In the port of Havana, there are many figures, and some buildings of the battleship Maine, which was sitting on the bottom due to the explosion, are still exposed on the water. However, on the exposed buildings of the Maine, the investigation team from the United States is conducting an investigation.

"Quick, pull up."

A naval officer who was pulling the rope immediately shouted after feeling the rope moving. Then he and several other officers immediately pulled the rope up. Under the rope, a man in a wetsuit and a diving helmet was pulled. come up.

"Colonel Melville, how are you?"

Before the man could take off his diving suit, a large group of naval officers gathered around to ask questions.

"Wait until I take off well."

The Melville major took off his heavy diving suit and helmet before speaking. "I observed the blast wound on the Maine, and the ship's side was showing signs of overturning."

"Okay, let's talk about it later."

Colonel Jowan Lloyd, who led the investigation, stopped the Navy's chief engineer from speaking.

Colonel Lloyd opened his mouth after taking the man to an uninhabited corner. "Okay, Melville, we can talk now."

"I observed that the explosion gap on the Maine's side was turned outward, indicating that the explosion of the Maine came from the inside of the ship. The explosion point was in the coal seam warehouse, which is adjacent to the ammunition warehouse, so it is very likely that the explosion was caused by the ammunition warehouse. , and the explosion of the ammunition bunker may also have been caused by the spontaneous combustion of thermal coal in the coal bunker."

Melville is worthy of being the chief engineer of the U.S. Navy. After some investigation, he has enough judgment on the explosion of the Maine. Speaking of spontaneous combustion of coal seams, this is nothing new for the US Navy. The US Navy has had several warship thermal coal spontaneous combustion incidents, and the design of the Maine did not take this into account. The gap between the ammunition bunker and the coal bunker is only Separated by a warehouse wall, if the coal bunker has spontaneous combustion, it is very easy to lead to the ammunition warehouse, which should be caused by unreasonable design.

After hearing Melville's judgment, Colonel Lloyd frowned. "Is this your judgment?"

"Yes, based on my years of experience, that's how it turned out."

After hearing Melville's words, Colonel Lloyd immediately retorted, "No, this result must be revised."

"what?"

Colonel Lloyd stared at each other and said word by word. "I said the results had to be revised, that the Maine could not be an explosion of an ammunition depot caused by spontaneous combustion of a coal bunker, but an accident caused by a mine exploding from the outside."

"But if you modify the result in this way, it will be discovered. The Spaniards only need to look at the damage of the Maine, and they will come to the same conclusion as me."

Obviously, this Melville should be in a technical position for a long time, so everything is simple.

"So what, who would listen to a loser's defense. Besides, this time our investigation has to be caused by a mine exploding from outside, which is not just our Navy's expectation, but also the government's and the American public's expectation. We just need to As an excuse, we don’t need to care about what the real results look like. If someone really investigates other results in the future, we can just say the mistake. Anyway, Cuba will be under our country’s control by then, so you can say whatever you want. "

After being given a political education by Colonel Lloyd, Melville, the chief engineer of the United States, listened.

"Okay, Colonel Lloyd, I'll write my report as a mine that sank the Maine."

"Very good, the result of this matter is like this, we only need to submit this report. In fact, to investigate here, we only need to pretend to be on the line, no matter what the outcome of this matter, the Spaniards must pay the price , they took too much money from us."

Just as the two were negotiating, they only heard the subordinate's voice from the side. "Colonel Lloyd, can you come over here. Here are some Spaniards who said they wanted to send people to help us investigate the cause of the Maine explosion."

Hearing the subordinate's words, Colonel Lloyd answered immediately. "Damn, tell the Spaniards to investigate the Maine bombing, and we in the US Navy will do it on our own, without their help, so they can leave."

The U.S. Navy officer who received the order immediately refused the Spaniard's boarding, and this scene was seen by everyone.

In a room in the port, Weiler, the governor of Cuba, saw this from a window.

"It looks like these Americans don't want our people to get close to the broken ship."

"Yes, Your Excellency, these Americans are really hateful. Do they think we don't know what they are doing to support the rebels. The rebels have become active again in the past two weeks. Combined with the attitude of the Americans, I am a little worried. "

The speaker is the garrison commander, General Morrow Revely. The general in charge of military command is the most sensitive to the activities of the rebels. The activities of the rebels in the past two weeks and the attitude of the Americans have made him worried. reason.

"It's not just you, I'm also worried about these Americans. The day before yesterday, Depp, the ambassador to the United States, had someone bring a letter saying that the United States has a very bad attitude towards the kingdom, and the media and newspapers are fueling the flames, and it is very likely that military tactics will be provoked. ."

As Cuban officials across the sea from the United States, they feel more about the news from the United States than they do from home, so some things are judged one step faster than they are from home.

And Governor Wirral's words made General Rifley frown. "If we provoke military means, then in the navy, we are too far apart. I wonder if there is any domestic solution?"

Well~www.mtlnovel.com~ Even General Rafley, who was born in the army, knows the sea gap between the two countries.

Weiler did not answer the naval question that General Rifley was worried about, but instead asked another question.

"The problem at sea is left to the Prime Minister and Admiral Shelvella. Now we need to consider the problem on land. If the US troops land in Cuba, where are they likely to land, and how can we prevent them. In addition, we also have to deal with the rebels. There must be no vigilance, sufficient pressure must be ensured, and the rebels must not be given a chance to strengthen themselves."

"But in this way, our country has lost control of the sea. In terms of Cuba's narrow terrain, our army has no way to hold it."

Facing the still somewhat stubborn General Rivley, Weiler planned to provide some news to stabilize his heart. Although this matter is still in a state of secrecy, it is still necessary to reveal some words to myself.

"Don't worry, Rafley, the Prime Minister and the others will have a solution. At least we won't completely lose control of the sea."

Weiler's obvious hint reassured General Riveley a lot, but he also had doubts, what method did the Prime Minister and the others use to narrow the strength gap with the US Navy, which country was it, and was it feasible?
