Usikuwo unayang'ana maola ake akuda ndikutekeseka kwankhuni pamoto. Chiwombankhanga chimayang'ana pamtengo kuti chithandizire kulimbana ndi mbandakucha, koma mphamvu yake yamatsenga sinadziwonetsebe, popanda nkhani yochokera kwa mizimu yayikulu ya Sioux.
Sizikanatheka kuti Amwenye akale akufa anamusiya usiku umenewo, pamene chisankho choukira Fort San Francisco chinali m’manja mwake. Anzeru ena asanu ndi mmodzi aja anadikira mozungulira moto kuti aone chizindikiro chawo; ena a iwo anayamba kuyang’ana m’mwamba. Maso ake opendekeka, pomwe zojambula zake zoyipa zankhondo zidachokera, zidafuna kudodoma monga momwe amachitira anzake.
Kumbuyo kwa amuna anzeru opatsidwa mwayi, ankhondowo mopanda chipiriro ankayembekezera harangues ya makolo awo ndi mavumbulutso awo okhudza mdani. Nkhope ya ankhondo amenewa inachititsa mantha; Maso ake ananyezimira pa kuvina kwa moto komwe kunkachitika mu kuya kwa ana ake; zojambula zomwezo monga za akulu awo, zidawakokera zizindikiro za imfa. Kusiyanitsa kotereku kunkagwiritsidwanso ntchito pazifuwa zawo zolimba komanso minofu yolimba ya mikono yawo yopingasa.
Kukongola kumeneko ndi mwambo wake wachisoni, zidachitika chifukwa chodziwa zamatsenga mozungulira moto wamoto zidapatsa mtundu wa Chiwombankhanga ukulu wankhondo kuposa mafuko ena ambiri. Nkhondo ya ankhondo achi Sioux ovutawo adabadwa mwachizolowezi. Kusaka m'mapiri komanso kusodza ku Río Plata sikunali kokwanira kuti munthu akhale ndi moyo wabwino. Kusunthika koyenera kudawapangitsa kufalikira kudambo.
Panali pakati penipeni pa phiri lalikulu lomwe a Sioux anali kukumana usiku womwewo. Onsewa adapanga bwalo lalikulu kuzungulira moto. Potero amapewa likhweru losalekeza la mphepo yamchigwa. Mphepo yamphamvu yomwe idagunda kumbuyo kwa asitikali omwe adayimilira kunja kwa mphete yamunthu ndipo idabwera modekha, idasefa dontho, mpaka pamoto.
Águila anakhalabe pakati pa aliyense; anabisa mantha ake omwe anali kukula mwa kupuma mozama, ngati kuti anali pafupi ndi msonkhano wofunika kwambiri. Komabe, anakhalabe wokwanira. Ankangomva kuti miyendo yake yadutsana ndipo zigongono zake zinali pa mawondo ake. Anamva mmene chikopa cholimba cha njati chinkasisita chikopa cha nsana wake ndi kufinya mkhwapa. Ndinamva, ndinawona ndi kuzindikira moto ukukwera, nsalu yoweyula ya thupi la kuyaka, mtundu wake, kutentha kwake.
Ndi mantha akulu, Mphungu idakwezanso mawu ake pakupempha. Poyang'anizana ndi izi, kung'ung'udza pang'ono kusamvetsetsa sikungathetseke. Sanayambebe kuyitanitsa mizimu Mphungu katatu.
Komabe, masekondi angapo pambuyo pake, mizimuyo idafika, ndipo mwamphamvu zachilendo. Mphepoyo, yomwe idayimitsidwa kale ndi khamulo, idakwera pamitu ya onsewo, ndikukwera kubowo lapakati ndikuzimitsa moto wamwamuna ndi kuwomba kolondola. Mitengoyi inkayenda mozungulira, yowala koma yopanda moto. Mphekesera zomwe zidakulirakulira zidalengeza zakusokonezedwa kwamdima mwadzidzidzi.
"!!Mizimu ikufuna kuyankhula!!" anakuwa Águila ndi mawu amphamvu amene anafalikira m’chigwa chonsecho, kuletsa kunong’ona kwachangu ndi kamphindi kalikonse kakuyenda. Pamene mkokomo wake unasiya, palibe chomwe chinafalikira ndi maonekedwe akuda a usiku. Kukula kwa chigwacho kunkawoneka kuti kunatsekedwa ndi kuyandikira kwachilendo kwa usiku wotsekedwa, kumene manja ena, ophwanyidwa ndi zochitikazo, anafikira kukhudza zinthu zachinsinsi zokha.
