El enemigo invisible<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Triste o victoriosa, la noche del 29 al 30 de junio hab\u00eda sido moralmente devastadora para los espa\u00f1oles. Al tiempo que Cort\u00e9s lamentaba sus bajas y se replegaba hacia Tlaxcala, en Tenochtitlan hab\u00eda un \u00e1nimo de gloria: el ej\u00e9rcito invasor no era invencible, y Cuitl\u00e1huac, el nuevo tlatoani, estaba dispuesto a continuar con los embates.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Lo que el pueblo mexica, entre celebraciones, ignoraba, era que un enemigo invisible hab\u00eda comenzado su asedio. La viruela, enfermedad contagiosa que se manifiesta con \u00e1mpulas o sarpullido, hab\u00eda descendido de los barcos espa\u00f1oles y se extend\u00eda por toda Mesoam\u00e9rica, atacando principalmente a los adultos j\u00f3venes.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Cuitl\u00e1huac pasaba de los cuarenta a\u00f1os cuando de manera decidida se convirti\u00f3 en l\u00edder de su pueblo. La noche de la victoria hab\u00eda confirmado sus aptitudes militares; pero mientras el ej\u00e9rcito espa\u00f1ol se recuperaba en Tlaxcala, el tlatoani cay\u00f3 v\u00edctima de la viruela. El \u00e1nimo de la poblaci\u00f3n mexica, sin defensas contra la nueva enfermedad y sin dirigente, se vino abajo.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
