ABSTRACT
We have already related how the Governor Don Francisco Pizarro set out from the City of the Kings with 400 Spaniards, horse and foot, taking as his captains Felipe Gutierrez and Diego de Urbina, with the object and intention of bringing 45help to the city of Cuzco, whence he had not received any news for many days. He was consequently very anxious, feeling deeply the troubles his brothers must have passed through during such a long siege, and he had some fear that they might have all been killed. He ordered that long marches should be made, first by the way of the plains.
