They did this by using piracy to control navigation along the Atlantic coast, disrupting the Brazilian slave trade. This was a heavy blow to the Portuguese Empire, which needed slave labor to cultivate sugar and raise livestock, the industries which prevailed on the Atlantic coast of Brazil. As a result of this disruption, the Portuguese plantation owners began to make inroads into the local Indian population to make up for the shortfall in slave labor. Moreover, due to the small quantities of silver, gold and precious stones found in the region of Piratininga, the scouts began to move towards the unknown interior of Brazil. These exploration and slave hunting groups, called bandeiras, were organized and managed as a business for the leading sectors of São Paulo, and their ranks included Mamluks (Portuguese/Indian Mestizos), indigenous Tupi and Dutch who came to Brazil to try their luck. They had the support of Spanish and Paraguayan officials. In their advance toward the west, the frontiersmen never crossed the threshold specified by the <a href="/wiki/Treaty_of_Tordesillas" title="Treaty of Tordesillas">Treaty of Tordesillas</a>. Indirectly, the Bandeirantes of São Paulo became the vanguard of the Portuguese territorial expansion, which was consolidated by recovering Portugal's independence from Spain. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="First_Attacks_on_the_Jesuit_Missions">First Attacks on the Jesuit Missions</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Mboror%C3%A9&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: First Attacks on the Jesuit Missions"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>By decree in 1608, the governor of Asuncion, Paraguay, <a href="/wiki/Hernando_Arias_de_Saavedra" title="Hernando Arias de Saavedra">Hernando Arias de Saavedra</a> ordered the Jesuits to areas surrounding the Parana River, Guayrá and areas inhabited by guaycurúes to found towns and evangelize the natives who inhabited these regions. Later, he included the peoples of Itatin (north of Asuncion) and Tape (the current state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil). </p><p>The Jesuits had begun this evangelization when the frontiersmen began arriving in eastern Guayrá. At first, they respected the indigenous peoples so treated by the Jesuits. However, the Guarani, concentrated in towns and skilled in various trades, represented a highly skilled workforce, defenseless because they could not bear arms as a result of another of the governor's decrees. Beginning in 1620, bandeiras' raids became increasingly aggressive, forcing the abandonment or relocation of some villages. Between 1628 and 1631 the bandeirantes' leaders, <a href="/wiki/Ant%C3%B3nio_Raposo_Tavares" title="António Raposo Tavares">Raposo Tavares</a> and Manuel Antonio Pires Preto and their men periodically struck Guayrá, capturing thousands of Guarani who were then auctioned off at São Paulo. It is estimated that in the years 1628–1629, raids captured some 5,000 Indians, of which only 1,200 reached São Paulo. The vast majority of them died in transit as a result of the slave traders' treatment. By the year 1632, 12,000 Guarani had been forcibly moved south, leaving the Guayrá region virtually deserted, in addition to population reductions in the nearby regions of San Ignacio Mini and Loreto in the territory of the present Province of Misiones. </p><p>The Bandeirantes continued westward, striking Itatin in 1632. Then followed the Tape, invaded during the years 1636, 1637 and 1638 by successive bandeiras Raposo Tavares led by André Fernandes and Fernando Dias Pais. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="The_Jesuits'_Defence"><span id="The_Jesuits.27_Defence"></span>The Jesuits' Defence</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Mboror%C3%A9&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: The Jesuits' Defence"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Montoya's_Mission_to_the_Crown"><span id="Montoya.27s_Mission_to_the_Crown"></span>Montoya's Mission to the Crown</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Mboror%C3%A9&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Montoya's Mission to the Crown"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In 1638, priests <a href="/wiki/Antonio_Ruiz_de_Montoya" title="Antonio Ruiz de Montoya">Antonio Ruiz de Montoya</a> and <a href="/w/index.php?title=Francisco_Diaz_Tano&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Francisco Diaz Tano (page does not exist)">Francisco Diaz Tano</a> traveled to <a href="/wiki/Spain" title="Spain">Spain</a> in order to report to the King <a href="/wiki/Philip_IV_of_Spain" title="Philip IV of Spain">Felipe IV</a> recent events in the missions.
