The Battle of Xichūtepa (Pre-Old Creeperian: Iyaoyouh Xichūtepa, Old Creeperian: Beadu sylfum Chichutepa, Creeperian Spanish: Batalla de Xichūtepa) was a battle in the city of Xichūtepa, the capital city of the Pre-Creeperian Civilization, on September 15, 537AD during the War of Creeperian Unification. The battle ended in an Amacha victory and established the Old Kingdom of Creeperopolis.

Background

During the Chīhueta-Iloqutzi-Tzachu coaltion defeat by the Amacha at the Battle of Cuyua, Chief Alīxāntzei of the Iloqutzi was killed in action which effectively made the tribe side with the Amacha. Then, in the Battle of Motzocho, Imnoqueti leader Huemoze was ritualy sacrificed following his capture, leading to the Imnoqueti surrender and joining of the Amacha.

Following both battles, the remaining Chīhueta, Llohechue, Tzachu, and Xuhuetī tribes rallied all their forces together to recaptrue Xichūtepa, the capital city of the Pre-Creeperian Civilization. The tribes agreed to attack the Amacha, Iloqutzi, and Imnoqueti forces and force them to flee from the city.

Battle

On September 14, 537AD, the four tribes, under the leadership of Head Chief Ozchaxar, set up their camp on the other side of the Xichūtepa River. The Amacha saw the camp and organized the city's garrison to fight the tribes.

On September 15, 537AD, Ozchaxar's larger army was caught off guard by the forces under Phālihuep early in the morning as half of the garrison had already crossed the river when Ozchaxar's forces were ready. Battle started before the tribes were able to have their ritual breakfast, leaving many of them hungry and unable to effectively fight.

During the battle, Chief Hueztācho of the Llohechue was killed in action by Iloqutzi Chief Huetan. Chiefs Huemotzē and Catzlōche fled the battle field with small groups of warriors, leaving the remainder of their forces to be imprisoned, later to be sacrified, or slaughtered in battle.

According to legend, Head Chief Ozchaxar killed himself when only 50 of his warriors were left fighting. He disemboweled himself to prevent himself from being paraded around and sacrificed by Phālihuep. The battle ended before noon and Phālihuep secured his place as ruler of the land. On that day, he established the Old Kingdom of Creeperopolis and declared himself Tlahtoani, or King.

Aftermath

Following the battle, Phālihuep declared himself Tlahtoani, or King, of the Old Kingdom of Creeperopolis. Under him, the Creeperian language left its phase of Pre-Old Creeperian and transitioned into Old Creeperian with the influence of the Pope who came to Creeperopolis in 540AD and converted the nation from Creeperian Paganism to Christianity, which would eventually become the Creeperian Catholic Church.
