La Spagna si era trasformata da alleato della Gran Bretagna nella guerra della prima coalizione in nemico nel 1796. Per questo motivo la presenza di un potente squadrone spagnolo a Manila minacciava notevolmente la flotta annualmente diretta verso la Cina dall'Inghilterra ed i convogli provenienti da Macao che erano tutti di vitale importanza per l'economia inglese.
