Briefly after consolidating power in Yuqataan, the explorers transported their ships to the west coast, and began exploring that side of al-Majhool. They travelled south where they encountered yet another large empire. By this time, another shipment was sent to Majhool, one containing spies from Nidham al-Adl. Their responsibility was to scout the landscape of this mountainous region and map it out. Their mission was intended to last two months.
At the end of their mission, they met up at a secluded coastline near Tuqumeh, a small city under the hegemony of the Incan empire. They reveal their maps, and also reveal to us that one of them has been caught and executed for being suspicious. We will avenge him. After the recent conflict with the Aztaqa, it seems apparent to us now that it will be hard to trust the natives of these lands. The Inca might also be sacrificing human beings for the sake of whatever statues they worship.
They displayed to us their mapping of the region, and that is when we started drawing battle plans:
There is a small island just off the coast, explorer, which has a moderate amount of fishing and lumber. We can establish our base of operations there. From here, we want to land in this region, just between the city of Tuqumeh and Shan-shaan, as the natives call it. We have made deals with some of the locals of this region who wish to overthrow the Inca and establish their own kingdoms.
We attack Shan-shaan first, explorer. This city is controlled by the Incans who do not fear something like this happening, so their defenses will be down. Their cities are heavily fortified with the most astounding type of architecture, strong enough to halt earthquakes in their traps. We will need heavy siege equipment to traverse these fortifications.
Next, we need to move up north and attack the city of Tuqumeh. They will without doubt see us as a threat, so we need to subdue them before they amass a military that is larger than we can handle. Remember, we are limited on manpower here. The hills give them an advantage, so tread carefully, explorer.
After we secure the north, we must quickly change direction and head south towards the city of Kaqonatambu. I suggest you leave some of our troops in the Island base and transport them to the north of the city, and begin to push. The superb roads these people have made should allow us to march quickly. There are several strongholds that the Incas have in the mountains, but I advise not attacking those until we receive another shipment. We are not experienced at mountain warfare."
Within months, the explorers managed to subdue a large part of the coasts of these lands, the Andes. With Yuqataan and the Andes under firm control, the Ummah will be ever larger.
