The turbulent times of the chinese empire

So my Civ game got interesting real quick. The Aztecs declared war on my the turn after I took my previous screenshot of my lovely empire.
Here is their invasion force:

As you can see there surprise attack hurts my spearman quiet badly. But they took heavy looses attacking over the river. Their catapults are looming in the distance setting up an attack.
My counter attacks

My swift counter attack with arrows raining down on their jaguar warriors were devastating. Without any cover and minimal armor hundreds fell to my "black rain" as they called it.
Finally Peace

10 turns passed between this screenshot and the last. Many lives were lost and battles were brutal. Attacks and counter attacks along the river left it with the nickname "red run river". However peace was made with the Aztecs. Knowing they were beaten they offered a nice peace settlement of 400 gold and their luxury resources. Being a wise ruler I promptly accepted.
Whats this?!

The same turn I made peace with the Aztecs I look to my northern boards only to find a hoard of swedes on the march! That scout hiding so well in the forest earned him self a huge medal that day. Time to reposition my tired forces for yet more war! To ARMS!!!
