Cortéz's army was actually fairly small, he had to forge alliances with other peoples who felt animosity towards the Aztecs, so you'll probably have to convince all of them too, I don't think you'll make it in an hour tbh . Not sure about whether he was seen as divine, rather than they never imagined that Cortéz would eventually bring a massive empire behind him, truthfully it's a bit hard to imagine.
From what I recall the alliance consisted of about 2,000 conquistadors and like 200,000 soldiers from nations at the periphery of the Aztec empire. Cortez didn't so much conquer the Aztecs as he provided a catalyst for the formation of a huge army that took down the Aztecs.
Cortez was only able to do what he did because he was heading up a coalition army of about 200,000 Tlaxcalans. It's a bit more complicated than just sinking his ships.
