		By establishing a municipality, he could "reluctantly" proceed to claim land for king Charles V of Spain by popular mandate of the city magistrates he had appointed, his friends.
		The local Totonac from Cempoala greeted him with gifts of food, feathers, gold – and women, who always had to be baptized before the eager Spanish soldiers were allowed to let them "fix supper for them" ("grind their corn").
		He learned that the land was ruled by the great lord in the city of Tenochtitlán.

	Pfinfilo de Narvaez
		In 1520, Velasquez, being envious of Cortes's success in Mexico, and displeased at the latter's resistance to his authority, prepared an expedition against him, and appointed Narvaez commander.
		Sailing from Havana in March, 1520, the latter landed on 23 April at San Juan d'Ulda, and took and fortified Cempoala, where Cortes tried to open negotiations with him.
		But Narvaez demanded complete submission, and on 26 May, 1520, was defeated by Cortes, severely wounded, and kept a prisoner for several months in Vera Cruz.
