Moctezuma informs Cortés that a much larger party of Spaniards consisting of nineteen ships and fourteen hundred soldiers under the command of Pánfilo de Narváez had arrived.

Narváez had been sent by Governor Velázquez from Cuba to kill or capture Cortés.

Leaving his two hundred "least reliable soldiers" under the command of Pedro de Alvarado to guard Moctezuma in Tenochtitlan, Cortés sets out against Narváez, who has advanced onto Cempoala.
