards. The Spanish cavalry had already rushed in from outside the stone gate, and the number of people was increasing. So the two armies fought in the wide palace yard. The Indians were all loyal soldiers of the Inca king. Although they were holding short weapons, they naturally struggled against the Spanish soldiers holding long swords and spears. In order to protect the Inca king, they did not hesitate to fight against the Spaniards with flesh and blood. The Spanish were extremely fierce, relying on their weapons, physical and military technology advantages to fight hard and move forward bravely. The Indians were defeated step by step, retreating from the spacious yard to the hall's foyer, and then retreating to the inner room.

When the Inca king, who had been commanding in the front yard, he knew that the Spaniards had attacked the back yard, he knew that he could no longer defend. So he immediately asked Prince Uramaha to lead more than a thousand elite soldiers arranged in the front yard to prepare to break through the front door. He asked the chief guard of the palace to protect several princesses, and then he led the soldiers and princes out of the palace from the stone gate in the front yard of the palace and began to evacuate towards the foot of the mountain in front of the palace.

He asked Uramaha to lead five hundred soldiers holding spears to open the way in front, and he led another five hundred soldiers to follow behind him. He led the horse with his personal guards, and began to pass through the stone gate with several princes and some princes and ministers, walked out of the palace, and walked quickly towards the foot of the mountain. Although the stone steps in front of the palace were very steep, the Indians were very accustomed to walking such a road, so they went down to the foot of the mountain in just a few minutes.

At this moment, a loud military horn sounded throughout the night sky, and then a large number of Spanish cavalry rode their horses towards us. The sudden ambush scared the Indians to death, and they were so scared that they dared not walk forward.

Seeing this scene, Inca King Manco was so scared that he burst into cold sweat and sighed constantly, "It's over!" But he knew that if he couldn't break through immediately and get rid of the Spanish blockade, once the main force of Spain that captured the palace chased him, there would be a dangerous situation of blockage in front and pursued the soldiers behind. At that time, he could only surrender and die. Fortunately, he saw that there were not many Spanish cavalry coming towards him at this time.

So he asked for a horse rope from the guards, stepped onto the war horse in a big way, and then shouted to the soldiers who were at a loss, "The soldiers of the Loyal Inca Empire are now at the moment of our life and death. For our ancient and lovely empire, the soldiers will fight with me!"

The panicked Indian soldiers were immediately greatly encouraged when they heard the call of the Inca king. They rushed towards the Spanish cavalry with spears and short arrows. The two armies immediately fought in a melee. The Indians first shot and threw the Spanish cavalry with short arrows and javelins, and suppressed the fierce impact of the Spanish cavalry, and then started hand-to-hand combat with the Spanish cavalry with spears.

After all, there were many Indian soldiers, so they soon blocked the impact of the Spanish cavalry. So the Inca king rode a horse, took several princesses and princes to break through the gaps and cracks of the two armies' battles. When the Spanish cavalry lieutenant Garcia saw that the Inca king ran away, he pointed to Manco who was riding on the horse and shouted, "Catch the Inca king alive, don't let the Inca king escape." The Spanish soldiers immediately surrounded the Inca king. However, the Indian soldiers fought to the death, making the Spanish cavalry unable to get close to the Inca king.

Manco, who rushed out of Spain to intercept, led the princess and princes, under the cover of a large number of soldiers, and ran along a path deep into the mountains. Behind him, Ulamaha, and nearly a thousand soldiers, retreated and fought against the pursuit of the Spanish.

However, only the Inca king Manco and several princesses rode on horseback, and the princes and soldiers were walking. Therefore, as soon as the Inca king Manco rushed out of the encirclement, he could not care about the others and rushed straight towards a path leading to the deep mountains. After running about three or five miles away, when the Inca king turned back and looked back, he saw that except for Princess Okoro, who had been behind him, the other princesses were no longer visible, and the soldiers behind him were already killed with the Spanish cavalry, which was difficult to resolve. But he knew that he must not stop at this time, because the Spanish would be able to chase him soon. So he shouted to Princess Okoro, "Hurry up, my princess." Okoro responded while panting, "I'm here."

They went up a few slopes, turned a few turns, and looked back, they could not see anything. But they did not dare to relax at all, but continued to gallop forward. Until they ran to a high slope, the horse was so exhausted that they could not run anymore, they dared to stop and take a breath. However, when they just stopped and stood on the high slope and looked down at the mountain, they saw a large group of soldiers running from the path below the mountain.

He thought it was the enemy soldiers who were rushing up and he heard someone shouting to him, "Where is the king?" He heard Uramaha's voice and replied loudly, "The king is here."
