Chapter 108 The prelude to the Caribbean War
Chapter 108 The prelude to the Caribbean War
If you have enough understanding of European colonial history and geography, you will know that since Columbus discovered the New World, the Spaniards quickly defeated the Indican and Maya of the American continent with the advantages of the American continent with the advantages of its maritime power.People and Aztecs occupy the Sino -US and South America, which are called Latin America today, and plus a lot of wealth.
Relying on these wealth plundered from the New Continent, the Spaniards developed rapidly and reached its heyday in the 16th century.
At that time, King Carlos I of Spain said: “On my territory, the sun never falls.” The Spanish Empire was also called the sun without falling.
For the Spanish Empire at the time, the most important economic life pulse was naturally the New World route. With the construction of a large number of plantations on the rich land in the Americas, colonists who lacked labor have plundered a large number of population from Africa, so the most in historyThe infamous triangle trade was born.
However, whether it is the New Continental route discovered by Columbus or the subsequent triangular trading routes, after arriving in Europe or Africa, the two routes finally arrived in the Caribbean region.
It is precisely because of such an important geographical location that the Caribbean region has become the most important trade portal of the Americas.
It can be said that as long as the Caribbean region is controlled, it is equivalent to controlling this golden route, which can control the entire American continent.
“Now the entire Caribbean region is basically controlled by the Spaniards. Cuba, Puerto Rico, San Doming, Barbados and other islands are in the hands of the Spanish. If we want to control the entire Caribbean region, we can only grab the Spaniards through war through war.Set this place. “On the wall of the Governor’s Office, there was a map of the Labin region of the Caribbean Sea on the wall of the Governor’s Office. Beckett was holding a long stick to stand in front of the map to explain.
“Although the Spanish invincible fleet was defeated by us, they still have strong strength in New Spain. In our current strength, they may not be able to defeat them.” Governor Swan knew the situation very well, so he was not optimistic aboutThis plan.
As the Governor of the Royal Port, he knows that the British forces in the Caribbean Sea are not enough to defeat the Spaniards, let alone seize the entire Caribbean region through a war.
You should know that although Spain was defeated by Britain at this time, it was still the old -fashioned Nikko Empire. Although the loss of the invincible fleet has greatly weakened its maritime power, it has not caused a great decline in its national strength.
Relying on New Spanish colonies in the Americas, the Spanish Empire was still strong.
The Britain had to wait until the end of the seven -year war of the first World War in the real sense, and then it really surpassed Spain in the real sense and completely laid its own maritime hegemony.
It is now more than ten years since the war that affects Europe, Africa, America, and Asia.
But Chen Mo is obviously impossible to wait so long, and this does not meet his interests. After all, he builds his own forces by controlling Britain’s power in the Caribbean region, not to help the British control the Americas.
So in the face of Governor Swan’s doubts, Chen Mo just looked at Baker and asked him: “How did the fleet prepare?”
“At present, the fleet of East India has gathered, a total of ten third -class battleships, 30 fifth -class cruise ships, and fifty light cruise ships. They will arrive in the Caribbean from Africa a week.” Becket repliedWith Chen Mo’s problem, the expression on his face was full of pride.

Such a huge fleet is even comparable to a navy. Even if East India is indeed rich, it is not easy to have such a huge fleet.
Starting from Chen Mo, the senior management of East India was turned into a vampire four years ago, the entire East India company fell into his control and began a large -scale shipbuilding plan.
The blood sail was also built at this time, and was one of the first batch of warships in the entire shipbuilding plan.
In the following three years, East India Company has built more than 100 new ships in areas controlled by the world one after another. These vessels have been handed over to experienced captains and allocated all over the world to maintain East India to maintain East IndiaThe scope and interests of the company are also accumulating experience.
Now this fleet has accumulated enough experience, so they received a convening order three months ago. After gathering in Africa, they were placed in the Caribbean Sea.
“Such a huge fleet …” Governor Swan was shocked, and he was also worried about the powerful strength of East India. He was worried that East India, who had such a powerful strength, betrayed Britain.
The emotional change of Governor Swan naturally could not hide Chen Mo, but he was not in a hurry to deal with Governor Swan, but asked him: “Governor, with this fleet, plus the flying Dutch and the DutchDo you still think we can’t defeat the Spaniards now? ”
When he heard Chen Mo asking this, Governor Swan could only tell the truth to the truth: “If there is such a fleet, you can indeed defeat the Spaniards and control the entire Caribbean region.”
Governor Swan made Chen Mo laugh. He said to Baker: “Formulate the offensive plan, and start action when the fleet arrives.”
Having said that he also looked at Governor Swan and said to him, “Please ask Governor Toswan in logistics supply. I don’t want to have a problem in this kind of thing.”
“Please rest assured that Royal Port will provide sufficient logistics support for this war.” Although he was worried, Governor Swan decided to fully support the war.
He also understands that if he can control the entire Caribbean region through this war, it will also be of great benefits for Britain.
“Very good, sir, then I wish us a smooth plan this time and can successfully control the entire Caribbean!” Chen Mo said he raised his wine glass.
The seniors of the East India Company in the office also raised the glass, and the red wine liquid in the wine glass exuded a charming fragrance.
In such an atmosphere, Governor Swan also raised the glass. Although he was still at ease of East India, he still wished the war with others on this occasion.
Just when Governor Swan drank the wine in the wine glass, he suddenly realized that the taste of this red wine was a bit strange, and it seemed to have a strange sweet fragrance.
There is no doubt about him, and I think this may be just a kind of spice added in red wine.