Mu ukulu wogwidwa ndi mdima ngakhale mphepo sinawombe, ngakhale pang'ono. Nyenyezi zokha zikanatha kusiyanitsa kuti zinali kutchire. Kwa masekondi angapo palibe chomwe chidamveka, palibe chomwe chidawoneka, palibe chomwe chidachitika. Chidziwitso chosaneneka chinayenda mumdima, ndikutumiza chipwirikiti mkati mwa bata la zochitika zosayembekezereka.
Kuwala kwa moto kunawunikiranso pomwe anali atazimitsidwa, kumawunikira Mphungu yokha ndi mtundu wonyezimira wofiyira. Aliyense amatha kuyang'anitsitsa wamasomphenya wakale. Chithunzi chake chidatulutsa mthunzi wautali wofotokozedwa mozungulira wamakona atatu.
Mizimuyo idabwera ndi mphamvu yosadziwika usiku womwewo. Amuna anzeru asanu ndi mmodziwo adayang'ana mwamantha paulendo wapadera womwe anali nawo wamasomphenya. Kwa ena onse, zonse zidachitika monga nthawi zonse, liwu laphokoso lochokera kwina lidatulukira kukhosi kwa Águila:
“M'bandakucha wa mawa udzawabweretsa mbalame zachitsulo zomwe zipse moto m'mizinda yayikulu yonse. Mzungu wamng'ono azilamulira dziko lapansi, ndipo adzafuna kufafaniza mitundu ina padziko lapansi. Misasa yakufa ndiyo yomwe idzakhale chilango chake chomaliza. Zaka zakufa, misala ndi chiwonongeko zidzabwera mdziko lakale losadziwika ”.
Águila anafalitsa uthenga wosamvetsetseka pamene manja ake akhungu akuyang'ana pansi, kufunafuna imodzi mwa nthambi zomwe zidamwazikanabe mu nkhuni. Anatenga imodzi mwa izo kumapeto kwake ndipo anailozera pa mkono wake wakumanja.
“Muyenera kuyimitsa mzunguyo, chizindikiro cha gulu lake lankhondo ndi mtanda wabodza womwe mikono yawo yakhotama bwino. Chitani izi nthawi isanathe ... mumuyimitse nthawi isanathe. "
Pambuyo pamawu omaliza aja, moto unazimitsidwanso ndipo Mphungu inagwa chagada pansi. Pamene anzeru ena asanu ndi mmodzi adayiyitsanso moto wamoto, Mphungu idawonetsa swastika padzanja lake, samamvetsa tanthauzo lake, koma mizimu idalengeza zoyipa zake.
Anzeru aja adalengeza kuti adali nacho kale chizindikirocho, mbandakucha adayenera kuyang'anizana ndi mzunguyo mopanda mantha kuti athetse chizindikiro chake. Ankhondowo anavina mozungulira motowo. Maola angapo pambuyo pake, mbandakucha, ambiri a iwo amafa popanda phindu ndi mfuti zamphamvu za Winchester, asanayandikire ku Fort San Francisco.
Kumapeto kwa chiwembucho, mphepo yamphamvu ya mizimuyo inawukanso, inalimba mluzu mokwiya kuphedwa kwa ana ake. Mpaka zifuwa zopanda kanthu za ankhondo, akunama ndi kupuma, anakwiriridwa ndi fumbi.
Palibe aliyense wa Asioux amenewo amene anadziŵa kuti kulimbana kwawo koyamba pankhondo yolimbana ndi azungu, okhala ndi mfuti, kunalibe cholinga. Iwo ankakhulupirira kuti mizimu inawalimbikitsa kuti amenyane. Uthenga wa motowo unali womveka kwa iwo.
Koma mizimuyo sinalankhule za nkhondo imeneyo, kapena nkhondo iliyonse yomwe Sioux angadziwe m'miyoyo yawo yonse. Uthengawu unali utaperekedwa kwa zaka zambiri, mpaka 1939, tsiku limene nkhondo yachiwiri yapadziko lonse inayambika ndi Adolf Hitler.
