Lieutenant General Cedela, who received the order to attack, is worthy of being Spain's most capable naval admiral. After replenishing supplies, he led the rescue fleet to quietly leave the Serbian port on a dark moonlit night on August 27. When the next morning came, many people were shocked by the empty Serbian port.
Of course, the news that the Spanish rescue formation had set off also cheered up the waiting US Navy. After receiving the news, the U.S. fleet changed its lazy attitude of basking in the sun at the Jacksonville naval port, and immediately dispatched a large number of fast cruisers to densely cover the Caribbean waters, trying to detect news about the Spanish fleet.
Of course, in addition to these warships, the U.S. Navy also hired many civilian ships to conduct patrols just in case. Although these ships are not fast, they can at least know whether their enemies are coming.
A series of measures taken by the U.S. Navy have laid an airtight net in the Caribbean. As long as Spanish warships arrive, they will be discovered.
The next work of the U.S. Navy seems to be just waiting for the Spanish Navy to appear.
Five days...ten days...half a month...twenty days, such a long time, there was no news at all about the Spanish fleet that had launched. This made many American naval officers and soldiers wonder, is the Spanish fleet still sailing with sails?
But since the Spanish fleet has not yet appeared, what else can the U.S. Navy do but continue to wait.
However, the navy can wait, but the government cannot afford to wait. Because at this time, rumors came out of nowhere that the Spanish fleet did not go to the Caribbean at all, but followed the Icelandic route and came directly to the east coast of the United States.
Look at this rumor, there is no common sense at all. How can Spain avoid being discovered by taking the Iceland route, and the wind and waves there are rough, and the road there is bumpy, and there is no need to repair it, just to carry out a wave of suicide attacks on the east coast?
Aren't you afraid that the U.S. fleet in the Caribbean will go north to catch turtles in a jar?
However, this rumor is full of flaws, but no one believes it, and it is spread from person to person, and the taste changes after it is spread.
From the beginning, the Spanish fleet came to the east coast to carry out (suicide) attacks, and then the Spanish fleet also mixed British, German, and Russian warships, hoping to destroy major ports on the east coast and block U.S. foreign trade. Then, the Spanish fleet mixed the warships of major European countries to form a super fleet. It also brought an army of 100,000 people and wanted to occupy major ports on the east coast.
At this time, the spread of rumors became more and more intense, causing panic in the port cities on the east coast, especially in the northern cities on the east coast such as Portland, Boston, Philadelphia, New York and other port cities.
So where is the Spanish fleet that the U.S. Navy is concerned about?
The Cape Verde Islands are an archipelago in the North Atlantic Ocean. The Cape Verde Islands are more than 500 kilometers east of Cape Verde, the westernmost point on the African continent, and form a strategic transportation hub between Europe, South America, and Africa.
