Um, in 90, a hundred degree weather that doesn't work.

Uh, they, they, they very quickly, the ones who are wealthy enough to even have them probably shed most of them because you're not, you're in a tin, you're in a can basically in the heat.

So most of them are wearing padded armor, just like the Aztecs are.

Their guns are terrible.

They don't even have that many of them, but their guns are terrible.

They have some war dogs.

They have some horses.

But they're outnumbered, I mean.

They're outnumbered by like thousands and thousands and thousands of people, right?

So so maybe they up their numbers at a certain point, a little bit more, but not not much.

Well, yeah, we get to that.

But the initial things.

Right.

So when you hear about sort of the Spanish marching on Tenerife lawn, they do march on the Capitol, but they march with themselves and like tens of thousands of indigenous warriors with them.

So it's not like the Aztecs, you know, like the Spanish are far, far outnumbered and they have way more indigenous allies than you would normally think, right?

And yeah, disease, they get there in 1519 and they still get spanked.

So the Aztecs basically trapped them in the palace and forced them to flee.

And they let them go.

And had the Aztecs actually, had the imperial forces at least, pursued the Spanish and actually killed them, that would have been the end.

But they didn't.
