Duel o Bouvet a me Meteora. ʻO ka pae hope o ke kaua - ua haʻalele ka Bouvet i pōʻino i ke kahua kaua ma lalo o ka holo ʻana, alualu ʻia e ka moku pū Meteor.

ʻO nā hana naval i ka wā o ke Kaua Franco-German o 1870–1871 he mau hanana liʻiliʻi wale nō ia. ʻO kekahi o ia mau mea he hoʻokuʻi kokoke i Havana, Cuba, i kēlā manawa ma Sepania, i hana ʻia i Nowemapa 1870 ma waena o ka moku Prussian Meteor a me ka moku pana Farani Bouvet.

ʻO ke kaua lanakila me ʻAuseturia i ka makahiki 1866 a me ka hoʻokumu ʻia ʻana o ka Hui Kelemania ʻĀkau, ua lilo ʻo Prussia i moho kūlohelohe no ka hoʻohui ʻana o Kelemania āpau. ʻElua wale nō pilikia i kū i ke ala: ʻo ka manaʻo o ka Kelemania Hema, ka hapa nui o nā ʻāina Katolika, ʻaʻole makemake i ka hui hou ʻana, a me Farani, ka mea makaʻu e hoʻonāukiuki i ke koena ʻEulopa. Ke makemake nei e pepehi i ʻelua manu me ka pōhaku hoʻokahi, ʻo ke Kuhina Nui o Prussian, ʻo ka Reich Chancellor Otto von Bismarck e hiki mai ana, ua hoʻonāukiuki ʻo Farani i ka hana kūʻē iā Prussia ma ke ʻano ʻaʻohe koho o nā ʻāina Kelemania Hema e hui pū me lākou, a laila e hāʻawi i ka hoʻokō. no ka hoʻolālā hui ʻana o ke kuhina. ʻO ka hopena, i ke kaua, i hoʻolaha ʻia ma Iulai 19, 1870, ua kūʻē ʻia ʻo Farani e kahi kokoke i Kelemania a pau, ʻoiai ʻaʻole i hui maoli ʻia.

Ua hoʻoholo koke ʻia ke kaua ma ka ʻāina, kahi i loaʻa ai i ka pūʻali koa Prussia a me kona mau hoa pili ka pōmaikaʻi, e like me ka nui.

a hoʻonohonoho, ma luna o ka pūʻali Farani. Ma ke kai, ua kū'ē ke kūlana - ua loaʻa i ka Farani ka pōmaikaʻi nui, ke kāohi nei i nā awa Prussian ma ke Kai ʻĀkau a me Baltic mai ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kaua. ʻAʻole naʻe i pili kēia ʻoiaʻiʻo i ke ʻano o ka hoʻouka kaua ʻana, koe wale nō ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻana i hoʻokahi mahele mua a me 4 mau māhele landwehr (ʻo ia hoʻi, ka pale aupuni) no ka pale ʻana i ke kahakai Prussian. Ma hope o ka pio ʻana o ka poʻe Farani ma Sedana a ma hope o ka hopu ʻia ʻana o Napoleon III ponoʻī (Sepatemaba 2, 1870), ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia kēia paʻa, a hoʻihoʻi ʻia nā pūʻali koa i ko lākou mau awa home i hiki ai i ko lākou poʻe holo ke hoʻoikaika i nā pūʻali koa e hakakā nei ma ka ʻāina.

Kūʻaihewa

Ua kūkulu ʻia ʻo Bouvet (nā ʻāpana kaikuahine - Guichen a me Bruat) ma ke ʻano he 2nd class notice (Aviso de 1866ème classe) no ke kumu o ka lawelawe ʻana i nā kolone, kahi mamao mai nā wai maoli. ʻO kā lākou mea hoʻolālā ʻo Vesignier a me La Selle. Ma muli o nā ʻokoʻa like ʻole a me nā ʻenehana, ua helu pinepine ʻia ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he pū, a ma ka palapala Anglo-Saxon he sloop. Ma muli o kāna kumu, he moku wikiwiki loa me ka nui o ka hull a me ka maikaʻi o ka holo ʻana. Ma hope koke iho o ka pau ʻana o ke kūkulu ʻana, i Iune XNUMX, ua hoʻouna ʻia ʻo ia i nā wai Mekiko, kahi i lilo ai ʻo ia i ʻāpana o ka pūʻali koa i hoʻonoho ʻia ma laila, e kākoʻo ana i nā hana a ka French Expeditionary Force.

Ma hope o ka pau ʻana o ka "hakakā Mexican" ua hoʻouna ʻia ʻo Bouvet i nā wai Haitian, kahi i manaʻo ʻia e pale aku i nā pono Farani, inā pono, i ka wā o ke kaua kīwila e hoʻomau nei ma ka ʻāina. Mai Malaki 1869, noho mau ʻo ia ma Martinique, kahi i hopu ʻia ai ʻo ia e ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kaua Franco-Prussian.

ʻO ka Meteor kekahi o nā waʻa pū ʻewalu Chamäleon (Camäleon, e like me E. Gröner) i kūkulu ʻia no ka Navy Prussian ma 1860–1865. He ʻano hoʻonui lākou o 15 mau waʻa pū Jäger-class i hoʻohālike ʻia ma muli o nā "mokukaua Crimean" Pelekania i kūkulu ʻia i ka wā o ke Kaua Crimean (1853-1856). E like me lākou, ua kauoha ʻia nā waʻa pū Chamaleon no nā hana pāpaʻu. ʻO kā lākou kumu nui, ʻo ia ke kākoʻo ʻana i ko lākou mau pūʻali koa ʻāina ponoʻī a me ka luku ʻana i nā pahu hopu ma kahakai, no laila he pūʻali koa liʻiliʻi akā kūkulu maikaʻi ʻia lākou, kahi e hiki ai iā lākou ke lawe i nā mea kaua ikaika loa no kahi ʻāpana o kēia nui. I mea e hiki ai ke hana pono ma nā kai pāpaʻu, he palahalaha ko lākou, akā naʻe, e hōʻino nui ana i ko lākou pono kai ma nā wai ākea. ʻAʻole ikaika ka wikiwiki o kēia mau ʻāpana, no ka mea, ʻoiai ma ka manaʻo hiki iā lākou ke hōʻea i 9 knots, me ka nalu nui aʻe, no ka maikaʻi ʻole o ke kai, ua hāʻule i ka nui o 6-7 knots.

Ma muli o nā pilikia kālā, ua hoʻolōʻihi ʻia ka hoʻopau ʻana i ka hana ma ka Meteor a hiki i 1869. Ma hope o ke komo ʻana o ka waʻa pū, ua hoʻouna koke ʻia i ka moku Karipiano i Kepakemapa, kahi i manaʻo ʻia e hōʻike i nā pono o Kelemania. I ke kauwela o 1870, ua hana ʻo ia ma nā kai o Venezuelan, a ʻo kona hele ʻana, ma waena o nā mea ʻē aʻe, e hōʻoiaʻiʻo i ke aupuni kūloko e uku i kā lākou mau kuleana i ke aupuni Prussian ma mua.
