I have to agree with Uskok, not even the screenplay available at Wordplay describes such a sequence with an ambush or Spaniards. The only possibility (assuming it's true) is that it could be one of many ideas considered for DMC/AWE that wasn't the final product. However, I do not believe that is the case...unless of course someone of higher power (i.e. Disney or Bruckheimer) were to confirm it, which I doubt, or maybe they'll mention it as a backstory in P5. But again, with the information presented, I think the DMC-related info is bogus.

Love the pictures though! Either the Spaniards are ghosts or are in need for more sun.
