Chalkuchimac has a plan of his own…
Chalkuchimac has a plan of his own and anticipates the action of Topa Atao, a brother and commander of Huascar's forces in war.
Dividing his army in two, Chalkuchimac sends one contingent around Topa Atao's back, enveloping and destroying the defenders.
In January 1532, only miles from Cusco, Huáscar’s retreat is cut off at Quipaipan, the name of the plains west of the city, and his army is annihilated and disbanded.
Huáscar is captured and the capital is seized by Quizquiz, who has it purged of Huáscar’s supporters in a bloody massacre.
