I had the same effect with just those priests. My conquistadores were charging some Mayans archers with one unit of priests behind the Mayan lines. When those chickens started singing my conquistadores immediately routed. I was happy to stop the route when they reached my lines. Then I ordered my artillery and musketeers to target those singing chickens. After they were finished my cavalry could finish the job. Those Mayans priests are very dangerous when your own general doesn't have a lot of command stars and a lot of dread or chivalry.
