After Germany and Spain made the sale of the Philippines public, it caused an uproar around the world. Among them, the United States, which had already regarded the Philippines as its own, reacted most fiercely.
The New York Times published a long comment on this, saying that this was a very bad agreement. The decadent Spanish settlement sold off one of the only two chairs, but it was sold by the stupid Germans who had just become rich and wanted to show off their appearance.
The boy was treated as a treasure, and the two countries staged a farce.
Of course, no matter how sarcastic the New York Times is, it still cannot change the fact that Germany has purchased the Philippines.
Of course, for the U.S. government preparing for war, they also feel the urgency. This time can no longer be delayed. They continue to wait for all aspects to be prepared, and they still don’t know what will happen.
So on July 14, the 12th day after the explosion of the Maine, the U.S. Navy investigation team announced the results of the investigation. The Maine encountered a mine that exploded from the outside, triggering the explosion of the battleship's ammunition depot, causing the explosion of the Maine.
The tragedy of Yinhao.
This U.S. Navy investigation report was reported by newspapers across the United States. This attitude of pointing the finger at Spain as the murderer made the American people hate Spain to the highest level. The slogan of revenge resounded throughout the land.
Subsequently, the U.S. Congress directly passed an emergency bill requiring Spain to stop its counterinsurgency war in Cuba within one week.
Such a direct request for a ceasefire from other countries also shows that the United States is impatient to start a war. Perhaps in the eyes of the masters of the U.S. Congress, this ultimatum will make Spanish dogs jump over the wall and do things that make them angry.
Unfortunately, the Congressmen were disappointed. On the fifth day, the Spanish government issued a statement accepting the U.S. proposal and agreeing to stop fighting the rebels in Cuba.
In order to buy time to prepare for war, Spanish officials did not care about face.
Of course, the reason why Spain is so low-profile is because the discussion on the purchase of ships has not yet been completed.
For Prime Minister Castillo and others, the purchase of warships negotiated with Italy has been a long time coming. Because the talks were almost done, then Italy suddenly appeared willing to sell two Venetian-class cruisers to Spain.
.
This sudden increase caught Spain by surprise, because these two Venetian-class ships are no longer considered advanced and have been in service for more than ten years. Admiral Cervera does not want these two ships to be patrolling, but he wants to refuse
At that time, he was stopped by the Prime Minister. The reason is very simple. At this time, Italy was the only one that could purchase combat-capable warships on a large scale.
Although Spain can also purchase warships from other countries, they will not sell the ships and send mercenaries who can operate them, so Spain can only continue to talk to Italy about purchasing ships.
