How Gonzalo Pizarro arrived at the city of Cuzco, and how it was resolved by the Spaniards to reconnoitre the force that was at Ur cos, and what happened

When Gonzalo Pizarro had returned to Cuzco, it became known to Hernando Pizarro that Almagro had gone to Yucay to treat for peace with Manco Inca, having left the greater part of his force at Urcos. Hernando, therefore, called a meeting of all the principal people of the city. And there came before him the captains Gonzalo Pizarro, Gabriel de Rojas ¹ , Hernan Ponce de Leon, Pedro del Barco, DIEGO Mendez ¹ , the treasurer Alonzo Riquelme ¹ , Don Alonzo Enriquez ¹ , Pedro de los Rios and others. Hernando Pizarro told them the news he had from the Indians that Almagro had come back from Chile with all the men he had taken from that city. This news, he said, was doubtful, for it seemed to him that as the Adelantado had been so desirous of discovering new lands and had made such a point of it, and considering that he had 500 Spaniards with him, it was not an honourable thing to return to the land he had left without 5seeing or finding such lands, for what he might have discovered would have been of great profit to his friends and allies.
