Tucapel fort was located on a hill in the coastal mountain
range. In December 1553, Mapuche forces, under the command of
the vice toqui Lautaro attacked and destroyed the fort using the
battle tactics learned from the Spanish. Pedro de Valdivia had
left Concepción with only 50 soldiers and sent a message to
Purén fort to send reinforcements. The message, however, was
intercepted by Lautaro's men.
Valdivia received no reports from his leading element, and spent
the night a half day's journey from Tucapel. On Christmas Day,
December 25, 1553, he left early in the morning for the fort,
arriving in its vicinity with silence reigning. He found it
completely destroyed. Neither Gómez de Almagro nor Bobadilla was
anywhere to be found. He decided to make camp amidst the damp
ruins of the fort, but the contingent had hardly begun to make
preparations when there were shouts from the surrounding forest.
Without advance warning, a mass of Mapuche warriors charged out
towards the Spanish enclave.
A veteran soldier, Valdivia had time to form and arm his
defensive line and repulsed the first attack. The cavalry
charged upon the rearguard of the retreating Mapuche force, but
the Indians were prepared for this action and reversed the
charge with lances. However, with much valor and resolution the
Spaniards managed to drive back the resulting Mapuche surge into
the forest. The Spaniards savored their temporary victory.
There was still more to come, however. A second squadron of
Mapuches attacked, this time armed with maces and ropes as well
as lances, with which they succeeded in dismounting the
unfortunate Spanish caballeros, whom they quickly dragged out of
the battlefield once they were on the ground. The Spanish
managed to drive them back, but not without leaving many fallen.
Then a third group of Mapuches appeared, this time with Lautaro
behind it.
Valdivia, aware of the desperate situation due to the Spanish
losses and fatigue, gathered together his available men and
threw himself into the bitter fight. Already half of the Spanish
forces were casualties and the Indian auxiliaries were steadily
being reduced. Valdivia, seeing that the fight was lost, ordered
the retreat, but Lautaro himself came around the flank and
sealed the Spanish fate. The Indians felled every one of the
Spaniards, and only Valdivia and the cleric Pozo, who rode the
best horses, were able to escape. However, when crossing the
swamps the men became bogged down and the Mapuches eventually
captured them.
Μετα, ομως, τι
εγινε; Τον
φάγανε
ζωντανο!!! :D
According to Jerónimo de Vivar, the toqui Caupolicán personally
ordered the execution of Valdivia, who was killed with a lance
and his head, along with those of the two other bravest
Spaniards, were put on display.[4] Alonso de Góngora Marmolejo
writes Valdivia offered as a ransom for his life that he would
evacuate the Spanish settlements in their lands and give them
large herds of animals, but this was rejected and the Mapuche
cut off his forearms, roasted and ate them in front of him
before killing him and the priest. :) :) :)[5] Pedro Mariño
de Lobera also wrote that Valdivia offered to evacuate the lands
of the Mapuche but says he was shortly after killed by a
vengeful warrior named Pilmaiquen with a large club, saying
Valdivia could not be trusted to keep his word once freed.[6]
Lobera also says that a common story in Chile at the time was
that that Valdivia was killed by giving him the gold that the
Spaniards so desired; however, the gold was molten and was
poured down Valdivia's throat.[6] According to a later legend,
Lautaro took Valdivia to the Mapuche camp and put him to death
after three days of torture, extracting his beating heart and
eating it with the Mapuche leaders.
Following the battle Caupolicán went on to blockade the city of
Valdivia and the few remaining Spanish settlements in the south
of Chile. Lautaro watched the Spanish forces in Concepción, the
center of the Spanish power in southern Chile. The Spanish for a
while were in some disarray as the succession of the
governorship was for a while in dispute between three men.
