Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

Chapter 525: The attacking fleet

There are cool breezes on the Mediterranean Sea, and the weather in June is calmer here than in the Pacific Ocean. However, on June 5th, the Mediterranean Sea was not so peaceful.

"Zamora, prepare to command the team. This time, we want to show others that this time our Spanish Navy is not as weak as others always say, especially when they always say When we were weaker than Britain and Germany."

"Yes, Captain" Zamora looked at David Villa and responded loudly with admiration in his eyes.

So he said loudly to the side: "Correct the position, increase the angle 10 degrees to the left and front, and it will be about five kilometers away from us."

As soon as Zamora finished speaking, the flagship of the fleet suddenly appeared next to it, so he turned left following the flag of the flagship. Once again, this time the Spanish mixed fleet sailed towards Port Brega. And the cannonballs fell one by one, and the cannon smoke on the sea was blown away in confusion. The smoke of gunpowder caused wars everywhere and made the situation miserable.

"After the order was passed, each ship prepared for action. The fleet moved twenty kilometers westward. The X2 submarine team began to search for the situation ahead, and the rest ordered the remaining ships to prepare.

"Report, everything is ready"

"Ready"

"Ready"

"Report, x2 found no trace of the enemy in the front"

David Villa excitedly ordered Zamora: "Continue to the preview direction 020, the advance standard is 020, start. Prepare for two rounds of rapid launch."

"Ready," Zamora said loudly after reading the flags of each ship.

David Villa: "Ready, Launch"

Following this order, battleships began to be blown to pieces one by one on distant targets, and some were even seen in the distance, where the order was about to be fulfilled.

This makes people feel a little sad.

Among them is the current Venezuelan President Gomez.

"Spain is so powerful. Sure enough, I made the right choice at the beginning. As the relationship with Spain has developed over the years, Spain has now made Venezuela's economy more developed, and my family, It has also firmly occupied the top position in Venezuela's real political and business circles. As long as the agreement between Lake Maracaibo and Spain continues to be maintained, Spain will continue to discover Venezuela's role in the Spanish energy landscape. Especially in the oil industry Reaching a coordination of interests in satisfying Spain's appetite will allow Venezuela to continue to become an important ally of Spain, and even more supported by Spain than Venezuela's current rival, Mexico.

I believe that soon, Venezuela will be Spain’s fifth ally in South America. Even becoming the second largest ally after Portugal is not impossible."

Thinking of the various benefits Portugal has received, especially the fact that Portugal's economy is now as good as the per capita income of countries such as Britain, Germany, the United States, and France, this makes Gomez even a little nervous. No, it should be said that it is because of excessive excitement. right.

He looked again at the fleet that seemed to be moving slowly but was actually advancing rapidly under the gunpowder smoke not far away. At this moment, he seemed to be the captain of the fleet, letting any enemy be quickly hit by his own cannon at will. Rapid destruction.

For the first time, he discovered that he actually had a dream of a Venezuelan fleet deep in his heart.

Not far away, Mexican President Francisco Leon de la Vala's current mood was even more expressive on his face.

Mexico is different from Venezuela. Although Venezuela is also in the Caribbean, compared with Mexico, Venezuela's position is more stable because now Venezuela has discovered a huge oil field in Lake Maracaibo, and it is still The kind that is simple and easy to mine, so now Venezuela has allowed the Spanish fleet to dock at the port of Lake Maracaibo from time to time, nominally because Spain has important interests there, but who doesn’t know that this Venezuela wants to protect this place from other countries, and at the same time, it also wants people in the country who are dissatisfied with Gomez to continue to lurk and obey their own control after seeing Spain's support.

These are all the things he has brought to continue to help, in dealing with the interference of the United States and other European countries in Venezuelan affairs and oil, as well as domestic rule, and at this point, he has indeed done a very good job, even allowing Dia Si admired him very much, but his admiration could not alleviate his worries, or even the worries of the entire country of Mexico.

Mexico has a narrow terrain with a large north and a large south. The north is close to the powerful United States, and the south is close to some small countries supported by the United States, such as Panama, Honduras, Nicaragua, etc. These are all factors that make Mexico always feel that it is surrounded by the United States. Surrounded by the United States, the U.S. Navy is far from comparable to that of Mexico. Although the U.S. Army is small, it is extremely well-prepared. Moreover, more than one-third of the army of hundreds of thousands is deployed in The U.S.-Mexico border is not even one-fifth of it in the Canadian direction in the north. You have to know that compared with the U.S. border. Mexico is more than twice the size of Canada.

It can be seen from this that the United States is more worried about Mexico than Canada, or that it has the intention to invade. The navy and army are not as good as the United States, and in terms of population, Mexico is only half of the United States. None, so he is even more worried about the United States. Moreover, he had only overthrown the rule of Ferrio Díaz in 1910. Therefore, in Mexico, the opposition he encountered was naturally not half weaker than Gomez, and was even more difficult. And it is precisely because of this that he formed the current new triangle of Spanish-Mongolian allies with the support and supervision of Gomez and Colombian President Ramon Gonzalez Valencia. At the same time, he also formed a new triangle of allies in the Caribbean. The three major powers against the United States.

It is precisely because of this that, like Gomez, he is extremely envious of the Spanish fleet now displayed in front of him. If such a fleet belongs to Mexico, no, if there are two such fleets, The fleets are deployed in the Gulf of Mexico to protect Mexico's oil industry, and another fleet is deployed in the Pacific. Then, by then, the United States will not be so contemptuous of Mexico.

He thought about how in the last century the United States had cut large chunks of Mexican territory from Mexico, like cutting cheese, and this made him extremely angry both physically and mentally. (To be continued...)
