Carlos I of Spain and V of Germany In the spring of 1520 the future Charles V planned his trip to Germany in order himself crowned emperor. The kingdom saw with disgust the preparations for this trip: everyone saw in the absence of Don Carlos the beginning of great anxiety, the most important cities of Castile sent their deputies to make change of purpose, but neither this nor the prayers and tender entreaties of his subjects were likely to alter their plans. It was March 5, 1520, when Charles V wanted to leave Valladolid, the city is believed helpless and tried to stop it. Canesi wrote:
"... And this confusion insurgents, without understanding, a cordonero, Portuguese nation, other say pretinero, a resident of this city, seeing that Caesar was marching, not daring to beg anyone to stop, climbed the tower of the parish of San Miguel and rang the bell that called the council, which used to play in times of war and rebates, and weapons that were given, and touched in such a hurry, as I overheard the people without reason or knowing why, took up arms ... "
Citizens (Sangrador says about five thousand armed men) came to the door and tried to retain Campo emperor, but could do nothing against Charles V left guard and Valladolid. The city was embarrassed and ashamed by what happened and his anger was implacable to blame:
"... mitigated popular fury that made the justice information who rang the bell and sent him, but could not be found ... Portuguese; but by then I paid for it as others about cut feet, others whipped, banished, and others left their property confiscated, others were demolished houses and a silversmith honored whipped because he proved he had received some letters from Portuguese ... "
