Determined to finish the war, takes charge of a division. The other would be commanded by General Michi, of Hurin Cusco (one of the dried apricots), and the latter would be composed of soldiers Chinchaysuyo. These two would be responsible for attacking the flanks, as a surprise, while the main division would be headed by the Inca himself and would be that would carry more weight in the race.
The battle lasted several days and, after a time, the Inca would give the order to retreat. His troops followed, and after them came the caranguis, who left the fortress with the desire to crush finally the Incas. Just then, the troops who had the strength left flank their respective caches and the three columns attacked the fortress so that the gain achieved completely. Retaliation was, Inca style, very severe. As the historian Raúl Porras Barrenechea, Huayna Capac "wanted to be dreaded night I dreamed that the Indians".
As symbolic data, we can say that Manco Inca recognized the tactic used against him in Hernando Pizarro Battle of Ollantaytambo where his father spent many years before in the land of the caranguis. Knowing well the steps, he could defend well the strength and anticipate the movements of the Spanish captain courageous.
However, the emperor suddenly fall prey to a strange disease, possibly smallpox. As a matter of Garcilaso, Inca predicted the arrival of mysterious travelers who would arrive by sea (story that shows similarity with the arrival of Naylamp Chimu history in the north coast of Peru). The truth is that the Inca came to know of the ships that were exploring the coast and died without obtaining an accurate answer to the identity of travelers. Finally, also died without leaving a clear indication of his succession. The designated somehow became Cuyochi Ninan, a bastard son with great handling of weapons, but also die like his father. Given the seriousness of the situation, there is the figure of the son of the second Coya (the first series did not give the Inca), Huascar Inca, who was in charge of governing the Empire the coming years and the figure of Atahualpa that govern in the north of the empire. Followed by a civil war Atahualpa end of which is imposed on his brother.
The figure of Huayna Capac can be placed on the list of the great rulers of the Empire, with his father and grandfather, while his son Huascar Inca represent the decay. However, away from so much happiness, the truth is that the Empire had already started to crack just before the start of the young Inca government. The bombing of its ruler, and the intrigues of the seraglio, through the rise of the military classes and ending with the relaxation of the nobility (the working poor and not only for the Inca and the Sun, but also had to work for families of those who had been Incas), were signs that something was wrong and an empire that had grown disproportionately faster. While Huayna Capac was loved by all, Grande, which ended up being one of the strongest points for the rivalry between the two cities to reach the reign of Inca Huascar. However, it is undeniable that remained firmly attached to the Empire (to say of a Spanish conquistador, "if the land is not huviera been divided, if not huviera Huayna Capac died, could not enter or win") the product of great leadership , strong will and an admirable courage.
