[h1]El Tercer Imperio Mexicano[/h1] [b]Marshall Islands[/b] The Mexicans were caught off guard by the sudden approach of an American fleet. Immediately upon viewing them, the Mexicans on board moved to defensive positions, fearing a battle this far out to sea and this soon in their departure. However, it soon hit them, the UTA fleet was in no way behaving agressivly, no, in fact, they offered a proposal, and the Mexicans were stunned to hear it. "Am...am I hearing this right?" Admiral Iglesias asked the General standing next to him, "Why would the UTA ever wish to aid us?" General Julilo Moreno, now a grizzled man who at the start of his military career fought in the Second Mexican-American War, was just as speechless as his companion. He appeared to be deep in thought, before he spoke once more. "Tell them we accept their offer" "Sir...?" Admiral Iglesias started before Moreno simply silenced him. "If this attack is to be sucessful than yes. Our army is strong and armed with advanced equiptment, but the technological power of the UTA is exactly what we need to really cement a victory. So, we will accept their offer, and they will help with the assault. "Yes sir," the Admiral replied before going to return the message to the UTA [hider= To The United Territories of America] It is true that our nations have been bitter rivals since almost our inceptions; and yet, in the face of an evil beyond either of us, it is imparative we put that history behind us, even if only temporarily, to face something more important. If you will join us, your power will be apreciated. We are heading for Sri Lanka at the moment to meet with agents of the USAE, and potentially another great power to aid us in the war.[/hider] [b]Mexico City, Mexico Province[/b] "So the Greeks want an Atlantic route?" Bureau Head Abarca asked to his advisors as they all nodded slowly. Abarca snarlled as he paced up and down his office. "We cannot simply abandon the plan, not with us being so close to Sri Lanka, and with a new ally in the Pacific." Abarca continued angrily "Even if we do break through the Caliphate's Blocade of Gilbraltar, we have the damned GEC patroling the Mediterranian; its simply not possible." "Not by conventional means, but maybe we could try something different," Abarca had a smile on his face as he immediatly contacted the Greek King. [hider= To The Kingdom of Hellenes] Greetings, oh Honorable King of the Hellenic people. We, the humble people of Mexico have a proposal. We took the route of the Pacific for many reasons, but the most significant being the sheer difficulty of traversing with the Mediterranian Sea with Caliphate Blockade and the GEC threatening to detain our ships. So we have an idea for getting to Cyprus. We will attack the blockade and make our way to Algeria. You will already have a small fleet there to pretend to detain us, and take our ships back to Cyprus for inspection, keeping our ships out of GEC hands, and allowing us to set up our base. With gods grace this ruse will work and we can begin the attacks on the Levant and Anatolia as soon as possible ---- Nicolas Abarca, Head of the Mexican Bureau of Defence, Gloria a Don Salazar, La Eglesia Catholica, y La Eglesia Greiega Orthodoxa [/hider] [b]Belize City, Guatemala Province [/b] With the Request sent, the Mexicans launched a 30 ship fleet, consisting of 10 Destroyers, 5 Frigates, 10 Cruisers and 5 Submarines, towards the Strait of Gibraltar, to make good on the Greek's request, hoping for them to make good on theirs.
